Fluctuating nonlinear hydrodynamics does not support an ergodic-nonergodic transition

Despite its appeal, real and simulated glass forming systems do not undergo an ergodic-nonergodic (ENE) transition. We reconsider whether the fluctuating nonlinear hydrodynamics (FNH) model for this system, introduced by us in 1986, supports an ENE transition. Using nonperturbative arguments, with no reference to the hydrodynamic regime, we show that the FNH model does not support an ENE transition. Our results support the findings in the original paper. Assertions in the literature questioning the validity of the original work are shown to be in error.
