AbstractWe construct (modified) scattering operators for the Vlasov–Poisson system in three dimensions, mapping small asymptotic dynamics as $$t\rightarrow -\infty$$ t → - ∞ to asymptotic dynamics as $$t\rightarrow +\infty$$ t → + ∞ . The main novelty is the construction of modified wave operators, but we also obtain a new simple proof of modified scattering. Our analysis is guided by the Hamiltonian structure of the Vlasov–Poisson system. Via a pseudo-conformal inversion, we recast the question of asymptotic behavior in terms of local in time dynamics of a new equation with singular coefficients which is approximately integrated using a generating function.

Abstract. We consider solitary waves propagating on the interface between two fluids, each of constant density, for the case when the upper fluid is bounded above by a rigid horizontal plane, but the lower fluid has a variable depth. It is well-known that in this situation, the solitary waves can be described by a variable-coefficient Korteweg-de Vries equation. Here we reconsider the derivation of this equation and present a formulation which preserves the Hamiltonian structure of the underlying system. The result is a new variable-coefficient Korteweg-de Vries equation, which conserves energy to a higher order than the more conventional well-known equation. The new equation is used to describe the transformation of an interfacial solitary wave which propagates into a region of decreasing depth.

The replica theory of glasses predicts that in the infinite dimensional mean field limit, there exist two distinct glassy phases of matter: stable glass and marginal glass. We have developed a technique to experimentally probe these phases of matter using a colloidal glass. We avoid the difficulties inherent in measuring the long time behavior of glasses by instead focusing on the very short time dynamics of the ballistic to caged transition. We track a single tracer particle within a slowly densifying glass and measure the resulting mean squared displacement (MSD). By analyzing the MSD, we find that upon densification, our colloidal system moves through several states of matter. At lowest densities, it is a subdiffusive liquid. Next, it behaves as a stable glass, marked by the appearance of a plateau in the MSD whose magnitude shrinks with increasing density. However, this shrinking plateau does not shrink to zero; instead, at higher densities, the system behaves as a marginal glass, marked by logarithmic growth in the MSD toward that previous plateau value. Finally, at the highest experimental densities, the system returns to the stable glass phase. This provides direct experimental evidence for the existence of a marginal glass in three dimensions.

The kinetics of domain growth of fluid mixtures quenched from a disordered to a lamellar phase has been studied in three dimensions. We use a numerical approach based on the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). A novel implementation for LBM which "fuses" the collision and streaming steps is used in order to reduce memory and bandwidth requirements. We find that extended defects between stacks of lamellae with different orientation dominate the late time dynamics.
