This Perspective article provides an overview of some of our analytical approaches to the
computation of the structural and thermodynamic properties of single-component and …

The most accepted origin for the water anomalous behavior is the phase transition between
two liquids (LLPT) in the supercooled regime connected to the glassy first order phase …

Core-softened approaches have been employed to understand the behavior of a large
variety of systems in soft condensed matter, from biological molecules to colloidal crystals …

In this paper, we investigate the phase diagram of a dumbbell model composed of two hard-
core soft-corona beads through NpT simulations. We chose this particular system due to its …

We revisit the competition between attractive and repulsive interparticle forces in simple
fluids and how this governs and connects the macroscopic phase behavior and structural …

Geometrical constraints offer a promising strategy for assembling colloidal crystal structures
that are not typically observed in bulk or under 2D conditions. Core-softened colloids, in …

The interaction between hard core–soft shell colloids are characterized by having two
characteristic distances: one associated with the penetrable, soft corona and another one …

The exact statistical-mechanical solution for the equilibrium properties, both thermodynamic
and structural, of one-dimensional fluids of particles interacting via the triangle-well and the …

The so-called Jagla fluid is well known to exhibit, in addition to the usual gas-liquid critical
point, also a liquid-liquid critical point, as well as a density anomaly. This makes it an …

Recently, Krüger and Vlugt [Phys. Rev. E 97, 051301 (R)(2018) 2470-0045
10.1103/PhysRevE. 97.051301] have proposed a method to approximate an improper …
