While numerous examples of fractal spaces may be found in various fields of science, the flow of time is typically assumed to be one-dimensional and smooth. Here we present a metamaterial-based physical system, which can be described by…

Analysis on fractals is a growing field, with hints of potential for widespread applicability across all of STEM. One of the most heavily researched type of fractals are the nested fractals, fractal shapes defined by virtue of being made of…

We determine almost sure limits of rescaled intrinsic volumes of the construction steps of fractal percolation in $\mathbb{R}^d$ for any dimension $d\geq 1$. We observe a factorization of these limit variables which allows, in particular,…
We study the Kern-Frenkel model for patchy colloids using Barker-Henderson second-order thermodynamic perturbation theory. The model describes a fluid where hard sphere particles are decorated with one patch, so that they interact via a…
Chaotic transients occur in many experiments including those in fluids, in simulations of the plane Couette flow, and in coupled map lattices and they are a common phenomena in dynamical systems. Superlong chaotic transients are caused by…

Fractals are geometric shapes that can display complex and self-similar patterns found in nature (e.g., clouds and plants). Recent works in visual recognition have leveraged this property to create random fractal images for model…

The viscosity of glass-forming liquids increases by many orders of magnitude if their temperature is lowered by a mere factor of 2-3 [1,2]. Recent studies suggest that this widespread phenomenon is accompanied by spatially heterogeneous…

There is a class of electronic liquids in dimensions greater than one, which show all essential properties of one dimensional electronic physics. These are topological liquids - correlated electronic systems with a spectral flow.…
Breakup of a liquid jet into a chain of droplets is common in nature and industry. Previous researchers developed profound mathematic and fluid dynamic models to address this breakup phenomenon starting from tiny perturbations. However, the…
