We investigate the evolution of a single unbounded interface between ordered phases in two-dimensional Ising ferromagnets that are endowed with single-spin-flip zero-temperature Glauber dynamics. We examine specifically the cases where the…

We propose a lattice model to study the dynamics of a driven interface in a medium with random pinning forces. For driving forces F smaller than a threshold force F_c the whole interface gets pinned. The depinning transition can be…

In this paper we investigate the dynamical behavior of an interface or polymer, in interaction with a distant attractive substrate. The interface is modeled by the graph of a nearest neighbor path with non-negative integer coordinates, and…

Repulsion between individuals within a finite radius is encountered in numerous applications, including cell exclusion, i.e. avoidance of overlapping cells, bird flocks, or microscopic pedestrian models. We define such individual based…

Long linear polymers in a depinned interfaces environment have been studied for a long time, for instance in \cite{Caravenna2009depinning} when the temperature is constant. In this paper, we study an extension of this model by making the…

We study the dynamical behavior of a one dimensional interface interacting with a sticky unpenetrable substrate or wall. The interface is subject to two effects going in opposite directions. Contact between the interface and the substrate…

This paper analyzes a random walk model for the level lines appearing in the entropic repulsion phenomena of three-dimensional discrete random interfaces above a hard wall; we are particularly motivated by the low-temperature (2+1)D…

An isolated charge-neutral drop suspended in an unbounded medium does not migrate in a uniform DC electric field. A nearby wall breaks the symmetry and causes the drop to drift towards or away from the boundary, depending on the electric…

We study the QCD phases and their transitions in 2+1 flavour NJL model, with focus on the interface effects such as the interface tension, the interface entropy and critical bubble size in the coexistence region of the first order phase…

In a Hilbert space $\mathcal H$, we study the asymptotic behaviour, as time variable $t$ goes to $+\infty$, of nonautonomous gradient-like dynamical systems involving inertia and multiscale features. Given $\mathcal H$ a general Hilbert…

The flow near a moving contact line is primarily governed by three key parameters: viscosity ratio, dynamic contact angle, and inertia. While the behavior of dynamic contact angles has been extensively studied in earlier experimental and…

We define a new model of interface roughening which has the property that the minimum of interface height is conserved locally during the growth. This model corresponds to the limit $q \to \infty$ of the q-color dimer deposition-evaporation…
