We study how confining the equilibrium hard-sphere fluid to restrictive one- and two-dimensional channels with smooth interacting walls modifies its structure, dynamics, and entropy using molecular dynamics and transition-matrix Monte Carlo…
In order to apply thermodynamics to systems in which entropy is not extensive, it has become customary to define generalized entropies. While this approach has been effective, it is not the only possible approach. We suggest that some…
We investigate here a generalized construction of spherical wavelets/needlets which admits extra-flexibility in the harmonic domain, i.e., it allows the corresponding support in multipole (frequency) space to vary in more general forms than…
After a brief historical survey, the paper introduces the notion of entropic model sets (cut and project sets), and, more generally, the notion of diffractive point sets with entropy. Such sets may be thought of as generalizations of…
We propose a new way to measure the balance between freedom and coherence in a dynamical system and a new measure of its internal variability. Based on the concept of entropy and ideas from neuroscience and information theory, we define…
We investigate the role of entropic concepts for the relaxation dynamics in granular systems. In these systems the existence of a geometrical frustration induces a drastic modification of the allowed phase space, which in its turn induces a…
A homeomorphism of a compact metric space is {\em tight} provided every non-degenerate compact connected (not necessarily invariant) subset carries positive entropy. It is shown that every $C^{1+\alpha}$ diffeomorphism of a closed surface…
The time variation of entropy, as an alternative to the variance, is proposed as a measure of the diffusion rate. It is shown that for linear and time-translationally invariant systems having a large-time limit for the density, at large…
For any $C^1$ diffeomorphism on a smooth compact Riemannian manifold that admits an ergodic measure with positive entropy, a lower bound of the Hausdorff dimension for the local stable and unstable sets is given in terms of the…
We discuss here the use of generalized forms of entropy, taken as information measures, to characterize phase transitions and critical behavior in thermodynamic systems. Our study is based on geometric considerations pertaining to the space…
In this work, with the help of fractional calculus, it is shown a time dependence of entropy more general than the well known Pesin relation is derived. Here the equiprobability postulate is not assumed, the system dynamic in the phase…
We explore entanglement entropy of a cap-like region for a generic quantum field theory residing in the Bunch-Davies vacuum on de Sitter space. Entanglement entropy in our setup is identical with the thermal entropy in the static patch of…
In this paper, we show that for several interesting systems beyond uniform hyperbolicity, any generic continuous function has a unique maximizing measure with zero entropy. In some cases, we also know that the maximizing measure has full…
In this article, I give a definition of topological entropy for random dynamical systems associated to an infinite countable discrete amenable group action. I obtain a variational principle between the topological entropy and measurable…
The motion of a spinning football brings forth the possible existence of a whole class of finite dynamical systems where there may be non-denumerably infinite number of fixed points. They defy the very traditional meaning of the fixed point…
We consider sufficient conditions to determine the global dynamics for equivariant maps of the plane with a unique fixed point which is also hyperbolic. When the map is equivariant under the action of a compact Lie group, it is possible to…
We compute universal finite corrections to entanglement entropy for generalised quantum Lifshitz models in arbitrary odd spacetime dimensions. These are generalised free field theories with Lifshitz scaling symmetry, where the dynamical…
This paper presents a survey of recent and not so recent results concerning the study of smooth homeomorphisms of the circle with a finite number of non-flat critical points, an important topic in the area of One-dimensional Dynamics. We…
The collective dynamics of interacting dynamical units on a network crucially depends on the properties of the network structure. Rather than considering large but finite graphs to capture the network, one often resorts to graph limits and…
Typically, an interactive system evolves towards thermal equilibrium, with hydrodynamics representing a universal framework for its late-time dynamics. Classification of the dynamical fixed points (DFPs) of a driven Quantum Field Theory…
