A hybrid percolation transition (HPT) exhibits both discontinuity of the order parameter and critical behavior at the transition point. Such dynamic transitions can occur in two ways: by cluster pruning with suppression of loop formation of…

We introduce a multi-scale diagonalization scheme to study the transition between the many-body localized and the ergodic phase in disordered quantum chains. The scheme assumes a sharp dichotomy between subsystems that behave as localized…

Breakage is generally understood in mechanical terms, yet nano-structures can rupture not only under external loads but also via thermal activation. Here we treat in a general framework the statistical mechanics of thermally induced…

Diffusion models are powerful generative models that map noise to data using stochastic processes. However, for many applications such as image editing, the model input comes from a distribution that is not random noise. As such, diffusion…
