Combinatorics and Statistical Mechanics of Integer Partitions [PDF]
Entropy, 2023 We study the set of integer partitions as a probability space that generates distributions and, in the asymptotic limit, obeys thermodynamics. We view ordered integer partition as a configuration of cluster masses and associate them with the distribution

Statistical mechanics of money [PDF]
The European Physical Journal B, 2000 In a closed economic system, money is conserved. Thus, by analogy with energy, the equilibrium probability distribution of money must follow the exponential Gibbs law characterized by an effective temperature equal to the average amount of money per ...

Statistical mechanics of biomolecular condensates via cavity methods [PDF]
iScience, 2023 Summary: Physical mechanisms of phase separation in living systems play key physiological roles and have recently been the focus of intensive studies. The strongly heterogeneous nature of such phenomena poses difficult modeling challenges that require ...

Interventionism in Statistical Mechanics [PDF]
Entropy, 2012 I defend the idea that the fact that no system is entirely isolated (“Interventionism”) can be used to explain the successful use of the microcanonical distribution in statistical mechanics.

Statistical Mechanics of Thin Spherical Shells
Physical Review X, 2017 We explore how thermal fluctuations affect the mechanics of thin amorphous spherical shells. In flat membranes with a shear modulus, thermal fluctuations increase the bending rigidity and reduce the in-plane elastic moduli in a scale-dependent fashion ...

The Smoluchowski Ensemble—Statistical Mechanics of Aggregation [PDF]
Entropy, 2020 We present a rigorous thermodynamic treatment of irreversible binary aggregation. We construct the Smoluchowski ensemble as the set of discrete finite distributions that are reached in fixed number of merging events and define a probability measure on ...
