We consider a class of random block matrix models in $d$ dimensions, $d ge 1$, motivated by the study of the vibrational density of states (DOS) of soft spheres near the isostatic point. The contact networks of average degree $Z = z_0 + zeta$ are represented by random $z_0$-regular graphs (only the circle graph in $d=1$ with $z_0=2$) to which Erdos-Renyi graphs having a small average degree $zeta$ are superimposed. In the case $d=1$, for $zeta$ small the shifted Kesten-McKay DOS with parameter $Z$ is a mean-field solution for the DOS. Numerical simulations in the $z_0=2$ model, which is the $k=1$ Newman-Watts small-world model, and in the $z_0=3$ model lead us to conjecture that for $zeta to 0$ the cumulative function of the DOS converges uniformly to that of the shifted Kesten-McKay DOS, in an interval $[0, omega_0]$, with $omega_0 < sqrt{z_0-1} + 1$. For $2 le d le 4$, we introduce a cutoff parameter $K_d le 0.5$ modeling sphere repulsion. The case $K_d=0$ is the random elastic network case, with the DOS close to the Marchenko-Pastur DOS with parameter $t=frac{Z}{d}$. For $K_d$ large the DOS is close for small $omega$ to the shifted Kesten-McKay DOS with parameter $t=frac{Z}{d}$; in the isostatic case the DOS has around $omega=0$ the expected plateau. The boson peak frequency in $d=3$ with $K_3$ large is close to the one found in molecular dynamics simulations for $Z=7$ and $8$.

Packing spheres efficiently in large dimension $d$ is a particularly difficult optimization problem. In this paper we add an isotropic interaction potential to the pure hard-core repulsion, and show that one can tune it in order to maximize a lower b ound on packing density. Our results suggest that exponentially many (in the number of particles) distinct disordered sphere packings can be effectively constructed by this method, up to a packing fraction close to $7, d, 2^{-d}$. The latter is determined by solving the inverse problem of maximizing the dynamical glass transition over the space of the interaction potentials. Our method crucially exploits a recent exact formulation of the thermodynamics and the dynamics of simple liquids in infinite dimension.
We study a recently introduced and exactly solvable mean-field model for the density of vibrational states $mathcal{D}(omega)$ of a structurally disordered system. The model is formulated as a collection of disordered anharmonic oscillators, with ran dom stiffness $kappa$ drawn from a distribution $p(kappa)$, subjected to a constant field $h$ and interacting bilinearly with a coupling of strength $J$. We investigate the vibrational properties of its ground state at zero temperature. When $p(kappa)$ is gapped, the emergent $mathcal{D}(omega)$ is also gapped, for small $J$. Upon increasing $J$, the gap vanishes on a critical line in the $(h,J)$ phase diagram, whereupon replica symmetry is broken. At small $h$, the form of this pseudogap is quadratic, $mathcal{D}(omega)simomega^2$, and its modes are delocalized, as expected from previously investigated mean-field spin glass models. However, we determine that for large enough $h$, a quartic pseudogap $mathcal{D}(omega)simomega^4$, populated by localized modes, emerges, the two regimes being separated by a special point on the critical line. We thus uncover that mean-field disordered systems can generically display both a quadratic-delocalized and a quartic-localized spectrum at the glass transition.
Certain density correlators, measurable via various experimental techniques, are studied in the context of the vulcanization transition. It is shown that these correlators contain essential information about both the vulcanization transition and the emergent amorphous solid state. Contact is made with various physical ingredients that have featured in experimental studies of amorphous colloidal and gel systems and in theoretical studies of the glassy state.
In this paper we numerically investigate the influence of dissipation during particle collisions in an homogeneous turbulent velocity field by coupling a discrete element method to a Lattice-Boltzmann simulation with spectral forcing. We show that ev en at moderate particle volume fractions the influence of dissipative collisions is important. We also investigate the transition from a regime where the turbulent velocity field significantly influences the spatial distribution of particles to a regime where the distribution is mainly influenced by particle collisions.
We investigate the critical properties of the Ising model in two dimensions on {it directed} small-world lattice with quenched connectivity disorder. The disordered system is simulated by applying the Monte Carlo update heat bath algorithm. We calcul ate the critical temperature, as well as the critical exponents $gamma/ u$, $beta/ u$, and $1/ u$ for several values of the rewiring probability $p$. We find that this disorder system does not belong to the same universality class as the regular two-dimensional ferromagnetic model. The Ising model on {it directed} small-world lattices presents in fact a second-order phase transition with new critical exponents which do not dependent of $p$, but are identical to the exponents of the Ising model and the spin-1 Blume-Capel model on {it directed} small-world network.
