One of the oldest problems in physics is that of calculating the motion of $N$ particles under a specified mutual force: the $N$-body problem. Much is known about this problem if the specified force is non-relativistic gravity, and…

The relaxation to equilibrium of lattice systems with long-range interactions is investigated. The timescales involved depend polynomially on the system size, potentially leading to diverging equilibration times. A kinetic equation for…
Many-body systems relaxing to equilibrium can exhibit complex dynamics even if their steady state is trivial. At low temperatures or high densities their evolution is often dominated by steric hindrances affecting particle motion [1,2,3].…
We suggest a new method of calculation of the equilibrium correlation functions of an arbitrary order for the interacting Fermi-gas model in the frame of the static fluctuation approximation (SFA) method. This method based only on the…
We describe the astrophysical and numerical basis of N-body simulations, both of collisional stellar systems (dense star clusters and galactic centres) and collisionless stellar dynamics (galaxies and large-scale structure). We explain and…

We derive an equation for the glass relaxation. In the derivation, the Zwanzig-Mori projection method is not applied explicitly, which makes our equation different from the mode coupling theory. Due to the nonlinearity, it is difficult to…
Most studies on the problem of equilibration of the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou (FPUT) system have focused on equipartition of energy being attained amongst the normal modes of the corresponding harmonic system. In the present work, we instead…
