Electronic tunability in crystals with weakly-bound layers can be achieved through layer stacking order. One such example is MoTe$_2$, where the low-temperature orthorhombic T$_d$ phase is topological and host to Weyl quasiparticles. The…
The spin structure of an axial next-nearest-neighbor Ising (ANNNI) model in two dimensions (2D) is a renewed problem because different Monte Carlo (MC) simulation methods predicted different spin orderings. The usual equilibrium simulation…
In many plasma systems, introducing a small background shear flow is enough to stabilize the system linearly. The nonlinear dynamics are much less sensitive to sheared flows than the average linear growthrates, and very small amplitude…

Several surfactant molecules self-assemble in solution to form long, cylindrical, flexible wormlike micelles. These micelles can be entangled with each other leading to viscoelastic phases. The rheological properties of such phases are very…
Colloids may be treated as `big atoms' so that they are good models for atomic and molecular systems. Colloidal hard disks are therefore good models for 2d materials and although their phase behavior is well characterized, rheology has…

Attempts to disentangle shear-flow turbulence often focus on identifying relatively simple solutions, such as travelling waves or periodic orbits. We show, however, that capturing multiscale features requires considering states at least as…
