Abstract
Starting from a microscopic model of liquids, we construct an effective theory of an overlap field through duplication of the system and coarse-graining. We then propose a recipe to extract a relaxation time and two characteristic length scales of a supercooled liquid from this effective field theory. Appealing to the Ginzburg-Landau-Wilson paradigm near the putative critical point, we further conclude that this effective field theory resides within the Ising universality class.
