Deformation and fracture of echinoderm collagen networks

Markus Ovaska, Zsolt Bertalan, Amandine Miksic +8

Collagen networks provide the main structural component of most tissues and represent an important ingredient for bio-mimetic materials for bio-medical applications. Here we study…

Role of the Number of Microtubules in Chromosome Segregation during Cell Division

Zsolt Bertalan, Zoe Budrikis, Caterina A. M. La Porta +1

Faithful segregation of genetic material during cell division requires alignment of chromosomes between two spindle poles and attachment of their kinetochores to each of the poles.…

Navigation strategies of motor proteins on decorated tracks

Zsolt Bertalan, Zoe Budrikis, Caterina A. M. La Porta +1

Motor proteins display widely different stepping patterns as they move on microtubule tracks, from the deterministic linear or helical motion performed by the protein kinesin to th…

Conformational mechanism for the stability of microtubule-kinetochore attachments

Zsolt Bertalan, Caterina A. M. La Porta, Helder Maiato +1

Regulating the stability of microtubule(MT)-kinetochore attachments is fundamental to avoiding mitotic errors and ensure proper chromosome segregation during cell division. While b…

Fracture strength: Stress concentration, extreme value statistics and the fate of the Weibull distribution

Zsolt Bertalan, Ashivni Shekhawat, James P. Sethna +1

The fracture strength distribution of materials is often described in terms of the Weibull law which can be derived by using extreme value statistics if elastic interactions are ig…

Avoidance and Coalescence of Delamination Patterns

Zoe Budrikis, Alessandro L. Sellerio, Zsolt Bertalan +1

Delamination of coatings and thin films from substrates generates a fascinating variety of patterns, from circular blisters to wrinkles and labyrinth domains, in a way that is not…

Ensemble Inequivalence and the Spin-Glass Transition

Zsolt Bertalan, Kazutaka Takahashi

We report on the ensemble inequivalence in a many-body spin-glass model with integer spin. The spin-glass phase transition is of first order for certain values of the crystal field…

Stability in microcanonical many-body spin glasses

Zsolt Bertalan, Kazutaka Takahashi

We generalize the de Almeida-Thouless line for the many-body Ising spin glass to the microcanonical ensemble and show that it coincides with the canonical one. This enables us to d…

Many-body spin glasses in the microcanonical ensemble

Zsolt Bertalan, Hidethoshi Nishimori

We investigate the p-spin model with Gaussian-distributed random interactions in the microcanonical ensemble using the replica theory. For p=2, there are only second-order phase tr…

Ensemble Inequivalence in the Ferromagnetic p-spin Model in Random Fields

Zsolt Bertalan, Takehiro Kuma, Yoshiki Matsuda +1

We study the effect that randomness has on long-range interacting systems by using the ferromagnetic Ising model with -body interactions in random fields. The case with p=2 yiel…

Accelerated Stochastic Sampling of Discrete Statistical Systems

Zsolt Bertalan, Hidetoshi Nishimori, Henri Orland

We propose a method to reduce the relaxation time towards equilibrium in stochastic sampling of complex energy landscapes in statistical systems with discrete degrees of freedom by…
