Defect patterns of two-dimensional nematic liquid crystals in confinement
Xiaomei Yao, Lei Zhang, Jeff Z. Y. Chen
A two-dimensional or quasi-two-dimensional nematic liquid crystal refers to a surface confined system. When such a system is further confined by external line boundaries or exclude…
Determining the nonequilibrium criticality of a Gardner transition via a hybrid study of molecular simulations and machine learning
Huaping Li, Yuliang Jin, Ying Jiang +1
Apparent critical phenomena, typically indicated by growing correlation lengths and dynamical slowing-down, are ubiquitous in non-equilibrium systems such as supercooled liquids, a…
Construction of a pathway map on a complicated energy landscape
Jianyuan Yin, Yiwei Wang, Jeff Z. Y. Chen +2
How do we search for the entire family tree without unwanted random guesses, starting from a high-index and high-energy stationary state on the energy landscape? Here we introduce…
A machine-learning solver for modified diffusion equations
Qianshi Wei, Ying Jiang, Jeff Z. Y. Chen
A feed-forward neural network has a remarkable property which allows the network itself to be a universal approximator for any functions.Here we present a universal, machine-learni…
Identifying polymer states by machine learning
Qianshi Wei, Roger G. Melko, Jeff Z. Y. Chen
The ability of a feed-forward neural network to learn and classify different states of polymer configurations is systematically explored. Performing numerical experiments, we find…
Folding dynamics of the helical structures in a minimal model
Josh P. Kemp, Jeff Z. Y. Chen
The folding of a polypeptide is an example of the cooperative effects of the amino-acid residues. Of recent interest is how a secondary structure, such as a helix, spontaneously fo…
Unzipping dsDNA with a force: scaling theory
Jeff Z. Y. Chen
A double stranded DNA molecule under the stress of a pulling force acting on the strand terminals exhibits a partially denatured structure or can be completely unzipped depending t…
