We simulate the t-J model in two dimensions by means of infinite projected entangled-pair states (iPEPS) generalized to arbitrary unit cells, finding results similar to those previously obtained by the density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG) for wide l ...
When adsorbing guest molecules, the porous metal-organic framework MIL-53(Cr) may vary its cell parameters drastically while retaining its crystallinity. A first approach to the thermodynamic analysis of this "framework breathing" consists of comparing the ...
We present results from a numerical investigation of the coiling patterns obtained when a slender elastic rod is deployed onto a moving substrate. The Discrete Elastic Rods method is employed to explore the parameter space, construct phase diagrams, identi ...
We report on large scale finite-temperature Monte Carlo simulations of the classical 120 degrees or e(g) orbital-only model on the simple cubic lattice in three dimensions with a focus towards its critical properties. This model displays a continuous phase ...
The enthalpies of formation of the intermetallic compounds in the Ge-Ni binary system have been determined by calorimetric measurement and first-principles calculations. Based on the results obtained and information available in the literature, the phase d ...
In this work we investigate force-induced desorption of linear polymers in good solvents in non-homogeneous environment, by applying the model of self-avoiding walk on two- and three-dimensional fractal lattices, obtained as generalization of the Sierpinsk ...
We investigate how natural curvature affects the configuration of a thin elastic rod suspended under its own weight, as when a single strand of hair hangs under gravity. We combine precision desktop experiments, numerics, and theoretical analysis to explor ...
We study the phase diagram of an effective ion model of fully ionized hydrogen at ultra-high pressure. We assume that the protons interact with a screened Coulomb potential derived from a static linear response theory. This model accurately reproduces the ...
We report on large scale finite-temperature Monte Carlo simulations of the prototypical classical 120 degrees or e(g) model for orbital ordering on the simple cubic lattice in three dimensions. Our study reveals a continuous phase transition to an orbitall ...

Liquid–liquid phase separation occurs in young mammalian eye lenses and in concentrated solutions of isolated eye lens proteins, and has been linked to some forms of cataract. Here we study theoretically the protein compositions and cloud temperatures of t ...
