The Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation describes the evolution of the probability density of the position and velocity of particles under the influence of external confinement, interaction, friction, and stochastic force. It is well-known that…

We show that the Hilbert space spanned by a continuously parametrized wavefunction family---i.e., a quantum state manifold---is dominated by a subspace, onto which all member states have close to unity projection weight. Its characteristic…

We consider the geometric numerical integration of Hamiltonian systems subject to both equality and "hard" inequality constraints. As in the standard geometric integration setting, we target long-term structure preservation. We…

We compute statistical equilibrium states of rotating self-gravitating systems enclosed within a box by maximizing the Fermi-Dirac entropy at fixed mass, energy and angular momentum. We increase the rotation up to the Keplerian limit and…

The influence of a curved spacetime $M$ on the physical behavior of an ideal gas of $N$ particles is analyzed by considering the phase space of the system as a region of the cotangent bundle $T^{*}M^{N}$ and using Souriau's Lie group…

We discuss structure-preserving numerical discretizations for repulsive and attractive Euler-Poisson equations that find applications in fluid-plasma and self-gravitation modeling. The scheme is fully discrete and structure preserving in…

A model in statistical mechanics, characterised by the corresponding Gibbs measure, is a subset of the totality of probability distributions on the phase space. The shape of this subset, i.e., the geometry, then plays an important role in…

A novel geometric formalism for statistical estimation is applied here to the canonical distribution of classical statistical mechanics. In this scheme thermodynamic states, or equivalently, statistical mechanical states, can be…

The equilibrium value of an observable defines a manifold in the phase space of an ergodic and equipartitioned many-body system. A typical trajectory pierces that manifold infinitely often as time goes to infinity. We use these piercings to…

We show that the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz equations for one-dimensional integrable many-body systems can be reinterpreted in such a way that they only code the statistical interactions, in the sense of Haldane, between particles of…
