Computational and analytical aspects of energy minimisation problems in cholesteric, ferronematic and smectic liquid crystals

<p>Liquid crystals are widely used in display devices and their indispensable applications have driven more than a century of scientific investigations. They are of great interest in physics, for their striking defect structures, e.g., defect walls and focal conics in smectics; and in mathemat...
