A formal theory of finding a nonlinear stochastic diffusion equation for density fluctuations in a suspension of colloidal hard spheres, which enables us to study the influence of solvent-mediated hydrodynamic interactions between particles as well as the direct interactions, is presented with...

A statistical-mechanical theory of slow dynamics near the glass transition in two kinds of glass-forming systems, (M) molecular systems and (S) suspensions of colloids, is presented from a unified point of view based on the Tokuyama–Mori projection operator method. The exact diffusion...
