Structure and dynamics of the t154 lattice glass

TL;DR

This paper investigates the static and dynamic properties of the t154 lattice glass model under various boundary conditions, revealing that its dynamics are governed by structural correlations.

Contribution

It provides a comprehensive analysis of the t154 lattice glass, including static and dynamic behaviors under different boundary conditions, which was not previously explored.

Findings

Dynamics are governed by structural correlations.

Point-to-set correlation and relaxation times vary with boundary conditions.

Results support a structural origin of the glassy dynamics.

Abstract

We revisit the $t154$ variant of the Biroli-Mezard lattice glass, complementing previous studies by studying statics and dynamics under periodic boundary conditions as well as systems confined in cavities with amorphous boundaries. We compute the point-to-se correlation and relaxation times under the different boundary conditions. Results point to a scenario with dynamics ruled by structural correlations.
