The statistical mechanics is performed directly in this encoding. The theory provides, without free parameters, an explanation of the glass transition phenomenology, including the identification of two different temperatures, $T_g$ and $T_k$, the first associated with jamming and the second associated with the appearance of a crystalline ground state at very low temperatures. We also describe how the very slow glassy dynamics can be estimated from this statistical description.
