Abstract

We study theoretically and numerically a family of multipoint dynamic susceptibilities that quantify the strength and characteristic length scales of dynamic heterogeneities in glass-forming materials. We use general theoretical arguments (fluctuation-dissipation relations and symmetries of relevant dynamical field theories) to relate the sensitivity of averaged two-time correlators to temperature and density to spontaneous fluctuations of the local dynamics. Our theoretical results are then compared to molecular dynamics simulations of the Newtonian, Brownian, and Monte Carlo dynamics of two representative glass-forming liquids, a fragile binary Lennard-Jones mixture, and a model for the strong glass-former silica. We justify in detail the claim made by Berthier et al. [Science 310, 1797 (2005)] that the temperature dependence of correlation functions allows one to extract useful information on dynamic length scales in glassy systems. We also discuss some subtle issues associated with the choice of microscopic dynamics and of statistical ensemble through conserved quantities, which are found to play an important role in determining dynamic correlations.
