Homotopy in statistical physics [PDF]
Condensed 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.

Possible route to efficient thermoelectric applications in a driven fractal network
Scientific Reports, 2021 An essential attribute of many fractal structures is self-similarity. A Sierpinski gasket (SPG) triangle is a promising example of a fractal lattice that exhibits localized energy eigenstates.

On the Kaniadakis Distributions Applied in Statistical Physics and Natural Sciences. [PDF]
Entropy (Basel), 2023 Constitutive relations are fundamental and essential to characterize physical systems. By utilizing the $\kappa$-deformed functions, some constitutive relations are generalized.

Wang--Landau algorithm for entropic sampling of arch-based microstates in the volume ensemble of static granular packings [PDF]
Papers in Physics, 2015 We implement the Wang-Landau algorithm to sample with equal probabilities the static configurations of a model granular system. The "non-interacting rigid arch model" used is based on the description of static configurations by means of splitting the ...

Statistical Physics for cosmic structures [PDF]
Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2002 Ideas of Statistical Physics are very relevant for cosmic structures especially considering that the field is undergoing a period of exceptional development with many new data appearing on a monthly basis. In the past years we have focused mostly on galaxy distributions and their statistical properties.

An Agent-Based Statistical Physics Model for Political Polarization: A Monte Carlo Study. [PDF]
Entropy (Basel), 2023 International audienceWorld-wide, political polarization continues unabated, undermining collective decision-making ability. In this issue, we have examined polarization dynamics using a (mean-field) model borrowed from statistical physics, assuming that

Good just isn't good enough - Humean chances and Boltzmannian statistical physics [PDF]
, 2013 Statistical physicists assume a probability distribution over micro-states to explain thermodynamic behavior. The question of this paper is whether these probabilities are part of a best system and can thus be interpreted as Humean chances.

The Statistical Foundations of Entropy
, 2021 During the last few decades, the notion of entropy has become omnipresent in many scientific disciplines, ranging from traditional applications in statistical physics and chemistry, information theory, and statistical estimation to more recent ...
