We study the elliptic spin-1/2 Kondo model (spin-1/2 fermions in one dimension with fully anisotropic contact interactions with a magnetic impurity) in the light of mappings to bosonic systems using the fermion-boson correspondence and…
Quasi-localised modes appear in the vibrational spectrum of amorphous solids at low-frequency. Though never formalised, these modes are believed to have a close relationship with other important local excitations, including shear…
We study the deflection and fluctuations of a clamped elastic fiber embedded in 2D foam under quasistatic flow. At all times, the fiber conformation results from the elasto-capillary interactions with the foam. We independently measure the…
The folded node is a singularity associated with loss of normal hyperbolicity in systems where mixtures of slow and fast timescales arise due to singular perturbations. Canards are special solutions that reveal a counteractive feature of…
Linear stability of supersonic flow over a short compression corner with ramp angles 30 and 42 is investigated using Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) and Linear Stability Theory (LST) at Mach number 3, Reynolds number 11,200 and low…
Anisotropic particles oriented in a specific direction can act as artificial atoms and molecules, and their controlled assembly can result in a wide variety of ordered structures. Towards this, we demonstrate the orientation transitions of…
A kinetic Monte Carlo approach is applied to study physical mechanisms responsible for the breakup of nanowires with the diamond cubic crystal structure into a chain of nanoparticles discovered in preceding experiments on Silicon nanowires.…
We present a comprehensive rheological study of a suspension of thermosensitive particles dispersed in water. The volume fraction of these particles can be adjusted by the temperature of the system in a continuous fashion. Due to the finite…
Quantum bits based on Majorana zero modes are expected to be robust against certain noise types, and hence provide a quantum computing platform that is superior to conventional qubits. This robustness is not complete though: imperfections…
We explore the ground-state physics of two-dimensional spin-$1/2$ $U(1)$ quantum link models, one of the simplest non-trivial lattice gauge theories with fermionic matter within experimental reach for quantum simulations. Whereas in the…
The time elapsed model describes the firing activity of an homogeneous assembly of neurons thanks to the distribution of times elapsed since the last discharge. It gives a mathematical description of the probability density of neurons…
We numerically study the evolution of the vibrational density of states $D(\omega)$ of zero-temperature glasses when their kinetic stability is varied over an extremely broad range, ranging from poorly annealed glasses obtained by…
We reconstruct a closed denoised curve from an unstructured and highly noisy 2D point cloud. Our proposed method uses a two- pass approach: Previously recovered manifold connectivity is used for ordering noisy samples along this manifold…
Hierarchical dynamics in glass-forming systems span multiple timescales, from fast vibrations to slow structural rearrangements, appearing in both supercooled fluids and glassy states. Understanding how these diverse processes interact…
We build a minimal, mean-field, model of plasticity of amorphous solids, based upon a phenomenology of dissipative events derived, in a preceding paper [A. Lemaitre, C. Caroli, arXiv:0705.0823] from extensive molecular simulations. It…
Unlike classical fluids, a quantum Fermi liquid can support a long-lived and propagating shear sound wave at arbitrarily small wave vectors and frequencies, reminiscent of the transverse sound in crystals, despite lacking any form of…
The dynamics of individual DNA molecules in semidilute solutions undergoing planar extensional flow is simulated using a multi-particle Brownian dynamics algorithm, which incorporates hydrodynamic and excluded volume interactions in the…
We review the theory of second--order (ferro--)elastic phase transitions, where the order parameter consists of a certain linear combination of strain tensor components, and the accompanying soft mode is an acoustic phonon. In…
We investigate the collective plasmonic modes of metal nano-particles in periodic two-dimensional (2D) arrays within a point-dipole description. As an open system, the full-dynamic dispersion relations of the 2D arrays are obtained through…
This work considers the transition to unsteadiness in the wake of 2D slender bodies, and questions the relevance of the generally accepted scenario involving a region of absolute instability within the near wake. The case of a thin plate at…
