Statistical physics of balance theory. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Triadic relationships are accepted to play a key role in the dynamics of social and political networks. Building on insights gleaned from balance theory in social network studies and from Boltzmann-Gibbs statistical physics, we propose a model to ...

Statistical physics of design

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2018
A key challenge in complex design problems that permeate science and engineering is the need to balance design objectives for specific design elements or subsystems with global system objectives. Global objectives give rise to competing design pressures,

Understanding Search Trees via Statistical Physics [PDF]

open access: green, 2004
We study the random m-ary search tree model (where m stands for the number of branches of a search tree), an important problem for data storage in computer science, using a variety of statistical physics techniques that allow us to obtain exact ...
