A microscopic density functional theory of adsorption of chain molecules on the attractive solid surfaces of crystalline symmetry is developed. The proposed approach is based on the expansions of one-particle functions into ...

We use a version of the density functional theory to study the changes in the height of the tethered layer of chains built of jointed spherical segments with the change of the length and surface density of chains. For the ...

Using a simple one-dimensional Frenkel-Kontorowa type model, we have demonstrated that finite commensurate chains may undergo the commensurate-incommensurate (C-IC) transition when the chain is contaminated by isolated ...

We have studied the structure and thermodynamic properties of isotropic three dimensional core-softened fluid by using the second-order Ornstein-Zernike integral equations completed by the hypernetted chain and Percus-Yevick ...

The Editorial Board of "Condensed Matter Physics" congratulates our good friend and a member of the Editorial Board on the occasion of his birthday anniversary and acknowledges his unique and valuable contribution to ...

We investigate the electric double layer formed between charged walls of a slit-like pore and a solvent primitive model (SPM) for electrolyte solution. The recently developed version of the weighted density functional ...

We develop a density functional approach for the phase behavior of the restricted primitive model for electrolyte solutions confined to slit-like pores. The theory permits to evaluate the effects of confinement on the ionic ...
