Phys. Rev. E 80, 060104(R) (2009) [4 pages]Ideal glass transition in a simple two-dimensional lattice model
We present a simple lattice model showing a glassy behavior. R matrix analysis predicts critical termination of the supercooled fluid branch at density ρg=0.1717. This prediction is confirmed by dynamical numerical simulations, showing power-law divergences of relaxation time τ1/2, as well as the four-susceptibility χ4 peak’s location and height exactly at the predicted density. The power-law divergence of χ4 continues up to χ4 as high as 104. Finite-size scaling study reveals the divergence of the correlation length accompanying the transition. © 2009 The American Physical Society URL:
