We propose a systematic procedure for constructing effective models of strongly correlated materials. The parameters, in particular the on-site screened Coulomb interaction U, are calculated from first principles, using the GW…
We propose a nonlocal Ohta-Kawasaki model to study the nonlocal effect on the pattern formation of some binary systems with general long-range interactions. While the nonlocal Ohta-Kawasaki model displays similar bubble patterns as the…
We propose a simple nonlocal energy functional that is suitable for the continuum field characterization of nonperiodic and localized textures. The phenomenological functional is based on the pairwise direction-dependent interaction of…
Computer simulations and theory are used to systematically investigate how the effective force between two big colloidal spheres in a sea of small spheres depends on the basic (big-small and small-small) interactions. The latter are modeled…
We study the induced interaction between multiple probes locally interacting with driven colloids and trapped in a toroidal geometry. The effective binary forces between the probes break the action-reaction principle and their range…
In this paper we consider nonlocal energies defined on probability measures in the plane, given by a convolution interaction term plus a quadratic confinement. The interaction kernel is $-\log|z|+\alpha\, x^2/|z|^2, \; z=x+iy,$ with $-1 <…
Particles dispersed in a liquid crystal above the nematic-isotropic phase transition are wetted by a surface-induced corona of paranematic order. Such coronas give rise to pronounced two-particle interactions. In this article, we report…
In the calculation of hot-plasma atomic structure, the continuum wavefunctions are characterized by phase shifts, which therefore determine the scattering cross-sections. In this short paper, we propose a recurrence relation for the phase…
Structural and thermodynamic properties of ionic fluids are related to those of a simpler ``mimic'' system with short ranged intermolecular interactions in a spatially varying effective field by use of Local Molecular Field (LMF) theory,…
An instantaneous and zero-range spin-dependent interaction, derived by summing an infinite number of electron-hole ladder diagrams within a local approximation, is analyzed as a function of the electron gas density and the relative spin…
While colloids are promising building blocks for the self-assembly of materials with novel microstructures, their numerous tunable parameters inhibit brute force searching for appropriate parameter combinations that yield self-assembly of a…
We study a two-dimensional ternary inhibitory system derived as a sharp-interface limit of the Nakazawa-Ohta density functional theory of triblock copolymers. This free energy functional combines an interface energy favoring micro-domain…
Dynamics of two particles with short range repulsive or attractive interaction is studied numerically in the Harper model. It is shown that interaction leads to appearance of localized states and pure-point spectrum component in the case…
We present a functional renormalization group investigation of an Euclidean three-dimensional matrix Yukawa model with U(N) symmetry, which describes N = 2 Weyl fermions that effectively interact via a short-range repulsive interaction.…
We propose a nonlocal theory of single-particle excitations. It is based on an off-diagonal effective medium and the projection operator method for treating the retarded Green function. The theory determines the nonlocal effective medium…
We investigate the Peierls-Feynman-Bogoliubov variational principle to map Hubbard models with nonlocal interactions to effective models with only local interactions. We study the renormalization of the local interaction induced by…
We show that the support of any local minimizer of the interaction energy consists of isolated points whenever the interaction potential is of class $C^2$ and mildly repulsive at the origin; moreover, if the minimizer is global, then its…
This paper considers Hamiltonians with localised potentials and gives a variational characterisation of resonant coupling parameters, which allow to provide estimates for the first resonant parameter and in turn also to provide bounds for…
Effective attraction between like-charged walls mediated by counterions is studied using local molecular field (LMF) theory. Monte Carlo simulations of the "mimic system'' given by LMF theory, with short-ranged "Coulomb core" interactions…
We establish the $\Gamma$-convergence of some energy functionals describing nonlocal attractive interactions in bounded domains. The interaction potential solves an elliptic equation (local or nonlocal) in the bounded domain and the primary…
