Despite their deterministic nature, dynamical systems often exhibit seemingly random behaviour. Consequently, a dynamical system is usually represented by a probabilistic model of which the unknown parameters must be estimated using…
We present a general method to derive the metastable behavior of weakly mixing Markov chains. This approach is based on properties of the resolvent equations and can be applied to metastable dynamics which do not satisfy the mixing…
Driven-dissipative many-body systems are difficult to analyze analytically due to their non-equilibrium dynamics, dissipation and many-body interactions. In this paper, we consider a driven-dissipative infinite-range Ising model with local…

We compute the probability of finding metastable states at a given field in the mean-field random field Ising model at T=0. Remarkably, this probability is finite in the thermodynamic limit, even on the so-called ``unstable'' branch of the…
We consider a general class of disordered mean-field models where both the spin variables and disorder variables take finitely many values. To investigate the size-dependence in the phase-transition regime we construct the metastate…

Quanta emitted by an open quantum system carry information about intrinsic parameters, enabling their estimation via continuous monitoring. In practice, however, only a fraction of the emitted quanta is detected, reducing the achievable…
Quantum experiments are observed as probability density functions. We often encounter multi-peaked densities which we model in this paper by a metastable dynamical system. The dynamics can be regarded in a thought experiment where a mouse…
Random metastability occurs when an externally forced or noisy system possesses more than one state of apparent equilibrium. This work investigates a class of random dynamical systems, arising from perturbing a one-dimensional piecewise…
