We study the convergence of cluster and virial expansions for systems of particles subject to positive two-body interactions. Our results strengthen and generalize existing lower bounds on the radii of convergence and on the value of the…
We study the virial expansion of mixtures of countably many different types of particles. The main tool is the Lagrange-Good inversion formula, which has other applications such as counting coloured trees or studying probability generating…
A well-known cluster expansion, which leads to virial expansion for the free energy of low density systems, is modified in such a way that it becomes applicable to the description of condensed state of matter. To this end, the averaging of…
We review some recent progress on applications of Cluster Expansions. We focus on a system of classical particles living in a continuous medium and interacting via a stable and tempered pair potential. We review the cluster expansion in…
A specific modification of Newtonian dynamics known as MOND has been shown to reproduce the dynamics of most astrophysical systems at different scales without invoking non-baryonic dark matter (DM). There is, however, a long-standing…
On the example of a lattice-gas model, a convincing confirmation is obtained for the direct relationship between the condensation phenomenon and divergent behavior of the virial expansions for pressure and density in powers of activity. The…
We compare the different convergence criteria available for cluster expansions of polymer gases subjected to hard-core exclusions, with emphasis on polymers defined as finite subsets of a countable set (e.g. contour expansions and more…
We consider a binary system of small and large objects in the continuous space interacting via a non-negative potential. By integrating over the small objects, the effective interaction between the large ones becomes multi-body. We prove…
Motivated by aggregation phenomena in gliding bacteria, we study collective motion in a twodimensional model of active, self-propelled rods interacting through volume exclusion. In simulations with individual particles, we find that…
We give a new proof of the well-known upper bound on the correlation function of a gas of non-overlapping dipoles of fixed length and discrete orientation working directly in the charge representation, instead of the more usual sine-Gordon…
The subject of this paper is the study of the asymptotic behaviour of the equilibrium configurations of a nonlinearly elastic thin rod, as the diameter of the cross-section tends to zero. Convergence results are established assuming…
We revisit the classical approach to cluster expansions, based on tree graphs, and establish a new convergence condition that improves those by Kotecky-Preiss and Dobrushin, as we show in some examples. The two ingredients of our approach…
We propose a method based on cluster expansion to study the low activity/high temperature phase of a continuous particle system confined in a finite volume, interacting through a stable and finite range pair potential with negative minimum…
We measure the thermodynamic properties of cluster outer regions to provide constraints on the processes that rule the formation of large scale structures. We derived the thermodynamic properties of the intracluster gas (temperature,…
A cluster expansion is proposed, that applies to both continuous and discrete systems. The assumption for its convergence involves an extension of the neat Kotecky-Preiss criterion. Expressions and estimates for correlation functions are…
We generalize the technique of linked cluster expansions on hypercubic lattices to actions that couple fields at lattice sites which are not nearest neighbours. We show that in this case the graphical expansion can be arranged in such a way…
We provide a sufficient condition for the uniqueness in distribution of Gibbs point processes with non-negative pairwise interaction, together with convergent expansions of the log-Laplace functional, factorial moment densities and…
Recently, Suzaku has produced temperature and entropy profiles, along with profiles of gas density, gas fraction, and mass, for multiple galaxy clusters out to ~r_200 (~= virial radius). In this paper, we compare these novel X-ray…
The emergence of clustering and coarsening in crowded ensembles of self-propelled agents is studied using a lattice model in one-dimension. The persistent exclusion process, where particles move at directions that change randomly at a low…
Morphoelastic rods are thin bodies which can grow and can change their intrinsic curvature and torsion. We deduce a system of equations ruling accretion and remodeling in a morphoelastic rod by combining balance laws involving non-standard…
