an analytical equation of state by song and mason is developed to calculate the pvt properties ofmercury. the equation of state is based on the statistical-mechanical perturbation theory of hard convexbodies and can be written as a fifth-order polynomial in the density. there exists three temperaturedependentparameters in the equation of state; the second virial coefficient, an effective molecu...

In this paper, we study the diffusive limit of solutions to generalized Langevin equation (GLE) in a periodic potential. Under assumption quasi-Markovianity, obtain sharp longtime equilibration estimates for GLE using techniques from theory hypocoercivity. We then show asymptotic results effective diffusion coefficient small correlation time regime, as well overdamped and underdamped limits. Fi...

In this article, we consider the problem of homogenising the linear heat equation perturbed by a rapidly oscillating random potential. We consider the situation where the space-time scaling of the potential’s oscillations is not given by the diffusion scaling that leaves the heat equation invariant. Instead, we treat the case where spatial oscillations are much faster than temporal oscillations...

In this paper, the author investigates the scaling limit of a partial difference equation on the d dimensional integer lattice Zd, corresponding to a translation invariant random walk perturbed by a random vector field. In the case when the translation invariant walk scales to a Cauchy process he proves convergence to an effective equation on Rd. The effective equation corresponds to a Cauchy p...

We investigate the connection between the theory of complete scaling and a field-theoretic (FT) treatment of asymmetric fluid criticality. To facilitate the comparison, we develop an equation of state from a simplified form of the complete scaling transformations and systematically compare this equation of state with the equation of state generated by a FT treatment of an asymmetric Landau-Ginz...

The long-wavelength properties of a noisy Kuramoto-Sivashinsky (KS) equation in 1 + 1 dimensions are investigated by use of the dynamic renormalization group (RG) and direct numerical simulations. It is shown that the noisy KS equation is in the same universality class as the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation in the sense that they have scale invariant solutions with the same scaling exponents...

We consider the scaling behavior of directed percolation and of the pair contact process with a conjugated field. In particular we determine numerically the equation of state and show that both models are characterized by the same universal scaling function. Furthermore we derive the equation of state for the pair contact process within a mean-field approach which again agrees with the mean-fie...

An exact lattice Langevin equation is derived for the ballistic deposition model of surface growth. The continuum limit of this equation is dominated by the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation at all length and time scales. For a one-dimensional substrate the solution of the exact lattice Langevin equation yields the KPZ scaling exponents without any extrapolation. For a two-dimensional substrat...
