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

Amorphous materials as diverse as foams, emulsions, colloidal suspensions and granular
media can jam into a rigid, disordered state where they withstand finite shear stresses …

When a system jams, it undergoes a transition from a flowing to a rigid state. Despite this
important change in the dynamics, the internal structure of the system remains disordered in …

Understanding the characteristics of jammed particle packings provides basic insights into
the structure and bulk properties of crystals, glasses, and granular media and into selected …

Granular materials consist of macroscopic grains, interacting via contact forces, and
unaffected by thermal fluctuations. They are one of a class systems that undergo jamming, ie …

Deep learning has been immensely successful at a variety of tasks, ranging from
classification to artificial intelligence. Learning corresponds to fitting training data, which is …

We present an analysis of finite-size effects in jammed packings of N soft, frictionless
spheres at zero temperature. There is a 1 N correction to the discrete jump in the contact …

We present a numerical analysis of the effect of particle elongation on the quasistatic
behavior of sheared granular media by means of the contact dynamics method. The particle …

Deep learning algorithms are responsible for a technological revolution in a variety of tasks
including image recognition or Go playing. Yet, why they work is not understood. Ultimately …

This review collects and describes experiments that employ colloidal suspensions to probe
physics in ordered and disordered solids and related complex fluids. The unifying feature of …
