We give a method for taking microscopic limits of normal matrix ensembles. We apply this method to study the behaviour near certain types of singular points on the boundary of the droplet. Our investigation includes ensembles without…
In this paper we consider a model which describes a polymer chain interacting with an infinity of equi-spaced linear interfaces. The distance between two consecutive interfaces is denoted by T = T_N and is allowed to grow with the size N of…
Thermalized elastic membranes without distant self-avoidance are believed to undergo a crumpling transition when the microscopic bending stiffness is comparable to $kT$, the scale of thermal fluctuations. Most potential physical…

While in the fully-connected limit the solution of the spin-glass model is known, with the existence of a complex transition on a critical line in the temperature-external field phase diagram, in finite dimensions we don't know if a…
Photo-polymerization of a reactive mesogen mixed with a mesogenic dimer, shown to exhibit the twist-bend nematic phase ($N_{TB}$), reveals the complex structure of the self-deformation patterns observed in planar cells. The polymerized…
The unfolding of a polymer below the $\theta$ point when pulled by an external force is studied both in d=2 on the lattice and in $d=3$ off lattice. A ground state analysis of finite length chains shows that the globule unfolds via multiple…
In this paper, the response of single three-dimensional phantom and self-avoiding polymers to localized step strains are studied for two cases in the absence of hydrodynamic interactions: (i) polymers tethered at one end with the strain…

We develop a model and numerical method to study the large-amplitude flutter of rectangular membranes (of zero bending rigidity) that shed a trailing vortex-sheet wake in a three-dimensional (3D) inviscid fluid flow. We apply small initial…
We show that the concentration profiles in the subdiffusive system with a membrane, which separates a homogeneous solution from a pure solvent at an initial moment, has a general scaling form in the long time limit $C\sim t^\lambda…
It is shown that statistical properties of developed hydrodynamic turbulence are characterized by an infinite set of independent anomalous exponents which describes the scaling behavior of hydrodynamic fields constructed from the second and…

We discuss the dependence of the results of renormalized perturbation theory for dilute polymer solutions on the choice of the uncritical manifold where the perturbation series are evaluated. Special emphasis is given to the influence of…
