The authors present a study of the non equilibrium statistical properties of a one dimensional hard-rod fluid dissipating energy via inelastic collisions and subject to the action of a Gaussian heat bath, simulating an external driving…

Many dynamic pipe flow simulator tools are capable of predicting the onset of hydrodynamic flow instability through detailed simulation. These instabilities provide a natural mechanism for flow regime transition. The quality and reliability…

An approximate stochastic model for the topological dynamics of the periodic triangular Lorentz gas is constructed. The model, together with an extremum principle, is used to find a closed form approximation to the diffusion coefficient as…

We introduce the ideal Gaussian glass-forming system as a model to describe the thermodynamics and dynamics of supercooled liquids on a local scale in terms of the properties of the potential energy landscape (PEL). The first ingredient is…

Spacetimes with a thin shell offer a framework where both the dynamical stability and the thermodynamical stability of the matter comprising the shell can be consistently studied. In the present work, we consider the dynamical and…

Within the scenario of the potential energy landscape (PEL), a thermodynamic model has been developed to uncover the physics behind the Angell plot. In our model, by separating the barrier distribution in PELs into a Gaussian-like and a…

Ozawa et. al [1] presented numerical results for the configurational entropy density, $s_c$, of a model glass-forming liquid in the presence of random pinning. The location of a "phase boundary" in the pin density ($c$) - temperature ($T$)…

We study the behavior of soliton states for the subcritical, time-dependent focusing NLS equation on a large family of non-compact metric graphs with Kirchhoff boundary conditions. This family is characterized by a topological assumption…

The van der Waals liquid orthoterphenyl has long been used as a model system in the study of the glass transition. Motivated by mode-coupling theory, extensive experiments have been undertaken to monitor the onset of structural relaxation…

We calculate the density of stationary points and minima of a $N\gg 1$ dimensional Gaussian energy landscape. We use it to show that the point of zero-temperature replica symmetry breaking in the equilibrium statistical mechanics of a…

Crystallization is observed during long molecular dynamics simulations of bent trimers, a molecular model proposed by Lewis and Wahnstr\"{o}m for ortho-terphenyl. In the crystal, the three spheres that make up the rigid molecule sit near…

The relaxation dynamics of a model fluid of platelike colloidal particles is investigated by means of a phenomenological dynamic density functional theory. The model fluid approximates the particles within the Zwanzig model of restricted…

This paper is the fourth in a series exploring the physical consequences of the solidity of highly viscous liquids. It is argued that the two basic characteristics of a flow event (a jump between two energy minima in configuration space)…

We employ a canonical variational framework for the predictive characterization of structural instabilities that develop during the diffusion-driven transient swelling of hydrogels under geometrical constraints. The variational formulation…

We review the inherent structure thermodynamical formalism and the formulation of an equation of state for liquids in equilibrium based on the (volume) derivatives of the statistical properties of the potential energy surface. We also show…

We perform a detailed study of the relaxation towards equilibrium in the Hamiltonian Mean-Field (HMF) model, a prototype for long-range interactions in $N$-particle dynamics. In particular, we point out the role played by the infinity of…

We perform successive umbrella sampling grand canonical Monte Carlo computer simulations of the original ST2 model of water in the vicinity of the proposed liquid-liquid critical point, at temperatures above and below the critical…

Given discrete degrees of freedom (spins) on a graph interacting via an energy function, what can be said about the energy local minima and associated inherent structures? Using the lid algorithm in the context of a spin glass energy…

We report extensive simulations of liquid supercooled states for a simple three-sites molecular model, introduced by Lewis and Wahnstr"om [L. J. Lewis and G. Wahnstr"om, Phys. Rev. E 50, 3865 (1994)] to mimic the behavior of…

The classification of the ground-state phases of complex one-dimensional electronic systems is considered in the context of a fixed-point strategy. Examples are multichain Hubbard models, the Kondo-Heisenberg model, and the one-dimensional…
