We study atypically large fluctuations of height $H$ in the 1+1-dimensional Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation at long times $t$, when starting from a "droplet" initial condition. We derive exact large deviation function of height for $\lambda H<0$, where $\lambda$ is the nonlinearity coefficient of the KPZ...
In hydrodynamic topological transitions, one mass of fluid breaks into two or two merge into one. For example, in the honey-drop formation when honey dripping from a spoon, honey is extended to separate into two as the liquid neck bridging them thins down to micron scales.
There are only a very few known relations in statistical dynamics that are valid for systems driven arbitrarily far-from-equilibrium. One of these is the fluctuation theorem, which places conditions on the entropy production probability distribution of nonequilibrium systems.
We present and analyze low-temperature series and complex-temperature partition function zeros for the $q$-state Potts model with $q=4$ on the honeycomb lattice and $q=3,4$ on the triangular lattice. A discussion is given as to how the locations of the singularities obtained from the series analysis correlate with the...
We develop an approach for performing scaling analysis of $N$-step Random Walks (RWs). The mean square end-to-end distance, $\langle\vec{R}_{N}^{2}\rangle$, is written in terms of inner persistence lengths (IPLs), which we define by the ensemble averages of dot products between the walker's position and displaceme...
The Langevin equation (LE) for the one-dimensional relativistic Brownian motion is derived from a microscopic collision model. The model assumes that a heavy point-like Brownian particle interacts with the lighter heat bath particles via elastic hard-core collisions.
We use classical molecular dynamics combined with the recently developed metadynamics method [A. Laio and M. Parrinello, Procs. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 99, 20 (2002)] to study the process of bulk melting in hexagonal ice. Our simulations show that bulk melting is mediated by the formation of topological defects which pre...
A simple model is proposed for the direct correlation function (DCF) for simple fluids consisting of a hard-core contribution, a simple parametrized core correction, and a mean-field tail. The model requires as input only the free energy of the homogeneous fluid, obtained, e.g., from thermodynamic perturbation theory....
Nonlinear waves emitted from a moving source are studied. A meandering spiral in a reaction-diffusion medium provides an example, where waves originate from a source exhibiting a back-and-forth movement in radial direction.
The Riemann surface for polylogarithms of half-integer index, which has the topology of an infinite dimensional hypercube, is studied in relation to one-dimensional KPZ universality in finite volume. Known exact results for fluctuations of the KPZ height with periodic boundaries are expressed in terms of meromorphic f...
Using the Markovian method, we study the stochastic nature of electrical discharge current fluctuations in the Helium plasma. Sinusoidal trends are extracted from the data set by the Fourier-Detrended Fluctuation analysis and consequently cleaned data is retrieved.
Starting from the quantum kinetic equation for the non-condensate atoms and the generalized Gross-Pitaevskii equation for the condensate, we derive the two-fluid hydrodynamic equations of a trapped Bose gas at finite temperatures. We follow the standard Chapman-Enskog procedure, starting from a solution of the kinetic...
The Mpemba effect is a counter-intuitive relaxation phenomenon, where a system prepared at a hot temperature cools down faster than an identical system initiated at a cold temperature when both are quenched to an even colder bath. Such non-monotonic relaxations were observed in various systems, including water, magnet...
Free cooling of granular materials is analyzed on the basis of a pseudo-Liouville operator. Exchange of translational and rotational energy requires surface roughness for spherical grains, but occurs for non-spherical grains, like needles, even if they are perfectly smooth.
At zero temperature, the 3-state antiferromagnetic Potts model on a square lattice maps exactly onto a point of the 6-vertex model whose long-distance behavior is equivalent to that of a free scalar boson. We point out that at nonzero temperature there are two distinct types of excitation: vortices, which are relevant...
Nanomagnetic materials, built from thin, patterned films of ferromagnetic materials, began as analogues to frustrated magnetism. Their low energy of operation and emergent properties make them strong candidates for physics based devices.
Magnetic properties, such as magnetizations, internal energy, specific heat, entropy, Helmholtz free energy and phase diagrams of the spin-3/2 Blume-Capel model on hexagonal Ising nanowire (HIN) with core-shell structure are studied by utilizing the effective-field theory (EFT) with correlations. Moreover, the hystere...
We reply the comment made by Caracciolo et al. (cond. mat./0305213) to our work "Dynamic behavior of anisotropic non-equilibrium driving lattice gases", cond-mat/021041.
According to Landauer's principle, erasing a memory requires an average work of at least $kT\ln2$ per bit. Recent experiments have confirmed this prediction for a one-bit memory represented by a symmetric double-well potential.
