Point-to-set correlations and instantons

Sho Yaida

Published 2013-11-27Version 1

For a generic many-body system, we define a soft point-to-set correlation function. We then show that this function accepts a representation in terms of an effective overlap field theory. In particular, instantons in this effective field theory encode point-to-set correlations for supercooled liquids.
