## Abstract

The characterization of the formation mechanisms of amorphous solids is a large avenue for research, since understanding its non-Arrhenius behavior is challenging to overcome. In this context, we present one path toward modeling the diffusive processes in supercooled liquids near glass transition through a class of non-homogeneous continuity equations, providing a consistent theoretical basis for the physical interpretation of its non-Arrhenius behavior. More precisely, we obtain the generalized drag and diffusion coefficients that allow us to model a wide range of non-Arrhenius processes. This provides a reliable measurement of the degree of fragility of the system and an estimation of the fragile-to-strong transition in glass-forming liquids, as well as a generalized Stokes-Einstein equation, leading to a better understanding of the classical and quantum effects on the dynamics of non-additive stochastic systems.
