A novel model, devised to describe spontaneous chirality synchronization in complex liquids and liquid crystals, is proposed and studied. Segments of ribbon-like molecular columns with left- or right-handed 180degree twist lie on the bonds of a honeycomb lattice so that three ribbons meet in a vertex of the hexagonal honeycomb. The energy of each vertex is a minimum if the three ribbons have the same chirality, -E, and is +E otherwise, and the ground state is homochiral, i.e. all ribbons have the same hand. The energy levels for two vertices linked by a single ribbon are either -2E, 0 and +2 E in this vertex model. Monte Carlo simulations demonstrate that this model is identical to an Ising spin model on a Kagome lattice, for which the site energy structure is quite different. The equivalence of the ordering of the vertex and Ising spin models is also shown analytically. The energy difference between the disordered and ground states, 4J in the spin model, is related to the transition temperature for the Kagome lattice using the exact result, Tc=2.14J. The ordering energy difference for a single site is 50% higher for the vertex model. The thermodynamic energy for the vertex model is corrected by a factor of 1/3 due to double counting and this makes the specific heat of the vertex model also equal to that of the spin model as expected. Other similar models where there is an unusual relation between the site and thermodynamic energies are discussed briefly.

We argue that a system of straight rigid rods of length k on square lattice with only hard-core interactions shows two phase transitions as a function of density, rho, for k >= 7. The system undergoes a phase transition from the low-density disordere
d phase to a nematic phase as rho is increased from 0, at rho = rho_c1, and then again undergoes a reentrant phase transition from the nematic phase to a disordered phase at rho = rho_c2 < 1.
We study the ordering statistics of 4 random walkers on the line, obtaining a much improved estimate for the long-time decay exponent of the probability that a particle leads to time $t$; $P_{rm lead}(t)sim t^{-0.91287850}$, and that a particle lags
to time $t$ (never assumes the lead); $P_{rm lag}(t)sim t^{-0.30763604}$. Exponents of several other ordering statistics for $N=4$ walkers are obtained to 8 digits accuracy as well. The subtle correlations between $n$ walkers that lag {em jointly}, out of a field of $N$, are discussed: For $N=3$ there are no correlations and $P_{rm lead}(t)sim P_{rm lag}(t)^2$. In contrast, our results rule out the possibility that $P_{rm lead}(t)sim P_{rm lag}(t)^3$ for $N=4$, though the correlations in this borderline case are tiny.
We propose a model based on extreme value statistics (EVS) and combine it with different models for single asperity contact, including adhesive and elasto-plastic contacts, to derive a relation between the applied load and the friction force on a rou
gh interface. We find that when the summit distribution is Gumbel, and the contact model is Hertzian we have the closest conformity with Amontons law. The range over which Gumbel distribution mimics Amontons law is wider than the Greenwood-Williamson Model. However exact conformity with Amontons law does not seem for any of the well-known EVS distributions. On the other hand plastic deformations in contact area reduce the relative change of pressure slightly with Gumbel distribution. Elastic-plastic contact mixes with Gumbel distribution for summits. it shows the best conformity with Amonton`s law. Other extreme value statistics are also studied, and results presented. We combine Gumbel distribution with GW-Mc Cool model which is an improved case of GW model, it takes into account a bandwidth for wavelengths of {alpha}. Comparison of this model with original GW-Mc Cool model and other simplifie
The $s=1$ spinor Bose condensate at zero temperature supports ferromagnetic and polar phases that combine magnetic and superfluid ordering. We investigate the formation of magnetic domains at finite temperature and magnetic field in two dimensions in
an optical trap. We study the general ground state phase diagram of a spin-1 system and focus on a phase that has a magnetic Ising order parameter and numerically determine the nature of the finite temperature superfluid and magnetic phase transitions. We then study three different dynamical models: model A, which has no conserved quantities, model F, which has a conserved second sound mode and the Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equation which has a conserved density and magnetization. We find the dynamic critical exponent to be the same for models A and F ($z=2$) but different for GP ($z approx 3$). Externally imposed magnetization conservation in models A and F yields the value $z approx 3$, which demonstrates that the only conserved density relevant to domain formation is the magnetization density.
Antiferromagnetically coupled Ising s =3 spins on a triangular lattice are very close to ordering at zero temperature. The low temperature behaviour of a triangular lattice with Ising spins s =3 has been simulated by using both Glauber and Kawasaki d
ynamics. The formation of misfit clusters, which are essential for destabilizing the ordered state, are inhibited by the use of Kawasaki dynamics. The sublattice susceptibilities and the sublattice order parameter are found to depend qualitatively on the dynamics used so that robust ordering occurs when Kawasaki dynamics are employed. The thermal behaviour that is found for the spin model with Kawasaki dynamics gives insight into the observed ordering of side chains seen in a tetraphilic liquid crystal.
