We review some decays that require knowledge of the decay constants of $0^{+}$ heavy-light mesons. We compute the decay constants of P-wave heavy-light mesons from unquenched lattice QCD, with two degenerate flavours of sea quarks, at a…
The Smith Hat tile is the first known aperiodic monotile, having been discovered in 2023. The simple structure, constructed using only 8 kites, is unique and well motivated for analysis within percolation theory. The primary goal of this…
Kesten showed the exponential decay of percolation probability in the subcritical phase for the two-dimensional percolation model. This result implies his celebrated computation that $p_c=0.5$ for bond percolation in the square lattice, and…
We study the model of close-packed dimers on planar lattices belonging to the family of modified rectangular (MR) fractals, whose members are enumerated by an integer $p\geq 2$, as well as on the non-planar 4-simplex fractal lattice. By…
We present a method of general applicability for finding exact or accurate approximations to bond percolation thresholds for a wide class of lattices. To every lattice we sytematically associate a polynomial, the root of which in $[0,1]$ is…
We systematically map out the jamming transition of all 2D bidisperse mixtures of frictionless disks in the hard particle limit. The critical volume fraction, mean coordination number, number of rattlers, structural order parameters, and…

Using Monte Carlo simulations on different system sizes we determine with high precision the critical thresholds of two families of directed percolation models on a square lattice. The thresholds decrease exponentially with the degree of…
This paper presents new lower bounds for the lattice covering densities of simplices by studying the Degree-Diameter Problem for abelian Cayley digraphs. In particular, it proves that the density of any lattice covering of a tetrahedron is…
We present Monte Carlo estimates for site and bond percolation thresholds in simple hypercubic lattices with 4 to 13 dimensions. For d<6 they are preliminary, for d >= 6 they are between 20 to 10^4 times more precise than the best previous…
A remarkable theoretical prediction for a crystalline (polymerized) surface is that its Poisson ratio (\sigma) is negative. Using a large scale Monte Carlo simulation of a simple model of such surfaces we show that this is indeed true. The…
We study gradient percolation for site percolation on the triangular lattice. This is a percolation model where the percolation probability depends linearly on the location of the site. We prove the results predicted by physicists for this…
Nanoscopic diffusion at surfaces normally takes place when an adsorbate jumps from one adsorption site to the other. Jump diffusion can be measured via quasi-elastic scattering experiments, and the results can often be interpreted in terms…
We present a general method for predicting bond percolation thresholds and critical surfaces for a broad class of two-dimensional periodic lattices, reproducing many known exact results and providing excellent approximations for several…
We estimate the critical thresholds of bond and site percolation on nonplanar, effectively two-dimensional graphs with chimera like topology. The building blocks of these graphs are complete and symmetric bipartite subgraphs of size $2n$,…
At high area fractions, monolayers of colloidal dimer particles form a degenerate crystal (DC) structure in which the particle lobes occupy triangular lattice sites while the particles are oriented randomly along any of the three lattice…
We study how to restore site percolation on a damaged square lattice with nearest neighbor (N$^2$) interactions. Two strategies are suggested for a density $x$ of destroyed sites by a random attack at $p_c$. In the first one, a density $y$…
We report a surprising result, established by numerical simulations and analytical arguments for a one-dimensional lattice model of random sequential adsorption, that even an arbitrarily small imprecision in the lattice-site localization…
We study the classical dimer model on rhombic Penrose tilings, whose edges and vertices may be identified with those of a bipartite graph. We find that Penrose tilings do not admit perfect matchings (defect-free dimer coverings). Instead,…
