We study the atomistic-to-continuum limit of a class of energy functionals for crystalline materials via Gamma-convergence. We consider energy densities that may depend on interactions between all points of the lattice and we give…
The aim of this work is to provide further insight into the qualitative behavior of mechanical systems that are well described by Lennard-Jones type interactions on an atomistic scale. By means of $\Gamma$-convergence techniques, we study…
Continuum limits are a powerful tool in the study of many-body systems, yet their validity is often unclear when long-range interactions are present. In this work, we rigorously address this issue and put forth an exact representation of…
A homogenization result for a family of integral energies is presented, where the fields are subjected to periodic first order oscillating differential constraints in divergence form. The work is based on the theory of A -quasiconvexity…
Given a discrete set $\Lambda$ in the plane (we will also say a {\em lattice}) and a real number $m\ge 0$, the renormalized energy introduced in \cite{ss1} heuristically describes the interaction energy of unit charges placed at the points…
Direct numerical simulations of mechanical metamaterials are prohibitively expensive due to the separation of scales between the lattice and the macrostructural size. Hence, multiscale continuum analysis plays a pivotal role in the…
This paper aims to extend to Orlicz-Sobolev spaces some results of integral representation for the simultaneous homogenization and dimensional reduction of integral energies defined on fields taking values on a differentiable manifold.…
We propose the fundamental and two dimensional representation of the Lorentz groups on a (3+1)-dimensional hypercubic lattice, from which representations of higher dimensions can be constructed. For the unitary representation of the…
We study the homogenized energy densities of periodic ferromagnetic Ising systems. We prove that, for finite range interactions, the homogenized energy density, identifying the effective limit, is crystalline, i.e. its Wulff crystal is a…
We investigate the formation of polycrystalline structures in a class of particle systems. The atomistic energy is modeled as a sum of particle energies that favor atoms being locally isometric to a reference lattice. The discrete frame…
Discrete lattice models are a cornerstone of quantum many-body physics. They arise as effective descriptions of condensed matter systems and lattice-regularized quantum field theories. Lieb-Robinson bounds imply that if the degrees of…
We study the limit of large volume equilibrium Gibbs measures for a rather general Hamiltonians. In particular we study Hamiltonians which arise in naturally in Nonlinear Elasticity and Hamiltonians (containing surface terms) which arises…
A homogenization result for a family of oscillating integral energies is presented, where the fields under consideration are subjected to first order linear differential constraints depending on the space variable x. The work is based on…
We consider energies on a periodic set ${\mathcal L}$ of ${\mathbb R}^d$ of the form $\sum_{i,j\in{\mathcal L}} a^\varepsilon_{ij}|u_i-u_j|$, defined on spin functions $u_i\in\{0,1\}$, and we suppose that the typical range of the…
The possibility of observing many body localization of ultracold atoms in a one dimensional optical lattice is discussed for random interactions. In the non-interacting limit, such a system reduces to single-particle physics in the absence…
We prove a compactness result for holomorphic curves with boundary on an immersed Lagrangian submanifold with clean self-intersection. As a consequence, we show that the number of intersections of such holomorphic curves with the…
We study minimizers of the two-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau energy with applied magnetic field, between the first and second critical fields. In this regime, minimizing configurations exhibit densely packed hexagonal vortex lattices, called…
We study the exact solution of the two-body problem on a tight-binding one-dimensional lattice, with pairwise interaction potentials which have an arbitrary but finite range. We show how to obtain the full spectrum, the bound and scattering…
We provide a simple proof of the Lieb-Robinson bound and use it to prove the existence of the dynamics for interactions with polynomial decay. We then use our results to demonstrate that there is an upper bound on the rate at which…
We study inhomogeneous 1+1-dimensional quantum many-body systems described by Tomonaga-Luttinger-liquid theory with general propagation velocity and Luttinger parameter varying smoothly in space, equivalent to an inhomogeneous…
