Topological Signature of First Order Phase Transitions
L. Angelani, L. Casetti, M. Pettini +2
We show that the presence and the location of first order phase transitions in a thermodynamic system can be deduced by the study of the topology of the potential energy function,…

Model for the hydration of non-polar compounds and polymers
Pierpaolo Bruscolini, Lapo Casetti
We introduce an exactly solvable statistical-mechanical model of the hydration of non-polar compounds, based on grouping water molecules in clusters where hydrogen bonds and isotro…

Topological aspects of geometrical signatures of phase transitions
Roberto Franzosi, Lapo Casetti, Lionel Spinelli +1
Certain geometric properties of submanifolds of configuration space are numerically investigated for classical lattice phi^4 models in one and two dimensions. Peculiar behaviors of…
