The scattering and critical properties of weakly charged ramified polymeric systems for any arbitrary topology are investigated by using the random phase approximation. The interaction matrix is modeled as the sum of the short-range excluded volume matrix and the long-range Debye–Hûckel...

We consider a bilayer membrane surrounded by small impurities, assumed to be attractive or repulsive. The purpose is a quantitative study of the effects of these impurities on the statistical properties of the supported membrane. Using the replica trick combined with a variational method, we...

The purpose of this work is the investigation of critical dynamic properties of two strongly coupled paramagnetic sublattices exhibiting a paramagnetic–ferrimagnetic transition. To go beyond the mean-field approximation, and in order to get a correct critical dynamic behavior, use is made of...

In this work, we consider bilayer biomembranes or surfactants made of two amphiphiles A and B. Under a variation of a suitable parameter, such as temperature or difference of lengths of hydrophobic chains, these systems undergo a phase separation from a homogeneous liquid-phase to two distinct...

In this paper, we are interested in the critical behavior of the dynamic structure factor of a crosslinked polymer blend made of two chemically incompatible polymer A and B, when it is suddenly cooled down from a high initial temperature towards a final one very close to the spinodal point....
