Many self-gravitating systems often show scaling properties in their mass density, system size, velocities and so on. In order to clarify the origin of these scaling properties, we consider the stationary state of N-body system with inverse…

Thermodynamic and dynamical properties of systems with long-range pairwise interactions (LRI), which decay as $1/r^{d+\sigma}$ at large distances $r$ in $d$ dimensions, are reviewed. Two broad classes of such systems are discussed. (i)…

In self-gravitating $N$-body systems, small perturbations introduced at the start, or infinitesimal errors that are produced by the numerical integrator or are due to limited precision in the computer, grow exponentially with time. For…

At large scales of space and time, the nonequilibrium dynamics of local observables in extensive many-body systems is well described by hydrodynamics. At the Euler scale, one assumes that each mesoscopic region independently reaches a state…

Non-locality is a fundamental trait of quantum many-body systems, both at the level of pure states, as well as at the level of mixed states. Due to non-locality, mixed states of any two subsystems are correlated in a stronger way than what…

We consider a simple dissipative system with spatial structure in contact with a heat bath. The system always exhibits correlations except in the cases of zero and maximal dissipation. We explicitly calculate the correlation function and…

Quantum states in complex aggregates are unavoidably affected by environmental effects, which typically cannot be accurately modeled by simple Markovian processes. As system sizes scale up, nonperturbative simulation become thus unavoidable…
