Statistical physics of complex information dynamics. [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2020 The constituents of a complex system exchange information to function properly. Their signaling dynamics often leads to the appearance of emergent phenomena, such as phase transitions and collective behaviors.

Capture and transport of rod-shaped cargo via programmable active particles
Scientific Reports, 2023 We study the influence of the cargo shape on the capture and transport process of colloidal rods via swarms of active particles using Brownian dynamics simulations.

Statistical physics of social dynamics [PDF]
, 2007 Statistical physics has proven to be a fruitful framework to describe phenomena outside the realm of traditional physics. Recent years have witnessed an attempt by physicists to study collective phenomena emerging from the interactions of individuals as ...

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.

The statistical physics of real-world networks [PDF]
Nature Reviews Physics, 2018 In the past 15 years, statistical physics has been successful as a framework for modelling complex networks. On the theoretical side, this approach has unveiled a variety of physical phenomena, such as the emergence of mixed distributions and ensemble ...

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 ...

Inverse statistical physics of protein sequences: a key issues review [PDF]
Reports on progress in physics. Physical Society, 2017 In the course of evolution, proteins undergo important changes in their amino acid sequences, while their three-dimensional folded structure and their biological function remain remarkably conserved.

Statistical Physics of Adaptation
Physical Review X, 2016 Whether by virtue of being prepared in a slowly relaxing, high-free energy initial condition, or because they are constantly dissipating energy absorbed from a strong external drive, many systems subject to thermal fluctuations are not expected to behave

Magnetisation reversal in Ising ferromagnet by thermal and field gradients
Heliyon, 2018 We report the results of the magnetisation reversal in Ising ferromagnet having thermal and field gradients by Monte Carlo simulation. We have studied the distribution of reversal times for different values of thermal and field gradients and compared the

Homotopy in statistical physics
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.
