In this paper we introduce and study the correlation functions of a chiral one-dimensional electron model intended to qualitatively represent narrow Hall bars separated into left and right sections by a penetrable barrier. The model has two…
We extend the doubly degenerate Cahn-Hilliard (DDCH) models for isotropic surface diffusion, which yield more accurate approximations than classical degenerate Cahn-Hilliard (DCH) models, to the anisotropic case. We consider both weak and…
We consider bilinear oscillatory integrals, i.e. pseudo-product operators whose symbol involves an oscillating factor. Lebesgue space inequalities are established, which give decay as the oscillation becomes stronger ; this extends the…
A variant of energy scale deformation is considered for the S = 1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on polyhedra. The deformation is induced by the perturbations to the uniform Hamiltonian, whose coefficients are determined by the bond…

We have developed a theory of polymer entanglement using an extended Cahn-Hilliard functional, with two extra terms. One is a nonlocal attractive term, operating over mesoscales, which is interpreted as giving rise to entanglement, and the…
Molecular simulations of interfacial polar media routinely employ periodic boundary conditions parallel to the interface. We show that this lateral periodicity introduces a spatially uniform in-plane mode ($q_{\parallel}=0$) that is…
