Models of dark matter halos based on statistical mechanics: The fermionic King model [PDF]
, 2014 We discuss the nature of phase transitions in the fermionic King model which describes tidally truncated quantum self-gravitating systems. This distribution function takes into account the escape of high energy particles and has a finite mass.

The Mechanics and Statistics of Active Matter [PDF]
, 2010 Active particles contain internal degrees of freedom with the ability to take in and dissipate energy and, in the process, execute systematic movement. Examples include all living organisms and their motile constituents such as molecular motors.

Investigation of Random Matrix Theory for Statistical Mechanics and Quantum Physics Applications
Mathematical Statistician and Engineering Applications, 2021 Due to its capability to explain large systems with chaotic behaviour, Random Matrix Theory (RMT) has drawn a lot of interest in the domains of Statistical Mechanics and Quantum Physics.

Range separation: The divide between local structures and field theories [PDF]
, 2019 This work presents parallel histories of the development of two modern theories of condensed matter: the theory of electron structure in quantum mechanics, and the theory of liquid structure in statistical mechanics. Comparison shows that key revelations

Thermodynamic Limit in Statistical Physics [PDF]
, 2014 The thermodynamic limit in statistical thermodynamics of many-particle systems is an important but often overlooked issue in the various applied studies of condensed matter physics. To settle this issue, we review tersely the past and present disposition

"Deconfined" quantum critical points [PDF]
, 2003 The theory of second order phase transitions is one of the foundations of modern statistical mechanics and condensed matter theory. A central concept is the observable `order parameter', whose non-zero average value characterizes one or more phases and ...

Statistical Mechanics of Deep Learning
Annual Review of Condensed Matter Physics, 2020 The recent striking success of deep neural networks in machine learning raises profound questions about the theoretical principles underlying their success. For example, what can such deep networks compute? How can we train them?

Experimentally Accessible Witnesses of Many-Body Localization [PDF]
, 2019 The phenomenon of many-body localized (MBL) systems has attracted significant interest in recent years, for its intriguing implications from a perspective of both condensed-matter and statistical physics: they are insulators even at non-zero temperature ...

On Renormalization Group Flows and Polymer Algebras [PDF]
, 1994 In this talk methods for a rigorous control of the renormalization group (RG) flow of field theories are discussed. The RG equations involve the flow of an infinite number of local partition functions.
