Mean field-like approximations (including naive mean field, Bethe and Kikuchi and more general Cluster Variational Methods) are known to stabilize ordered phases at temperatures higher than the thermodynamical transition. For example, in…
We establish the mean-field convergence for systems of points evolving along the gradient flow of their interaction energy when the interaction is the Coulomb potential or a super-coulombic Riesz potential, for the first time in arbitrary…
The recent discussions by Koci\'c and Kogut on the nature of the chiral phase transition are reviewed. The mean-field nature of the transition suggested by these authors is supported in random matrix theory by Verbaarschot and Jackson which…
We propose a mean-field (MF) approximation for the recurrence relation governing the dynamics of $m$ species of particles on a square lattice, and we simultaneously perform Monte Carlo (MC) simulations under identical initial conditions to…
The Monte Carlo carbyne model is modified to investigate the glass transition of the semi-flexible entangled polymer chains. The stochastic bombardment between monomers are monitored by Metropolis algorithm with help of the consideration of…
The liquid-gas phase transition and associated instability in two component systems are investigated using a mean field theory. The importance of the role of both the Coulomb force and symmetry energy terms are studied. The addition of the…
A kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) method is used to study the structural properties and dynamics of a supercooled binary Lennard-Jones liquid around the glass transition temperature. This technique permits us to explore the potential energy…
In this talk I review some recent developments which shed light on the main connections between structural glasses and mean-field spin glass models with a discontinuous transition. I also discuss the role of quantum fluctuations on the…
We propose a mean field (MF) theory for a homogeneously driven granular gas of inelastic particles with Coulomb friction. The model contains three parameters, a normal restitution coefficient $r_n$, a maximum tangential restitution…
We propose a novel computational strategy to study the glass transition of molecular fluids. Our approach combines the construction of simple yet realistic models with the development of Monte Carlo algorithms to accelerate equilibration…
We report measurements of the real and imaginary parts of the AC conductivity in the quantum limit, \hbar \omega > k_B T of insulating nominally uncompensated n-type silicon. The observed frequency dependence shows evidence for a crossover…
Monte Carlo simulations are widely employed to measure the physical properties of glass-forming liquids in thermal equilibrium. Combined with local Monte Carlo moves, the Metropolis algorithm can also be used to simulate the relaxation…
We have studied the nonlinear conductivity of two-dimensional Coulomb glasses. We have used a Monte Carlo algorithm to simulate the dynamic of the system under an applied electric field $E$. We found that in the nonlinear regime the site…
The non-equilibrium relaxational properties of a three dimensional Coulomb glass model are investigated by kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. Our results suggest a transition from stationary to non-stationary dynamics at the equilibrium glass…
A mean-field model to describe electron transfer processes in ion-molecule collisions at the $\hbar =0$ level is presented and applied to collisions involving water and ammonia molecules. Multicenter model potentials account for the…
We study a solution of interacting semiflexible polymers with curvature energy in poor-solvent conditions on the d-dimensional cubic lattice using mean-field theory and Monte Carlo computer simulations. Building upon past studies on a…
We present a Monte Carlo numerical investigation of the Hamiltonian Mean Field (HMF) model. We begin by discussing canonical Metropolis Monte Carlo calculations, in order to check the caloric curve of the HMF model and study finite size…
Large ensembles of points with Coulomb interactions arise in various settings of condensed matter physics, classical and quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, random matrices and even approximation theory, and give rise to a variety of…
A recent reformulation [1] of the problem of Coulomb gases in the presence of a dynamical dielectric medium showed that finite temperature simulations of such systems can be accomplished on the basis of completely local Hamiltonians on a…
The low-temperature quasi-universal behavior of amorphous solids has been attributed to the existence of spatially-localized tunneling defects found in the low-energy regions of the potential energy landscape. Computational models of…