We give the exact critical frontier of the Potts model on bowtie lattices. For the case of $q=1$, the critical frontier yields the thresholds of bond percolation on these lattices, which are exactly consistent with the results given by Ziff et al [J. Phys. A 39, 15083 (2006)].
In this sequel (to [Phys. Rev. Res. 3, 023044(2021)], <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.10072" data-arxiv-id="2006.10072" class="link-https">arXiv:2006.10072</a>), we study randomly driven $(1+1)$ dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs), a family of quantum many-body systems with soluble non-equilibrium quantum d...
The Linear behavior of thermal transport has been widely explored, both theoretically and ex? perimentally.
Entropy production along a single stochastic trajectory of a biomolecule is discussed for two different sources of non-equilibrium. For a molecule manipulated mechanically by an AFM or an optical tweezer, entropy production (or annihilation) occurs in the molecular conformation proper or in the surrounding medium.
We examine the possibility of Bose-Einstein condensation in one-dimensional interacting Bose gas subjected to confining potentials of the form $V_{\rm ext}(x)=V_0(|x|/a)^\gamma$, in which $\gamma &lt; 2$, by solving the Gross-Pitaevskii equation within the semi-classical two-fluid model. The condensate fraction, chemi...
In non-centrosymmetric magnets the chiral Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya exchange stabilizes Skyrmion-strings as excitations which may condense into multiply modulated phases. Such extended Skyrmionic textures are determined by the stability of the localized &#34;solitonic&#34; Skyrmion cores and their geometrical incompatibil...
We demonstrate that a gas of classical particles trapped in an external asymmetric potential undergoes a quasiperiodic motion, if the temperature of its initial velocity distribution $T_{ne}$ differs from the equilibrium temperature, $T_{eq}$. The magnitude of the effect is determined by the value of $T_{ne}-T_{eq}$, ...
We present a theory of the dynamics of monatomic liquids built on two basic ideas: (1) The potential surface of the liquid contains three classes of intersecting nearly-harmonic valleys, one of which (the ``random&#39;&#39; class) vastly outnumbers the others and all whose members have the same depth and normal mode sp...
We study the phase diagram of spin-one polar condensates in a two dimensional optical lattice with magnetic anisotropy. We show that the topological binding of vorticity to nematic disclinations allows for a rich variety of phase transitions.
We report several results concerning $W(\Lambda,q)=\exp(S_0/k_B)$, the exponent of the ground state entropy of the Potts antiferromagnet on a lattice $\Lambda$. First, we improve our previous rigorous lower bound on $W(hc,q)$ for the honeycomb (hc) lattice and find that it is extremely accurate; it agrees to the first...
We study fractional Laplace motion (FLM) obtained from subordination of fractional Brownian motion to a gamma process, in the presence of an external drift that acts on the composite process or of an internal drift acting solely on the parental process. We derive the statistical properties of this FLM process and find...
We show that applying simple dynamical rules to Baxter&#39;s eight-vertex model leads to a system which resembles a glass-forming liquid. There are analogies with liquid, supercooled liquid, glassy and crystalline states.
Small-world networks provide an interesting framework for studying the interplay between regular and random graphs, where links are located in a regular and random way, respectively. On one hand, the random links make the model to obey some kind of mean-field behavior.
Magnetization reversal in magnetic nanostructures is investigated numerically over time-scales ranging from fast switching processes on a picosecond scale to thermally activated reversal on a microsecond time-scale. A simulation of the stochastic Landau-Lifshitz equation of motion is used as well as a time quantified ...
We present a quantitative assessment of the Toner and Tu theory describing the universal scaling of fluctuations in polar phases of dry active matter. Using large scale simulations of the Vicsek model in two and three dimensions, we find the overall phenomenology and generic algebraic scaling predicted by Toner and Tu...
I define and characterize the reweighted methods, which are techniques used in conjunction with the random series implementation of the Feynman-Kac formula. I prove several convergence results valid for all series representations and then I specialize the results for the Levy-Ciesielski and Wiener-Fourier series.
Brownian yet non-Gaussian phenomenon has recently been observed in many biological and active matter systems. The main idea of explaining this phenomenon is to introduce a random diffusivity for particles moving in inhomogeneous environment.
We investigate a variety of statistical properties associated with the number of distinct degrees that exist in a typical network for various classes of networks. For a single realization of a network with N nodes that is drawn from an ensemble in which the number of nodes of degree k has an algebraic tail, N_k ~ N/k^...
We present a numerical study of classical particles diffusing on a solid surface. The particles&#39; motion is modeled by an underdamped Langevin equation with ordinary thermal noise.
