Anthony Perret 1 Gregory Schehr 1 Journal of Statistical Physics, Springer Verlag (Germany), 2014, 156, pp.843-876 We study the phenomenon of « crowding » near the largest eigenvalue $\lambda_{\max}$ of random $N \times N$ matrices belonging to the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE) of random matrix theory. We focus on two distinct quantities: (i) the density of states […]

Pierre Ronceray 1, 2 Peter Harrowell 3 Physical Review Letters, American Physical Society, 2014, 112, pp.017801 We present here a numerical study of a lattice model of a chiral liquid. The low symmetry of the favoured local structure depresses the freezing point to reveal an exotic liquid-liquid transition characterised by the appearance of an extended

Vivek Kandiah 1 Bertrand Georgeot 1 Olivier Giraud 2 The European Physical Journal B, Springer, 2014, 87, pp.246. <10.1140/epjb/e2014-50497-1> We analyze the game of go from the point of view of complex networks. We construct three different directed networks of increasing complexity, defining nodes as local patterns on plaquettes of increasing sizes, and links as

Alvaro Rojo Bravo 1 Tianyou Yi 2 Natasha Kirova 3, 4 Serguei Brazovskii 1, 3 International school-conference on electronic crystals: ECRYS-2014, Aug 2014, Cargèse, France. 460, pp.16, Physica B: Condensed Matter We derive and study equations for dissipative transient processes in a constraint incommensurate charge density wave (CDW) with remnant pockets or a thermal population

E. A. Jagla 1 François P. Landes 2 Alberto Rosso 2 Physical Review Letters, American Physical Society, 2014, 112, pp.174301 Many complex systems respond to continuous input of energy by accumulation of stress over time and sudden energy releases in the form of avalanches. Avalanches are paradigmatic non-equilibrium phenomena displaying power law size distribution and

E. Trizac 1 A. Prados 1, 2 Physical Review E, American Physical Society, 2014, 90, pp.012204 We evidence a Kovacs-like memory effect in a uniformly driven granular gas. A system of inelastic hard particles, in the low density limit, can reach a non-equilibrium steady state when properly forced. By following a certain protocol for the

S. Franz 1 S. Gupta 1 and all Journal of High Energy Physics (JHEP), 2014, 09, pp.112. <10.1007/JHEP09(2014)112> Measurements of fiducial and differential cross sections are presented for Higgs boson production in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV. The analysis is performed in the $H \rightarrow \gamma\gamma$ decay channel using 20.3 fb$^{-1}$

Anupam Kundu 1 Satya N. Majumdar 1 Gregory Schehr 1 Journal of Statistical Physics, Springer Verlag (Germany), 2014, 157, pp.124-157 We consider $N$ Brownian particles moving on a line starting from initial positions ${\bf{u}}\equiv \{u_1,u_2,\dots u_N\}$ such that $0 1.

Tridib Sadhu 1 Satya N. Majumdar 2 David Mukamel 3 Physical Review E, American Physical Society, 2014, 90, pp.012109 We show that the presence of a driven bond in an otherwise diffusive lattice gas with simple exclusion interaction results in long-range density-density correlation in its stationary state. In dimensions $d>1$ we show that in the

Raoul Santachiara 1 Jacopo Viti 2 Nuclear Physics B, Elsevier, 2014, 882, pp.229-262 We will describe how logarithmic singularities arise as limits of Coulomb Gas integrals. Our approach will combine analytic properties of the time-like Liouville structure constants, together with the recursive formula of the Virasoro conformal blocks. Although the Coulomb Gas formalism forces a
