A binary liquid near its consolute point exhibits critical fluctuations of the local composition; the diverging correlation length has always challenged simulations. The method of choice for the calculation of critical points in the phase…
In this paper we study the component structure of random graphs with independence between the edges. Under mild assumptions, we determine whether there is a giant component, and find its asymptotic size when it exists. We assume that the…
In this study, we employ analytical and numerical techniques to examine a phase transition model with moving boundaries. The model displays two relevant spatial scales pointing out to a macroscopic phase and a microscopic phase, interacting…
Given a Gibbs point process $\P^{\Psi}$ on $\R^d$ having a weak enough potential $\Psi$, we consider the random measures $\mu_\la := \sum_{x \in \P^{\Psi} \cap Q_\la} \xi(x, \P^{\Psi} \cap Q_\la) \delta_{x/\la^{1/d}}$, where $Q_{\la} :=…
Compositional data consists of vectors of proportions whose components sum to 1. Such vectors lie in the standard simplex, which is a manifold with boundary. One issue that has been rather controversial within the field of compositional…
Hypoelliptic diffusion processes can be used to model a variety of phenomena in applications ranging from molecular dynamics to audio signal analysis. We study parameter estimation for such processes in situations where we observe some…
Using a minimal algebraic model for the thermodynamics of binary rod--polymer mixtures, we provide evidence for a quintuple phase equilibrium; an observation that seems to be at odds with the Gibbs phase rule for two-component systems. Our…
This work improves the existing central limit theorems (CLTs) for geometric functionals of Gibbs processes in three aspects. First, we derive a CLT for weakly stabilizing functionals, thereby improving on the previously used assumption of…
We consider two different collective spin systems subjected to strong dissipation -- on the same scale as interaction strengths and external fields -- and show that either continuous or discontinuous dissipative quantum phase transitions…
A central problem in computational statistics is to convert a procedure for sampling combinatorial from an objects into a procedure for counting those objects, and vice versa. Weconsider sampling problems coming from *Gibbs distributions*,…
We establish large deviation principles (LDPs) for empirical measures associated with a sequence of Gibbs distributions on $n$-particle configurations, each of which is defined in terms of an inverse temperature $% \beta_n$ and an energy…
We provide an adaptive finite element approximation for a model of quasi-static crack growth in dimension two. The discrete setting consists of integral functionals that are defined on continuous, piecewise affine functions, where the…
We study the problem of phase separation in systems with a positive definite order parameter, and in particular, in systems with absorbing states. Owing to the presence of a single minimum in the free energy driving the relaxation kinetics,…
We investigate the fragmentation process of solid materials with crystalline and amorphous phases using the discrete element method. Damage initiates inside spherical samples above the contact zone in a region where the circumferential…
Minimal models of self-propelled particles with short-range volume exclusion interactions have been shown to exhibit signatures of phase separation. Here I show that the observed interfacial stability and fluctuations in motility-induced…
The paper studies the structure of high-order adiabatic approximation of a wave function for slowly changing Hamiltonians. A constructive technique for explicit separation of fast and slow components of the wave function is developed. The…
In recent papers it has been demonstrated that sampling a Gibbs distribution from an appropriate time-irreversible Langevin process is, from several points of view, advantageous when compared to sampling from a time-reversible one. Adding…
This paper is devoted to the presentation and the analysis of a new nonlinear subdivision scheme eliminating the Gibbs oscillations close to discontinuities. Its convergence, stability and order of approximation are analyzed. It is proved…
We introduce and study a class of particle hopping models consisting of a single box coupled to a pair of reservoirs. Despite being zero-dimensional, in the limit of large particle number and long observation time, the current and activity…
We define the notion of asymptotically free for locally restricted compositions, which means roughly that large parts can often be replaced by any larger parts. Two well-known examples are Carlitz and alternating compositions. We show that…
