Homotopy in statistical physics [PDF]

open access: yesCondensed Matter Physics, 2006
In condensed matter physics and related areas, topological defects play important roles in phase transitions and critical phenomena. Homotopy theory facilitates the classification of such topological defects.

Statistical Physics of Evolving Systems [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
Evolution is customarily perceived as a biological process. However, when formulated in terms of physics, evolution is understood to entail everything.

Understanding search trees via statistical physics [PDF]

open access: green, 2005
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 ...

Discussion on Electron Temperature of Gas-Discharge Plasma with Non-Maxwellian Electron Energy Distribution Function Based on Entropy and Statistical Physics [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
Electron temperature is reconsidered for weakly-ionized oxygen and nitrogen plasmas with its discharge pressure of a few hundred Pa, with its electron density of the order of 1017m−3 and in a state of non-equilibrium, based on thermodynamics and ...

Complexity, parallel computation and statistical physics [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2006
The intuition that a long history is required for the emergence of complexity in natural systems is formalized using the notion of depth. The depth of a system is defined in terms of the number of parallel computational steps needed to simulate it. Depth

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 ...

Inferring potential landscapes from noisy trajectories of particles within an optical feedback trap

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: While particle trajectories encode information on their governing potentials, potentials can be challenging to robustly extract from trajectories.

Insights into the quantification and reporting of model-related uncertainty across different disciplines

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Quantifying uncertainty associated with our models is the only way we can express how much we know about any phenomenon. Incomplete consideration of model-based uncertainties can lead to overstated conclusions with real-world impacts in diverse ...
