It is well known that the similar universal behavior of infinite-size (bulk) systems of different nature requires the same basic conditions: space dimensionality; number components of order parameter; the type (short- or long-range) of the…
In recent years lines along which structure and dynamics are invariant to a good approximation, so-called isomorphs, have been identified in the thermodynamic phase diagrams of several model liquids and solids. This paper reports computer…

Thermal motions in the 2D Lennard-Jones liquid near solidification are studied at equilibrium and under shear flow conditions. At the temperatures of the study, the liquid is significantly aggregated. On times of few to few tens of…
Recent work on many particle system reveals the existence of regular collective perturbations corresponding to the smallest positive Lyapunov exponents (LEs), called hydrodynamic Lyapunov modes. Until now, however, these modes are only…

Cavity point-to-set correlations are real-space tools to detect the roughening of the free-energy landscape that accompanies the dynamical slowdown of glass-forming liquids. Measuring these correlations in model glass formers remains,…
The shear viscosity of a Lennard-Jones fluid is obtained by stochastic dissipative molecular dynamics (SDMD) simulations. A generic constraint to the equations of motion is given that reduces the sensitivity of the shear viscosity to the…

The classic Kob-Andersen (KA) binary Lennard-Jones mixtures which are designed to prevent crystallization has been extensively studied in simulation of slow dynamics. Although crystallization can occur if a liquid system is cooled slowly,…
Using a molecular dynamics computer simulation we determine the temperature dependence of the partial structure factors for a binary Lennard-Jones system. These structure factors are used as input data to solve numerically the wave-vector…
A solid substrate, when exposed to a vapour, can interact with it in such a way that sufficiently close to liquid-vapour coexistence a macroscopically thick liquid wetting layer is formed on the substrate surface. If such a wetting…
We propose an extension of the law of corresponding states that can be applied to systems - such as colloidal suspensions - that have widely different ranges of attractive interactions. We argue that, for such systems, the ``reduced''…

The phase diagram of the prototypical two-dimensional Lennard-Jones system, while extensively investigated, is still debated. In particular, there are controversial results in the literature as concern the existence of the hexatic phase and…
