In this work we propose an action to describe diffusion limited chemical reactions belonging to various classes of universality. This action is treated through Thompson's approach and can encompass both cases where we have segregation as in the A + B →0 reaction, as well as the simplest one, namely the A + A →0 reaction. Our results for long-time and long-wavelength behaviors of the species concentrations and reaction rates agree with exact results of Peliti for A + A →0 reaction and rigorous results of Bramson and Lebowitz for A + B →0 reaction, with equal initial concentrations. The different classes of universality are reflected by the obtained upper critical dimensions varying continuously from d c =2 in the first case to d c =4 in the last one. Just as at the upper critical dimensions, we find universal logarithmic corrections to the mean field behavior.

In this article, we consider a model that allows one to describe critical phenomena in systems with higher powers and derivatives of order parameter. The systems considered have critical points with joint multicritical and Lifshitz-point-like properties. We assess the lower and upper critical dimensions of these systems. These calculation enable us to find the fluctuation region where the mean field theory description does not work.

Starting from some recent rigorous results about correlation functions of statistical model on tree structures, we analyze the nature of phase transitions occurring on Bethe lattices, showing the lack of long range order and the purely geometrical origin of the thermodynamic singularities. This approach gives a very simple formula for the critical temperature for any model with compact symmetry group and immediately leads to the value 1 for the critical exponent γ. The “geometrical” critical behavior only partially coincides with the mean field solution and violates the usual scaling relations.

Abstract In this paper, the dispersion of a solute in the peristaltic propulsion of an incompressible and viscous fluid through a permeable medium under the influence of wall properties with simultaneous homogeneous, heterogeneous chemical reactions in an inclined uniform channel has been studied. The issue is studied through conditions of Taylor’s limit and long wavelength hypothesis. The mean effective coefficient of scattering expression is computed and outcomes are interpreted physically through graphs.

We investigate the long-time dynamics of an opinion formation model inspired by a work by Borghesi, Bouchaud and Jensen. First, we derive a Fokker–Planck-type equation under the assumption that interactions between individuals produce little consensus of opinion (grazing collision approximation). Second, we study conditions under which the Fokker–Planck equation has non-trivial equilibria and derive the macroscopic limit (corresponding to the long-time dynamics and spatially localized interactions) for the evolution of the mean opinion. Finally, we compare two different types of interaction rates: the original one given in the work of Borghesi, Bouchaud and Jensen (symmetric binary interactions) and one inspired from works by Motsch and Tadmor (non-symmetric binary interactions). We show that the first case leads to a conservative model for the density of the mean opinion whereas the second case leads to a non-conservative equation. We also show that the speed at which consensus is reached asymptotically for these two rates has fairly different density dependence.

We investigate a model for collective behavior with intrinsic interactions on Riemannian manifolds. We establish the well-posedness of measure-valued solutions (defined via mass transport) on sphere, as well as investigate the mean-field particle approximation. We study the long-time behavior of solutions to the model on sphere, where the primary goal is to establish sufficient conditions for a consensus state to form asymptotically. Well-posedness of solutions and the formation of consensus are also investigated for other manifolds (e.g., a hypercylinder).

In this paper, we use Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) to write electronic states of a ferromagnetic system into high-temperature paramagnetic nuclear spins. Through the control of phase and duration of radio frequency pulses, we set the NMR density matrix populations, and apply the technique of quantum state tomography to experimentally obtain the matrix elements of the system, from which we calculate the temperature dependence of magnetization for different magnetic fields. The effects of the variation of temperature and magnetic field over the populations can be mapped in the angles of spin rotations, carried out by the RF pulses. The experimental results are compared to the Brillouin functions of ferromagnetic ordered systems in the mean field approximation for two cases: the mean field is given by (i) B = B0 + λM and (ii) B = B0 + λM + λ′M3, where B0 is the external magnetic field, and λ, λ′ are mean field parameters. The first case exhibits second order transition, whereas the second case has first order transition with temperature hysteresis. The NMR simulations are in good agreement with the magnetic predictions.
