Liquids relax extremely slowly upon approaching the glass state. One explanation is that an entropy crisis, due to the rarefaction of available states, makes it increasingly arduous to reach equilibrium in that regime. Validating this…
Liquids near the glass transition exhibit dynamical heterogeneity, i.e. correlated regions in the liquid relax at either a much faster rate or a much slower rate than the average. This collective phenomenon has been characterized by…
We calculate the entanglement entropy between two (maximally-extended) spacetime regions of static black hole, seperated by horizon. As a first case, we consider the Schwarzschild black hole, and then we extend the calculations to the…
The goal of this chapter is to review recent analytical results about the growth of a (static) correlation length in glassy systems, and the connection that can be made between this length scale and the equilibrium correlation time of its…
Free fermions with a finite Fermi surface are known to exhibit an anomalously large entanglement entropy. The leading contribution to the entanglement entropy of a region of linear size $L$ in $d$ spatial dimensions is $S\sim L^{d-1}…
We compute the entanglement entropy and the entanglement spectrum of the vacuum state in the massive Schwinger model at a finite $\theta$ angle. The $\theta$ term is implemented through a chirally rotated lattice Hamiltonian that preserves…
We report results of molecular-dynamics simulations of a model polymer melt consisting of short non-entangled chains in the supercooled state above the critical temperature of mode-coupling theory (MCT). To analyse the dynamics of the…
We study an oriented first passage percolation model for the evolution of a river delta. This model is exactly solvable and occurs as the low temperature limit of the beta random walk in random environment. We analyze the asymptotics of an…
We consider the symmetry resolution of relative entropies in the 1+1 dimensional free massless compact boson conformal field theory (CFT) which presents an internal $U(1)$ symmetry. We calculate various symmetry resolved R\'enyi relative…
The cyclic Lotka-Volterra model in a $D$-dimensional regular lattice is considered. Its ``nucleus growth'' mode is analyzed under the scope of Tsallis' entropies $S_q=(1-\sum_i p_i^q)/(q-1)$, $q\in \mathbb{R}$. It is shown both numerically…
We show how entanglement entropies allow for the estimation of quasi-long-range order in one dimensional systems whose low-energy physics is well captured by the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid universality class. First, we check our procedure in…
We investigate the scaling of the R\'{e}nyi entanglement entropies for a particle bipartition of interacting spinless fermions in one spatial dimension. In the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid regime, we calculate the second R\'{e}nyi entanglement…
According to the droplet picture of spin glasses, the low-temperature phase of spin glasses should be replica symmetric. However, analysis of the stability of this state suggested that it was unstable and this instability lends support to…
We present a theory to describe the dynamics of the Sherrington- Kirkpatrick spin-glass with (sequential) Glauber dynamics in terms of deterministic flow equations for macroscopic parameters. Two transparent assumptions allow us to close…
Plaquette models are short range ferromagnetic spin models that play a key role in the dynamic facilitation approach to the liquid glass transition. In this paper we study the dynamics of the square plaquette model at the smallest of the…
We analyze the ways in which the random first order phase transition (RFOT) of the glass transition differs from the well-studied regular first order and second order (or continuous) phase transitions. Just as is the case in the latter two…
A high-order quadrature scheme is constructed for the evaluation of Laplace single and double layer potentials and their normal derivatives on smooth surfaces in three dimensions. The construction begins with a harmonic approximation of the…

The log-periodic equation for the entropy $S = - (k/a) \sum_{i=1}^{N} p_{i} \sin(a \ln p_{i})$, based on the forgotten Sharma-Taneja entropy measure, is studied for the first time with $N$ the total number of system states and $p_{i}$ the…
The renormalized one-loop theory is a coarse-grained theory of corrections to the self-consistent field theory (SCFT) of polymer liquids, and to the random phase approximation (RPA) theory of composition fluctuations. We present predictions…
