4. IVW2005, TIFR, India Jan.11(2005)4 Thermal fluctuations are taken into account using the statistical sum with the GL energy in 2D (for simplicity) Ginzburg – Landau theory and the LLL approximation with variances

5. IVW2005, TIFR, India Jan.11(2005)5 Within the LLL approximation the gradient term is combined with the quadratic. Therefore without disorder physical quantities depend on a single parameter: Ruggeri, Thouless,1975

6. IVW2005, TIFR, India Jan.11(2005)6 Thermal fluctuations Vortex liquid 1. We constructed the Optimized gaussian series, which are convergent rather than asymptotic. Radius of convergence is Spinodal 2. Using gaussian approximation one finds that the solid becomes unstable at (spinodal). BR PRB60,4268 (1999) DPL, BR PRB65,024514(2001) Vortex Solid: 1. For the free energy we get to the required precision (.1%) at the two loop order (the IR divergencies due to “supersoft” phonons cancel exactly) :

7. IVW2005, TIFR, India Jan.11(2005)7 However it allowed us to verify unambiguously the validity of Borel- Pade method which provided a convergent scheme everywhere down to T=0. The melting is obtained by comparing liquid and solid free energy: DPL, BR, PRB, 2004. in 3D in 2D H T T/Tc Shibata et.al., PRB66,214518(02 )

8. IVW2005, TIFR, India Jan.11(2005)8 Point disorder, Unified ODO line, Kauzmann points 1. Disorder breaks the LLL scaling. Using perturbation around the zero disorder overcooled liquid and solid, we find that there is a single order – disorder line combining the melting line and the second peak line. Liquid gains more than solid from pinning and the line “curves down” at Kauzmann point in which the entropy jump vanishes. 2. The continuation of the “clean” melting line becomes a crossover (Hx) between liquid I and a viscous liquid II which we characterize as strongly correlated (deeply supercooled). Tricritical point is reinterpreted as a Kauzmann point. 3. In 3D the line has a “wiggle”.

Replica symmetry breaking solution means there is a hierarchy of relaxation times in dynamics (reflecting the logarithmically diverging energy barriers).

15. IVW2005, TIFR, India Jan.11(2005)15 Conclusion The LLL GL theory allows qualitative and quantitative comparison with experiment in a wide variety of type II materials in surprisingly wide range of fields and temperatures. It include the melting and the glass lines, in some cases magnetization and specific heat jumps and other quantities. The generic phase diagram contains four phases: liquid, solid, vortex glass and Bragg glass experimentally and theoretically in our approach. Divakar et al, PRL92,237004 (04) LaSCO
