We address the response of a random heteropolymer to preferential solvation of certain monomer types at the globule-solvent interface. For each set of monomers that can comprise the molecule's surface, we represent the ensemble of allowed…
Starting for the Stillinger and Weber expression for the free energy of supercooled liquids, we extend the free energy to the case in which two time scales separate and the system is in quasi-equilibrium. The concept of an effective…
A generalization of the free energy perturbation identity is derived, and a computational strategy based on this result is presented. A simple example illustrates the efficiency gains that can be achieved with this method.
We study a polymer model on hierarchical lattices very close to the one introduced and studied in \cite{DGr, CD}. For this model, we prove the existence of free energy and derive the necessary and sufficient condition for which very strong…
We propose finite-volume schemes for the Cahn-Hilliard equation which unconditionally and discretely preserve the boundedness of the phase field and the dissipation of the free energy. Our numerical framework is applicable to a variety of…
In higher dimensional gauge theory, we need energies with higher power terms of field strength in order to realize point-wise monopoles. We consider new models with higher power terms of field strength and extraordinary kinetic term of…
The dual continuum model serves as a powerful tool in the modeling of subsurface applications. It allows a systematic coupling of various components of the solutions. The system is of multiscale nature as it involves high heterogeneous and…
We derive a formula that expresses the density of states of a system with continuous degrees of freedom as a function of microcanonical averages of squared gradient and Laplacian of the Hamiltonian. This result is then used to propose a…
We present a method, based on loop equations, to compute recursively, all the terms in the large $N$ topological expansion of the free energy for the 2-hermitian matrix model, in the case where the support of the density of eigenvalues is…
We present a new and exploratory approach to determine the $\Delta\beta(\beta)$-shift in the $O(3)$ nonlinear $\sigma$-model. The method is based on a scaling hypothesis for a free energy difference, which is assumed to be valid in a…
A `polydisperse' system has an infinite number of conserved densities. We give a rational procedure for projecting its infinite-dimensional free energy surface onto a subspace comprising a finite number of linear combinations of densities…

We consider a class of spin-type discrete systems and analyze their continuum limit as the lattice spacing goes to zero. Under standard coerciveness and growth assumptions together with an additional head-to-tail symmetry condition, we…
In this work, we study the co-dimensional one interface limit and geometric motions of parabolic Ginzburg--Landau systems with potentials of high-dimensional wells. The main result generalizes the one by Lin et al. (Comm. Pure Appl. Math.,…
We consider $N$ bosons in a box in $\mathbb {R}^d$ with volume $N/\rho$ under the influence of a mutually repellent pair potential. The particle density $\rho\in (0,\infty)$ is kept fixed. Our main result is the identification of the…
The description of complex physical phenomena often involves sophisticated models that rely on a large number of parameters, with many dimensions and scales. One practical way to simplify that kind of models is to discard some of the…
We investigate, in a fairly general setting, the limit of large volume equilibrium Gibbs measures for elasticity type Hamiltonians with clamped boundary conditions. The existence of a quasiconvex free energy, forming the large deviations…

The 'n-equivalences' of boundary conditions of lattice models are introduced and it is derived that the models with n-equivalent boundary conditions result in the identical free energy. It is shown that the free energy of the six-vertex…
