We provide comprehensive details of how a previously overlooked entropic, or low-temperature Casimir contribution, W_{C}, to the total binding potential for three-dimensional short-ranged wetting may be determined from a microscopic Landau-...

The impact between a spherical shell (a table-tennis ball, in practice) and a compliant silicone surface is studied. Experimentally, the potential for achieving higher reflected angular velocity on a compliant surface compared to a rigid on...

We propose a threshold model of language competition which includes an intermediate bilingual state. The model is based on the Minett-Wang model but through the introduction of thresholds in the language shift rates, it incorporates the eff...

Given an evolutionary model, such as Wright-Fisher or Moran, the n-coalescent problem consists of going backward in time to find, for example, the time to the most recent common ancestor (MRCA) and the topology of the tree. In the literatur...

The token-based Brownian circuit harnesses the Brownian motion of particles for computation. The conservative join (CJoin) is a circuit element that synchronizes two Brownian particles, and its realization using repelling particles, such as...

Using extensive Monte Carlo (MC) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, we investigate how spatial confinement reorganizes thin films of the twist-bend nematic (N_{TB}). Confinement markedly amplifies otherwise elusive splay-bend order by...

We investigate the search of a target with a given spatial distribution in a finite one-dimensional domain. The searcher follows Brownian dynamics and is always reset to its initial position when reaching the boundaries of the domain (bound...

We investigate the nonequilibrium dynamics of active matter using a two-dimensional active Brownian particles model. In these systems, self-propelled particles undergo motility-induced phase separation (MIPS), spontaneously segregating into...

The shear response of polyelectrolytes in solutions drives distinct microscopic conformational dynamics whose correlation with macroscopic rheological properties remains an open question. Using large-scale, fully atomistic molecular dynamic...

Mean squared displacement has been widely used as the primary metric for comparing quantum and classical random walks, with quantum walks showing quadratic scaling versus linear scaling for classical walks. However, this comparison may not ...
