We apply variational principles in the context of geometrothermodynamics. The thermodynamic phase space ${\cal T}$ and the space of equilibrium states ${\cal E}$ turn out to be described by Riemannian metrics which are invariant with…
The gradient-flow formalism is applied to a non-Abelian gauge theory with scalar and fermionic particles, dubbed "scalar QCD". It is shown that the flowed scalar quark requires a field renormalization, albeit only beyond the one-loop level.…
We use gauge/gravity duality to study the thermodynamics of a generic almost conformal theory, specified by its beta function. Three different phases are identified, a high temperature phase of massless partons, an intermediate…
We investigate the stability of topological charge under gradient flow taking the admissibility condition into account. For the $SU(2)$ Wilson gauge theory with $\beta=2.45$ and $L^4=12^4$, we numerically show that the gradient flows with…
We demonstrate that confinement in $SU(2)$ gauge theory is produced by dual superconductivity of the vacuum. We show that for $T < T_c$ (temperature of deconfining phase transition) the $U(1)$ symmetry related to monopole charge…
We present quantitative and qualitative arguments in favor of the claim that, within the present cosmological epoch, the U(1)$_Y$ factor in the Standard Model is an effective manifestation of SU(2) pure gauge dynamics of Yang-Mills scale…

We compute the QCD static force and potential using gradient flow at next-to-leading order in the strong coupling. The static force is the spatial derivative of the static potential: it encodes the QCD interaction at both short and long…
In infinite volume the gradient flow transformation can be interpreted as a continuous real-space Wilsonian renormalization group (RG) transformation. This approach allows one to determine the continuous RG $\beta$ function, an alternative…

It has become customary to use a smoothing algorithm called "gradient flow" to fix the lattice spacing in a simulation, through a parameter called $t_0$. It is shown that in order to keep the length $t_0$ fixed with respect to mesonic or…
We give a new approach to the well-known convergence to the hydrodynamic limit for the symmetric simple exclusion process (SSEP). More precisely, we characterize any possible limit of its empirical density measures as solutions to the heat…
We consider deconfined matter in SU(N) gauge theory as an ideal gas of transversely polarized quasi-particle modes having a temperature-dependent mass m(T). Just above the transition temperature, the mass is assumed to be determined by the…
Relying on the Luttinger-Ward theorem we derive a thermodynamically selfconsistent and scale independent approximation of the thermodynamic potential for the scalar $\phi^4$ theory in the tadpole approximation. The resulting thermodynamic…
We study $\theta$ dependence of the vacuum energy for the 4d SU(2) pure Yang-Mills theory by lattice numerical simulations. The response of topological excitations to the smearing procedure is investigated in detail, in order to extract…
We calculate on the lattice the interface tension in the SU(2) pure gauge theory in d=2+1 at high temperature. The result is compared to the perturbative prediction. The agreement confirms applicability of the perturbation theory in this…
Thermodynamics provides a useful interpretation of scalar-tensor gravity, in which the effective imperfect fluid admitted by the nonminimal coupling features a temperature that is associated with the departure from general relativity.…
We show that thermodynamic scaling can be derived by combining the Murnaghan equation of state (EOS) with the generalized entropy theory (GET) of glass formation. In our theory, thermodynamic scaling arises in the non-Arrhenius relaxation…
People are well aware that, inherently, certain small-scale nonchaotic particle movements are not governed by thermodynamics. Usually, such phenomena are studied by kinetic theory and their energy properties are considered "trivial". In…
We discuss the thermodynamics of a non-relativistic gas of bosons with a local repulsive interaction. In particular, we compute the temperature and density dependence of pressure, energy and entropy-density, superfluid and…
