On Chemisorption of Polymers to Solid Surfaces

The irreversible adsorption of polymers to a two-dimensional solid surface is studied. An operator formalism is introduced for chemisorption from a polydisperse solution of polymers which transforms the analysis of the adsorption process to a set of combinatorial problems on a two-dimensional lattice. The time evolution of the number of polymers attached and the surface area covered are calculated via a series expansion. The dependence of the final coverage on the parameters of the model (i.e. the parameters of the distribution of polymer lengths in the solution) is studied. Various methods for accelerating the convergence of the resulting infinite series are considered. To demonstrate the accuracy of the truncated series approach, the series expansion results are compared with the results of stochastic simulation.     

Efficiency of the Incomplete Enumeration Algorithm for Monte-Carlo Simulation of Linear and Branched Polymers

We study the efficiency of the incomplete enumeration algorithm for linear and branched polymers. There is a qualitative difference in the efficiency in these two cases. The average time to generate an independent sample of configuration of polymer with n monomers varies as n ² for linear polymers for large n, but as exp(cn ^α) for branched (undirected and directed) polymers, where 0<α<1. On the binary tree, our numerical studies for n of order 10⁴ gives α = 0.333±0.005. We argue that α =1/3 exactly in this case. An erratum to this article can be found at .     

Iterated Fully Coordinated Percolation on a Square Lattice

We study, on a square lattice, an extension to fully coordinated percolation which we call iterated fully coordinated percolation. In fully coordinated percolation, sites become occupied if all four of its nearest neighbors are also occupied. Repeating this site selection process again yields the iterated fully coordinated percolation model. Our results show a large enhancement in the size of highly connected regions after each iteration (from ordinary to fully coordinated and then to iterated fully coordinated percolation); enhancements that are much larger than an extension of correlations by an extra lattice constant might suggest. We also study the universality among the three problems by determining the corresponding static and dynamic critical exponents. Specifically, a new method to directly calculate the walk dimension, d _w , using finite size scaling applied to normal mode analysis is used. This method is applicable to any geometry and requires significantly less computation than previously known calculations to determine d _w .

基于扩展Su-Shrieffer-Heeger(SSH)模型,通过自洽计算的数值方法,研究了共轭高聚物链表现为孤子态和大极化子态两种不同晶格形态时链内的杂质分布情况,计算结果显示,分立的畴壁可导致高聚物链中形成多个稳定的势阱,有利于杂质在链中聚集分布.此外,还研究了在较高浓度的掺杂条件下,共轭高聚物链内的杂质分布规律.结果显示,杂质倾向于在中心区形成高浓度分布,而在链端区,杂质更倾向于离散分布.该研究表明,高浓度掺杂下杂质分布具有稳定的特征,晶格形态对杂质分布具有显著的影响,这些结论可为实验上操控杂质在共轭高聚物中的分布提供一定的帮助.

Alternating Current Response of Two-Dimensional Vortex Lattice with Random Pinning

Using a model of long-range interactions between vortices, we investigate numerically the alternating current (ac) response of two-dimensional vortex lattice with randomly distributed point-like pinning centers. Mode-locking steps are observed in the simulated current-voltages characteristics, and the number of steps increases with the superimposed ac amplitude and frequency. Our results are in good agreement with recent experiments.     

A Note on Casoratian Solutions to Two-Dimensional Toda Lattice

In this short paper we generalize the conditions that Casoratian entries satisfy for the two-dlmenslonal Toda lattice. Although we finally conclude that our generalization is trivial in some sense for getting new solutions, our discussion is still helpful for the study of Wronskian technique.     

A Remark on High Temperature Polymer Expansion for Lattice Systems with Infinite Range Pair Interactions

We consider the standard high temperature-small activity polymer expansion for lattice spin systems and show how, in many cases using a tree graph equality, various classical results may be improved in some cases or at least proved in a much simpler way.     

Decomposition of the Fock Space in Two-Dimensional Square Lattice Systems

We discuss how to decompose the Fock space of a many-fermion system embedded in two-dimensional square lattice. Wefirst notice that the symmetry group inherent in the system is one of the two-dimensional space groups. We shortly review thecorresponding irreducible representations of the group. We then find the characters of the reducible representation of the many-fermion Fock space. Using the characters, we obtain the multiplicity of each irreducible representation contained in the Fock space of a fixed number of fermions. We present specific examples, where we calculate the multiplicities which are the dimensions of the decomposed spaces.     