A non-equilibrium steady state can be characterized by a nonzero but stationary flux driven by a static external force. Under a weak external force, the drift velocity is difficult to detect because the drift motion is feeble and submerged in the intense thermal diffusion.
The theory of constructing instantaneous equilibrium (ieq) transition under arbitrary time-dependent temperature and potential variation for a Brownian particle is developed. It is shown that it is essential to consider the underdamped dynamics for temperature-changing transitions.
We present an exact solution describing equilibrium properties of the catalytically-activated A + A \to 0 reaction taking place on a one-dimensional lattice, where some of the sites possess special &#34;catalytic&#34; properties. The A particles undergo continuous exchanges with the vapor phase; two neighboring adsorb...
This paper describes a novel numerical approach to find the statistics of the non-stationary response of scalar non-linear systems excited by Lévy white noises. The proposed numerical procedure relies on the introduction of an integral transform of Wiener-Hopf type into the equation governing the characteristic functi...
Using the path integral approach to equilibrium statistical physics the effect of dissipation on Landau diamagnetism is calculated. The calculation clarifies the essential role of the boundary of the container in which the electrons move.
Numerical results are presented indicating d_c=4 as the upper critical dimension for the Bak-Sneppen evolution model. This finding agrees with previous theoretical arguments, but contradicts a recent Letter [Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 5746-5749 (1998)] that placed d_c as high as d=8.
We derive an extended fluctuation theorem for a geometric pumping in a spin-boson system under a periodic control of environmental temperatures by using a Markovian quantum master equation. We perform the Monte-Carlo simulation and obtain the current distribution, the average current and the fluctuation.
Recently, Sá, Ribeiro and Prosen introduced complex spacing ratios to analyze eigenvalue correlations in non-Hermitian systems. At present there are no analytical results for the probability distribution of these ratios in the limit of large system size.
Using Monte Carlo simulations, we determine the phase diagram of a diffusive two-temperature XY model. When the two temperatures are equal the system becomes the equilibrium XY model with the continuous Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) vortex-antivortex unbinding phase transition.
An integrable version of the supersymmetric t-J model which is quantum group invariant as well as periodic is introduced and analysed in detail. The model is solved through the algebraic nested Bethe ansatz method.
In recent years, several relatively similar empirical models of titanium dioxide have been proposed as reparameterisations of the potential of Matsui and Akaogi, with the Buckingham interaction replaced by a Lennard-Jones interaction. However, because of the steepness of the repulsive region of the Lennard-Jones poten...
We propose discrete TBA equations for models with discrete spectrum. We illustrate our construction on the Calogero-Moser model and determine the discrete 2-body TBA function which yields the exact N-body Calogero-Moser thermodynamics.
Small-world networks (SWN), obtained by randomly adding to a regular structure additional links (AL), are of current interest. In this article we explore (based on physical models) a new variant of SWN, in which the probability of realizing an AL depends on the chemical distance between the connected sites.
We investigate the impact of intermittent energy injections on a Brownian particle, modeled as stochastic renewals of its kinetic energy to a fixed value. Between renewals, the particle follows standard underdamped Langevin dynamics.
We analyze the fluctuation-driven escape of particles from a metastable state under the influence of a weak periodic force. We develop an asymptotic method to solve the appropriate Fokker-Planck equation with mixed natural and absorbing boundary conditions.
We briefly review central concepts concerning nonextensive statistical mechanics, based on the nonadditive entropy $S_q=k\frac{1-\sum_{i}p_i^q}{q-1} (q \in {\cal R}; S_1=-k\sum_{i}p_i \ln p_i)$. Among others, we focus on possible realizations of the $q$-generalized Central Limit Theorem, including at the edge of chaos...
We generalize the compact group approach to conducting systems to give a self-consistent analytical solution to the problem of the effective quasistatic electrical conductivity of macroscopically homogeneous and isotropic dispersions of hard-core--penetrable-shell particles. The shells are in general inhomogeneous and...
The existence and search for thermodynamic phase transitions is of unfading interest. In this paper, we present numerical evidence of dynamical phase transitions occurring in boundary driven systems with a constrained integrated current.
Brownian motion is a ubiquitous physical phenomenon across the sciences. After its discovery by Brown and intensive study since the first half of the 20th century, many different aspects of Brownian motion and stochastic processes in general have been addressed in Statistical Physics.
n this series of papers we substantially extend investigations of Israel and Kandrup on nonequilibrium statistical mechanics in the framework of special relativity. This is the first one devoted to the general mathematical structure.
