We study the thermodynamic behavior of hard rigid rods of size $k$ (i.e., $k$-mers) on four- and six-coordinated Husimi lattices (HLs), respectively built with squares (square HL) and triangles (triangular HL). In both lattices, dimers…
We determine the asymptotic behavior of the entropy of full coverings of a $L \times M$ square lattice by rods of size $k\times 1$ and $1\times k$, in the limit of large $k$. We show that full coverage is possible only if at least one of…
Using the transfer matrix technique, we estimate the entropy for a gas of rods of sizes equal to k (named k-mers), which cover completely a square lattice. Our calculations were made considering three different constructions, using…
We consider the number of ways all the sites of a kagome lattice can be covered by non-overlapping linear rigid rods where each rod covers 3 sites. We establish a 2-to-1 correspondence between the configurations of trimers on the kagome…
We study the Bethe approximation for a system of long rigid rods of fixed length k, with only excluded volume interaction. For large enough k, this system undergoes an isotropic-nematic phase transition as a function of density of the rods.…
We consider the entropy of polydisperse chains placed on a lattice. In particular, we study a model for equilibrium polymerization, where the polydispersivity is determined by two activities, for internal and endpoint monomers of a chain.…
Random sequential adsorption of straight rigid rods of length $k$ ($k$-mers) on a simple cubic lattice has been studied by numerical simulations and finite-size scaling analysis. The calculations were performed by using a new theoretical…
We study the different phases of a system of monodispersed hard rods of length $k$ on a cubic lattice using an efficient cluster algorithm which can simulate densities close to the fully-packed limit. For $k\leq 4$, the system is disordered…
The percolation behavior of aligned rigid rods of length $k$ ($k$-mers) on two-dimensional triangular lattices has been studied by numerical simulations and finite-size scaling analysis. The $k$-mers, containing $k$ identical units (each…
We study the percolation and jamming of rods ($k$-mers) on a square lattice that contains defects. The point defects are placed randomly and uniformly on the substrate before deposition of the rods. The general case of unequal probabilities…
We obtain the entropy of flexible linear chains composed of M monomers placed on the square lattice using a transfer matrix approach. An excluded volume interaction is included by considering the chains to be self-and mutually avoiding, and…
A system of hard rigid rods of length $k$ on hypercubic lattices is known to undergo two phases transitions when chemical potential is increased: from a low density isotropic phase to an intermediate density nematic phase, and on further…
Numerical simulations by means of Monte Carlo method and finite-size scaling analysis have been performed to study the percolation behavior of linear $k$-mers (also denoted in the literature as rigid rods, needles, sticks) on…
Numerical simulations and finite-size scaling analysis have been carried out to study the percolation behavior of straight rigid rods of length $k$ ($k$-mers) on two-dimensional square lattices. The $k$-mers, containing $k$ identical units…
We study the phase transition from a nematic phase to a high-density disordered phase in systems of long rigid rods of length $k$ on the square and triangular lattices. We use an efficient Monte Carlo scheme that partly overcomes the…
Numerical simulations and finite-size scaling analysis have been carried out to study standard and inverse percolation of straight rigid rods on triangular lattices. In the case of standard (inverse) percolation, the lattice is initially…
Jamming phenomena on a square lattice are investigated for two different models of anisotropic random sequential adsorption (RSA) of linear $k$-mers (particles occupying $k$ adjacent adsorption sites along a line). The length of a $k$-mer…
Trimers are chains formed by two lattice edges, and therefore three monomers. We consider trimers placed on the square lattice, the edges belonging to the same trimer are either colinear, forming a straight rod with unitary statistical…
We argue that a system of straight rigid rods of length k on square lattice with only hard-core interactions shows two phase transitions as a function of density, rho, for k >= 7. The system undergoes a phase transition from the low-density…
We compute the entropy of entanglement in the ground states of a general class of quantum spin-chain Hamiltonians - those that are related to quadratic forms of Fermi operators - between the first N spins and the rest of the system in the…
