On the solution of a `solvable' model of an ideal glass of hard spheres displaying a jamming transition (1011.5080v2)
Published 23 Nov 2010 in cond-mat.dis-nn and cond-mat.stat-mech
Abstract: We discuss the analytical solution through the cavity method of a mean field model that displays at the same time an ideal glass transition and a set of jamming points. We establish the equations describing this system, and we discuss some approximate analytical solutions and a numerical strategy to solve them exactly. We compare these methods and we get insight into the reliability of the theory for the description of finite dimensional hard spheres.
