Equilibrium statistical mechanics of a grain boundary

In this article we introduce, develop and discuss the theoretical calculations required for the exact solution of a recently reported transition, the geodesic to zigzag transition. In this scenario the interfacial transition emerges from geometric competition between a geodesic, shortest path, confi...
