  "abstract": "We use computer simulations to investigate the extended phase diagram of a supercooled liquid linearly coupled to a quenched reference configuration. An extensive finite-size scaling analysis demonstrates the existence of a random-field Ising model (RFIM) critical point and of a first-order transition line, in agreement with field-theoretical approaches. The dynamics in the vicinity of this critical point resembles the peculiar activated scaling of RFIM-like systems, and the overlap autocorrelation displays a logarithmic stretching. Our study firmly establishes the RFIM criticality in three-dimensional supercooled liquids at equilibrium.",
