We present a new method of conducting molecular dynamics simulation in isothermal-isobaric ensemble based on Langevin equations of motion. The stochastic coupling to all particle and cell degrees of freedoms is introduced in a correct way, in the sense that the stationary configurational distribution is proved to be i... |
We apply the transfer-matrix DMRG (TMRG) to a stochastic model, the Domany-Kinzel cellular automaton, which exhibits a non-equilibrium phase transition in the directed percolation universality class. Estimates for the stochastic time evolution, phase boundaries and critical exponents can be obtained with high precisio... |
Single-file diffusion refers to the motion in narrow channels of particles which cannot bypass each other. These strong correlations between particles lead to tracer subdiffusion, which has been observed in contexts as varied as transport in porous media, zeolites or confined colloidal suspensions, and theoretically s... |
We analyze the reactions $A+A \to \emptyset$ and $A + B \to \emptyset$ occurring in a model of turbulent flow in two dimensions. We find the reactant concentrations at long times, using a field-theoretic renormalization group analysis. |
Time-dependent protocols that perform irreversible logical operations, such as memory erasure, cost work and produce heat, placing bounds on the efficiency of computers. Here we use a prototypical computer model of a physical memory to show that it is possible to learn feedback-control protocols to do fast memory eras... |
We analyze the effect of spin degree of freedom on fidelity decay and entropy production of a many-particle fermionic(bosonic) system in a mean-field, quenched by a random two-body interaction preserving many-particle spin $S$. The system Hamiltonian is represented by embedded Gaussian orthogonal ensemble (EGOE) of ra... |
The isotropic rigid and non-rigid rotators in the framework of Tsallis statistics are studied in the high and low temperature limits. The generalized partition functions, internal energies and heat capacities are calculated. |
The previous attempts of reconstructing the Gell-Mann-Low function \beta(g) of the \phi^4 theory by summing perturbation series give the asymptotic behavior \beta(g) = \beta_\infty g^\alpha in the limit g\to \infty, where \alpha \approx 1 for the space dimensions d = 2,3,4. It can be hypothesized that the asymptotic b... |
An important question in biology is how the relative size of different organs is kept nearly constant during growth of an animal. This property, called proportionate growth, has received increased attention in recent years. |
The exclusive queueing process (EQP) has recently been introduced as a model for the dynamics of queues which takes into account the spatial structure of the queue. It can be interpreted as a totally asymmetric exclusion process of varying length. |
Using the replica method, we develop an analytical approach to compute the characteristic function for the probability $\mathcal{P}_N(K,\lambda)$ that a large $N \times N$ adjacency matrix of sparse random graphs has $K$ eigenvalues below a threshold $\lambda$. The method allows to determine, in principle, all moments... |
To study the kinetics of phase separation in active matter systems, we consider models that impose a Vicsek-type self-propulsion rule on otherwise passive particles interacting via the Lennard-Jones potential. Two types of kinetics are of interest: one conserves the total momentum of all the constituents and the other... |
Relying on the quantum tunneling concept and the Maxwell-Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics, Gamow shows that the star burning process happens at temperatures comparable to a critical value, called the Gamow temperature ($\texttt{T}$) and less than the prediction of the classical framework. In order to highlight the role of t... |
An interacting electron liquid in two (2D) and three (3D) dimensions may undergo a paramagnetic-to-ferromagnetic quantum spin polarization transition at zero applied magnetic field, driven entirely by exchange interactions, as the system density ($n$) is decreased. This is known as Bloch ferromagnetism. |
Both classical and respectively quantum observables can be modeled as somewhat similar examples of random variables. In such a model the associated measurements preserve the values spectrum of an observable but change the corresponding probabilistic weights (probability density or respectively the wave function). |
The polymerization of actin filaments is coupled to the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which involves both the cleavage of ATP and the release of inorganic phosphate. We describe hydrolysis by a reduced two-state model with a cooperative cleavage mechanism, where the cleavage rate depends on the state of ... |
We study symmetric simple exclusion processes (SSEP) on a ring in the presence of uniformly moving multiple defects or disorders - a generalization of the model proposed earlier [Phys. Rev. E 89, 022138 (2014)]. The defects move with uniform velocity and change the particle hopping rates locally. |
