On the mean field approach to glassy systems

preprint1997arXivOpen access

Abstract

In these lectures I will study some properties that are shared by many glassy systems. I will shown how some of these properties can be understood in the framework of the mean field approach based on the replica method and I will discuss which are the difficulties which we have to face when we apply the replica method to realistic short range models. We finally present a partially successfully application of the replica method to soft sphere glasses.
