The Good-Walker mechanism for diffraction is shown to provide a link between total and diffractive structure functions and to be relevant for QCD calculations at small x_{Bj}. For Deep-Inelastic scattering on a small-size target (cf. an…
We propose a simple parametrization for the deep-inelastic diffractive cross section. It contains the contribution of $q\bar{q}$ production to both the longitudinal and the transverse diffractive structure functions, and of the production…
An abstract framework for constructing stable decompositions of the spaces corresponding to general symmetric positive definite problems into "local" subspaces and a global "coarse" space is developed. Particular applications of this…

Using molecular dynamic simulations we study a family of continuous core-softened potentials consisting of a hard core, a shoulder at closest distances and an attractive well at further distance. The repulsive shoulder and the well…
Brownian dynamics simulations of a coarse-grained bead-spring chain model, with Debye-H\"uckel electrostatic interactions between the beads, are used to determine the root-mean-square end-to-end vector, the radius of gyration, and various…
In a highly turbulent medium characterized by a low Damk\"ohler number Da, reactions are commonly considered to occur in distributed zones broadened by small-scale turbulent eddies. In the present communication, an alternative regime of…

We study a one-dimensional cross-diffusion system for two interacting populations on the torus, with a fast-diffusion law with exponent $0< \alpha\le 1$ and different external potentials. For arbitrary non-negative $L^{1}$ initial data with…
Instabilities and pattern formation is the rule in nonequilibrium systems. Selection of a persistent lengthscale, or coarsening (increase of the lengthscale with time) are the two major alternatives. When and under which conditions one…
The diffusing-diffusivity mechanism proposed by Chubynsky and Slater [PRL 113, 098302, 2014] predicts that, in environments where the diffusivity changes gradually, the displacement distribution becomes non-Gaussian, even though the…
We investigate the equation of state, diffusion coefficient, and structural order of a family of spherically-symmetric potentials consisting of a hard core and a linear repulsive ramp. This generic potential has two characteristic length…