We investigate the correspondence between a non-equilibrium ensemble defined via the distribution of phase-space paths of a Hamiltonian system, and a system driven into a steady-state by non-equilibrium boundary conditions. To discover whether the non-equilibrium path ensemble adequately describes the physics of a dri... |
We introduce a highly structured family of hard satisfiable 3-SAT formulas corresponding to an ordered spin-glass model from statistical physics. This model has provably "glassy" behavior; that is, it has many local optima with large energy barriers between them, so that local search algorithms get stuck and h... |
We study, in the ensemble of constant particle number, processes in which a cluster of particles is annihilated and particles are created catalytically in active sites. In this ensemble, particles belonging to a cluster of $\ell$ particles jump to $\ell$ distinct active sites. |
We reveal the nature of the avalanche collapse of the giant viable component in multiplex networks under perturbations such as random damage. Specifically, we identify latent critical clusters associated with the avalanches of random damage. |
We formulate a renormalization group (RG) for the interaction parameters of the general two-body problem and show how a limit cycle emerges in the RG flow if the interaction approaches an inverse square law. This limit cycle generates a scaling structure in the energy spectrum. |
We study the phase diagram of the ferromagnetic $q$-state Potts model on the various three-dimensional lattices for integer and non-integer values of $q>1$. Our approach is based on a thermodynamically self-consistent Ornstein-Zernike approximation for the two-point correlation functions. |
We investigate the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of the one-dimensional quantum Ising model after a sudden quench of the transverse magnetic field. While for a translationally invariant system the statistical description of the asymptotic order parameter correlations after the quench can be performed in terms of the gen... |
Thermodynamic depth is an appealing but flawed structural complexity measure. It depends on a set of macroscopic states for a system, but neither its original introduction by Lloyd and Pagels nor any follow-up work has considered how to select these states. |
The recently discovered supersymmetric generalizations of Langevin dynamics and Kramers equation can be utilized for the exploration of free energy landscapes of systems whose large time-scale separation hampers the usefulness of standard molecular dynamics techniques. The first realistic application is here presented... |
Maximization of the entropy rate is an important issue to design diffusion processes aiming at a well-mixed state. We demonstrate that it is possible to construct maximal-entropy random walks with only local information on the graph structure. |
A microscopic statistical model of a quantum solid is developed, where inside a crystalline lattice there can exist regions of disorder, such as dislocation networks or grain boundaries. The cores of these regions of disorder are allowed for exhibiting fluid-like properties. |
Magnetoelectric effect of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg-Ising ladder in a presence of the external electric and magnetic fields is rigorously examined by taking into account Katsura-Nagaosa-Balatsky mechanism. It is shown that the applied electric field may control a quantum phase transition between the Néel (stripy) ordere... |
We recount recent history behind building compact models of nonlinear, complex processes and identifying their relevant macroscopic patterns or "macrostates". We give a synopsis of computational mechanics, predictive rate-distortion theory, and the role of information measures in monitoring model complexity an... |
For the purpose of clarifying a new approach to understanding quantum entanglement using thermofield dynamics (TFD), entanglement entropies of non-equilibrium finite-spin systems are examined for both traditional and extended cases. The extended entanglement entropy, $\hat{S}$, is derived, and it is found that the con... |

Using the Schwinger-Keldysh non-equilibrium Green's function formalism, we provide an analytical expression for the cumulant generating function corresponding t... |
We study the universal far from equilibrium dynamics of magnons in Heisenberg ferromagnets. We show that such systems exhibit universal scaling in momentum and time of the quasiparticle distribution function, with the universal exponents distinct from those recently observed in Bose-Einstein condensates. |
A kinetic theory for a dilute gas-solid suspension under a simple shear is developed. With the aid of the corresponding Boltzmann equation, it is found that the flow curve (stress-strain rate relation) has a S-shape as a crossover from the Newtonian to the Bagnoldian for a granular suspension or from the Newtonian to ... |
