We consider pairing in a three-component gas of degenerate fermions. In particular, we solve the finite temperature mean-field theory of an interacting gas for a system where both interaction strengths and fermion masses can be unequal. At…
Algorithms based on multiple decoding attempts of Reed-Solomon (RS) codes have recently attracted new attention. Choosing decoding candidates based on rate-distortion (R-D) theory, as proposed previously by the authors, currently provides…
We consider ensembles of channel codes that are partitioned into bins, and focus on analysis of exact random coding error exponents associated with optimum decoding of the index of the bin to which the transmitted codeword belongs. Two main…
We investigate through extensive molecular dynamics simulations the fragmentation process of two-dimensional Lennard-Jones systems. After thermalization, the fragmentation is initiated by a sudden increment to the radial component of the…
This paper studies expurgated random-coding bounds and exponents for channel coding with a given (possibly suboptimal) decoding rule. Variations of Gallager's analysis are presented, yielding several asymptotic and non-asymptotic bounds on…
We introduce a new framework term coding for extremal problems in discrete mathematics and information flow, where one chooses interpretations of function symbols so as to maximise the number of satisfying assignments of a finite system of…
The performance of an error correcting code is evaluated by its error probability, rate, and en/decoding complexity. The performance of a series of codes is evaluated by, as the block lengths approach infinity, whether their error…
We study fragmentation of small atomistic clusters via molecular dynamics. We calculate the time scales related to fragment formation and emission. We also show that some degree of thermalization is achieved during the expansion process,…
The quantum capacity of a memoryless channel is often used as a single figure of merit to characterize its ability to transmit quantum information coherently. The capacity determines the maximal rate at which we can code reliably over…
A new channel coding approach was proposed in [1] for random multiple access communication over the discrete-time memoryless channel. The coding approach allows users to choose their communication rates independently without sharing the…
The partition function of the random energy model at inverse temperature $\beta$ is a sum of random exponentials $Z_N(\beta)=\sum_{k=1}^N \exp(\beta \sqrt{n} X_k)$, where $X_1,X_2,...$ are independent real standard normal random variables…
Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) in which the signature code assignment to users contains a random element has recently become a cornerstone of CDMA research. The random element in the construction is particularly attractive in that it…
There is an ever-growing need for predictive models for the elasto-viscoplastic deformation of solids. Our goal in this paper is to incorporate recently developed out-of-equilibrium statistical concepts into a thermodynamically consistent,…
We suggest that if a localized phase at nonzero temperature $T>0$ exists for strongly disordered and weakly interacting electrons, as recently argued, it will also occur when both disorder and interactions are strong and $T$ is very high.…
We consider a refined version of the string-net model which assigns a different energy cost to each plaquette excitation. Using recent exact calculations of the energy-level degeneracies we compute the partition function of this model and…
The key problem of statistical physics standing over one hundred years is how to exactly calculate the partition function (or free energy) of many-body interaction systems, which severely hinders application of the theory for realistic…
For particles in an anharmonic potential, classical mechanics asserts that there is a renormalization of the bare frequency of the oscillatory motion, and statistical mechanics claims that the anharmonicity causes a correction to the heat…
