Variational autoencoders understand knot topology
Anna Braghetto, Sumanta Kundu, Marco Baiesi +1
Supervised machine learning (ML) methods are emerging as valid alternatives to standard mathematical methods for identifying knots in long, collapsed polymers. Here, we introduce a…
Fluctuations of driven probes reveal nonequilibrium transitions in complex fluids
Danilo Forastiere, Emanuele Locatelli, Gianmaria Falasco +2
Complex fluids subjected to localized microscopic energy inputs, typical of active microrheology setups, exhibit poorly understood nonequilibrium behaviors because of the intricate…
Upsurge of spontaneous knotting in polar diblock active polymers
Marin Vatin, Enzo Orlandini, Emanuele Locatelli
Spontaneous formation of knots in long polymers at equilibrium is inevitable but becomes rare in sufficiently short chains. Here, we show that knotting and knot complexity increase…
Nonequilibrium Kinetics of One-Dimensional Bose Gases
F. Baldovin, A. Cappellaro, E. Orlandini +1
We study cold dilute gases made of bosonic atoms, showing that in the mean-field one-dimensional regime they support stable out-of-equilibrium states. Starting from the 3D Boltzman…
Universal properties of knotted polymer rings
Marco Baiesi, Enzo Orlandini
By performing Monte Carlo sampling of -steps self-avoiding polygons embedded on different Bravais lattices we explore the robustness of universality in the entropic, metric and…
The entropic cost to tie a knot
Marco Baiesi, Enzo Orlandini, Attilio L. Stella
We estimate by Monte Carlo simulations the configurational entropy of -steps polygons in the cubic lattice with fixed knot type. By collecting a rich statistics of configuration…
