A photonic quasicrystal consists of two or more dielectric materials arranged in a quasiperiodic pattern with noncrystallographic symmetry that has a photonic band gap. We use a novel method to find the pattern with the widest TM-polarized gap for two-component materials. Patterns are obtained by computing a finite sum of density waves, assigning regions where the sum exceeds a threshold to a material with one dielectric constant, ϵ1, and all other regions to another, ϵ0. Compared to optimized crystals, optimized quasicrystals have larger gaps at low constrasts ϵ1/ϵ0 and have gaps that are much more isotropic for all contrasts. For high contrasts, optimized hexagonal crystals have the largest gaps.

We consider the construction of point processes from tilings, with equal-volume tiles, of d-dimensional Euclidean space Rd. We show that one can generate, with simple algorithms ascribing one or more points to each tile, point processes which are “superhomogeneous” (or “hyperuniform”)—i.e., for which the structure factor S(k) vanishes when the wave vector k tends to zero. The exponent γ characterizing the leading small-k behavior, S(k→0)∝kγ, depends in a simple manner on the nature of the correlation properties of the specific tiling and on the conservation of the mass moments of the tiles. Assigning one point to the center of mass of each tile gives the exponent γ=4 for any tiling in which the shapes and orientations of the tiles are short-range correlated. Smaller exponents in the range 4−d<γ<4 (and thus always superhomogeneous for d≤4) may be obtained in the case that the latter quantities have long-range correlations. Assigning more than one point to each tile in an appropriate way, we show that one can obtain arbitrarily higher exponents in both cases. We illustrate our results with explicit constructions using known deterministic tilings, as well as some simple stochastic tilings for which we can calculate S(k) exactly. Our results provide an explicit analytical construction of point processes with γ>4. Applications to condensed matter physics, and also to cosmology, are briefly discussed.

Variational boundary conditions for molecular dynamics simulations of crystalline solids at finite temperature: Treatment of the thermal bath

引用

Physical Review B 2007年第10期76卷 104107-104107页

作者： Xiantao Li Weinan E Department of Mathematics and Program in Applied and Computational Mathematics Princeton University Princeton New Jersey 08544 USA

This paper presents a systematic approach for finding efficient boundary conditions for molecular dynamics simulations of crystalline solids. These boundary conditions effectively eliminate phonon reflection at the boundary and at the same time allow the thermal energy from the bath to be introduced to the system. Our starting point is the Mori-Zwanzig formalism [R. Zwanzig, J. Chem. Phys. 32, 1173 (1960); in Systems Far from Equilibrium, edited by L. Garrido (Interscience, New York, 1980); H. Mori, Prog. Theor. Phys. 33, 423 (1965)] for eliminating the thermal bath, but we take the crucial next step that goes beyond this formalism in order to obtain memory kernels that decay faster. An equivalent variational formulation allows us to find the optimal approximate boundary conditions, after specifying the spatial-temporal domain of dependence for the positions of the boundary atoms. Application to a one-dimensional chain, a two-dimensional Lennard-Jones system, and a three-dimensional model of α-iron with embedded atom potential is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach.

Coarse-grained computations of demixing in dense gas-fluidized beds

We use an “equation-free,” coarse-grained computational approach to accelerate molecular dynamics-based computations of demixing (segregation) of dissimilar particles subject to an upward gas flow (gas-fluidized beds). We explore the coarse-grained dynamics of these phenomena in gently fluidized beds of solid mixtures of different densities, typically a slow process for which reasonable continuum models are currently unavailable.

Ab initio evaluation of Coulomb and exchange parameters for DFT+U calculations

Physical Review B 2007年第15期76卷 155123-155123页

Conventional density functional theory (DFT) fails for materials with strongly correlated electrons, such as late transition metal oxides. Large errors in the intra-atomic Coulomb and exchange interactions are the source of this failure. The DFT+U method has provided a means, through empirical parameters, to correct these errors. Here, we present a systematic ab initio approach in evaluating the intra-atomic Coulomb and exchange terms, U and J, respectively, in order to make the DFT+U method a fully first-principles technique. The method is based on a relationship between these terms and the Coulomb and exchange integrals evaluated in the basis of unrestricted Hartree-Fock molecular orbitals that represent localized states of the extended system. We used this ab initio scheme to evaluate U and J for chromia (Cr2O3). The resulting values are somewhat higher than those determined earlier either empirically or in constrained DFT calculations but have the advantage of originating from an ab initio theory containing exact exchange. Subsequent DFT+U calculations on chromia using the ab initio derived U and J yield properties consistent with experiment, unlike conventional DFT. Overall, the technique developed and tested in this work holds promise in enabling accurate and fully predictive DFT+U calculations of strongly correlated electron materials.

