Magnetic Nanoparticles in a Nematic Channel: A One-Dimensional Study
Konark Bisht, Varsha Banerjee, Paul Milewski +1
We study a ferromagnetic suspension or a suspension of magnetic nanoparticles in an anisotropic nematic medium, in three different one-dimensional variational settings, ordered in…
Minimizers of a Landau-de Gennes Energy with a Subquadratic Elastic Energy
Giacomo Canevari, Apala Majumdar, Bianca Stroffolini
We study a modified Landau-de Gennes model for nematic liquid crystals, where the elastic term is assumed to be of subquadratic growth in the gradient. We analyze the behaviour of…
Theoretical Remarks on Cybotactic Clusters of Bent-Core Nematic Liquid Crystals in 1D Settings
Sourav Patranabish, Yiwei Wang, Aloka Sinha +1
The bent-core liquid crystals (LCs) are highly regarded as the next-generation materials for electro-optic devices. The nematic (N) phase of these LCs possesses highly ordered smec…
Order Reconstruction for Nematics on Squares with Isotropic Inclusions: A Landau-de Gennes Study
Yiwei Wang, Giacomo Canevari, Apala Majumdar
We prove the existence of a well order reconstruction solution (WORS) type Landau-de Gennes critical point on a square domain with an isotropic concentric square inclusion, with ta…
