Frozen states and order-disorder transition in the dynamics of confined membranes
Thomas Le Goff, Paolo Politi, Olivier Pierre-Louis
The adhesion dynamics of a membrane confined between two permeable walls is studied using a two-dimensional hydrodynamic model. The membrane morphology decomposes into adhesion pat…
Re-entrant spin-flop transition in nanomagnets
Mattia Crescioli, Paolo Politi, Ruggero Vaia
Antiferromagnetic chains with an odd number of spins are known to undergo a transition from an antiparallel to a spin-flop configuration when subjected to an increasing magnetic fi…
Internal and external dynamics in language: Evidence from verb regularity in a historical corpus of English
Christine F. Cuskley, Martina Pugliese, Claudio Castellano +3
Human languages are rule governed, but almost invariably these rules have exceptions in the form of irregularities. Since rules in language are efficient and productive, the persis…
The Italian primary school-size distribution and the city-size: a complex nexus
Alessandro Belmonte, Riccardo Di Clemente, Sergey V. Buldyrev
We characterize the statistical law according to which Italian primary school-size distributes. We find that the school-size can be approximated by a log-normal distribution, with…
