A rigorous quantum description of molecular dynamics with a particular emphasis on internal observables is developed accounting explicitly for kinetic couplings between nuclei and electrons. Rotational modes are treated in a genuinely quantum framework by ...
Rheological properties of dense flows of hard particles are singular as one approaches the jamming threshold where flow ceases both for aerial granular flows dominated by inertia and for over-damped suspensions. Concomitantly, the length scale characterizi ...
We prove that the critical Maxwell-Klein-Gordon equation on R4+1 is globally well-posed for smooth initial data which are small in the energy norm. This reduces the problem of global regularity for large, smooth initial data to precluding concentration of ...
A theory for the microscopic structure and the vibrational properties of soft sphere glass at finite temperature is presented. With an effective potential, derived here, the phase diagram and vibrational properties are worked out around the Maxwell critica ...
In this report we present results of a Semester project in the Winter semester of 2015. The project focuses on exploration of FRI theory for 1D case and its generalization. This theory is further applied to sound source localization with extension to signa ...
We drive an explict expression for the resonance frequency shift for a subwavelength plasmonic nanocavity upon the adsorption or trapping of a single nanoparticle using rigorous perturbation theory. It reveals a simple linear dependence of the resonance fr ...
The segmentation of the vertebrate body plan during embryonic development is a rhythmic and sequential process governed by genetic oscillations. These genetic oscillations give rise to traveling waves of gene expression in the segmenting tissue. Here we pr ...
We use the coset construction of low-energy effective actions to systematically derive Wess-Zumino (WZ) terms for fluid and isotropic solid systems in two, three, and four spacetime dimensions. We recover the known WZ term for fluids in two dimensions as w ...
We report on a new topological vortex solution in U(1) x U(1) Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory. The existence of the vortex is envisaged by analytical means, and a numerical solution is obtained by integrating the equations of motion. These vortices have a long ...
In this work, we derive a method to perform trajectory-based nonadiabatic dynamics that is able to describe both nonadiabatic transitions and intersystem crossing events (transitions between states of different spin-multiplicity) at the same level of theor ...
