Modular operads with connected sum and Barannikov’s theory

Lada Peksová (2020)

Archivum Mathematicum

We introduce the connected sum for modular operads. This gives us a graded commutative associative product, and together with the BV bracket and the BV Laplacian obtained from the operadic composition and self-composition, we construct the full Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra. The BV Laplacian is then used as a perturbation of the special deformation retract of formal functions to construct a minimal model and compute an effective action.

Multiscale Materials Modelling: Case Studies at the Atomistic and Electronic Structure Levels

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Although the intellectual merits of computational modelling across various length and time scales are generally well accepted, good illustrative examples are often lacking. One way to begin appreciating the benefits of the multiscale approach is to first gain experience in probing complex physical phenomena at one scale at a time. Here we discuss materials modelling at two characteristic scales separately, the atomistic level where interactions are specified through classical potentials and the...
