Critical slowing down dynamics of supercooled glass-forming liquids is usually understood at the mean-field level in the framework of mode coupling theory, providing a two-time relaxation scenario and power-law behaviors of the time correlation function at dynamic criticality. In this work we derive critical slowing down exponents of spin-glass models undergoing discontinuous transitions by computing their Gibbs free energy and connecting the dynamic behavior to static "in-state" properties. Both the spherical and Ising versions are considered and, in the simpler spherical case, a generalization to arbitrary schematic mode coupling kernels is presented. Comparison with dynamic results available in literature is performed. Analytical predictions for the Ising case are provided for any p.

Abstract
Critical slowing down dynamics of supercooled glass-forming liquids is usually understood at the mean-field level in the framework of mode coupling theory, providing a two-time relaxation scenario and power-law behaviors of the time correlation function at dynamic criticality. In this work we derive critical slowing down exponents of spin-glass models undergoing discontinuous transitions by computing their Gibbs free energy and connecting the dynamic behavior to static "in-state" properties. Both the spherical and Ising versions are considered and, in the simpler spherical case, a generalization to arbitrary schematic mode coupling kernels is presented. Comparison with dynamic results available in literature is performed. Analytical predictions for the Ising case are provided for any p.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
