A many-particle theory is presented for the effective quasistatic permittivity of macroscopically homogeneous and isotropic systems of inhomogeneous dielectric particles with different degrees of penetrability. The theory is based upon our…
Polymer self-consistent field theory techniques are used to derive quantum density functional theory without the use of the theorems of density functional theory. Instead, a free energy is obtained from a partition function that is…
Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSP) constitute a convenient way to capture many combinatorial problems. The general CSP is known to be NP-complete, but its complexity depends on a template, usually a set of relations, upon which they are…
We present a novel and rigorous approach to the Langevin dynamics of ideal polymer chains subject to internal distance constraints. The permanent constraints are modelled by harmonic potentials in the limit when the strength of the…
We define a lattice model for the interaction of a polymer with water. We solve the model in a suitable approximation. In the case of a non-polar homopolymer, for reasonable values of the parameters, the polymer is found in a non-compact…
We present a continuation of our theoretical research into the influence of co-solvent polarizability on a differential capacitance of the electric double layer [EPL 111, 28002 (2015)]. We formulate a modified Poisson-Boltzmann theory,…
In this paper, we are concerned with the minimal regularity of both the density and the velocity for the weak solutions keeping energy equality in the isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations. The energy equality criteria without…

I present a low energy Lagrangian implementing the idea of Cosmological SUSY breaking (CSB). The model predicts ${\rm tan}\beta \sim 1$, and incorporates a new mechanism for breaking of $SU(2)\times U(1)$. The Higgs mass is determined by…

The gas of the interacted electrons is usually described within Kohn-Sham approximation by the set of Poisson and Schr\"{o}dinger equations with an effective potential for the single-particle wave functions. The solution of these equations…
Motivated by results implying that the constituents of dark matter (DM) might be collisional, we consider a cosmological (toy-) model, in which the DM itself possesses some sort of thermodynamic properties. In this case, not only can the…
The main goal of the paper is to define and use a condition sufficient to choose a unique solution to conservation law systems with a singular measure in initial data. Different approximations can lead to solutions with different…
We derive the porous medium equation from an interacting particle system which belongs to the family of exclusion processes, with nearest neighbor exchanges. The particles follow a degenerate dynamics, in the sense that the jump rates can…
A new approach to quantum field theory at finite temperature and density in arbitrary space-time dimension D is developed. We focus mainly on relativistic theories, but the approach applies to non-relativistic ones as well. In this…
The equilibrium statistical mechanics of classical directed polymers in 2 dimensions is well known to be equivalent to the imaginary-time quantum dynamics of a 1+1-dimensional many-particle system, with polymer configurations corresponding…
The correspondence principle asserts that quantum mechanics resembles classical mechanics in the high-quantum-number limit. In the past few years many papers have been published on the extension of both quantum mechanics and classical…
In this paper we obtain the central limit theorems, moderate deviations and the laws of the iterated logarithm for the energy \[H_n=\sum_{1\le j<k\le n}\omega_j\omega_k1_{\{S_j=S_k\}}\] of the polymer $\{S_1,...,S_n\}$ equipped with random…

We study the partitioning of cosolute particles in a thin film of a semi-flexible polymer network by a combination of coarse-grained (implicit-solvent) stochastic dynamics simulations and mean-field theory. We focus on a wide range of…
