To describe the nonequilibrium states of a system we introduce a new thermodynamic parameter - the lifetime of a system. The statistical distributions which can be obtained out of the mesoscopic description characterizing the behaviour of a…
Collisionless stellar systems are driven towards equilibrium by mixing of phase-space elements. I show that the excess-mass function D(f)= int_{F(x,v)>f} (F(x,v)-f) d^3x d^3v (with F(x,v) the coarse-grained distribution function) always…
We explain the ubiquity and extremely slow evolution of non gaussian out-of-equilibrium distributions for the Hamiltonian Mean-Field model, by means of traditional kinetic theory. Deriving the Fokker-Planck equation for a test particle, one…
We derive the representation of the nonequilibrium steady-state distribution function which is expressed in terms of the excess free energy production. This representation resembles the one derived recently by Komatsu and Nakagawa [Phys.…
The non-equilibrium steady states emerging from stochastic resetting to a distribution is studied. We show that for a range of processes, the steady-state moments can be expressed as a linear combination of the moments of the distribution…
This work presents the concept of kernel mean embedding and kernel probabilistic programming in the context of stochastic systems. We propose formulations to represent, compare, and propagate uncertainties for fairly general stochastic…
We argue that a number of recent experimental and numerical observations point to an ongoing cooperative stress-structure self-organisation (SO) in quasi-static granular dynamics. These observations include: a) detail-insensitive collapses…
The time irreversibility and fast relaxation of collapsing $N$-body gravitating systems (as opposed to the time reversibility of the equations of motion for individual stars or particles) are traditionally attributed to information loss due…
A simple random-neighbor SOC model that combines properties of the Bak-Sneppen and the relaxation oscillators (slip-stick) models is introduced. The analysis in terms of branching processes is transparent and gives insight about the…
We show that in a hierarchical clustering model the low-order statistics of the density and the peculiar velocity fields can all be modelled semianalytically for a given cosmology and an initial density perturbation power spectrum $P(k)$.…
In a statistical physics context, inverse problems consist in determining microscopic interactions such that a system reaches a predefined collective state. A complex collective state may be prescribed by specifying the overlap distribution…
Studies of disordered heterogeneous media and galaxy cosmology share a common goal: analyzing the distribution of particles at `microscales' to predict physical properties at `macroscales', whether for a liquid, composite material, or…
A recently introduced nonlinear Fokker-Planck equation, derived directly from a master equation, comes out as a very general tool to describe phenomenologically systems presenting complex behavior, like anomalous diffusion, in the presence…
In this contribution we show that a suitably defined nonequilibrium entropy of an N-body isolated system is not a constant of the motion in general and its variation is bounded, the bounds determined by the thermodynamic entropy, i.e., the…
We present a coarse-grained field theory of density fluctuations for a Newtonian self-gravitating many-body system and apply it to a homogeneous Universe with small density fluctuations. The theory treats the clustering of galaxies and…
We introduce the spatial disorder-generalized Langevin equation (SD-GLE), a data-driven method for constructing coarse-grained (CG) dynamics in heterogeneous systems. Unlike conventional CG approaches that rely on a mean-field potential,…
Optically confined colloidal particles, when placed in close proximity, form a dissipatively coupled system through hydrodynamic interactions. The role of such interactions influencing irreversibility and energy dissipation in…
The microcanonical partition function for self-gravitational system in three dimensional case has been found. Used approach from the field theory of statistical description of the system was tailored to gravitational interacting particles…
Coarse-grained phase distributions are introduced that approximate to the Susskind--Glogower cosine and sine phase distributions. The integral relations between the phase distributions and the phase-parametrized field-strength distributions…
We present a new framework for coarse-graining molecular dynamics models for crystalline solids. The reduction method is based on a Galerkin projection to a subspace, whose dimension is much smaller than that of the full atomistic model.…
