In this work, we demonstrate that a functional modeling the self-aggregation of stochastically distributed lipid molecules can be obtained as the $\Gamma$-limit of a family of discrete energies driven by a sequence of independent and…
We analyze minimizers of the Lawrence-Doniach energy for three-dimensional highly anisotropic superconductors with layered structure. For such a superconductor occupying a bounded generalized cylinder in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with equally spaced…
We consider a nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with focusing nonlinearity of power type on a star graph ${\mathcal G}$, written as $ i \partial_t \Psi (t) = H \Psi (t) - |\Psi (t)|^{2\mu}\Psi (t)$, where $H$ is the selfadjoint operator…
We study the effective elastic behavior of incompatibly prestrained plates, where the prestrain is independent of thickness as well as uniform through the thickness. We model such plates as three-dimensional elastic bodies with a prescribed…
In this paper, we investigate a variational polycrystalline model in finite crystal plasticity with one active slip system and rigid elasticity. The task is to determine inner and outer bounds on the domain of the constrained macroscopic…
We study the (near or close to) ground state distribution of N softly repelling particles trapped in the interior of a spherical box. The charges mutually interact via an inverse power law potential of the form $1/r^\gamma$. We study three…
We address finite crystallization in two dimensions in the presence of a flat crystalline substrate. Particles interact through short-range two- and three-body potentials favoring local square-lattice arrangements. An additional interaction…
We introduce a homogenization approach to characterize the dynamical response of a generic dispersive spacetime crystal in the long-wavelength limit. The theory is applied to dispersive spacetime platforms with a travelling-wave modulation.…
Astrophysical discs which are sufficiently massive and cool are linearly unstable to the formation of axisymmetric structures. In practice, linearly stable discs of surface density slightly below the threshold needed for this instability…
On a star graph made of $N \geq 3$ halflines (edges) we consider a Schr\"odinger equation with a subcritical power-type nonlinearity and an attractive delta interaction located at the vertex. From previous works it is known that there…
Let $K$ be a convex polyhedron and $\mathscr F$ its Wulff energy, and let $\mathscr C(K)$ denote the set of convex polyhedra close to $K$ whose faces are parallel to those of $K$. We show that, for sufficiently small $\epsilon$, all…
We study the energy of a ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic frustrated spin system with values on two disjoint circumferences of the 3-dimensional unit sphere in a one-dimensional and two-dimensional domain. It consists on the sum of a term…
We derive a hierarchy of plate theories for heterogeneous multilayers from three dimensional nonlinear elasticity by means of $\Gamma$-convergence. We allow for layers composed of different materials whose constitutive assumptions may vary…
Spherical particles confined to a sphere surface cannot pack densely into a hexagonal lattice without defects. In this study, we use hard particle Monte Carlo simulations to determine the effects of continuously deformable shape anisotropy…
An array of spheres descending slowly through a viscous fluid always clumps [J.M. Crowley, J. Fluid Mech. {\bf 45}, 151 (1971)]. We show that anisotropic particle shape qualitatively transforms this iconic instability of collective…
A previous work [1] experimentally confirmed that the special polarization characteristic features of a three-dimensional terahertz (THz) photonic crystal with a silicon inverse diamond structure whose lattice point shape was vacant regular…
We derive bounds on the deformation parameter of the $\kappa$-spacetime by analyzing the effect of non-commutativity on astrophysical model. We study compact stars, taken to be degenerate Fermi gas, in non-commutative spacetime. Using tools…
We present a new systematic way of setting up galactic gas disks based on the assumption of detailed hydrodynamic equilibrium. To do this, we need to specify the density distribution and the velocity field which supports the disk. We first…
Disks of collisionless particles are important models for certain galaxies and accretion disks in astrophysics. We present here a solution to the stationary axisymmetric Einstein equations which represents an infinitesimally thin dust disk…
The dynamics of non-spherical rigid particles immersed in an axisymmetric random flow is studied analytically. The motion of the particles is described by Jeffery's equation; the random flow is Gaussian and has short correlation time.The…
