We show that one can employ well-established numerical continuation methods to efficiently calculate the phase diagram for thermodynamic systems. In particular, this involves the determination of lines of phase coexistence related to first…
We apply the Wigner function formalism from quantum optics via two approaches, Wootters' discrete Wigner function and the generalized Wigner function, to detect quantum phase transitions in critical spin-$\tfrac{1}{2}$ systems. We develop a…
Two-phase design can reduce the cost of epidemiological studies by limiting the ascertainment of expensive covariates or/and exposures to an efficiently selected subset (phase-II) of a larger (phase-I) study. Efficient analysis of the…
We treat the problem of characterizing in a systematic way the qualitative features of two-dimensional dynamical systems. To that end, we construct a representation of the topological features of phase portraits by means of diagrams that…
Exponential random graph models are an important tool in the statistical analysis of data. However, Bayesian parameter estimation for these models is extremely challenging, since evaluation of the posterior distribution typically involves…
In a physical system, changing parameters such as temperature can induce a phase transition: an abrupt change from one state of matter to another. Analogous phenomena have recently been observed in large language models. Typically, the task…
We consider the motion of an underdamped Brownian particle in a tilted periodic potential in a wide temperature range. Based on the previous data [1] and the new simulation results we show that the underdamped motion of particles in…
We have investigated the phase transition of the gas-liquid type, with an upper critical point, in a variant of the One Component Plasma model (OCP) that has a uniform but compressible compensating background. We have calculated the…
We study the problem of detecting a planted star in the Erd{\H{o}}s--R{\'e}nyi random graph $G(n,m)$, formulated as a hypothesis test. We determine the scaling window for critical detection in $m$ in terms of the star size, and characterize…
Considered a pair of random lifetimes whose dependence is described by a Time Transformed Exponential model, we provide analytical expressions for the distribution of their sum. These expressions are obtained by using a representation of…
The Van der Waals equation (VdW-EoS) is a prototype equation of state for realistic systems, because it contains the excluded volume and the particle interactions. Additionally, the simulated annealing (and the similar simulated…
We derive rates of convergence for limit theorems that reveal the intricate structure of the phase transitions in a mean-field version of the Blume-Emery-Griffith model. The theorems consist of scaling limits for the total spin. The model…
We perform simulations of random Ising models defined over small-world networks and we check the validity and the level of approximation of a recently proposed effective field theory. Simulations confirm a rich scenario with the presence of…
A single-sort continuum Curie-Weiss system of interacting particles is studied. The particles are placed in the space $\mathbb{R}^d$ divided into congruent cubic cells. For a region $V\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ consisting of $N\in \mathbb{N}$…
Subcritical transition of an inhomogeneous plasma where turbulences with different characteristic space-time scales coexist is analyzed with methods of statistical physics of turbulences. We derived the development equations of the…
Although it is well-known that some exponential family random graph model (ERGM) families exhibit phase transitions (in which small parameter changes lead to qualitative changes in graph structure), the behavior of other models is still…
We study a system of simple random walks on graphs, known as frog model. This model can be described as follows: There are active and sleeping particles living on some graph G. Each active particle performs a simple random walk with…
We critically analyze the possibility of finding signatures of a phase transition by looking exclusively at static quantities of statistical systems, like e.g., the topology of potential energy sub-manifolds (PES). This topological…
We apply the new generation of theoretical models of low-mass stars to secondaries in CVs, focussing on systems above the period gap. The models confirm that the spectral type should be a good indicator of the donor mass. The orbital…
Spin-crossover has a wide range of applications from memory devices to sensors. This has to do mainly with the nature of the transition, which may be abrupt, gradual or incomplete and may also present hysteresis. This transition alters the…
