Inferential vs. Dynamical Conceptions of Physics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
I contrast two possible attitudes towards a given branch of physics: as inferential (i.e., as concerned with an agent's ability to make predictions given finite information), and as dynamical (i.e., as concerned with the dynamical equations governing ...

Hot and Heavy Matters in the Foundations of Statistical Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Are the generalizations of classical equilibrium thermodynamics true of self-gravitating systems? This question has not been addressed from a foundational perspective, but here I tackle it through a study of the "paradoxes" commonly said to afflict such ...

A current algebra approach to the equilibrium classical statistical mechanics and its applications

open access: yesCondensed Matter Physics, 2013
The non-relativistic current algebra approach is analyzed subject to its application to studying the distribution functions of many-particle systems at the temperature equilibrium and their stability properties.

A context‐dependent modulatory role for eIF6 in acquired resistance to vemurafenib in melanoma

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Acquired resistance to vemurafenib upregulates the translation factor eIF6 in melanoma cells. Silencing eIF6 in resistant cells reduces proliferation and partially restores drug sensitivity, whereas its overexpression increases sensitivity across melanoma lines regardless of BRAF status, via modulation of mTOR, S6K, and MAPK signaling.

On the foundations of a new approach to statistical mechanics of classical systems

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1980
It has been known for a long time that the fundamental approaches to equilibrium and nonequillbrium statistical mechanics available at present lead to physical and mathematical inconsistencies for dense systems.

Probability, Entropy, and Gibbs’ Paradox(es)

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
Two distinct puzzles, which are both known as Gibbs’ paradox, have interested physicists since they were first identified in the 1870s. They each have significance for the foundations of statistical mechanics and have led to lively discussions with

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

Between classical and quantum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The relationship between classical and quantum theory is of central importance to the philosophy of physics, and any interpretation of quantum mechanics has to clarify it.

A simple ansatz for the study of velocity autocorrelation functions in fluids at different timescales

open access: yesCondensed Matter Physics, 2018
A simple ansatz for the study of velocity autocorrelation functions in fluids at different timescales is proposed. The ansatz is based on an effective summation of the infinite continued fraction at a reasonable assumption about convergence of relaxation
