Nucleation, commonly associated with discontinuous transformations between metastable and stable phases, is crucial in fields as diverse as atmospheric science and nanoscale electronics. Traditionally, it is considered a microscopic process…
In principle, the probability of configurations, determined by the system's partition function or wave function, encapsulates essential information about phases and phase transitions. Despite the exponentially large configuration space, we…

In this paper we study metastable behaviour at low temperature of Glauber spin-flip dynamics on random graphs. We fix a large number of vertices and randomly allocate edges according to the Configuration Model with a prescribed degree…
We consider the non-conserved dynamics of the Ising model on the two-dimensional square lattice, where each spin is influenced preferentially by its East and North neighbours. The single-spin flip rates are such that the stationary state is…
We suggest that coarsening dynamics can be described in terms of a generalized random walk, with the dynamics of the growing length $L(t)$ controlled by a drift term, $\mu(L)$, and a diffusive one, ${\cal D}(L)$. We apply this…
We prove that the scaling limits of spin fluctuations in four-dimensional Ising-type models with nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic interaction at or near the critical point are Gaussian. A similar statement is proven for the $\lambda \phi^4$…
The influence of nonequilibrium bulk conditions on the properties of the interfaces exhibited by a kinetic Ising--like model system with nonequilibrium steady states is studied. The system is maintained out of equilibrium by perturbing the…
If the structure of spacetime is discrete, then Lorentz symmetry should only be an approximation, valid at long length scales. At finite lattice spacings there will be small corrections to the Dirac evolution that could in principle be…
We provide a theoretical framework to analyze the properties of frontal collisions of two growing interfaces considering different short range interactions between them. Due to their roughness, the collision events spread in time and form…
We consider the quasi-deterministic behavior of systems with a large number, $n$, of deterministically interacting constituents. This work extends the results of a previous paper [J. Stat. Phys. 99:1225-1249 (2000)] to include vector-valued…
We study the evolution of critical fluctuations in an expanding system within a hadronic transport approach. The initialization of the system with critical fluctuations is achieved by coupling the ideal hadron resonance gas cumulants to the…
We consider a kinetic model of two species of particles interacting with a reservoir at fixed temperature, described by two coupled Vlasov-Fokker-Plank equations. We prove that in the diffusive limit the evolution is described by a…
We consider a two-dimensional Hamiltonian system perturbed by a small diffusion term, whose coefficient is state-dependent and non-degenerate. As a result, the process consists of the fast motion along the level curves and slow motion…
This paper deals with the stochastic Ising model with a temperature shrinking to zero as time goes to infinity. A generalization of the Glauber dynamics is considered, on the basis of the existence of simultaneous flips of some spins. Such…
We show that a collection of independent Ising spins evolving stochastically can display surprisingly large fluctuations towards ordered behaviour, as quantified by certain types of time-integrated plaquette observables, despite the…
We investigate properties of the diffusive motion of an interface in the two-dimensional Ising model in equilibrium or nonequilibrium situations. We focused on the relation between the power spectrum of a time sequence of spins and…
We study the effect of a one-dimensional driving field on the interface between two coexisting phases in a two dimensional model. This is done by considering an Ising model on a cylinder with Glauber dynamics in all sites and additional…
