Kabir Ramola 1 Satya N. Majumdar 1 Gregory Schehr 1 Physical Review E : Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft Matter Physics, American Physical Society, 2015, 91, pp.042131 We study the one dimensional branching Brownian motion starting at the origin and investigate the correlation between the rightmost ($X_{\max}\geq 0$) and leftmost ($X_{\min} \leq 0$) visited sites up […]

Gabriel Tellez 1 Emmanuel Trizac 2 Physical Review E : Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft Matter Physics, American Physical Society, 2015, 92, pp.042134 The possibility that like-charges can attract each other under the mediation of mobile counterions is by now well documented experimentally, numerically, and analytically. Yet, obtaining exact results is in general impossible, or restricted

G. Bimonte 1 T. Emig 2, 3 M. Kardar 4 Physics Letters B, Elsevier, 2015, 743, pp.138 The exact critical Casimir force between periodically deformed boundaries of a 2D semi-infinite strip is obtained for conformally invariant classical systems. Only two parameters (conformal charge and scaling dimension of a boundary changing operator), along withthe solution of

Nicolas Chiaruttini 1 Lorena Redondo-Morata 2 Adai Colom 1, 2, 3 Frédéric Humbert 1 Martin Lenz 4, * Simon Scheuring 2, * Aurélien Roux 1, 3, * Cell, Elsevier, 2015, <10.1016/j.cell.2015.10.017> 13 ESCRT-III is required for lipid membrane remodeling in many cellular processes, from abscission 14 to viral budding and multi-vesicular body biogenesis. However, how

A. Iu. Gudyma 1 G. E. Astrakharchik 2 Mikhail B. Zvonarev 1 Physical Review A, American Physical Society, 2015, 92, pp.021601 We calculate the breathing mode frequency $\omega$ in a one-dimensional Bose gas confined to a harmonic trap of frequency $\omega_z$. We predict Exciting temporal oscillations of the density distribution is a high-precision method for

Claude Godreche 1 Satya N. Majumdar 2 Gregory Schehr 2 Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, IOP Science, 2015 We investigate the statistics of records in a random sequence $\{x_B(0)=0,x_B(1),\cdots, x_B(n)=x_B(0)=0\}$ of $n$ time steps. The sequence $x_B(k)$’s represents the position at step $k$ of a random walk `bridge’ of $n$ steps that starts

Satya N. Majumdar 1 Sanjib Sabhapandit 2 Gregory Schehr 1 Physical Review E : Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft Matter Physics, American Physical Society, 2015, 92, pp.052126 We study analytically a simple random walk model on a one-dimensional lattice, where at each time step the walker resets to the maximum of the already visited positions (to

Pasquale Calabrese 1 Pierre Le Doussal 2 Satya N. Majumdar 3 Physical Review A, American Physical Society, 2015, pp.012303 We exploit and clarify the use of random matrix theory for the calculation of the entanglement entropy of free Fermi gases. We apply this method to obtain analytic predictions for Renyi entanglement entropies of a one-dimensional

Pablo Rodriguez-Lopez 1 Wang-Kong Tse 2 Diego A. R. Dalvit 2 Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, Institute of Physics: Hybrid Open Access, 2015, 27, pp.214019 We compute the radiative heat transfer between two sheets of 2D Dirac materials, including topological Chern insulators and graphene, within the framework of the local approximation for the optical response

Silvio Franz 1 Giorgio Parisi 2 Pierfrancesco Urbani 3, 1 Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, IOP Publishing, 2015, 48, pp.19FT01 We introduce a quasi-equilibrium formalism in the theory of liquids in order to obtain a set of coarse grained long time dynamical equations for the two point density correlation functions. Our scheme allows
