On Minimizers of the Landau-de Gennes Energy Functional on Planar Domains
Dmitry Golovaty, Alberto Montero
We study tensor-valued minimizers of the Landau-de Gennes energy functional on a simply-connected planar domain with non-contractible boundary data. Here the tensorial field re…

Effective models for nematic liquid crystals composites with ferromagnetic inclusions
M. Carme Calderer, Antonio DeSimone, Dmitry Golovaty +1
Molecules of a nematic liquid crystal respond to an applied magnetic field by reorienting themselves in the direction of the field. Since the dielectric anisotropy of a nematic is…
