A large class of evolutionary processes can be modeled by a rule which involves self-replication of some physical quantity with a non local rescaling. I show that a class of such models are exactly solvable -- in the discrete as well as…

Nonlinear response theory, in contrast to linear cases, involves (dynamical) details, and this makes application to many body systems challenging. From the microscopic starting point we obtain an exact response theory for a small number of…

Virial expansions are the series in powers of density assumed to be small. However, the equations of state require to consider finite densities for which virial expansions, as a rule, diverge. In order to extrapolate a virial expansion to…

In the classical world, temperature is a measure of how hot or cold a physical object is. We never find a physical system which can be both hot and cold at the same time. Here, we show that for a quantum system, it is possible to have…

Linearisation is often used as a first step in the analysis of nonlinear initial boundary value problems. The linearisation procedure frequently results in a confusing contradiction where the nonlinear problem conserves energy and has an…

Complicated physical problems usually are solved by resorting to perturbation theory leading to solutions in the form of asymptotic series in powers of small parameters. However, finite, and even large values of the parameters often are of…

Quantum theory allows for the superposition of causal orders between operations, i.e., for an indefinite causal order; an implication of the principle of quantum superposition. Since a higher theory might also admit this feature, an…
