Irreversibility, despite being a necessary condition for thermalization, still lacks a sound understanding in the context of isolated quantum many-body systems. In this work we approach this question by studying the behavior of generic…
Time-irreversible stochastic processes are frequently used in natural sciences to explain non-equilibrium phenomena and to design efficient stochastic algorithms. Our main goal in this thesis is to analyse their dynamics by means of large…
We study zero temperature phase transitions in two classes of random quantum systems -the $q$-state quantum Potts and clock models. For models with purely ferromagnetic interactions in one dimension, we show that for strong randomness there…

Current research in statistical mechanics mostly concerns the investigation of out-of-equilibrium, irreversible processes, which are ubiquitous in nature and still far from being theoretically understood. Even the precise characterization…
It is shown that the irreversible behavior of classical systems of interacting particles is a common property for both few-body and many-body systems. It is due to the delay in the interactions between the particles. PACS: 45.50.Jf Few- and…

We investigate the collective behavior of an Ising lattice gas, driven to non-equilibrium steady states by being coupled to {\em two} thermal baths. Monte Carlo methods are applied to a two-dimensional system in which one of the baths is…
Critical behaviors of quark-hadron phase transition in high-energy heavy-ion collisions are investigated with the aim of identifying hadronic observables. The surface of the plasma cylinder is mapped onto a 2D lattice. The Ising model is…
Progress on nuclear liquid gas phase transition (LGPT) or critical behavior has been simply reviewed and some signals of LGPT in heavy ion collisions, especially in NIMROD data, are focused. These signals include the power-law charge…
A combinatorial approach is used to study the critical behavior of a $q$-state Potts model with a round-the-face interaction. Using this approach it is shown that the model exhibits a first order transition for $q>3$. A second order…
