The state space is a fundamental concept for describing the trajectory of a dynamic system. Depending on its form, it can highlight certain changes over time while ignoring others. This is particularly the case for the spaces associated…
The nuclear many-body problem for medium-mass systems is commonly addressed using wave-function expansion methods that build upon a second-quantized representation of many-body operators with respect to a chosen computational basis. While…

Within the idealized scheme of a 1-dimensional Frenkel-Kontorova-like model, a special "quantized" sliding state was found for a solid lubricant confined between two periodic layers [PRL 97, 056101 (2006)]. This state, characterized by a…
In many contexts the modal properties of a structure change, either due to the impact of a changing environment, fatigue, or due to the presence of structural damage. For example during flight, an aircraft's modal properties are known to…

An Ising-type Vicsek model is proposed for collective motion and sudden direction change in a population of self-propelled particles. Particles move on a linear lattice with velocity +1 or -1 in the one-dimensional model. The probability of…
