Liouville Quantum Gravity on the Riemann Sphere

Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2014
In this paper, we rigorously construct Liouville Quantum Field Theory on the Riemann sphere introduced in the 1981 seminal work by Polyakov. We establish some of its fundamental properties like conformal covariance under PSL2(C)\documentclass[12pt ...

Free-energy model for the inhomogeneous hard-sphere fluid mixture and density-functional theory of freezing.

Physical Review Letters, 1989
A free-energy density functional for the inhomogeneous hard-sphere fluid mixture is derived from general basic considerations and yields explicit analytic expressions for the high-order direct correlation functions of the uniform fluid.

Applications: Aggregated Spheres, Layered Spheres, and Spheres Containing Inclusions

2003
The theory developed so far is suitable to investigate the optical properties both of single particles and of dispersions of particles that are of interest in several fields of physics. With the proviso that careful tests are necessary to verify the adequacy of the model in the sense explained in Sect.

Crystallization on a sphere

Future Generation Computer Systems, 1994
Abstract We present a parallel simulated annealing algorithm for crystallization of N -body systems. The implementation uses systolic simulated annealing with additional parallel cost function evaluation. We have a hybrid topology which consists of a systolic ring and attached to each ring processor a tree of processors.

Vapor diffusion synthesis of CoFe2O4 hollow sphere/graphene composites as absorbing materials

, 2014
Novel CoFe2O4 hollow sphere/graphene composites were synthesized by a facile vapor diffusion method in combination with calcination at 550 °C. The structure and morphology of as-prepared hybrid materials were characterized by electron microscopy, X-ray ...

Equidistribution on the Sphere

SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing, 1997
A concept of generalized discrepancy, which involves pseudodifferential operators to give a criterion of equidistributed pointsets, is developed on the sphere. A simply structured formula in terms of elementary functions is established for the computation of the generalized discrepancy.