Percolation theory is usually applied to lattices with a uniform probability p that a site is occupied or that a bond is closed. The more general case, where p is a function of the position x, has received less attention. |
We propose a data-driven framework for identifying coarse-grained (CG) Lennard-Jones (LJ) potential parameters in confined systems for simple liquids. Our approach involves the use of a Deep Neural Network (DNN) that is trained to approximate the solution of the Inverse Liquid State (ILST) problem for confined systems... |
We present an exact solution to the asymptotic Bethe equation of weakly anisotropic Heisenberg spin chain, which is a set of non-linear algebraic equations. The solution describes the low-energy excitations above ferromagnetic ground state with fixed magnetisation, and it has a close relation to generalised Jacobi pol... |

We have measured the momentum distribution of an elongated BEC (aspect ratio of 152), for temperatures below the critical temperature. The corresponding coherence length is significantly smaller than the condensate length in a wide range of temperature, in quantitative agreement with theoretical predictions. |
We study the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition of two-component Bose mixtures in two spatial dimensions. When phases of both components are decoupled, half-quantized vortex-antivortex pairs of each component induce two-step BKT transitions. |
We investigate the dynamics of an intruder pulled by a constant force in a dense two-dimensional granular fluid by means of event-driven molecular dynamics simulations. In a first step, we show how a propagating momentum front develops and compactifies the system when reflected by the boundaries. |
We consider variational (density functional) models of fluids confined in parallel-plate geometries (with walls situated in the planes z=0 and z=L respectively) and focus on the structure of the pair correlation function G(r_1,r_2). We show that for local variational models there exist two non-trivial identities relat... |
We study the low-temperature domain growth kinetics of the two-dimensional Ising model with long-range coupling: $J(r) \sim r^{-(d+\sigma)}$, where $d=2$ is the dimensionality. According to the Bray-Rutenberg predictions, the exponent $\sigma$ controls the algebraic growth in time of the characteristic domain size $L(... |
Statistical thermodynamics delivers the probability distribution of the equilibrium state of matter through the constrained maximization of a special functional, entropy. Its elegance and enormous success have led to numerous attempts to decipher its language and make it available to problems outside physics, but a fo... |
Inspired by asynchronous cooperative Parrondo's games we introduce two new types of games in which all players simultaneously play game A or game B or a combination of these two games. These two types of games differ in the way a combination of games A and B is played. |
From single vehicle data a number of new empirical results concerning the density-dependence of the velocity distribution and its moments as well as the characteristics of their temporal fluctuations have been determined. These are utilized for the specification of some fundamental relations of traffic flow and compar... |
It has recently been shown that the Jarzynski equality gets modified, when there are experimental errors in computing work. This modified result also holds good in presence of feedback. |
In the framework of Gibbs statistical theory, the issue of the distribution of particle sizes forming the statistical system and the moments of this distribution are considered. This task is relevant for a wide variety of applications. |
We study the spectral form factor (SFF) for hydrodynamic systems with a sound pole, a large class including any fluid with momentum conservation and energy conservation, or any extended system with spontaneously broken continuous symmetry. We study such systems in a finite volume cavity and find that the logarithm of ... |
We examine a class of one-dimensional lattice-gases characterised by a gradient condition which guarantees the existence of Gibbs-type homogeneous stationary states. We show how, defining appropriate boundary conditions, this leads to a special symmetry of the system under time and space reversal which, rephrased in t... |
Why are most empirical networks, with the prominent exception of social ones, generically degree-degree anticorrelated, i.e. disassortative? With a view to answering this long-standing question, we define a general class of degree-degree correlated networks and obtain the associated Shannon entropy as a function of pa... |
We provide an expression quantitatively describing the specific heat of the Ising model on the simple-cubic lattice in the critical region. This expression is based on finite-size scaling of numerical results obtained by means of a Monte Carlo method. |
