We construct the resulting three-dimensional phase diagram for the DTC order, which manifests a striking resemblance to the jamming phase diagram proposed by Liu and Nagel. This finding may suggest a new way to view the DTC order as a new type of nonequilibrium soft matter. The quench dynamics exhibits a unique feature due to the nature of the employed drive protocol, namely, breakdown of the inverse relationship between the domain growth and defect relaxation, which holds in the usual quench dynamics of the kinetic Ising model.","PeriodicalId":17207,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140664358","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is inspired by the Brownian gyrator described by Filliger and Reimann (2007 Phys. Rev. Lett.99 230602). The Brownian translator consists of a spatially asymmetric object moving freely along a line due to perpetual collisions with a surrounding ideal gas. When this gas has an anisotropic temperature, both spatial and temporal symmetries are broken and the object acquires a nonzero drift. Onsager reciprocity implies the opposite phenomenon, that is dragging a spatially asymmetric object into an (initially at) equilibrium gas induces an energy flow that results in anisotropic gas temperatures. Expressions for the dynamical and energetic properties are derived as a series expansion in the mass ratio (of gas particle vs. object). These results are in excellent agreement with molecular dynamics simulations.","PeriodicalId":17207,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140801586","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite recent advancements in methods for community detection in these systems, we still lack a theoretical analysis of their detectability limits. Here, we derive closed-form bounds for community detection in hypergraphs. Using a message-passing formulation, we demonstrate that detectability depends on the hypergraphs’ structural properties, such as the distribution of hyperedge sizes or their assortativity. Our formulation enables a characterization of the entropy of a hypergraph in relation to that of its clique expansion, showing that community detection is enhanced when hyperedges highly overlap on pairs of nodes. We develop an efficient message-passing algorithm to learn communities and model parameters on large systems. Additionally, we devise an exact sampling routine to generate synthetic data from our probabilistic model. Using these methods, we numerically investigate the boundaries of community detection in synthetic datasets, and extract communities from real systems. Our results extend our understanding of the limits of community detection in hypergraphs and introduce flexible mathematical tools to study systems with higher-order interactions.","PeriodicalId":17207,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140801303","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The movement of pedestrians in the new model depends on the positions and velocities of other pedestrians ahead. A pedestrian walks in the desired direction at a free speed until an obstacle appears in the desired direction. When there is an obstacle in the desired direction, pedestrians tend to choose the direction with the smallest deflection angle. When the decision of a pedestrian conflicts with the movement of the nearest neighbor in front, the pedestrian stops moving. Comparing CADM with other models, the evacuation time of CADM during the simulation is very close to the time in the experiment. CADM also successfully reproduced the stripe phenomenon in boundary-constrained intersecting pedestrian streams, which was difficult to accomplish with the compared model. CADM also inherits several advantages of the original model, in that it can reproduce the corresponding self-organization phenomena in straight corridors and bottlenecks.","PeriodicalId":17207,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140611625","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Observations from the experiments reveal several characteristic behaviors among children, including preferences for destinations, the impact of obstacles on their movement, as well as patterns of exit utilization, running and pushing during the evacuation process. Drawing upon these empirical findings, a CA model is developed to encapsulate these observed behaviors. A novel algorithm is introduced within this model to simulate the pushing behavior of children during emergency evacuations. Numerical simulations are conducted to validate the capability of the model to replicate the observed behaviors. The simulation results confirm that the model accurately reproduces the child behavior during evacuations. Furthermore, the results indicate that the total evacuation time is directly influenced by both the proportion of children exhibiting pushing behavior and the strength of the pushing force. These insights advance our understanding of child behavior in emergency situations and have significant implications for enhancing public safety.","PeriodicalId":17207,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140611624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using classical density functional theory, the EIP is calculated and decoupled into entropic and energy terms. Unlike the traditional Asakura–Oosawa (AO) depletion model, the present entropic term can be positive or negative, depending on the entropy change associated with solvent molecule migration from bulk into slit pore. This is determined by pore congestion and disruption of the bulk dipole network. The energy term is determined by the free energy associated with hard-core repulsion and electrostatic interactions between surface charges, ion charges, and polarized charges carried by the dipole dimer molecules. The calculations in this article clearly demonstrate the variability of the entropy term, which contrasts sharply with the traditional AO depletion model, and the corrective effects of electrostatic and spatial hindrance interactions on the total EIP; we revealed several non-monotonic behaviors of the EIP and its entropic and energy terms concerning solvent bulk concentration and solvent molecule dipole moment; additionally, we demonstrated the promoting effect of dipolar solvent on the emergence of like-charge attraction, even in 1:1 electrolyte solutions. The microscopic origin of the aforementioned phenomena was analyzed to be due to the non-monotonic change of dipolar solvent adsorption with dipole moment under conditions of low solution dielectric constant. The present findings offer novel approaches and molecular-level guidance for regulating the EIP. This insight has implications for understanding fundamental processes in various fields, including biomolecule-ligand binding, activation energy barriers, ion tunneling transport, as well as the formation of hierarchical structures, such as mesophases, micro-, and nanostructures, and beyond.","PeriodicalId":17207,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140611542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
