In non-equilibrium statistical physics models, the invariant measure $\mu$ of the process does not have an explicit density. In particular the adjoint $L^*$ in $L^2(\mu)$ of the generator $L$ is unknown and many classical techniques fail in…

Ergodicity, the central tenet of statistical mechanics, requires that an isolated system will explore all of its available phase space permitted by energetic and symmetry constraints. Mechanisms for violating ergodicity are of great…

The Fractional Langevin Equation (FLE) describes a non-Markovian Generalized Brownian Motion with long time persistence (superdiffusion), or anti-persistence (subdiffusion) of both velocity-velocity correlations, and position increments. It…

Quantum many-body systems can exhibit distinct regimes where dynamics is either ergodic, dynamically exploring an extensive region of available state-space, or non-ergodic, where the dynamics may be restricted. An example is the many-body…