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides dynamical access into the complex functioning of the human brain, detailing the hemodynamic activity of thousands of voxels during hundreds of sequential time points. One approach towards illuminating the connection between fMRI and cognitive function is through decoding; how do the time series of voxel activities combine to provide information about internal and external experience? Here we seek models of fMRI decoding which are balanced between the simplicity of their interpretation and the effectiveness of their prediction. We use signals from a subject immersed in virtual reality to compare global and local methods of prediction applying both linear and nonlinear techniques of dimensionality reduction. We find that the prediction of complex stimuli is remarkably low-dimensional, saturating with less than 100 features. In particular, we build effective models based on the decorrelated components of cognitive activity in the classically-defined Brodmann areas. For some of the stimuli, the top predictive areas were surprisingly transparent, including Wernicke's area for verbal instructions, visual cortex for facial and body features, and visual-temporal regions for velocity. Direct sensory experience resulted in the most robust predictions, with the highest correlation (c ~ 0.8) between the predicted and experienced time series of verbal instructions. Techniques based on non-linear dimensionality reduction (Laplacian eigenmaps) performed similarly. The interpretability and relative simplicity of our approach provides a conceptual basis upon which to build more sophisticated techniques for fMRI decoding and offers a window into cognitive function during dynamic, natural experience.

Uncertainity quantification for atomistic reaction models: An equation-free stochastic simulation algorithm example

引用

Multiscale Modeling and Simulation 2007年第4期6卷 1217-1233页

作者： Zou, Yu Keverekidis, Ioannis G. Citigroup 388 Greenwhich Street New York NY 10013 United States Department of Chemical Engineering and Program in Applied and COmputational Mathematics Princeton University Princeton NJ 08544 United States

We describe a computational framework linking uncertainty quantification (UQ) methods for continuum problems depending on random parameters with equation-free (EF) methods for performing continuum deterministic numerics by acting directly on atomistic/stochastic simulators. Our illustrative example is a heterogeneous catalytic reaction mechanism with an uncertain atomistic kineticparameter;the "inner" dynamic simulator of choice is a Gillespie stochastic simulation algorithm(SSA). We demonstrate UQ computations at the coarse-grained level, in a nonintrusive way, throughthe design of brief, appropriately initialized computational experiments with the SSA code. The system is thus observed at three levels: (a) a fine scale for each stochastic simulation at each value of the uncertain parameter;(b) an intermediate coarse-grained state for the expected behavior of the SSA at each value of the uncertain parameter;and (c) the desired fully coarse-grained level: distributions of the coarse-grained behavior over the range of uncertain parameter values The latter are computed in the form of generalized polynomial chaos (gPC) coefficients in terms of the random parameter. Coarse projective integration and coarse fixed point computation are employed to accelerate the computational evolution of these desired observables, to converge on random stable/ unstable steady states, and to perform parametric studies with respect to other (nonrandom) system parameters. © 2008 Society for Industrial and applied mathematics.

Synthetic diamond and wurtzite structures self-assemble with isotropic pair interactions

Physical Review E 2007年第3期75卷 031403-031403页

Using inverse statistical-mechanical optimization techniques, we have discovered isotropic pair interaction potentials with strongly repulsive cores that cause the tetrahedrally coordinated diamond and wurtzite lattices to stabilize, as evidenced by lattice sums, phonon spectra, positive-energy defects, and self-assembly in classical molecular dynamics simulations. These results challenge conventional thinking that such open lattices can only be created via directional covalent interactions observed in nature. Thus, our discovery adds to fundamental understanding of the nature of the solid state by showing that isotropic interactions enable the self-assembly of open crystal structures with a broader range of coordination number than previously thought. Our work is important technologically because of its direct relevance generally to the science of self-assembly and specifically to photonic crystal fabrication.
