The Brillouin elastic free energy change $DF$ between thermally annealed and quenched $(Na_2O)_x(SiO_2)_{1-x}$ glasses is found to decrease linearly at $x > 0.23$ (floppy phase), and to nearly vanish at $x < 0.18$ (stressed- rigid phase).…

Mott transitions in real materials are first order and almost always associated with lattice distortions, both features promoting the emergence of nanotextured phases. This nanoscale self-organization creates spatially inhomogeneous…

A self-organized model with social percolation process is proposed to describe the propagations of information for different trading ways across a social system and the automatic formation of various groups within market traders. Based on…
