Abstract
We propose a computational strategy to quantify the temperature evolution of the timescales and length scales over which dynamic facilitation affects the relaxation dynamics of glass-forming liquids at low temperatures, which requires no assumption about the nature of the dynamics. In two glass models, we find that dynamic facilitation depends strongly on temperature, leading to a subdiffusive spreading of relaxation events which we characterize using a temperature-dependent dynamic exponent. We also establish that this temperature evolution represents a major contribution to the increase of the structural relaxation time.
