Dynamics and thermodynamic properties of this model can be computed with arbitrary precision even at low temperatures. A degenerate disordered ground state and logarithmic statistics for the energy distribution are the landscape signatures of strong liquid behavior. Differences from fragile liquid properties are attributed to the presence of a discrete energy scale, provided by the particle bonds, and to the intrinsic degeneracy of topologically disordered networks.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2005-10-04T17:04:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "energy landscape", "simple model", "strong liquid behavior", "discrete energy scale", "degenerate disordered ground state" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
