By combining the nonconserved spin-flip dynamics driving ferromagnetic ordering with the conserved Kawasaki-exchange dynamics driving phase segregation, we perform Monte Carlo simulations of the nearest neighbor Ising model. Such a set up…
Background: At energies near the Coulomb barrier, capture reactions in heavy-ion collisions result either in fusion or in quasifission. The former produces a compound nucleus in statistical equilibrium, while the second leads to a…
The mean-field limit of interacting diffusions without exchangeability, caused by weighted interactions and non-i.i.d. initial values, are investigated. The weights could be signed and unbounded. The result applies to a large class of…
By using the Kirkwood formula, the friction coefficient of a solvated Brownian particle is determined from the integration on time of the autocorrelation function of the force that the solvent exerts on this particle. Extensive molecular…
The nonperturbative nature of inter-nucleon interactions is explored by varying the momentum cutoff of a two-nucleon potential. Conventional force models, which have large cutoffs, are nonperturbative because of strong short-range…
Using a novel theoretical approach, we study the mean first encounter time (MFET) between the two ends of a polymer. Previous approaches used various simplifications that reduced the complexity of the problem, leading, however to…
Dynamical buildup of spin-singlet correlations between the two quantum dots is investigated by means of the time-dependent numerical renormalization group method. By calculating the timeevolution of the spin-spin expectation value upon a…
We investigate the kinetics of loop formation in flexible ideal polymer chains (Rouse model), and polymers in good and poor solvents. We show for the Rouse model, using a modification of the theory of Szabo, Schulten, and Schulten, that the…
We develop a simple but rigorous model of protein-protein association kinetics based on diffusional association on free energy landscapes obtained by sampling configurations within and surrounding the native complex binding funnels. Guided…
Using event-driven kinetic Monte-Carlo simulations we investigate the early stage of non-equilibrium surface growth in a generic model with anisotropic interactions among the adsorbed particles. Specifically, we consider a two-dimensional…
A novel combination of discontinuous molecular dynamics and the Langevin equation, together with an intermediate-resolution model, are used to carry out long (several $\mu$s) simulation and study folding transition and transport of proteins…
The large-time asymptotics of weak solutions to Maxwell--Stefan diffusion systems for chemically reacting fluids with different molar masses and reversible reactions are investigated. The diffusion matrix of the system is generally neither…
The effect of interactions on dynamics of coupled motor proteins is investigated theoretically. A simple stochastic discrete model, that allows to calculate explicitly the dynamic properties of the system, is developed. It is shown that…
The viscosity dependence of the folding rates for four sequences (the native state of three sequences is a beta-sheet, while the fourth forms an alpha-helix) is calculated for off-lattice models of proteins. Assuming that the dynamics is…
I study the absorbing-state phase transition in the one-dimensional contact process with mobile disorder. In this model the dilution sites, though permanently inactive, diffuse freely, exchanging positions with the other sites, which host a…
Starting from the reported experimental evidence that the residence time of contacts between the ends of biopolymers is length dependent, we investigate the kinetics of contact breaking in simple polymer models from a theoretical point of…
A prototype statistical model for the etching of a random solid is investigated in order to assess the influence of disorder and temperature on the dissolution kinetics. At low temperature, the kinetics is dominated by percolation…
We present a theoretical analysis of frictional transitions along the Stribeck curve for rough elastic contacts lubricated by a Newtonian fluid. Building on the mean-field framework of Persson and Scaraggi (J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 21…
We expand on a recent study of a lattice model of interacting particles [Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, 110601 (2013)]. The adsorption isotherm and equilibrium fluctuations in particle number are discussed as a function of the interaction. Their…
We investigate the one-dimensional pair contact process with diffusion (PCPD) by extensive Monte Carlo simulations, mainly focusing on the critical density decay exponent $\delta$. To obtain an accurate estimate of $\delta$, we first find…
