We introduce the mathematical theory of the particle systems that interact via permutations, where the transition rates are assigned not to the jumps from a site to a site, but to the permutations themselves. This permutation processes can…
Mathematical ideas and approaches common in complexity-related fields have been fruitfully applied in experimental high energy physics also. We briefly review some of the cross-pollination that is occurring.
The staged increase of the LHC beam energy provides a new class of interesting observables, namely ratios and double ratios of cross sections of various hard processes. The large degree of correlation of theoretical systematics in the cross…
