Ricci Curvature on Birth-Death Processes
Axioms, 2023 In this paper, we study curvature dimension conditions on birth-death processes which correspond to linear graphs, i.e., weighted graphs supported on the infinite line or the half line. We give a combinatorial characterization of Bakry and Émery’s CD(K,n)

The curvature of the QCD phase transition line [PDF]
Proceedings of The XXVI International Symposium on Lattice Field Theory — PoS(LATTICE 2008), 2009 We determine the curvature of the phase transition line in the mu-T plane through an analysis of various observables, including the Polyakov loop, the quark number susceptibilities and the susceptibility of the chiral condensate. The second derivative of these quantities with respect to mu was calculated.

Continuous-Curvature Path Generation Using Fermat's Spiral [PDF]
Modeling, Identification and Control, 2013 This paper proposes a novel methodology, based on Fermat's spiral (FS), for constructing curvature-continuous parametric paths in a plane. FS has a zero curvature at its origin, a property that allows it to be connected with a straight line smoothly ...
