We consider a class of particle systems which appear in various applications such as approximation theory, plasticity, potential theory and space-filling designs. The positions of the particles on the real line are described as a global…
We suggest a formalism to illustrate the entanglement of identical particles in the first quantization language (1QL). Our 1QL formalism enables one to exploit all the well-established quantum information tools to understand the…
A conjecture on the origin of elementary particle masses is discussed, based on the micro-universe and quantum state reduction concepts. The reduction of the quantum state of a real particle is understood to take place objectively; in every…
We study, by numerical and analytical means, the evolution of a uniform one-dimensional collisionless plasma initiated between plane absorbing walls. The ensuing flow is described by rarefaction waves that propagate symmetrically inward…
From the exact single step evolution equation of the two-point correlation function of a particle distribution subjected to a stochastic displacement field $\bu(\bx)$, we derive different dynamical regimes when $\bu(\bx)$ is iterated to…
The existence of fundamentally identical particles represents a foundational distinction between classical and quantum mechanics. Due to their exchange symmetry, identical particles can appear to be entangled -- another uniquely quantum…
We consider an interacting particle system, which generalizes the classical totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP), in that each site can contain up to a fixed finite number of particles, and the particle movement is governed…
The presence of interparticle cohesion can drastically change the behavior of granular materials. For instance, powders are challenging to handle, and one can make a sandcastle using wet grains. In this study, we report experimental results…
For itinerant fermionic and bosonic systems, we study `particle entanglement', defined as the entanglement between two subsets of particles making up the system. We formulate the general structure of particle entanglement in many-fermion…
In this paper, we consider the dynamics of a tagged point particle in a gas of moving hard-spheres that are non-interacting among each other. This model is known as the ideal Rayleigh gas. We add to this model the possibility of…
We introduce a one-dimensional stochastic system where particles perform independent diffusions and interact through pairwise coagulation events, which occur at a nontrivial rate upon collision. Under appropriate conditions on the diffusion…
We introduce and analyse a class of fragmentation-coalescence processes defined on finite systems of particles organised into clusters. Coalescent events merge multiple clusters simultaneously to form a single larger cluster, while…
By means of Molecular Dynamics simulations, we investigate the elementary process of avalanches and size segregation by surface flow in 2 dimensions: a single ball confined to moving along an inclined line consisting of balls. The global…
This article deals with the issues of global-in-time existence and asymptotic analysis of a fluid-particle interaction model in the so-called bubbling regime. The mixture occupies the physical space $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ which may…
The dynamics is studied of an infinite continuum system of jumping and coalescing point particles. In the course of jumps, the particles repel each other whereas their coalescence is free. As the equation of motion we take a kinetic…
We propose a novel approach in the study of transport phenomena in dense systems or systems with long range interactions where multiple particle interactions must be taken into consideration. Within Boltzmann's kinetic formalism, we study…
We consider an interacting particle system $(\eta_t)_{t\geq 0}$ with values in $\{0,1\}^{\mathbb{Z}}$, in which each vacant site becomes occupied with rate 1, while each connected component of occupied sites become vacant with rate equal to…
Chemically active Brownian particles with surface catalytic reactions may repel each other due to diffusiophoretic interactions in the reaction and product concentration fields. The system behavior can be described by a `chemical' coupling…
In the field of freezing colloidal suspensions, it is important to understand the particle-scale behavior of particle packing. Here, we reveal the dynamics of particle packing by identifying the behavior of each single particle in situ. The…
Consider a finite system of competing Brownian particles on the real line. Each particle moves as a Brownian motion, with drift and diffusion coefficients depending only on its current rank relative to the other particles. We find a…
