Expressions for zeroth, second and fourth sum rules of longitudinal and bulk stress auto correlation functions have been derived for binary fluid mixtures. Longitudinal and bulk viscosities of an Ar–Kr mixture have been calculated using Mori's memory function formalism coupled with the sum...

The speed of pulled fronts for parabolic fractional-reaction-dispersal equations is derived and analyzed. From the continuous-time random walk theory we derive these equations by considering long-tailed distributions for waiting times and dispersal distances. For both cases we obtain the...

In an earlier contribution to this journal [M.M.R. Williams, Eur. Phys. J. B <Emphasis Type="Bold">47, 291 (2005)], we derived an integral equation for the transmission of radiation through a slab of finite thickness which incorporated internal reflection at the surfaces. Here we generalise the problem to the case...</emphasis>

We study the transport properties of model networks such as scale-free and Erdös-Rényi networks as well as a real network. We consider few possibilities for the trnasport problem. We start by studying the conductance G between two arbitrarily chosen nodes where each link has the same unit...

A numerical method is proposed in order to track field lines of three-dimensional divergence free fields. Field lines are computed by a locally valid Hamiltonian mapping, which is computed using a symplectic scheme. The method is theoretically valid everywhere but at points where the field is...

This paper compares three different types of “onset of chaos” in the logistic and generalized logistic map: the Feigenbaum attractor at the end of the period doubling bifurcations; the tangent bifurcation at the border of the period three window; the transition to chaos in the generalized...

Quantum characteristics of the Topological Non-connectivity Threshold (TNT), introduced in [F. Borgonovi, G.L. Celardo, M. Maianti, E. Pedersoli, J. Stat. Phys. <Emphasis Type="Bold">116, 516 (2004)], have been analyzed in the hard quantum regime. New interesting perspectives in term of the possibility to study the...</emphasis>
