Delocalization transitions of semiflexible manifolds.
Semiflexible manifolds such as fluid membranes or semiflexible polymers undergo delocalization transitions if they are subject to attractive interactions. We study manifolds with short-ranged interactions by field-theoretic methods based on the operator product expansion of local interaction fields. We apply this approach to manifolds in a random potential. Randomness is always relevant for flu...
متن کاملPhase transitions of semiflexible hard-sphere chain liquids.
We present a density-functional theory for describing liquid-crystalline phase transitions in a fluid of semiflexible hard-sphere chain molecules based on the Onsager second-virial approximation for the free energy. Key ingredients of this theory are the generation of semiflexible chain conformations and calculation of the pair excluded volume and excluded area using a single-chain Monte Carlo ...
متن کاملLocalization-delocalization transitions in turbophoresis of inertial particles.
Small aerosols drift down a temperature or turbulence gradient since faster particles fly longer distances before equilibration. That fundamental phenomenon, called thermophoresis or turbophoresis, is widely encountered in nature and used in industry. It is universally believed that particles moving down the kinetic energy gradient must concentrate in minima (say, on walls in turbulence). Here,...
متن کاملChain self-assembly and phase transitions in semiflexible polymer systems
We present a phenomenological theory of the interplay between linear self-assembly, isotropic attractions, and orientation-dependent repulsions in determining the phase behavior of particles that reversibly polymerize into semiflexible chains. Important examples of such linearly aggregating systems include many proteins, micelles, and dipolar fluids. Four classes of phase diagrams are predicted...
متن کاملLocalization-Delocalization Transitions in Bosonic Random Matrix Ensembles
Localization to delocalization transitions in eigenfunctions are studied for finite interacting boson systems by employing oneplus two-body embedded Gaussian orthogonal ensemble of random matrices [EGOE(1+2)]. In the first analysis, considered are bosonic EGOE(1+2) for two-species boson systems with a fictitious (F ) spin degree of freedom [BEGOE(1+2)-F ; ’B’ for bosons]. Here, the two projecti...
