Maximum Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy vs minimum mixing time in Markov chainsMartin Mihelich, Berengere Dubrulle, Didier Paillard et al. · 2015 · Statistical Mechanics · AI summary available
Abstract
Many modern techniques employed in physics, such a computation of path integrals, rely on random walks on graphs that can be represented as Markov chains. Traditionally, estimates of running times of such sampling algorithms are computed using the number of steps in the chain needed to reach the stationary distribution. This quantity is generally defined as mixing time and is often difficult to compute. In this paper, we suggest an alternative estimate based on the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy, by establishing a link between the maximization of KSE and the minimization of the mixing time. Since KSE are easier to compute in general than mixing time, this link provides a new faster method to appro…

Dissipation in Hydrodynamics from Micro- to Macroscale: Wisdom from Boltzmann and Stochastic ThermodynamicsDanilo Forastiere, Francesco Avanzini, Massimiliano Esposito · 2023 · Statistical Mechanics · AI summary available
Abstract
We show that macroscopic irreversible thermodynamics for viscous fluids can be derived from exact information-theoretic thermodynamic identities valid at the microscale. Entropy production in particular is a measure of the loss of many-particle correlations in the same way in which it measures the loss of system-reservoirs correlations in stochastic thermodynamics (ST). More specifically, we first show that boundary conditions at the macroscopic level define a natural decomposition of the entropy production rate (EPR) in terms of thermodynamic forces multiplying their conjugated currents, as well as a change in suitable nonequilibrium potential that acts as a Lyapunov function in absence of …

Tsallis nonextensive statistical mechanics of El Nino Southern Oscillation IndexM. Ausloos, F. Petroni · 2006 · Physica A 373 (2007) 721 - 736 · AI summary available
Abstract
The shape and tails of partial distribution functions (PDF) for a climatological signal, i.e. the El Nino SOI and the turbulent nature of the ocean-atmosphere variability are linked through a model encompassing Tsallis nonextensive statistics and leading to evolution equations of the Langevin and Fokker-Planck type. A model originally proposed to describe the intermittent behavior of turbulent flows describes the behavior of the normalized variability for such a climatological index, for small and large time windows, both for small and large variability. This normalized variabil- ity distributions can be sufficiently well fitted with a chi-square-distribution. The transition between the smal…

Drift-Controlled Anomalous Diffusion: A Solvable Gaussian ModelFabrizio Lillo, Rosario N. Mantegna · 2000 · Statistical Mechanics · AI summary available
Abstract
We introduce a Langevin equation characterized by a time dependent drift. By assuming a temporal power-law dependence of the drift we show that a great variety of behavior is observed in the dynamics of the variance of the process. In particular diffusive, subdiffusive, superdiffusive and stretched exponentially diffusive processes are described by this model for specific values of the two control parameters. The model is also investigated in the presence of an external harmonic potential. We prove that the relaxation to the stationary solution is power-law in time with an exponent controlled by one of model parameters.

Continuously varying exponents in the distribution of waiting times in the symmetric exclusion process on a percolation clusterArpan Chatterjee, Kabir Ramola, Deepak Dhar · 2026 · Statistical Mechanics · Not summarized yet
Abstract
We study the waiting-time distribution of hard-core interacting particles in the symmetric exclusion process on one- and two-dimensional lattices with side branches attached to each lattice site in the steady state. We use numerical simulations together with an approximate analytical treatment of particles trapped in side branches in the steady state. Such a two-dimensional carpet serves as a simplified model for trapping of a supercritical percolation cluster. At high particle densities, the system exhibits strong dynamical heterogeneity, with the distribution of logarithms of waiting times developing well-separated peaks corresponding to particles trapped at different depths from the backb…

Large deviation full counting statistics in adiabatic open quantum dynamicsPaulo J. Paulino, Igor Lesanovsky, Federico Carollo · 2024 · Statistical Mechanics · AI summary available
Abstract
The state of an open quantum system undergoing an adiabatic process evolves by following the instantaneous stationary state of its time-dependent generator. This observation allows one to characterize, for a generic adiabatic evolution, the average dynamics of the open system. However, information about fluctuations of dynamical observables, such as the number of photons emitted or the time-integrated stochastic entropy production in single experimental runs, requires controlling the whole spectrum of the generator and not only the stationary state. Here, we show how such information can be obtained in adiabatic open quantum dynamics by exploiting tools from large deviation theory. We prove …

Diffusion and Relaxation Controlled by Tempered α-stable ProcessesAleksander Stanislavsky, Karina Weron, Aleksander Weron · 2011 · Phys. Rev. E 78, 051106 (2008) · AI summary available
Abstract
We derive general properties of anomalous diffusion and nonexponential relaxation from the theory of tempered \alpha-stable processes. Its most important application is to overcome the infinite-moment difficulty for the \alpha-stable random operational time \tau. The tempering results in the existence of all moments of \tau. The subordination by the inverse tempered \alpha-stable process provides diffusion(relaxation) that occupies an intermediate place between subdiffusion (Cole-Cole law) and normal diffusion (exponential law). Here we obtain explicitly the Fokker-Planck equation, the mean square displacement and the relaxation function. This model includes subdiffusion as a particular case…

Information Benchmark for Biological Sensors Beyond Steady States -- Mpemba-like sensory withdrawal effectAsawari Pagare, Zhiyue Lu · 2024 · Statistical Mechanics · AI summary available
Abstract
Biological sensors rely on the temporal dynamics of ligand concentration for signaling. The sensory performance is bounded by the distinguishability between the sensory state transition dynamics under different environmental protocols. This work presents a comprehensive theory to characterize arbitrary transient sensory dynamics of biological sensors. Here the sensory performance is quantified by the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence between the probability distributions of the sensor's stochastic paths. We introduce a novel benchmark to assess a sensor's transient sensory performance arbitrarily far from equilibrium. We identify a counter-intuitive phenomenon in multi-state sensors: while an…

How are these papers found?
We compare the title and abstract of this paper with those of every paper summarized on this site, and with the papers Semantic Scholar recommends, those it cites and those citing it (for a much-cited paper, its most recent citations and, from OpenAlex, the most cited ones). Among the prior work and the follow-ups, the papers that use each other in depth, a method it uses and the much-cited follow-ups come a little higher. The levels (very close, close, related) come from the similarity of the texts, not from a judgment of quality; * marks a paper without an abstract, compared by its title. The sentence under a paper is written by an AI from the two abstracts: check it in the papers. A paper marked not relevant by three readers leaves the list.
For now only among the papers summarized on this site: search again to add the prior work, the follow-ups and Semantic Scholar’s recommendations.
