Projects
- We investigate the phase-diagram of charged
solutions made of electrolytes, charged colloids and polyelectrolyes.
- We propose a complex made of one charged polyelectrolyte
and amphiphilic molecules. This system has applications for
drug deliver mechanism.
- The dynamics of supercool water is explored in order to check for anomalies.
- We study both the statics and the dynamics of complex systems
characterized by disorder and/or frustration such as spin glasses,
structural glasses, granular media and neural networks.
- We study domain growth in magnetic and fluid systems.
- We study the spatial version of the Prisoner's Dilemma to study the
emergence of cooperative behavior.
