Copycat perceptron: Smashing barriers through collective learning

Fri, 06/28/2024 - 10:00

Author(s): Giovanni Catania, Aurélien Decelle, and Beatriz Seoane

We characterize the equilibrium properties of a model of y coupled binary perceptrons in the teacher-student scenario, subject to a suitable cost function, with an explicit ferromagnetic coupling proportional to the Hamming distance between the students' weights. In contrast to recent works, we anal…

Chebyshev polynomial approach to Loschmidt echo: Application to quench dynamics in two-dimensional quasicrystals

Tue, 06/25/2024 - 10:00

Author(s): Niaz Ali Khan, Shihao Ye, Ziheng Zhou, Shujie Cheng, and Gao Xianlong

The understanding of quantum phase transitions in disordered or quasicrystal media is a central issue in condensed matter physics. In this paper we investigate localization properties of the two-dimensional Aubry-André model. We find that the system exhibits self-duality for the transformation betwe…

Simple proof that there is no sign problem in path integral Monte Carlo simulations of fermions in one dimension

Tue, 06/25/2024 - 10:00

Author(s): Siu A. Chin

It is widely known that there is no sign problem in path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulations of fermions in one dimension. As far as the author is aware, there is no direct proof of this in the literature. This work shows that the sign of the N-fermion antisymmetric free propagator is given by t…

Discrete unified gas kinetic scheme for the solution of electron Boltzmann transport equation with Callaway approximation

Mon, 06/24/2024 - 10:00

Author(s): Meng Lian, Chuang Zhang, Zhaoli Guo, and Jing-Tao Lü

Electrons are the carriers of heat and electricity in materials and exhibit abundant transport phenomena such as ballistic, diffusive, and hydrodynamic behaviors in systems with different sizes. The electron Boltzmann transport equation (eBTE) is a reliable model for describing electron transport, b…

Impact of random nanoscale roughness on gas-scattering dynamics

Thu, 06/20/2024 - 10:00

Author(s): Yichong Chen, Livio Gibelli, and Matthew K. Borg

The impact of nanoscale wall roughness on rarefied gas transport is widely acknowledged, yet the associated scattering dynamics largely remain elusive. In this paper, we develop a scattering kernel for surfaces having nanoscale roughness that distinctly characterizes the two major types of interacti…

Efficient computational model of the in-flow capturing of magnetic nanoparticles by a cylindrical magnet for cancer nanomedicine

Thu, 06/20/2024 - 10:00

Author(s): Barbara Wirthl, Vitaly Wirthl, and Wolfgang A. Wall

Magnetic nanoparticles have emerged as a promising approach to improving cancer treatment. However, many nanoparticle designs fail in clinical trials due to a lack of understanding of how to overcome the in vivo transport barriers. To address this shortcoming, we develop a computational model aimed …

Accelerating particle-in-cell kinetic plasma simulations via reduced-order modeling of space-charge dynamics using dynamic mode decomposition

Mon, 06/17/2024 - 10:00

Author(s): Indranil Nayak, Fernando L. Teixeira, Dong-Yeop Na, Mrinal Kumar, and Yuri A. Omelchenko

We present a data-driven reduced-order modeling of the space-charge dynamics for electromagnetic particle-in-cell (EMPIC) plasma simulations based on dynamic mode decomposition (DMD). The dynamics of the charged particles in kinetic plasma simulations such as EMPIC is manifested through the plasma c…

Three-dimensional lattice Boltzmann model with self-tuning equation of state for multiphase flows

Fri, 06/14/2024 - 10:00

Author(s): Rongzong Huang, Qing Li, and Yu Qiu

In this work, the recent lattice Boltzmann (LB) model with self-tuning equation of state (EOS) [Huang et al., Phys. Rev. E 99, 023303 (2019)] is extended to three dimensions for the simulation of multiphase flows, which is based on the standard three-dimensional 27-velocity lattice and multiple-rel…

Macroscopic finite-difference scheme and modified equations of the general propagation multiple-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann model

Wed, 06/12/2024 - 10:00

Author(s): Ying Chen, Xi Liu, Zhenhua Chai, and Baochang Shi

In this paper we first present the general propagation multiple-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann (GPMRT-LB) model and obtain the corresponding macroscopic finite-difference (GPMFD) scheme on conservative moments. Then based on the Maxwell iteration method, we conduct the analysis on the truncation …

Author(s): Rebecca Efrat Hadad, Argha Roy, Eran Rabani, Ronald Redmer, and Roi Baer

This study overviews and extends a recently developed stochastic finite-temperature Kohn-Sham density functional theory to study warm dense matter using Langevin dynamics, specifically under periodic boundary conditions. The method's algorithmic complexity exhibits nearly linear scaling with system …

Direct CALPHAD coupling phase-field model: Closed-form expression for interface composition satisfying equal diffusion potential condition

Mon, 06/10/2024 - 10:00

Author(s): Takumi Morino, Machiko Ode, and Shoichi Hirosawa

We formulated two phase-field models to compute interfacial compositions, characterized by their high computational accuracy and efficiency. The inaugural model utilizes convergence calculations to fulfill the equal diffusion potential condition, while the subsequent model obviates the need for such…

Author(s): Sumesh P. Thampi, Kevin Stratford, and Oliver Henrich

Anisotropic particles are often encountered in different fields of soft matter and complex fluids. In this work, we present an implementation of the coupled hydrodynamics of solid ellipsoidal particles and the surrounding fluid using the lattice Boltzmann method. A standard link-based mechanism is u…

Author(s): Amin Barzegar, Firas Hamze, Christopher Amey, and Jonathan Machta

Annealing algorithms such as simulated annealing and population annealing are widely used both for sampling the Gibbs distribution and solving optimization problems (i.e., finding ground states). For both statistical mechanics and optimization, additional parameters beyond temperature are often need…
