A simple proof is given of the classical result due to Fatkullin and Slastikov (2005), Liu, Zhang and Zhang (2005) that critical points for the Onsager functional with the Maier-Saupe molecular interaction are axisymmetric, including the…

We study the bifurcation diagram of the Onsager free-energy func- tional for liquid crystals with orientation parameter on the sphere in three dimensions. In particular, we concentrate on a very general class of two- body interaction…

We study stationary solutions of McKean-Vlasov equation on a high-dimensional sphere and other compact Riemannian manifolds. We extend the equivalence of the energetic problem formulation to the manifold setting and characterize critical…

Describing the complex landscape of infinite-dimensional free energy is generally a challenging problem. This difficulty arises from the existence of numerous minimizers and, consequently, a vast number of saddle points. These factors make…

The mixed spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 Ising model on the extended Kagom\'e lattice is solved by establishing a mapping correspondence with the eight-vertex model. Letting the parameter of uniaxial single-ion anisotropy tend to infinity, the model…

The mixed spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 Ising model on the union jack lattice is solved by establishing a mapping correspondence with the eight-vertex model. It is shown that the model under investigation becomes exactly soluble as a free-fermion…

We introduce and analyze free energy landscapes defined by associating to any point inside the sphere a free energy calculated on a thin spherical band around it, using many orthogonal replicas. This allows us to reinterpret, rigorously…

We show that soft spheres interacting with a linear ramp potential when overcompressed beyond the jamming point fall in an amorphous solid phase which is critical, mechanically marginally stable and share many features with the jamming…

We calculate electrostatic potential landscapes for an external probe charge in the presence of a set of metallic islands. Our numerical calculation in three dimensions (3D)uses an efficient grid relaxation technique. The well-known…

We analyze the landscape of general smooth Gaussian functions on the sphere in dimension $N$, when $N$ is large. We give an explicit formula for the asymptotic complexity of the mean number of critical points of finite and diverging index…

An alternative formula for the partition function of the Goulden-Harer-Jackson matrix model is derived, in which the Penner and the orthogonal Penner partition functions are special cases of this formula. Then the free energy that computes…

We investigate critical points of a Landau-de Gennes (LdG) free energy in three-dimensional (3D) cuboids, that model nematic equilibria. We develop a hybrid saddle dynamics-based algorithm to efficiently compute solution landscapes of these…

We study the saddle-points of the $p$-spin model -- the best understood example of a `complex' (rugged) landscape -- when its $N$ variables are complex. These points are the solutions to a system of $N$ random equations of degree $p-1$. We…

We calculate the average number of critical points $\overline{\mathcal{N}}$ of the energy landscape of a many-body system with disordered two-body interactions and a weak on-site potential. We find that introducing a weak nonlinear on-site…

Unstructured point clouds with varying sizes are increasingly acquired in a variety of environments through laser triangulation or Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR). Predicting a scalar response based on unstructured point clouds is a…

We study the energy landscape of a model of a single particle on a random potential, that is, we investigate the topology of level sets of smooth random fields on $\mathbb R^{N}$ of the form $X_N(x) +\frac\mu2 \|x\|^2,$ where $X_{N}$ is a…

Using a generalisation of an Onsager type approach, we are able to predict a dielectric permittivity profile of an inhomogeneous dipolar fluid in the presence of a dielectric interface. The reaction and cavity fields are calculated…

Numerical methods are used to examine the thermodynamic characteristics of the two-dimensional Ising model as a function of the number of spins N. Onsager's solution is generalized to a finite-size lattice, and experimentally validated…

We investigate cosmologies with an arbitrary number of scalars and the most general multi-exponential potential. By formulating the equations of motion in terms of autonomous systems we complete the classification of power-law and de Sitter…

We study the nonconvex optimization landscapes of synchronization problems on spheres. First, we present new results for the statistical problem of synchronization over the two-element group $\mathbf{Z}_2$. We consider the nonconvex…
