J. J. Brey 1, M. I. Garcia de Soria 2, P. Maynar 1, 3 Europhysics Letters (EPL) 84 (2008) 24002 A numerical molecular dynamics experiment measuring the two-time correlation function of the transversal velocity field in the homogeneous cooling state of a granular gas is reported. By measuring the decay rate and the amplitude of the correlations, the accuracy of the Landau-Langevin

Considering the terrace-like representation of the sequence alignment problem, we reproduce by

Thomas Jorg 1, Helmut G. Katzgraber 2, Florent Krzakala 3 Physical Review Letters 100 (2008) 197202 We study the existence of a spin-glass phase in a field using Monte Carlo simulations performed along a nontrivial path in the field–temperature plane that must cross any putative de Almeida-Thouless instability line. The method is first tested on the Ising spin glass on a

Z. Burda 1, A. Krzywicki 2, O. C. Martin 3 Physical Review E: Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft Matter Physics 78 (2008) 046106 Multi-agent models have been used in many contexts to study generic collective behavior. Similarly, complex networks have become very popular because of the diversity of growth rules giving rise to scale-free behavior. Here we study adaptive networks where the

Alain Comtet 1, 2, Satya N. Majumdar 1, Sanjib Sabhapandit 1 Journal of Mathematical Physics, Analysis, Geometry 4 (2008) 24 We provide a variational derivation of the limit shape of minimal difference partitions and discuss the link with exclusion statistics.

Florent Krzakala 1, Marco Tarzia 2, Lenka Zdeborová 3 Physical Review Letters 101 (2008) 165702 We study a lattice model of attractive colloids. It is exactly solvable on sparse random graphs. As the pressure and temperature are varied it reproduces many characteristic phenomena of liquids, glasses and colloidal systems such as ideal gel formation, liquid-glass phase coexistence, jamming, or the reentrance

Paul Doukhan 1, 2, Gabriel Lang 3, Sana Louhichi 4, Bernard Ycart 5, 6 Markov Processes and Related Fields 14, 1 (2008) 79-114 A finite range interacting particle system on a transitive graph is considered. Assuming that the dynamics and the initial measure are invariant, the normalized empirical distribution process converges in distribution to a centered diffusion process. As an application, a central limit theorem
