Computing equilibrium states of cholesteric liquid crystals in elliptical channels with deflation algorithms

David B. Emerson, Patrick E. Farrell, James H. Adler +2

We study the problem of a cholesteric liquid crystal confined to an elliptical channel. The system is geometrically frustrated because the cholesteric prefers to adopt a uniform ra…
