Abstract:
We present results reflecting the analogies between the Kob-Andersen model and other glassy systems. Studying the stability of the blocked configurations above and below the transition we also give arguments that support their relevance for the glassy behavior of the model. However, we find, surprisingly, that the organization of the phase space of the system is different from the well known organization of other mean field spin glasses and structural glasses.
