Hyperuniform states of matter are correlated systems that are characterized by an
anomalous suppression of long-wavelength (ie, large-length-scale) density fluctuations …

Classical dynamical density functional theory (DDFT) is one of the cornerstones of modern
statistical mechanics. It is an extension of the highly successful method of classical density …

In this work, we present a review of recently achieved progress in the field of soft condensed
matter physics, and in particular on the study of the static properties of solutions or …

For preventing the spread of epidemics such as the coronavirus disease COVID-19, social
distancing and the isolation of infected persons are crucial. However, existing reaction …

We map dilute or semidilute solutions of nonintersecting polymer chains onto a fluid of “soft”
particles interacting via a concentration dependent effective pair potential, by inverting the …

A variety of experimental and theoretical approaches show that, akin to linear polymers,
dendrimers in good solvent conditions are best described as flexible macromolecular …

Density (or state) dependent pair potentials arise naturally from coarse-graining procedures
in many areas of condensed matter science. However, correctly using them to calculate …

Dilute or semidilute solutions of nonintersecting self-avoiding walk (SAW) polymer chains
are mapped onto a fluid of “soft” particles interacting via an effective pair potential between …

We examine in full generality the phase behavior of systems whose constituent particles
interact by means of potentials that do not diverge at the origin, are free of attractive parts …

We propose a heuristic explanation for the numerous non-close-packed crystal structures
observed in various colloidal systems. By develo** an analogy between soap froths and …
