Saddles and softness in simple model liquids
L. Angelani, C. De Michele, G. Ruocco +1
We report a numerical study of saddles properties of the potential energy landscape for soft spheres with different softness, i.e. different power n of the interparticle repulsive…
Topology and phase transitions: from an exactly solvable model to a relation between topology and thermodynamics
Luca Angelani, Lapo Casetti, Marco Pettini +2
The elsewhere surmised topological origin of phase transitions is given here new important evidence through the analytic study of an exactly solvable model for which both topology…
Topological properties of the mean field phi^4 model
A. Andronico, L. Angelani, G. Ruocco +1
We study the thermodynamics and the properties of the stationary points (saddles and minima) of the potential energy for a phi^4 mean field model. We compare the critical energy Vc…
Diffusivity and configurational entropy maxima in short range attractive colloids
Luca Angelani, Giuseppe Foffi, Francesco Sciortino +1
We study tagged particle diffusion at large packing fractions, for a model of particles interacting with a generalized Lennard-Jones 2n-n potential, with large n. The resulting sho…
