Surface critical behaviour near the uniaxial Lifshitz point of the axial next-nearest-neighbour Ising model
1999
The semi-infinite axial next-nearest-neighbour Ising (ANNNI) model in the disordered phase is treated within a molecular-field approximation, and the singularities of various response functions characterizing the critical behaviour at the surface are obtained. In previous work (Binder K and Frisch H L 1999 Eur. Phys. J. B 10 71) the axis where a nearest-neighbour ferromagnetic (J 1 ) and next-nearest-neighbour antiferromagnetic (J 2 ) exchange compete was chosen perpendicular to the surface plane. In the present work we consider an orientation of this axis parallel to the surface, allowing also for different values of these exchange interactions (j 1 ,j 2 ) in the surface plane. We derive t…
Desingularization Theory and Bifurcation of Non-elementary Limit Periodic Sets
1998
In the study of the Bogdanov-Takens unfolding, we introduced in 4.3.5.2 the following formulas of rescaling in the phase-space and in the parameter space: $$ x = {r^2}\bar x,y = {r^3}\bar y,\mu = - {r^4},\nu = {r^2}\bar \nu . $$
Connection between the pinch technique and the background field method
1995
The connection between the pinch technique and the background field method is further explored. We show by explicit calculations that the application of the pinch technique in the framework of the background field method gives rise to exactly the same results as in the linear renormalizable gauges. The general method for extending the pinch technique to the case of Green's functions with off-shell fermions as incoming particles is presented. As an example, the one-loop gauge independent quark self-energy is constructed. We briefly discuss the possibility that the gluonic Green's functions, obtained by either method, correspond to physical quantities.
Direct Observation in 3d of Structural Crossover in Binary Hard Sphere Mixtures
2016
For binary fluid mixtures of spherical particles in which the two species are sufficiently different in size, the dominant wavelength of oscillations of the pair correlation functions is predicted to change from roughly the diameter of the large species to that of the small species along a sharp crossover line in the phase diagram [C. Grodon, M. Dijkstra, R. Evans & R. Roth, J.Chem.Phys. 121, 7869 (2004)]. Using particle-resolved colloid experiments in 3d we demonstrate that crossover exists and that its location in the phase diagram is in quantitative agreement with the results of both theory and our Monte-Carlo simulations. In contrast with previous work [J. Baumgartl, R. Dullens, M. …
Metastability of Traffic Flow in Zero-Range Model
2007
The development of traffic jams in vehicular flow is an everyday example of the occurence of phase separation in low-dimensional driven systems, a topic which has attracted much recent interest [1–4]. In [5] the existence of phase separation is related to the size-dependence of domain currents and a quantitative criterion is obtained by considering the zero-range process (ZRP) as a generic model for domain dynamics. We use zero-range picture to study the phase separation in traffic flow in the spirit of the probabilistic (master equation) description of transportation [6]. Significantly, we find [7] that prior to condensation studied in previous works [8, 9] the system can exist in a homoge…
Molecular correlation functions for uniaxial ellipsoids in the isotropic state
2006
We perform event-driven molecular dynamics simulations of a system composed by uniaxial hard ellipsoids for different values of the aspect-ratio and packing fraction . We compare the molecular orientational-dependent structure factors previously calculated within the Percus-Yevick approximation with the numerical results. The agreement between theoretical and numerical results is rather satisfactory. We also show that, for specific orientational quantities, the molecular structure factors are sensitive to the particle shape and can be used to distinguish prolate from oblate ellipsoids. A first-order theoretical expansion around the spherical shape and a geometrical analysis of the configura…
Dynamic Phase Diagram of the REM
2019
International audience; By studying the two-time overlap correlation function, we give a comprehensive analysis of the phase diagram of the Random Hopping Dynamics of the Random Energy Model (REM) on time-scales that are exponential in the volume. These results are derived from the convergence properties of the clock process associated to the dynamics and fine properties of the simple random walk in the $n$-dimensional discrete cube.
Feynman-diagramme als vektorsysteme invariantentheoretisch behandelt (compton-streuung, elektron-positron-vernichtung
1985
Employing a special contact transformation devised by S. Lie, which takes spheres into lines, we interpret the Feynman diagrams of photon electron scattering in terms of vector systems. This gives a nice kinematic model of Compton scattering. We further compute in detail the transition probabilities of the Compton scattering process by making use of the calculus of chains of complexes from classical invariant theory rather than applying the usual Dirac-matrix technique. In the final paragraph of this paper an application of our calculations to the treatment of myon decay is indicated.
Diagrammatic expansion for positive spectral functions beyond GW : Application to vertex corrections in the electron gas
2014
We present a diagrammatic approach to construct self-energy approximations within many-body perturbation theory with positive spectral properties. The method cures the problem of negative spectral functions which arises from a straightforward inclusion of vertex diagrams beyond the GW approximation. Our approach consists of a two-steps procedure: we first express the approximate many-body self-energy as a product of half-diagrams and then identify the minimal number of half-diagrams to add in order to form a perfect square. The resulting self-energy is an unconventional sum of self-energy diagrams in which the internal lines of half a diagram are time-ordered Green's functions whereas those…
Speeding-Up Differential Motion Detection Algorithms Using a Change-Driven Data Flow Processing Strategy
2007
A constraint of real-time implementation of differential motion detection algorithms is the large amount of data to be processed. Full image processing is usually the classical approach for these algorithms: spatial and temporal derivatives are calculated for all pixels in the image despite the fact that the majority of image pixels may not have changed from one frame to the next. By contrast, the data flow model works in a totally different way as instructions are only fired when the data needed for these instructions are available. Here we present a method to speed-up low level motion detection algorithms. This method is based on pixel change instead of full image processing and good spee…
