We give the first example of a transitive quadratic map whose real and complex geometric pressure functions have a high-order phase transition. In fact, near the phase transition these functions behave as $x \mapsto \exp (- 1 / x^2)$ near…

The first order phase transition proceeds via nucleation and growth of true vacuum bubbles. When charged particles collide with the bubble they could radiate electromagnetic wave. We show that, due to an energy loss of the particles by the…

First order phase transitions are ubiquitous in nature, however, this notion is ambiguous and highly debated in the case of quantum systems out of thermal equilibrium. We construct a paradigmatic example which allows for elucidating the key…
