Properties of the perturbative expansion around the mode-coupling dynamical transition in glasses

In this letter we show how to perform a systematic perturbative approach for the mode-coupling theory. The results coincide with those obtained via the replica approach. The upper critical dimension turns out to be always 8 and the correlations have a double pole in momentum space in perturbations theory. Non-perturbative effects are found to be very important. We suggest a possible framework to compute these effects.
