This three-year award supports collaborative research in statistical mechanics between Fa Y. Wu, Northeastern University with Jean- Marie Maillard, University of Paris. They will collaborate on models of critical point phenomena, such as boiling and freezing, and phase transitions. They will examine the chiral Potts model, gauge transformations, other 3-state vertex models and the theory of transmissivity as applied to these models. The investigators will focus on exact solutions, but will also utilize numerical approaches and computer simulation, which is important to finding exact results. Analytical studies and computer simulations will be performed by Wu and Maillard on massive parallel computers. Critical point phenomena and phase transitions are active areas of research in condensed matter theory. This work also impacts theoretical physics and applied mathematics. Dr. Wu is a theoretician. He will provide theoretical guidance and analytical expertise. Dr. Maillard is experienced in computer simulations on the chiral Potts model and other 3-state vertex models. The project will benefit from their complementary expertise and parallel computer facilities.

这项为期三年的奖项支持东北大学Fa Y. Wu与巴黎大学Jean-Marie Maillard之间的统计力学合作研究。 他们将在关键点现象的模型上进行合作，例如沸腾和冷冻以及相变。 他们将检查手性potts模型，量规变换，其他三态顶点模型以及应用于这些模型的透射率理论。 研究人员将专注于精确的解决方案，但也将利用数值方法和计算机模拟，这对于找到确切的结果很重要。分析研究和计算机模拟将由WU和Maillard对大规模平行计算机进行。 关键点现象和相变是凝结物质理论中研究的活跃领域。 这项工作还影响理论物理和应用数学。 吴博士是理论家。 他将提供理论指导和分析专业知识。 Maillard博士在手性Potts模型和其他三州顶点型号的计算机模拟中经验丰富。 该项目将受益于其互补的专业知识和并行的计算机设施。