A New Generalized System on the Two-Dimensional Toda Lattice and Its Reduction

In this paper, we apply the source generation procedure to the coupled 2D Toda lattice equation (also called Pfaffianized 2D Toda lattice), then we get a more generalized system which is the coupled 2D Toda lattice with self-consistent sources (p-2D TodaESCS), and a pfaffian type solution of the new system is given. Consequently, by using the reduction of the pfaffian solution to the determinant form, this new system can not only be reduced to the 2D TodaESCS, but be reduced to the coupled 2D Toda lattice equation. This result indicates that the p-2D TodaESCS is also a pfaffian version of the 2D TodaESCS, which implies the commutativity between the source generation procedure and Pfaffianization is valid to the semi-discrete soliton equation.     

Unconventional Landau Levels of Ultracold Fermionic Atoms on Two-Dimensional Honeycomb Lattice

We investigate the unconventional Landau levels of ultracold fermionic atoms on the two-dimensional honeycomb optical lattice subjected to an effective magnetic field, which is created with optical means. In the presence of the effective magnetic field, the energy spectrum of the unconventional Landau levels is calculated. Furthermore, we propose to detect the unconventional Landau levels with Bragg scattering techniques.     

The Percolation Transition for the Zero-Temperature Stochastic Ising Model on the Hexagonal Lattice

On the planar hexagonal lattice , we analyze the Markov process whose state (t), in , updates each site v asynchronously in continuous time t0, so that _v (t) agrees with a majority of its (three) neighbors. The initial _v (0)'s are i.i.d. with P[ _v (0)=+1]=p[0,1]. We study, both rigorously and by Monte Carlo simulation, the existence and nature of the percolation transition as t and p1/2. Denoting by ⁺(t,p) the expected size of the plus cluster containing the origin, we (1) prove that ⁺(,1/2)= and (2) study numerically critical exponents associated with the divergence of ⁺(,p) as p1/2. A detailed finite-size scaling analysis suggests that the exponents and of this t= (dependent) percolation model have the same values, 4/3 and 43/18, as standard two-dimensional independent percolation. We also present numerical evidence that the rate at which (t)() as t is exponential.

Emphasis is on experimental and theoretical approaches giving access to the vibrational spectra and to key properties, such as the heat capacity, vibrational entropy and enthalpy, lattice rigidity, elastic constants, and elastic interactions. Recent results in relation to surface and finite size effects as well as with ultrafast out‐of‐equilibrium phenomena are also covered.     

Critical Behaviors and Universality Classes of Percolation Phase Transitions on Two-Dimensional Square Lattice

We have investigated both site and bond percolation on two-dimensional lattice under the random rule and the product rule respectively. With the random rule, sites or bonds are added randomly into the lattice. From two candidates picked randomly, the site or bond with the smaller size product of two connected clusters is added when the product rule is taken. Not only the size of the largest cluster but also its size jump are studied to characterize the universality class of percolation. The finite-size scaling forms of giant cluster size and size jump are proposed and used to determine the critical exponents of percolation from Monte Carlo data. It is found that the critical exponents of both size and size jump in random site percolation are equal to that in random bond percolation. With the random rule, site and bond percolation belong to the same universality class. We obtain the critical exponents of the site percolation under the product rule, which are different from that of both random percolation and the bond percolation under the product rule. The universality class of site percolation differs different from that of bond percolation when the product rule is used.

Effects of Field Orientation on the Driven Lattice Gas

Steady states of the driven lattice gas (DLG) on triangular, hexagonal and square lattices with the field at several fixed orientations to the principal lattice vectors were studied by Monte Carlo simulation. In most cases a strong field suppressed change to a low-temperature ordered phase. On each lattice, one field orientation that caused nonequilibrium ordering was identified. On triangular and hexagonal lattices, dependence of energy and anisotropy on field strength was studied at those orientations. Anisotropic ordering along the field developed at intermediate temperatures under weak fields. Partial ordering along the field persisted to low temperature under strong fields.