We consider an experimentally relevant model of a geometric ratchet in which particles undergo drift and diffusive motion in a two-dimensional periodic array of obstacles, and which is used for the continuous separation of particles subject to different forces. The macroscopic drift velocity and diffusion tensor are c... |
Boltzmannian statistical mechanics partitions the phase space of a system into macro-regions, and the largest of these is identified with equilibrium. What justifies this identification? |
We examine the asymmetric simple exclusion process with open boundaries, a paradigm of driven diffusive systems, having a nonequilibrium steady state transition. We provide a full derivation and expanded discussion and digression on results previously reported briefly in M. Depken and R. Stinchcombe, Phys. |
According to quantum mechanics chiral molecules, that is molecules that rotate the polarization of light, should not exist. The simplest molecules which can be chiral have four or more atoms with two arrangements of minimal potential energy that are equivalent up to a parity operation. |
We consider a general stochastic branching process, which is relevant to earthquakes as well as to many other systems, and we study the distributions of the total number of offsprings (direct and indirect aftershocks in seismicity) and of the total number of generations before extinction. We apply our results to a bra... |

Small spin systems at the interface between analytical studies and experimental application have been intensively studied in recent decades. The spin ring consisting of four spins with uniform antiferromagnetic Heisenberg interaction is an example of a completely integrable system, in the double sense: quantum mechani... |
Based on the original idea of the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG), i.e. to include the missing boundary conditions between adjacent blocks of the blocked quantum system, we present a rigorous and nonperturbative mathematical formulation for the real-space renormalization group (RG) idea invented by L.P. Kad... |
We obtain, using extensive Monte Carlo simulations, virial expansion and a high-density perturbation expansion about the fully packed monodispersed phase, the phase diagram of a system of bidispersed hard rods on a square lattice. We show numerically that when the length of the longer rods is $7$, two continuous trans... |
We reconsider model II of [J. Chem. Phys. 1968, 49, 1778--1783], a two-dimensional lattice-gas system featuring a crystalline phase and two distinct fluid phases (liquid and vapor). In this system, a particle prevents other particles from occupying sites up to third neighbors on the square lattice, while attracting (w... |

In the former system, with the replacement of K+ cation with Na+ cation, the excess heat capacity is almost invar... |
Quasicondensation in one dimension is known to occur for equilibrium systems of hard-core bosons (HCBs) at zero temperature. This phenomenon arises due to the off-diagonal long-range order in the ground state, characterized by a power-law decay of the one-particle density matrix $g_1(x,y)\sim |x-y|^{-1/2}$, a well-kno... |

We present an experimental study of segregation of granular matter in a quasi-two dimensional silo emptying out of an orifice. Size separation is observed when multi-sized particles are used with the larger particles found in the center of the silo in the region of fastest flow. |
We discuss a new approach to data clustering. We find that maximum likelyhood leads naturally to an Hamiltonian of Potts variables which depends on the correlation matrix and whose low temperature behavior describes the correlation structure of the data. |
It is known that maximal entropy random walks and partition functions that count long paths on graphs tend to become localized near nodes with a high degree. Here, we revisit the simplest toy model of such a localization: a regular tree of degree $p$ with one special node ("root") that has a degree different f... |
The effectiveness of collective navigation of biological or artificial agents requires to accommodate for contrasting requirements, such as staying in a group while avoiding close encounters and at the same time limiting the energy expenditure for manoeuvring. Here, we address this problem by considering a system of a... |
Determinants are useful to represent the state of an interacting system of (effectively) repulsive and independent elements, like fermions in a quantum system and training samples in a learning problem.

The totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) is a stochastic model for the unidirectional dynamics of interacting particles on a $1$D-lattice that is much used in systems biology and statistical physics. Its master equation describes the evolution of the probability distribution on the state space. |
We find the exact Casimir force between a plate and a cylinder, a geometry intermediate between parallel plates, where the force is known exactly, and the plate--sphere, where it is known at large separations. The force has an unexpectedly weak decay \sim L/(H^3 \ln(H/R)) at large plate--cylinder separations H (L and R... |
