We study statistical properties of an NP-complete problem, the subset sum, using the methods and concepts of statistical mechanics. The problem is a generalization of the number partitioning problem, which is also an NP-complete problem and…

Heat can flow from cold to hot at any phase separation. Therefore Lynden-Bell's gravo-thermal catastrophe must be reconsidered. The original objects of Thermodynamics, the separation of phases at first order phase transitions, like boiling…
In Phys. Rev. Lett. 67, 937 (1991) [1], Haldane introduced the fruitful concept of fractional exclusion statistics (FES). One of the most influential papers in which the thermodynamics of FES systems was deduced is Y.-S. Wu, Phys. Rev.…
