SUMMARY:Séminaire du LPTMS: David Mukamel - LPTMS\, salle 201\, 2ème éta
 ge\, Bât 100\, Campus d'Orsay - 26 Avr 16 11:00
DESCRIPTION:Mixed order phase transitions: from DNA denaturation to jamming
  processes\n\nDavid Mukamel (Weizmann Institute of Science\, Israël)\nPha
 se transitions of mixed nature\, which on the one hand exhibit a diverging
  correlation length as in second order transitions and on the other hand d
 isplay a discontinuous order parameter as in first order transitions have 
 been observed in a diverse classes of physical systems. Examples include D
 NA denaturation\, models of wetting\, glass and jamming transitions\, rewi
 ring networks  and some one-dimensional models with long-range interactio
 ns. An exactly soluble Ising model which provides a link between some of t
 hese rather distinct classes of systems is introduced. Renormalization gro
 up analysis which provides a common framework for studying some of these s
 ystems\, elucidating the relation between them will be discussed as well a
 s the extreme value statistics of the locally ordered domains that charact
 erize the various phases.
