The simplest statistical mechanics model of a Coulomb plasma in two spatial dimensions admits an exact analytic solution at some special temperature in several (curved) surfaces. We present in a unifying perspective these solutions for the…

A new solution to the mono-dimensional diffusion equation for time-variable first kind boundary condition is presented where the time-variable function at the surface is derived proposing a surface saturation model. This solution may be…

We present a method to obtain upper bounds on covering numbers. As applications of this method, we reprove and generalize results of Rogers on economically covering Euclidean $n$-space with translates of a convex body, or more generally,…

Even though the study of interfacial phenomena dates back to Laplace and was formalised by Gibbs, it appears that some concepts and relations among them are still causing some confusion and debates in the literature, particularly for…

A sponge subjected to an increase of the outside fluid pressure expands its volume but nearly mantains its true density and thus gives way to an increase of the interstitial volume. This behaviour, not yet properly described by solid-fluid…

We derive the energy of the surface between the normal and superfluid components of a mixed phase of a system composed of two particle species with different densities. The surface energy is obtained by the integration of the free energy…

The entropic pressure in the vicinity of a two dimensional square lattice polygon is examined as a model of the entropic pressure near a planar ring polymer. The scaling of the pressure as a function of distance from the polygon and length…

The problem of surface effects at a fluid boundary created by the force field of finite value is investigated. A classical simple fluid with a locally introduced field imitating a permeable solid is considered. The cases of micro- and…

Surface tension has a strong influence on the shape of fluid interfaces. We propose a method to calculate the corresponding forces efficiently. In contrast to several previous approaches, we discriminate to this end between surface and…

We consider the surface pressure of a colloid-laden liquid interface. As micron-sized particles of suitable wettability can be irreversibly bound to the liquid interface on experimental timescales, we use the canonical ensemble to derive an…

We study the adsorption of homogeneous or heterogeneous polymers onto heterogeneous planar surfaces with exponentially decaying site-site correlations, using a variational reference system approach. As a main result, we derive simple…

We examine the performance of several molecular simulation techniques aimed at evaluation of the surface tension through its thermodynamic definition. For all methods explored, the surface tension is calculated by approximating the change…

It is shown that surface of a liquid consisting of several interpenetrating superfluids becomes unstable at some threshold. We demonstrate that the criterion for the onset of the instability changes in the presence of dissipative…

We introduce a novel method for numerical spin glass investigations: Simulations of two replica at fixed temperature, weighted such that a broad distribution of the Parisi overlap parameter $q$ is achieved. Canonical expectation values for…

The equilibrium contact angle of a droplet resting on a solid substrate can reveal essential properties of the solid's surface. However, when the motion of a droplet on a surface shows significant hysteresis, it is generally accepted that…

A closed-form expression is obtained for the density of a simple layer, equipotential to an oblate level ellipsoid of revolution in an outer space. The potential of any level spheroid of positive mass with the inward direction of attracting…

The above comment http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/0953-8984/22/42/428001 and a previous letter by the same author reveal a great misunderstanding of what Eulerian and Lagrangian quantities are, and a confusion between the deformation of an…

We construct a novel model for the steady-state contact angles of liquid droplets at the wetted substrate. The non-removable, thin liquid film covering the substrate is governed by the intermolecular forces between molecules of liquid and…

We study entanglement spectra of gapped states on the surfaces of symmetry-protected topological phases. These surface states carry anomalies that do not allow them to be terminated by a trivial state. Their entanglement spectra are…

In any static spacetime the quasilocal Tolman mass contained within a volume can be reduced to a Gauss-like surface integral involving the flux of a suitably defined generalized surface gravity. By introducing some basic thermodynamics, and…
