Brownian dynamics simulations of a coarse-grained bead-spring chain model, with Debye-H\"uckel electrostatic interactions between the beads, are used to determine the root-mean-square end-to-end vector, the radius of gyration, and various…
The polar discontinuity at the SrTiO3/LaAlO3 interface (STO/LAO) can in principle sustain an electron density of 3.3E14 cm-2 (0.5 electrons per unit cell). However, experimentally observed densities are more than an order of magnitude…
Some recent analytical papers have explored limiting behaviors of Landau-deGennes models for liquid crystals in certain extreme ranges of the model parameters: limits of "vanishing elasticity" (in the language of some of these papers) and…
We consider paramagnetic, spin-glass and ferromagnetic phases. At $T=0$ model gives for the some values of connectivity (near the critical) extremal suppression of finite size effects (decoding error probability).
We develop finite temperature strong coupling expansions for the SU(N) Hubbard Model in powers of $\beta t$, $w=\exp{(-\beta U)}$ and ${1\over \beta U}$ for arbitrary filling. The expansions are done in the grand canonical ensemble and are…
We study the large time behavior of solutions near a constant equilibrium to the compressible Euler-Maxwell system in $\r3$. We first refine a global existence theorem by assuming that the $H^3$ norm of the initial data is small, but the…
We study the deformation and breakup of an axisymmetric electrolyte drop which is freely suspended in an infinite dielectric medium and subjected to an imposed electric field. The electric potential in the drop phase is assumed small, so…
Charge correlations in dense ionic fluids give rise to novel effects such as long-range screening and colloidal stabilization which are not predicted by the classic Debye-Huckel theory. We show that a Coulomb or charge-frustrated Ising…
The Helmholtz free energy density is parametrized as a function of temperature and baryon density near the chiral critical point of QCD. The parametrization incorporates the expected critical exponents and amplitudes. An expansion away from…
We prove a Central Limit Theorem for the empirical measure in the one-dimensional Totally Asymmetric Zero-Range Process in the hyperbolic scaling $N$, starting from the equilibrium measure $\nu_{\rho}$. We also show that when taking the…
The most general Lorentz-invariant decay-density-matrix for $t\to W^{+}b\to (l^{+}\nu)b$, or for $t\to W^{+}b\to (j_{\bar d}j_u)b$, is expressed in terms of eight helicity parameters. The parameters are physically defined in terms of…
Computable estimates for the error of finite element discretisations of parabolic problems in the $L^\infty(0,T; L^2)$ norm are developed, which exhibit constant effectivities (the ratio of the estimated error to the true error) with…
We present a perturbative calculation of finite-size effects near $T_c$ of the $\phi^4$ lattice model in a $d$-dimensional cubic geometry of size $L$ with periodic boundary conditions for $d > 4$. The structural differences between the…
The semileptonic and leptonic decays of heavy mesons are studied as a phenomenological application and exploration of a heavy-quark limit of Dyson-Schwinger equations. The single form factor, $\xi(w)$, which characterises the semileptonic…
Density expansions for hypoelliptic diffusions $(X^1,...,X^d)$ are revisited. In particular, we are interested in density expansions of the projection $(X_T^1,...,X_T^l)$, at time $T>0$, with $l \leq d$. Global conditions are found which…
We study the properties of convex functionals which have been proposed for the simulation of charged molecular systems within the Poisson-Boltzmann approximation. We consider the extent to which the functionals reproduce the true…
