Two-Dimensional Phase Transitions in Classical Systems: 60 Years after the Hohenberg-Mermin-Wagner Theorem

Ruijian Zhu, Yanting Wang

In 1966, Hohenberg, Mermin and Wagner proved that long-wavelength fluctuations destabilize the long-range order of continuous symmetry in two-dimensional (2D) systems. Later in the…

Universal scaling laws for dynamical-thermal hysteresis

Yachao Sun, Xuesong Li, Yanting Wang +3

Dynamic hysteresis, the rate-dependent lagged response of materials to external fields, underpins applications from energy-efficient transformers to gas storage systems. A fundamen…

Phase transitions in voting simulated by an intelligent Ising model

Guanyu Xu, Jiahang Chen, Xin Zhou +1

Voting is an important social activity for expressing public opinions. By conceptually considering a group of voting agents to be intelligent matter, the impact of real-time inform…

Shape-Determined Kinetic Pathways in 2D Solid-Solid Phase Transitions

Ruijian Zhu, Yi Peng, Yanting Wang

Solid-solid phase transitions are ubiquitous in nature, but the kinetic pathway of anisotropic particle systems remains elusive, where the coupling between translational and rotati…

Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Microscopic Structural Transition and Macroscopic Mechanical Properties of Magnetic Gels

Xuefeng Wei, Gaspard Junot, Ramin Golestanian +4

Magnetic gels with embedded micro/nano-sized magnetic particles in crosslinked polymer networks can be actuated by external magnetic fields, with changes in their internal microsco…

Asymmetric Nucleation Processes in Spontaneous Mode Switch of Active Matter

Bing Yang, Yanting Wang

Flocking and vortical are two typical motion modes in active matter. Although it is known that the two modes can spontaneously switch between each other in a finite-size system, th…
