Two-dimensional (2D) turbulence, despite being an idealization of real flows, is of fundamental interest as a model of the spontaneous emergence of order from chaotic flows. The emergence of order often displays critical behavior, whose…

Given any two forests with the same degree sequence, we show in an algorithmic way that one can be transformed into the other by a sequence of 2-switches in such a way that all the intermediate graphs of the transformation are forests. We…

Melting in two-dimensional systems has remained controversial as theory, simulations, and experiments show contrasting results. One issue that obscures this discussion is whether or not theoretical predictions on strictly 2D systems…
