A disclination in a hexatic membrane favors the development of Gaussian curvature localized near its core. The resulting global structure of the membrane has mean curvature, which is disfavored by curvature energy. Thus a membrane with an…
Suppose $\{X_{t}:t\ge 0\}$ is a supercritical superprocess on a Luzin space $E$, with a non-local branching mechanism and probabilities $\mathbb{P}_{\delta_{x}}$, when initiated from a unit mass at $x\in E$. By ``supercritical", we mean…

We develop the elastic theory for inversion-asymmetric tethered membranes and use it to identify and study their possible phases. Asymmetry in a tethered membrane causes spontaneous curvature, which in general depends upon the local…
