The lower mantle of Earth, characterized by pressures of 24-127 GPa and temperatures of 1900-2600 K, is still inaccessible to direct observations. In this work, we investigate by first principles the stability, phase diagram, elastic…
The thermodynamic properties of vector (O(2) and Complex Spherical) models with four-body interactions are analyzed. When defined in dense topologies, these are effective models for the nonlinear interaction of scalar fields in the presence…
We prove the existence of chaos in temperature in the Sherringhton-Kirkpatrick model. The effect is exceedingly small, namely of the ninth order in perturbation theory. The equations describing two systems at different temperatures…

The spectral form factor of quantum chaotic systems has the familiar `ramp $+$ plateau' form. Techniques to determine its form in the semiclassical or the thermodynamic limit have been devised, in both cases based on the average over an…
We study numerically the three-dimensional $\phi^{4}$ spin glass, a prototypical disordered and discretized Euclidean field theory that manifests inhomogeneities in space and time but considers a homogeneous squared mass and lambda terms.…
We introduce a variant of the Banded Random Matrix ensemble and show, using detailed numerical analysis and theoretical arguments, that the phonon heat current in disordered quasi-one-dimensional lattices obeys a one-parameter scaling law.…

In atomic nuclei, ordered and chaotic states generally coexist. In this paper the transition from ordered to chaotic states will be discussed in the framework of roto-vibrational and shell models. In particular for $^{160}Gd$, in the…
The heat theorem (i.e. the second law of thermodynamics or the existence of entropy) is a manifestation of a general property of hamiltonian mechanics and of the ergodic Hypothesis. In nonequilibrium thermodynamics of stationary states the…
The route to chaos and phase dynamics in a rotating shallow-water model were rigorously examined using a five-mode Galerkin truncated system with complex variables. This system is valuable for investigating how large/meso-scales destabilize…
For a harmonic oscillator, Nos\'e's single-thermostat approach to simulating Gibbs' canonical ensemble with dynamics samples only a small fraction of the phase space. Nos\'e's approach has been improved in a series of three steps: [ 1 ]…
The understanding of the fundamental properties of the climate system has long benefitted from the use of simple numerical models able to parsimoniously represent the essential ingredients of its processes. Here we introduce a new model for…
Many-body chaos is a default property of many-body systems; at the same time, near-integrable behaviour due to weakly interacting quasiparticles is ubiquitous throughout condensed matter at low temperature. There must therefore be a,…
We study the thermodynamics of kinks in the Phi^6 model using a Langevin code implemented on a massively parallel computer. This code can be used to study first order dynamical phase transitions which exhibit multiple length and time…

Exactly solvable models that exhibit quantum signatures of classical chaos are both rare as well as important - more so in view of the fact that the mechanisms for ergodic behavior and thermalization in isolated quantum systems and its…
