François Sausset 1, 2, Dov Levine 1 Physical Review Letters 107 (2011) 045501 We measure and compare three correlation lengths proposed to describe the extent of structural order in amorphous systems. In particular, the recently proposed ‘patch correlation length’ is measured as a function of temperature and fragility and shown to be comparable with other measures. In addition, we demonstrate

Jaffe 1, Mehran Kardar 1 Proceeding of the national academy of sciences 108 (2011) 6867-6871 Casimir forces between conductors at the sub-micron scale cannot be ignored in the design and operation of micro-electromechanical (MEM) devices. However, these forces depend non-trivially on geometry, and existing formulae and approximations cannot deal with realistic

J. Levinsen 1, 2, D. S. Petrov 1, 3 European Physical Journal D 65 (2011) 67-82 We develop a diagrammatic approach for solving few-body problems in heteronuclear fermionic mixtures near a narrow interspecies Feshbach resonance. We calculate s-, p-, and d-wave phaseshifts for the scattering of an atom by a weakly-bound dimer. The fermionic statistics of atoms and the composite nature
Aurelien Decelle 1, Florent Krzakala 2, Cristopher Moore 3, 4, Lenka Zdeborová 5 Physical Review E 84 (2011) 066106 In this paper we extend our previous work on the stochastic block model, a commonly used generative model for social and biological networks, and the problem of inferring functional groups or communities from the topology of the network. We use the cavity method of statistical
Jean Desbois 1, Stephane Ouvry 1 Journal of statistical mechanics-theory and experiment (2011) P05024 The leading and next to leading terms of the average arithmetic area $< S(m)>$ enclosed by $m\to\infty$ independent closed Brownian planar paths, with a given length $t$ and starting from and ending at the same point, is calculated. The leading term is found to be

Michele Castellana 1, 2, Lenka Zdeborová 3 Journal of statistical mechanics-theory and experiment (2011) P03023 We study the adversarial satisfiability problem, where the adversary can choose whether variables are negated in clauses or not in order to make the resulting formula unsatisfiable. This is one case of a general class of adversarial optimization problems that often arise in practice and

Celine Nadal 1, Satya N. Majumdar 1 Journal of statistical mechanics-theory and experiment (2011) P04001 In this paper, we first briefly review some recent results on the distribution of the maximal eigenvalue of a $(N\times N)$ random matrix drawn from Gaussian ensembles. Next we focus on the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE) and by suitably adapting a method of orthogonal
