The earliest molecular dynamics simulations relied on solving the Newtonian or equivalently the Hamiltonian equations of motion for a system. While pedagogically very important as the total energy is preserved in these simulations, they…

A stochastic modification of Conway's cellular automaton "Life" is introduced here. Any cell could be perturbed spontaneously to the opposite (dead or alive) state at any iteration with a very low probability. This probability is assumed to…

Stochastic thermodynamics provides a framework for describing small systems like colloids or biomolecules driven out of equilibrium but still in contact with a heat bath. Both, a first-law like energy balance involving exchanged heat and…
