This thesis presents a theoretical analysis of the behavior of
glasses under external perturbations, i.e. compression and shear
straining. Written in a pedagogical style, it explains every facet
of the problem in detail, including many crucial steps that cannot
be found in the existing literature-making it particularly useful
for students and as an introduction to the subject of glassy
physics. In glassy systems the behavior under external compression
and shear-strain is quite peculiar. Many complex phenomena are
observed and grasping them fully would be a major step toward a
complete theory of the glass transition. This thesis makes
important advances in this direction, analyzing the behavior of
glassy states in painstaking detail and reproducing it in the
framework of a recently developed mean field theory for glasses
that has proven extremely successful for jamming, demonstrating its
predictive power in the context of metastable glassy states
obtained through nonequilibrium protocols.
