There is an incompatibility between the symmetries of causal structure in relativity theory and the signaling abilities of probabilistic devices with inputs and outputs: while time-reversal in relativity will not introduce the ability to…
We investigate the dependence of Poincar\'e recurrence-times statistics on the choice of recurrence-set, by sampling the dynamics of two- and four-dimensional Hamiltonian maps. We derive a method that allows us to visualize the direct…
The explicit integrability of second order ordinary differential equations invariant under time-translation and rescaling is investigated. Quadratic systems generated from the linearisable version of this class of equations are analysed to…
Here we define and study the properties of retrodictive inference. We derive equations relating retrodiction entropy and thermodynamic entropy, and as a special case, show that under equilibrium conditions, the two are identical. We…
Analyzing the dynamics of open quantum systems has a long history in mathematics and physics. Depending on the system at hand, basic physical phenomena that one would like to explain are, for example, convergence to equilibrium, the…
In the last quarter of the nineteenth century, Ludwig Boltzmann explained how irreversible macroscopic laws, in particular the second law of thermodynamics, originate in the time-reversible laws of microscopic physics. Boltzmann's analysis,…
The metaphor of a clock in physics describes near-equilibrium reversible phenomena such as an oscillating spring. It is surprising that for chemical and biological clocks the focus has been exclusively on the far-from-equilibrium…
We construct different equivalent non-equilibrium statistical ensembles in a simple yet instructive $N$-degrees of freedom model of atmospheric turbulence, introduced by Lorenz in 1996. The vector field can be decomposed into an…
The Boltzmann-Loschmidt dispute of 1876 questioned the possibility of a statistical irreversible description by time reversible classical equations of motion of atoms. Here we show analytically and numerically that the quantum chaos…
Universal properties of the statistics of stochastic efficiency for mesoscopic time-reversal symmetry broken energy transducers are revealed in the Gaussian approximation. We also discuss how the second law of thermodynamics restricts the…
An algebraic telic problem is a decision problem in $\textsf{NP}_\mathbb{R}$ formalizing finite-time reachability questions for one-dimensional dynamical systems. We prove that the existence of "natural" mapping reductions between algebraic…
Visibility algorithms are a family of methods to map time series into networks, with the aim of describing the structure of time series and their underlying dynamical properties in graph-theoretical terms. Here we explore some properties of…
Given a dynamical system, we study the so-called space of shift functions thus introducing another vision on bifurcations and chaos. As an application of the obtained results, we give a partial solution to an open problem formulated in…
In this article, we analyze three classes of time-reversal of a Markov process with Gaussian noise on a manifold. We first unveil a commutativity constraint for the most general of these time-reversals to be well defined. Then we give a…
It is proved in the paper that the non-conservative dissipative force and asymmetry of time reversal can be naturally introduced into classical statistical mechanics after retarded electromagnetic interaction between charged microparticles…
Pairwise comparison matrices have received substantial attention in a variety of applications, especially in rank aggregation, the task of flattening items into a one-dimensional (and thus transitive) ranking. However, non-transitive…
The fluctuation relations, which characterize irreversible processes in Nature, are among the most important results in non-equilibrium physics. In short, these relations say that it is exponentially unlikely for us to observe a…
We investigate the second time scale of the metastable behavior of the reversible inclusion process in an extension of the study by [Bianchi, Dommers, and Giardin\`a, Electronic Journal of Probability, 22: 1-34, 2017], which presented the…
Channels $\mathcal{N}$ that describe open quantum dynamics are inherently irreversible: it is impossible to undo their effect completely, but one can study partial recovery of the information. The Petz recovery map…
We consider the dynamics of a droplet on a vibrating fluid bath. This hydrodynamic quantum analog system is shown to elicit the canonical behavior of damped-driven systems, including a period doubling route to chaos. By approximating the…
