In this article, we continue the structural study of factor maps betweeen symbolic dynamical systems and the relative thermodynamic formalism. Here, one is studying a factor map from a shift of finite type $X$ (equipped with a potential…
The goal of the present paper is to derive some conditions on saturation of (strong) subadditivity inequality for the stochastic matrices. The notion of relative entropy of stochastic matrices is introduced by mimicking quantum relative…
Our recent interest is focused on establishing the necessary and sufficient conditions that guarantee a long-term stable evolution of both natural and artificial systems. Two necessary conditions, called global and local boundedness, are…
There are several known constructions of equilibrium states for H\"older continuous potentials in the context of both subshifts of finite type and uniformly hyperbolic systems. In this article we present another method of building such…
In a context of non-uniformly expanding maps, possibly with the presence of a critical set, we prove the existence of finitely many ergodic equilibrium states for hyperbolic potentials. Moreover, the equilibrium states are expanding…
In this note we give simple examples of a one-dimensional mixing subshift with positive topological entropy which have two distinct measures of maximal entropy. We also give examples of subshifts which have two mutually singular equilibrium…
We investigate the equilibration of an isolated macroscopic quantum system in the sense that deviations from a steady state become unmeasurably small for the overwhelming majority of times within any sufficiently large time interval. The…
We obtain an explicit analytical sufficient condition on $E$ that ensures the monotonicity of the matrix $M+E$, where $M$ is an $M$-matrix.
We study one-dimensional lattice systems with pair-wise interactions of infinite range. We show projective convergence of Markov measures to the unique equilibrium state. For this purpose we impose a slightly stronger condition than…
Realistic equations of state valid in the whole state space of a multi-component mixture should satisfy at least three important constraints: (i) The Gibbs phase rule holds. (ii) At low densities, one can deduce a virial equation of state…
We develop a geometric method to establish existence and uniqueness of equilibrium states associated to some H\"older potentials for center isometries (as are regular elements of Anosov actions), in particular the entropy maximizing measure…
We present explicit examples to show that the `compatibility criterion' is capable of providing a {\em necessary} and {\em sufficient} condition for any regular configuration to be compatible with the state of hydrostatic equilibrium. This…
We comment on the recent paper by Abul-Magd (J.Phys.A: Math.Gen. 29 (1996) 1) concerning the energy level statistics in the mixed regime, i.e. such having the mixed classical dynamics where regular and chaotic regions coexist in the phase…
In this work we prove sufficient conditions for the Glauber dynamics corresponding to a sequence of (non-product) measures on finite product spaces to be rapidly mixing, i.e. that the mixing time with respect to the total variation distance…
In a recent paper (quant-ph/0102133) Chen, Liang, Li and Huang suggest a necessary and sufficient separability criterion, which is supposedly practical in judging the separability of any mixed state. In this note we briefly recapitulate…
We establish the existence of a spectral gap for the transfer operator induced on $\mathbb P^k = \mathbb P^k (\mathbb C)$ by a generic holomorphic endomorphism and a suitable continuous weight and its perturbations on various functional…
Recently, sufficient conditions of stability or instability for time-delay systems have been proven to be necessary. In this way, a remarkable necessary and sufficient condition has then been developed by Gomez et al. It is presented as a…
This work is an enquiry into the circumstances under which entropy methods can give an answer to the questions of both quantum separability and classical correlations of a composite state. Several entropy functionals are employed to examine…
We provide deterministic controllability conditions that imply exponential mixing properties for randomly forced constrained dynamical systems with possibly unbounded state space. As an application, new ergodicity results are obtained for…
The thermodynamic equilibrium conditions for compact structures composed by mass varying particles are discussed assuming that the so-called dynamical mass behaves like an additional extensive thermodynamic degree of freedom. It then…
