• Classical and quantum analysis of a heterotriatomic molecular Bose-Einstein-condensate model 

      Tonel, Arlei Prestes; Kuhn, Carlos Claiton Noschang; Santos Filho, Gilberto Nascimento; Foerster, Angela; Roditi, Itzhak; Santos, Zeila Virginia Torres (2009) [Artigo de periódico]
      We investigate an integrable Hamiltonian modeling a heterotriatomic molecular Bose-Einstein condensate. This model describes a mixture of two species of atoms in different proportions, which can combine to form a triatomic ...
    • Collisionless relaxation in gravitacional systems from violent relaxation to gravothermal collapse 

      Levin, Yan; Pakter, Renato; Rizzato, Felipe Barbedo (2008) [Artigo de periódico]
      Theory and simulations are used to study collisionless relaxation of a gravitational N-body system. It is shown that when the initial one-particle distribution function satisfies the virial condition—potential energy is ...
    • A connection between the ice-type model of Linus Pauling and the three-color problem 

      Silva, Roberto da; Nakao, Osvaldo Shigueru; Felício, José Roberto Drugovich de (2021) [Artigo de periódico]
      The ice-type model proposed by Linus Pauling to explain its entropy at low temperatures is here approached in a didactic way. We first present a theoretically estimated low-temperature entropy and compare it with numerical ...
    • Cooperation and age structure in spatial games 

      Wang, Zhen; Wang, Zhen; Zhu, Xiaodan; Arenzon, Jeferson Jacob (2012) [Artigo de periódico]
      We study the evolution of cooperation in evolutionary spatial games when the payoff correlates with the increasing age of players (the level of correlation is set through a single parameter, α). The demographic heterogeneous ...
    • Curvature-driven coarsening in the two-dimensional Potts model 

      Loureiro, Marcos Paulo de Oliveira; Arenzon, Jeferson Jacob; Cugliandolo, Leticia F.; Sicilia, Alberto (2010) [Artigo de periódico]
      We study the geometric properties of polymixtures after a sudden quench in temperature. We mimic these systems with the q-states Potts model on a square lattice with and without weak quenched disorder, and their evolution ...
    • Driven one-component plasmas 

      Rizzato, Felipe Barbedo; Pakter, Renato; Levin, Yan (2009) [Artigo de periódico]
      A statistical theory is presented that allows the calculation of the stationary state achieved by a driven one-component plasma after a process of collisionless relaxation. The stationary Vlasov equation with appropriate ...
    • Geometry of phase separation 

      Sicilia, Alberto; Sarrazin, Yoann; Arenzon, Jeferson Jacob; Bray, Alan J.; Cugliandolo, Leticia F. (2009) [Artigo de periódico]
      We study the domain geometry during spinodal decomposition of a 50:50 binary mixture in two dimensions. Extending arguments developed to treat nonconserved coarsening, we obtain approximate analytic results for the ...
    • Ising model with isotropic competing interactions in the presence of a field : a tricritical-lifshitz-point realization 

      Barbosa, Marcia Cristina Bernardes (1993) [Artigo de periódico]
      We consider a spin system with competing interactions that are isotropic with respect to the axes of a cubic lattice. On the basis of an e expansion, we demonstrate that for small values of the external field H, the ...
    • Maximal diversity and Zipf’s law 

      Mazzarisi, Onofrio; Lopes, Amanda de Azevedo; Arenzon, Jeferson Jacob; Corberi, Federico (2021) [Artigo de periódico]
      Zipf’s law describes the empirical size distribution of the components of many systems in natural and social sciences and humanities. We show, by solving a statistical model, that Zipf’s law co-occurs with the maximization ...
    • Non-Gaussian distributions to random walk in the context of memory kernels 

      Santos, Maike Antonio Faustino dos (2018) [Artigo de periódico]
      The investigation of diffusive process in nature presents a complexity associated with memory effects. Thereby, it is necessary new mathematical models to involve memory concept in diffusion. In the following, I approach ...
    • Non-Shilnikov cascades of spikes and hubs in a semiconductor laser with optoelectronic feedback 

      Freire, Joana G.; Gallas, Jason Alfredo Carlson (2010) [Artigo de periódico]
      Incomplete homoclinic scenarios were recently measured in a semiconductor laser with optoelectronic feedback. We show here that such a laser contains cascades of spirals of periodic oscillations and hubs which look identical ...
    • Optimally adapted multistate neural networks trained with noise 

      Erichsen Junior, Rubem; Theumann, Walter Karl (1999) [Artigo de periódico]
      The principle of adaptation in a noisy retrieval environment is extended here to a diluted attractor neural network of Q-state neurons trained with noisy data. The network is adapted to an appropriate noisy training overlap ...
    • Phase diagrams of three-component attractive ultracold fermions in one dimension 

      Kuhn, Carlos Claiton Noschang; Foerster, Angela (2012) [Artigo de periódico]
      We investigate trions, paired states and quantum phase transitions in one-dimensional SU(3) attractive fermions in external fields by means of the Bethe ansatz formalism. Analytical results for the ground state energy, ...
    • Phase transitions in the three-state Ising spin-glass model with finite connectivity 

      Erichsen Junior, Rubem; Theumann, Walter Karl (2011) [Artigo de periódico]
      The statistical mechanics of a two-state Ising spin-glass model with finite random connectivity, in which each site is connected to a finite number of other sites, is extended in this work within the replica technique to ...
    • Skepticism and rumor spreading : the role of spatial correlations 

      Amaral, Marco Antonio; Dantas, Wellington Gomes; Arenzon, Jeferson Jacob (2020) [Artigo de periódico]
      Critical thinking and skepticism are fundamental mechanisms that one may use to prevent the spreading of rumors, fake news, and misinformation. We consider a simple model in which agents without previous contact with the ...
    • Statistical properties of speckle patterns for a random number of scatterers and nonuniform phase distributions 

      Metz, Fernando Lucas; Bonatto, Cristian; Prado, Sandra Denise (2024) [Artigo de periódico]
      The statistical properties of speckle patterns have important applications in optics, oceanography, and transport phenomena in disordered systems. Here we obtain closed-form analytic results for the amplitude distribution ...
