We discuss the extension of the empirical equation: $\left\langle s_{N}^{2}\right\rangle_{0}\propto g\,l^{2}$, where the subscript 0 denotes the ideal value with no excluded volume and $g$ the generation number from the root to the youngest…
We carry out enhanced symmetry analysis of a two-dimensional Burgers system. The complete point symmetry group of this system is found using an enhanced version of the algebraic method. Lie reductions of the Burgers system are…
A simple result for the pressure of a hard sphere fluid that was developed many years ago by Rennert is extended in a straightforward manner by adding the terms that are of the same form as the Rennert's formula. The resulting expression is…
With a view toward a fracton theory in condensed matter, we introduce a higher-moment polynomial degree-p global symmetry, acting on complex scalar/vector/tensor fields (e.g., ordinary or vector global symmetry for p$=0$ and p$=1$…

In this work we introduce a category $LDP_d$ of discrete-time dynamical systems, that we call discrete Lagrange--D'Alembert--Poincar\'e systems, and study some of its elementary properties. Examples of objects of $LDP_d$ are nonholonomic…
