We consider a one-dimensional classical Wigner jellium, not necessarily charge neutral, for which the electrons are allowed to exist beyond the support of the background charge. The model can be seen as a one-dimensional Coulomb gas in…
We consider in this note a class of two-dimensional determinantal Coulomb gases confined by a radial external field. As the number of particles tends to infinity, their empirical distribution tends to a probability measure supported in a…
We study a class of radially symmetric Coulomb gas ensembles at inverse temperature $\beta=2$, for which the droplet consists of a number of concentric annuli, having at least one bounded ``gap'' $G$, i.e., a connected component of the…
We consider a planar Coulomb gas ensemble of size $N$ with the inverse temperature $\beta=2$ and external potential $Q(z)=|z|^2-2c \log|z-a|$, where $c>0$ and $a \in \mathbb{C}$. Equivalently, this model can be realised as $N$ eigenvalues…
We investigate a family of radially symmetric Coulomb gas systems at inverse temperature $\beta = 2$. The family is characterised by the property that the density of the equilibrium measure vanishes on a ring at radius $r_*$, which lies…
We consider planar Coulomb systems consisting of a large number $n$ of repelling point charges in the low temperature regime, where the inverse temperature $\beta$ grows at least logarithmically in $n$ as $n \longrightarrow \infty$, i.e.,…
We modify the "floating crystal" trial state for the classical Homogeneous Electron Gas (also known as Jellium), in order to suppress the boundary charge fluctuations that are known to lead to a macroscopic increase of the energy. The…
We consider temperature-induced melting of a Wigner solid in one dimensional (1D) and two dimensional (2D) lattices of electrons interacting via the long-range Coulomb interaction in the presence of strong disorder arising from charged…
We consider $N$ particles in the plane influenced by a general external potential that are subject to the Coulomb interaction in two dimensions at inverse temperature $\beta$. At large temperature, when scaling $\beta=2c/N$ with some fixed…
We study the long-time behavior of the dynamics of interacting planar Brow-nian particles, confined by an external field and subject to a singular pair repulsion. The invariant law is an exchangeable Boltzmann -- Gibbs measure. For a…
We present results of molecular dynamics simulations of the electron system on the surface of liquid helium. The simulations are done for 1600 electrons with periodic boundary conditions. Electron scattering by capillary waves and phonons…
The "melting" of self-formed rigid structures made of a small number of interacting classical particles confined in an irregular two-dimensional space is investigated using Monte Carlo simulations. It is shown that the interplay of…
We consider a two-dimensional Coulomb gas confined to a disk when the external potential is radially symmetric. In the presence of a hard-wall constraint effective to change the equilibrium, the density of the equilibrium measure acquires a…
Although jammed granular systems are athermal, several thermodynamic-like descriptions have been proposed which make quantitative predictions about the distribution of volume and stress within a system and provide a corresponding…
Current research presents an innovative model of half-space plasmon excitations for electron gas of arbitrary degeneracy in an ambient jellium-like positive background . The linearized Schr\"{o}dinger-Poisson system is used to derive…
We consider a two-dimensional equilibrium measure problem under the presence of quadratic potentials with a point charge and derive the explicit shape of the associated droplets. This particularly shows that the topology of the droplets…
We study a planar Coulomb gas confined to a sufficiently smooth Jordan arc $\gamma$ in the complex plane, at inverse temperature $\beta > 0$. Let \[\bar{Z}_{n}^\beta(\gamma) = Z_{n}^\beta(\gamma)/\left(2 \textrm{cap}(\gamma)\right)^{\beta…
The jellium is a model, introduced by Wigner (1934), for a gas of electrons moving in a uniform neutralizing background of positive charge. Wigner suggested that the repulsion between electrons might lead to a broken translational symmetry.…
Formulating a statistical mechanics for granular matter remains a significant challenge, in part, due to the difficulty associated with a complete characterization of the systems under study. We present a fully characterized model of a…
General expression for the thermodynamic potential of the model of semi-infinite jellium is obtained. By using this expression, the surface energy for infinite barrier model is calculated. The behavior of the surface energy and of chemical…