We show that for a subdiffusive continuous time random walk with scale-free waiting time distribution the first-passage dynamics on a finite interval can be optimised by introduction of a piecewise linear potential barrier. Analytical results for the survival probability and first-passage density based on the fraction...
We study Bose-Hubbard models in a family of diamond necklace lattices with $n$ central sites. The single-particle spectrum of these models presents compact localized states (CLSs) that occupy the up and down sites of each diamond.
We study the electrical susceptibility of a hydrogen gas at equilibrium, partially ionized by thermal excitations. The gas is described as a quantum plasma of point protons and electrons, interacting via the Coulomb potential.
We present a deterministic algorithm called contact density dynamics that generates any prescribed target distribution in the physical phase space. Akin to the famous model of Nosé-Hoover, our algorithm is based on a non-Hamiltonian system in an extended phase space.
We develop a field-theoretical description of dynamical heterogeneities and fluctuations in supercooled liquids close to the (avoided) MCT singularity. Using quasi-equilibrium arguments we eliminate time from the description and we completely characterize fluctuations in the beta regime.
We study a cluster Ising model with non-Hermitian external field which can be exactly solved in the language of free fermions. By investigating the second derivative of energy density and fidelity, the possible new critical points are tentatively located.
We propose a generalization of classical statistical mechanics which describes the behavior of dissipative systems placed in contact with a heat bath. In contrast to conventional statistical mechanics, which assigns probabilities to the states of the system, the generalized theory assigns probabilities to the trajecto...
The notion of scale-invariant dynamics is well established at late times in quantum chaotic systems, as illustrated by the emergence of a ramp in the spectral form factor (SFF). Building on the results of the preceding Letter [Phys. Rev. Lett. 131, 060404 (2023)], we explore features of scale-invariant dynamics of sur...
Heat conduction phenomena are studied theoretically using computer simulation. The systems are crystal with nonlinear interaction, and fluid of hard-core particles.
We investigate the effect of quenched dilution on the critical and spinodal points in the infinite range (mean-field) and long-range (near-mean-field) Ising model. We find that unlike the short-range Ising model, the effect of the dilution is not simply related to the divergence of the specific heat, i.e., the Harris ...
In this paper we study the statistical properties of convex hulls of $N$ random points in a plane chosen according to a given distribution. The points may be chosen independently or they may be correlated.
A unifying theory of the denaturation transition of DNA, driven by temperature T or induced by an external mechanical torque Gamma is presented. Our model couples the hydrogen-bond opening and the untwisting of the helicoidal molecular structure.
In his famous letter in 1870, Maxwell describes how Joule&#39;s law can be violated &#34;only by the intelligent action of a mere guiding agent&#34;, later coined as Maxwell&#39;s demon by Lord Kelvin. In this letter we study thermodynamics of information using an experimentally feasible Maxwell&#39;s demon setup base...
We studied by means of computer simulations the low temperature properties of two-dimensional parahydrogen clusters comprising between 7 and 30 molecules. Computed energetics is in quantitative agreement with that reported in the only previous study [Phys. Rev. B 65, 174527 (2002)], but a generally stronger superfluid...
The Abelian Sandpile Model (ASM) is a paradigm of self-organized criticality (SOC) which is related to $c=-2$ conformal field theory. The conformal fields corresponding to some height clusters have been suggested before.
We investigate the quench dynamics of the transverse field Ising model on a finite fully connected lattice as a prime example of non-equilibrium mean field dynamics. Using a rate function approach we compute the leading order corrections to the mean field behavior analytically.
Thirty years after the Liu-Fisher paper on the {\bf bicritical} and {\bf tetracritical} points in quantum lattice gases, these multicritical points continue to appear in a variety of new physical contexts. This paper reviews some recent multicritical phase diagrams, which involve e.
In these notes, the application of Feynman&#39;s sum-over-paths approach to thermal phase transitions is discussed. The paradigm of such a spacetime approach to critical phenomena is provided by the high-temperature expansion of spin models.
We propose a systematic method to extract conformal loop models for rational conformal field theories (CFT). Method is based on defining an ADE model for boundary primary operators by using the fusion matrices of these operators as adjacency matrices.
We propose the model, which allows us to approximate fractional Levy noise and fractional Levy motion. Our model is based
We discuss the influence of boundary conditions on the continuum limit of the six-vertex model by deriving a variational principle for the associated height function with arbitrary fixed boundary conditions. We discuss its consequences using the known phase diagram of the six-vertex model.
Fractional diffusion equations for three-dimensional lattice models based on fractional-order differences of the Grunwald-Letnikov type are suggested. These lattice fractional diffusion equations contain difference operators that describe long-range jumps from one lattice site to other.
