Softness, anomalous dynamics, and fractal-like energy landscape in model cell tissues
Yan-Wei Li, Leon Loh Yeong Wei, Matteo Paoluzzi +1
Epithelial cell tissues have a slow relaxation dynamics resembling that of supercooled liquids. Yet, they also have distinguishing features. These include an extended short-time su…
Attraction tames two-dimensional melting: from continuous to discontinuous transitions
Yan-Wei Li, Massimo Pica Ciamarra
Two-dimensional systems may admit a hexatic phase and hexatic-liquid transitions of different natures. The determination of their phase diagrams proved challenging, and indeed thos…
Dynamics in two-dimensional glassy systems of crowded Penrose kites
Yan-Wei Li, Zi-Qi Li, Zhang-Lin Hou +4
We investigate the translational and rotational relaxation dynamics of a crowded two-dimensional system of monodisperse Penrose kites, in which crystallization, quasi-crystallizati…
Accurate determination of the translational correlation function of two-dimensional solids
Yan-Wei Li, Massimo Pica Ciamarra
The identification of the different phases of a two-dimensional (2d) system, which might be in solid, hexatic, or liquid, requires the accurate determination of the correlation fun…
Long-wavelength fluctuations and anomalous dynamics in two-dimensional liquids
Yanwei Li, Chandan K. Mishra, Zhaoyan Sun +4
Long-wavelength Mermin-Wagner fluctuations prevent the existence of translational long-range order, in two-dimensional systems at finite temperature. Their dynamical signature, whi…
Hyperuniformity and generalized fluctuations at Jamming
Yuanjian Zheng, Yan-Wei Li, Massimo Pica Ciamarra
The suppression of density fluctuations at different length scales is the hallmark of hyperuniformity. However, its existence and significance in jammed solids is still a matter of…
