We present a double distribution function of dark matter halos, with respect to both object mass and local over- (or under-) density. This analytical tool provides a statistical treatment of the properties of matter surrounding collapsed…

We derive analytic merger rates for dark-matter haloes within the framework of the Extended Press-Schechter (EPS) formalism. These rates become self-consistent within EPS once we realize that the typical merger in the limit of a small…

Aims. We aim to study the stochastic evolution of the smoothed overdensity $\delta$ at scale $S$ of the form $\delta(S) = \int_{0}^S K(S,u)\mathrm{d}W(u)$, where $K$ is a kernel and $\mathrm{d}W$ is the usual Wiener process. Methods. For a…

In prior work, we have shown how the basic concepts and terms of quantum mechanics relate to factorizations and marginals of complex-valued quantum mass functions, which are generalizations of joint probability mass functions. In this…

We first show that the currently accepted statistical mechanics for granular matter is flawed. The reason is that it is based on the volume function, which depends only on a minute fraction of all the structural degrees of freedom and is…
