Collective coherent scattering of laser light by an ensemble of polarizable point particles creates long range interactions, whose properties can be tailored by choice of injected laser powers, frequencies and polarizations. We use a…
The isotropic-to-nematic transition in a two-dimensional fluid of hard needles is studied using grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations, multiple histogram reweighting, and finite size scaling. The transition is shown to be of the…
A system of hard spheres exhibits physics that is controlled only by their density. This comes about because the interaction energy is either infinite or zero, so all allowed configurations have exactly the same energy. The low density…
Nonequilibrium steady states in an open system connecting two reservoirs of platelike colloidal particles are investigated by means of a recently proposed phenomenological dynamic density functional theory [M. Bier and R. van Roij, Phys.…
The phase behaviour and structural properties of a monolayer of hard particles is examined in such a confinement, where the adsorbed particles are constrained to the surface of a narrow hard cylindrical pore. The diameter of the pore is…
Exploring structural order in disordered systems including liquids and glasses is an intriguing but challenging issue in condensed matter physics. Here we construct a new parameter based on the angular distribution function of particles and…
An inversion method is formulated for extracting entanglement-related information on two-particle interactions in a one-dimensional system from measurable one-particle position- and momentum-distribution functions. The method is based on a…
We review recently introduced numerical methods for the unbiased detection of the order parameter and/or dominant correlations, in many-body interacting systems, by using reduced density matrices. Most of the paper is devoted to the…
Using the Jacobian matrix, we obtain theoretical expression of rigidity and the density of states of two-dimensional amorphous solids consisting of frictional grains in the linear response to an infinitesimal strain, in which we ignore the…
We study dynamic self-organisation and order-disorder transitions in a two-dimensional system of self-propelled particles. Our model is a variation of the Vicsek model, where particles align the motion to their neighbours but repel each…
Motivated by experiments on sheared suspensions that show a transition between ordered and disordered phases, we here study the long-time behavior of a sheared and overdamped 2-d system of particles interacting by repulsive forces. As a…
We introduce a simple spherical model whose structural properties are similar to the ones generated by models with directional interactions, by employing a binary mixture of large and small hard spheres, with a square-well attraction acting…
Whether or not there is growing static order accompanying the dynamical heterogeneity and increasing relaxation times seen in glassy systems is a matter of dispute. An obstacle to resolving this issue is that the order is expected to be…
We consider the ordered and disordered dynamics for monolayers of rolling self-interacting particles with an offset center of mass and a non-isotropic inertia tensor. The rolling constraint is considered as a simplified model of a very…
We consider systems of particles hopping stochastically on $d$-dimensional lattices with space-dependent probabilities. We map the master equation onto an evolution equation in a Fock space where the dynamics are given by a quantum…
Based on density-functional theory we analyze the full phase diagram, the occurrence of long-ranged orientational order, and the structural properties of dipolar fluids. As a model system we consider the Stockmayer fluid that consists of…
We investigate the degree of local structural similarity between the parent-liquid and children-crystal states for a model soft-matter system of particles interacting through the harmonic-repulsive pair potential. At different pressures,…
Results of large-scale numerical simulations are reported on the Anderson localization in a two-dimensional square lattice tight-binding model with random flux. Localization lengths, fluctuations of the conductance, and the density of…
We consider a two-dimensional lattice model for liquid crystals consisting of long rods interacting via purely hard core interactions, with two allowed orientations defined by the underlying lattice. We rigorously prove the existence of a…
We investigate the orientational ordering and close-packing behavior of hard Gaussian overlap (HGO) particles, which are confined into a quasi-one-dimensional (q1D) channel. In the channel, particles are allowed to move along the channel…
