Disordered hyperuniform many-body systems are exotic states of matter with novel optical, transport, and mechanical properties. These systems are characterized by an anomalous suppression of large-scale density fluctuations compared to ordinary liquids. The structure factor of disordered hyperuniform systems often obeys the scaling relation S(k)∼Bkα with B,α>0 in the limit k→0. Ground states of d-dimensional free fermionic gases, which are fundamental models for many metals and semiconductors, are key examples of quantum disordered hyperuniform states with important connections to random matrix theory. However, the effects of electron-electron interactions as well as the polarization of the electron liquid on hyperuniformity have not been explored thus far. In this paper, we systematically address these questions by deriving the analytical small-k behaviors (and, associated, α and B) of the total and spin-resolved structure factors of quasi-one-dimensional, two-dimensional, and three-dimensional electron liquids for varying polarizations and interaction parameters. We validate that these equilibrium disordered ground states are hyperuniform, as dictated by the fluctuation-compressibility relation. Interestingly, free fermions, partially polarized interacting fermions, and fully polarized interacting fermions are characterized by different values of the small-k scaling exponent α and coefficient B. In particular, partially polarized fermionic liquids exhibit a unique form of multihyperuniformity, in which the net configuration exhibits a stronger form of hyperuniformity (i.e., larger α) than each individual spin component. The detailed theoretical analysis of such small-k behaviors enables the construction of corresponding equilibrium classical systems under effective one- and two-body interactions that mimic the pair statistics of quantum electron liquids. Our paper thus reveals that highly unusual hyperuniform and multihyperuniform states can be achieved in simple

Formulating order metrics that sensitively quantify the degree of order/disorder in many-particle systems in d-dimensional Euclidean space Rd across length scales is an outstanding challenge in physics, chemistry, and materials science. Since an infinite set of n-particle correlation functions is required to fully characterize a system, one must settle for a reduced set of structural information, in practice. We initiate a program to use the local number variance σN2(R) associated with a spherical sampling window of radius R (which encodes pair correlations) and an integral measure derived from it ΣN(Ri,Rj) that depends on two specified radial distances Ri and Rj. Across the first three space dimensions (d=1,2,3), we find these metrics can sensitively describe and categorize the degree of order/disorder of 41 different models of antihyperuniform, nonhyperuniform, disordered hyperuniform, and ordered hyperuniform many-particle systems at a specified length scale R. Using our local variance metrics, we demonstrate the importance of assessing order/disorder with respect to a specific value of R. These local order metrics could also aid in the inverse design of structures with prescribed length-scale-specific degrees of order/disorder that yield desired physical properties. In future work, it would be fruitful to explore the use of higher-order moments of the number of points within a spherical window of radius R [S. Torquato et al., Phys. Rev. X 11, 021028 (2021)] to devise even more sensitive order metrics.

In previous work [Phys. Rev. X 5, 021020 (2015)] it was shown that stealthy hyperuniform systems can be regarded as hard spheres in Fourier space in the sense that the structure factor is exactly zero in a spherical region around the origin in analogy with the pair-correlation function of real-space hard spheres. While this earlier work focused on spatial dimensions d=1–4, here we extend the analysis to higher dimensions in order to make connections to high-dimensional sphere packings and the mean-field theory of glasses. We exploit this correspondence to confirm that the densest Fourier-space hard-sphere system is that of a Bravais lattice in contrast to real-space hard spheres, whose densest configuration is conjectured to be disordered. In passing, we give a concise form for the position of the first Bragg peak. We also extend the virial series previously suggested for disordered stealthy hyperuniform systems to higher dimensions in order to predict spatial decorrelation as a function of dimension. This prediction is then borne out by numerical simulations of disordered stealthy hyperuniform ground states in dimensions d=2–8, which have only recently been made possible due to a highly parallelized algorithm.

Modified Bessel functions of the second kind are widely used in physics, engineering, spatial statistics, and machine learning. Since contemporary scientific applications, including machine learning, rely on GPUs for acceleration, providing robust GPU-hosted implementations of special functions, such as the modified Bessel function, is crucial for performance. Existing implementations of the modified Bessel function of the second kind rely on CPUs and have limited coverage of the full range of values needed in some applications. In this work, we present a robust implementation of the modified Bessel function of the second kind on GPUs, eliminating the dependence on the CPU host. We cover a range of values commonly used in real applications, providing high accuracy compared to common libraries like the GNU Scientific Library (GSL) when referenced to Mathematica as the authority. Our GPU-accelerated approach also demonstrates a 2.68X performance improvement using a single A100 GPU compared to the GSL on 40-core Intel Cascade Lake CPUs. Our implementation is integrated into ExaGeoStat, the HPC framework for Gaussian process modeling, where the modified Bessel function of the second kind is required by the Matérn covariance function in generating covariance matrices. We accelerate the matrix generation process in ExaGeoStat by up to 12.62X with four A100 GPUs while maintaining almost the same accuracy for modeling and prediction operations using synthetic and real datasets.

We report a molecular dynamics study of ab initio quality of the ferroelectric phase transition in crystalline PbTiO3. We model anharmonicity accurately in terms of potential energy and polarization surfaces trained on density functional theory data with modern machine learning techniques. Our simulations demonstrate that the transition has a strong order-disorder character, in agreement with diffraction experiments, and provide fresh insight into the approach to equilibrium across the phase transition. We find that the emergence and disappearance of the macroscopic polarization is driven by dipolar switching at the nanometer scale. We also computed the infrared optical absorption spectra in both the ferroelectric and the paraelectric phases, finding good agreement with the experimental Raman frequencies. Often, the almost ideal displacive character of the soft mode detected by Raman scattering in the paraelectric phase has been contrasted with the order-disorder character of the transition suggested by diffraction experiments. We settle this issue by showing that the soft mode coexists with a strong Debye relaxation associated with thermal disordering of the dipoles. The Debye relaxation feature is centered at zero frequency and appears near the transition temperature in both the ferroelectric and the paraelectric phases.
