Abstract
We analyze, using inhomogeneous mode-coupling theory, the critical scaling behavior of the dynamical susceptibility at a distance from continuous second-order glass transitions. We find that the dynamical correlation length behaves generically as and that the upper critical dimension is equal to six. More surprisingly, we find that grows with time as exactly at criticality. All of these results suggest a deep analogy between the glassy behavior of attractive colloids or randomly pinned supercooled liquids and that of the random field Ising model.