We present a non-traditional general methodology for the prediction of breakdown of engineering structures, based on a global top-down monitoring of the health of the structure modelled by the theory of critical rupture. The new Acceptance Test Plan integrating the resulting Predictive Acoustic Emission procedure has ...
In 1916 Einstein introduced the first rules for a quantum theory of electromagnetic radiation, and he applied them to a model of matter in thermal equilibrium with radiation to derive Planck&#39;s black-body formula. Einstein&#39;s treatment is extended here to time-dependent stochastic variables, which leads to a mas...
An improved unified formulation based on the effective field theory is introduced for a spin-1 Ising model with nearest neighbor interactions with arbitrary coordination number z. Present formulation is capable of calculating all the multi-spin correlations systematically in a representative manner, as well as its sin...
In these lectures, we shall present some remarkable results that have been obtained for systems far from equilibrium during the last two decades. We shall put a special emphasis on the concept of large deviation functions that provide us with a unified description of many physical situations.
We study the occurrence of a Bose-Einstein transition in a dilute gas with repulsive interactions, starting from temperatures above the transition temperature. The formalism, based on the use of Ursell operators, allows us to evaluate the one-particle density operator with more flexibility than in mean-field theories,...
We revisit the Kuramoto model to explore the finite-size scaling (FSS) of the order parameter and its dynamic fluctuations near the onset of the synchronization transition, paying particular attention to effects induced by the randomness of the intrinsic frequencies of oscillators. For a population of size $N$, we stu...
We discuss the {\it nonlinear stability} of phase-locked states for globally coupled nonlinear oscillators with finite inertia, namely the modified Kuramoto model, in the context of the robust $\ell^{\infty}$-norm. We show that some classes of phase-locked states are orbitally $\ell{\infty}$-stable in the sense that i...
The hysteresis behaviors of anisotropic S-1 Heisenberg model have been studied within the effective field theory with two spin cluster. After giving the phase diagrams, the effect of the crystal field and anisotropy in the exchange interaction on the hysteresis loops have been determined.
&#39;Causal&#39; direction is of great importance when dealing with complex systems. Often big volumes of data in the form of time series are available and it is important to develop methods that can inform about possible causal connections between the different observables.
We proceed from the premise that the spectrum of elementary excitations in the normal component in Landau&#39;s theory of superfluidity should depend on the superfluid helium temperature. This leads to generalization of the Landau superfluidity criterion.
We present numerical results obtained using a lattice-gas model with dynamical geometry defined by Hasslacher and Meyer (Int. J. Mod.
Statistical averaging theorems allow us to derive a set of equations for the averaged magnetization dynamics in the presence of colored (non-Markovian) noise. The non-Markovian character of the noise is described by a finite auto-correlation time, tau, that can be identified with the finite response time of the therma...
The phase diagrams of the spin-$3/2$ Blume-Capel model with competing short and long-range interactions were studied through the free energy density obtained by analytical methods. The competition emerges when positive short-range interactions of strength $K$ arranged in a linear chain tend to establish an anti-parall...
Long-lived quasistationary states, associated with stationary stable solutions of the Vlasov equation, are found in systems with long-range interactions. Studies of the relaxation time in a model of $N$ globally coupled particles moving on a ring, the Hamiltonian Mean Field model (HMF), have shown that it diverges as ...
After reviewing the main results obtained within a model for the intersection of two perpendicular flows of pedestrians, we present a new finding: the changeover of the jamming transition from continuous to first order when the size of the intersection area increases.
We study an integrable model of one-dimensional strongly correlated electrons at finite temperature by explicit calculation of the correlation lengths of various correlation functions. The model is invariant with respect to the quantum superalgebra U_q(sl(2|1)) and characterized by the Hubbard interaction, correlated ...
We investigate quantum scaling phenomena driven by lower-dimensional defects in quantum Ising-like models. We consider quantum Ising rings in the presence of a bond defect.
The statistics of chiral matrix ensembles with uncorrelated but multivariate Gaussian distributed elements is intuitively expected to be driven by many parameters. Contrary to intuition, however, our theoretical analysis reveals the existence of a single parameter, a function of all ensemble parameters, which governs ...
We present a combined experimental and theoretical study describing the dynamical regimes displayed by a paramagnetic colloidal particle externally driven above a stripe-patterned magnetic garnet film. A circularly polarized rotating magnetic field modulates the stray field of the garnet film and generates a translati...
We study the time evolution of a single qubit in contact with a bath, within the framework of projection operator methods. Employing the so-called modified Redfield theory which also treats energy conserving interactions non-perturbatively, we are able to study the regime beyond the scope of the ordinary approach.
