Thermodynamics of non-elementary chemical reaction networks
New Journal of Physics, 2020 We develop a thermodynamic framework for closed and open chemical networks applicable to non-elementary reactions that do not need to obey mass action kinetics.

Fractional statistical mechanics [PDF]
Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2006 The Liouville and first Bogoliubov hierarchy equations with derivatives of noninteger order are derived. The fractional Liouville equation is obtained from the conservation of probability to find a system in a fractional volume element. This equation is used to obtain Bogoliubov hierarchy and fractional kinetic equations with fractional derivatives ...

Justifying Typicality Measures of Boltzmannian Statistical Mechanics and Dynamical Systems [PDF]
, 2013 A popular view in contemporary Boltzmannian statistical mechanics is to interpret the measures as typicality measures. In dynamical systems theory measures can similarly be interpreted as typicality measures.

Stochastic thermodynamics of all-to-all interacting many-body systems
New Journal of Physics, 2020 We provide a stochastic thermodynamic description across scales for N identical units with all-to-all interactions that are driven away from equilibrium by different reservoirs and external forces.

Typicality and the Approach to Equilibrium in Boltzmannian Statistical Mechanics [PDF]
, 2009 Systems prepared in a non-equilibrium state approach, and eventually reach, equilibrium. Why do they do so? An important contemporary version of the Boltzmannian approach to statistical mechanics answers this question in terms of typicality.

Thermodynamic efficiency in dissipative chemistry
Nature Communications, 2019 Open chemical systems operate out of equilibrium, providing more opportunities than closed systems, but a theoretical framework to describe their performance is lacking. Here, the authors assess the efficiency of two classes of dissipative processes with

Introduction to Statistical Mechanics of Charged Systems [PDF]
, 2004 The paper is the summary of lectures given in São Carlos, Brazil during the 2004 Summer School on Statistical Mechanics. My objective was to provide the students with some basic tools necessary to study the thermodynamics of Coulomb systems.

Negative differential response in chemical reactions
New Journal of Physics, 2019 Reaction currents in chemical networks usually increase when increasing their driving affinities. But far from equilibrium the opposite can also happen. We find that such negative differential response (NDR) occurs in reaction schemes of major biological

The statistical mechanics of membranes [PDF]
Physics Reports, 2001 The fluctuations of two-dimensional extended objects membranes is a rich and exciting field with many solid results and a wide range of open issues. We review the distinct universality classes of membranes, determined by the local order, and the associated phase diagrams.
