Ideal glass transition in a simple 2D lattice model

preprint2009arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present a simple lattice model showing a glassy behavior. RR matrix analysis predicts critical termination of the super-cooled fluid branch at density ρg=0.1717ρ_g=0.1717. This prediction is confirmed by dynamical numerical simulations, showing power-law divergences of relaxation time τ1/2τ_{1/2}, as well as the 4-susceptibility χ4χ_4 peak's location and height exactly at the predicted density. The power-law divergence of χ4χ_4 continues up to χ4χ_4 as high as 10410^4. Finite-size scaling study reveals divergence of correlation length accompanying the transition.
