It is proposed a possible new approach of quantum measurements (QMS), disconnected of the traditional interpretation of uncertainty relations and independent of any appeal to the strange idea of collapse (reduction) of wave functions. The…

Using the superstatistics method, we propose an extension of the random matrix theory to cover systems with mixed regular-chaotic dynamics. Unlike most of the other works in this direction, the ensembles of the proposed approach are basis…

We examine the {combinatorial} or {probabilistic} definition ("Boltzmann's principle") of the entropy or cross-entropy function $H \propto \ln \mathbb{W}$ or $D \propto - \ln \mathbb{P}$, where $\mathbb{W}$ is the statistical weight and…

We show that macroscopic irreversible thermodynamics for viscous fluids can be derived from exact information-theoretic thermodynamic identities valid at the microscale. Entropy production, in particular, is a measure of the loss of…
