Abstract
Structural glasses form through various out-of-equilibrium processes, including temperature quenches, rapid compression (crunches), and shear. Although each of these processes should be formally understandable within the recently formulated dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) of glasses, the numerical tools needed to solve the DMFT equations up to the relevant physical regime do not yet exist. In this context, numerical simulations of minimally structured (and therefore mean-field-like) model glass formers can aid the search for and understanding of such solutions, thanks to their ability to disentangle structural from dimensional effects. We study here the infinite-range Mari-Kurchan model under simple out-of-equilibrium processes, and we compare results with the random Lorentz gas [J. Phys. A 55, 334001 (2022)10.1088/1751-8121/ac7f06]. Because both models are mean-field-like and formally equivalent in the limit of infinite spatial dimensions, robust features are expected to appear in the DMFT as well. The comparison provides insight into temperature and density onsets, memory, as well as anomalous relaxation. This work also further enriches the algorithmic understanding of the jamming density.
