Glassy behavior in an exactly solved spin system with a ferromagnetic transition.
We show that applying simple dynamical rules to Baxter's eight-vertex model leads to a system which resembles a glass-forming liquid. There are analogies with liquid, supercooled liquid, glassy, and crystalline states. The disordered phases exhibit strong dynamical heterogeneity at low temperat...
