The physics of the glass transition and amorphous materials continues to attract the attention
of a wide research community after decades of effort. Supercooled liquids and glasses have …

A remarkable feature of disordered solids distinct from crystals is the violation of the Debye
scaling law of the low-frequency vibrational density of states. Because the low-frequency …

The frequency scaling exponent of low-frequency excitations in microscopically small
glasses, which do not allow for the existence of waves (phonons), has been in the focus of …

Strange metal behavior is traditionally associated with an underlying putative quantum
critical point at zero temperature. However, in many correlated metals, eg, high-T c cuprate …

Structural defects control the kinetic, thermodynamic and mechanical properties of glasses.
For instance, rare quantum tunneling two-level systems (TLS) govern the physics of glasses …

Amorphous materials are also distinguished from crystals by their thermal properties. The
structural disorder seems to be responsible both for a significant increase in heat capacity …

The swap Monte Carlo algorithm introduces nonphysical dynamic rules to accelerate the
exploration of the configuration space of supercooled liquids. Its success raises deep …

Recent findings of structural glasses with extremely high kinetic and thermodynamic stability
have attracted much attention. The question has been raised as to whether the well-known …

Structural glasses display at low temperature a set of anomalies in thermodynamic
observables. A prominent example is the linear-in-temperature scaling of the specific heat …
