The simplicity of hard spheres as a model system is deceptive. Although the particles
interact solely through volume exclusion, that nevertheless suffices for a wealth of static and …

This perspective article reviews arguments that glass-forming liquids are different from those
of standard liquid-state theory, which typically have a viscosity in the mPa· s range and …

We combine the swap Monte Carlo algorithm to long multi-CPU molecular dynamics
simulations to analyze the equilibrium relaxation dynamics of model supercooled liquids …

We provide a theoretical description of dynamical heterogeneities in glass-forming liquids,
based on the premise that relaxation occurs via local rearrangements coupled by elasticity …

We study the role of elasticity-induced facilitation on the dynamics of glass-forming liquids by
a coarse-grained two-dimensional model in which local relaxation events, taking place by …

In supercooled liquids, dynamical facilitation refers to a phenomenon where microscopic
motion begets further motion nearby, resulting in spatially heterogeneous dynamics. This is …

The yielding transition in athermal complex fluids can be interpreted as an absorbing phase
transition between an elastic, absorbing state with high mesoscopic degeneracy and a …

While deeply supercooled liquids exhibit divergent viscosity and increasingly
heterogeneous dynamics as the temperature drops, their structure shows only seemingly …

Upon approaching the glass transition, the relaxation of supercooled liquids is controlled by
activated processes, which become dominant at temperatures below the so-called …

We study the glass transition by exploring a broad class of kinetic rules that can significantly
modify the normal dynamics of supercooled liquids while maintaining thermal equilibrium …
