We study the equilibrium statistical mechanics of classical two-dimensional Coulomb systems living on a pseudosphere (an infinite surface of constant negative curvature). The Coulomb potential created by one point charge exists and goes to…
We study the classical non-relativistic two-dimensional one-component plasma at Coulomb coupling Gamma=2 on the Riemannian surface known as Flamm's paraboloid which is obtained from the spatial part of the Schwarzschild metric. At this…
In this paper, I consider a thin suspended liquid film, surrounded by a different fluid. Examples of such a system are soap films and liquid crystal films, surrounded by air. They are considered good models for two dimensional fluid…
The existence of attractions between like-charged colloids immersed in ionic solution have been discovered in recent experiments. This phenomenon contradicts the predictions of DLVO theory and indicates a failure of mean field theory. We…
We consider equilibrium statistical mechanics of a simplified model for the ideal conductor electrode in an interface contact with a classical semi-infinite electrolyte, modeled by the two-dimensional Coulomb gas of pointlike $\pm$ unit…
An exact solution is given for a two-dimensional model of a Coulomb gas, more general than the previously solved ones. The system is made of a uniformly charged background, positive particles, and negative particles, on the surface of a…
The Euler--Plateau problem, proposed by \cite{gm}, concerns a soap film spanning a flexible loop. The shapes of the film and the loop are determined by the interactions between the two components. In the present work, the Euler--Plateau…
We study the behavior of the two-dimensional two-component plasma in the presence of some adsorbing impurities. Using a solvable model, we find analytic expressions for the thermodynamic properties of the plasma such as the $n$-body…
We determine exactly the short-distance effective potential between two "guest" charges immersed in a two-dimensional two-component charge-asymmetric plasma composed of positively ($q_1 = +1$) and negatively ($q_2 = -1/2$) charged point…
We study Coulomb drag between the top and bottom surfaces of topological insulator films. We derive a kinetic equation for the thin-film spin density matrix containing the full spin structure of the two-layer system, and analyze the…
The classical two-dimensional one-component plasma is an exactly solvable model, at some special temperature, even when the one-body potential acting on the particles has a quadrupolar term. As a supplement to a recent work of Di Francesco,…
The fundamental "two-fluid" model for describing plasma dynamics is given by the Euler-Maxwell system, in which compressible ion and electron fluids interact with their own self-consistent electromagnetic field. We prove global stability of…
The surface tension of flowing soap films is measured with respect to the film thickness and the concentration of soap solution. We perform this measurement by measuring the curvature of the nylon wires that bound the soap film channel and…
In this paper we study a model for the sedimentation equilibrium of a charged colloidal suspension: the two-dimensional two-component plasma in a gravitational field which is exactly solvable at a special value of the reduced inverse…
We consider the motion of a two-layer thin film that consists of two immiscible viscous fluids and is endowed with an anti-surfactant solute. The presence of such solute particles induces variations of the surface tension and interfacial…
We study the classical two-dimensional one-component plasma of $N$ positively charged point particles, interacting via the Coulomb potential and confined by an external potential. For the specific inverse temperature $\beta=1$ (in our…
We present a quasi-two dimensional model of flowing soap films that bears striking similarity to the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. The variation in soap film thickness that is commonly used for flow visualization in experiments is…
Ionic electro-active polymers (E.A.P.) can be used as sensors or actuators. For this purpose, a thin film of polyelectrolyte is saturated with a solvent and sandwiched between two platinum electrodes. The solvent causes a complete…
The solvation of charged, nanometer-sized spherical solutes in water, and the effective, solvent-induced force between two such solutes are investigated by constant temperature and pressure Molecular Dynamics simulations of model solutes…
The two-dimensional one-component plasma ---2dOCP--- is a system composed by $n$ mobile particles with charge $q$ over a neutralizing background in a two-dimensional surface. The Boltzmann factor of this system, at temperature $T$, takes…
