We propose a generalisation of Gibbs' statistical mechanics into the domain of non-negligible phase space correlations. Derived are the probability distribution and entropy as a generalised ensemble average, replacing…

We prove that the Poisson boundary of a random walk with finite entropy on a non-elementary hyperbolic group can be identified with its hyperbolic boundary, without assuming any moment condition on the measure. We also extend our method to…

Given a finitely generated group, the well-known Stability Problem asks whether the non-triviality of the Poisson-Furstenberg boundary (which is equivalent to the existence of non-constant bounded harmonic functions) depends on the choice…

Plausibility measures are structures for reasoning in the face of uncertainty that generalize probabilities, unifying them with weaker structures like possibility measures and comparative probability relations. So far, the theory of…

In this paper, generalized metrics mean metrics taking values in general linearly ordered Abelian groups. Using the Hahn fields, we first prove that for every generalized metric space, if the set of the Archimedean equivalence classes of…

We construct a family of probability measures on the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a closed symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$. We show that these measures are Borel measures with respect to the topology induced by the Hofer metric.…

The present study introduces the notions of statistical convergence of order $\alpha$ and strong $p-$ Ces\`{a}ro summability of order $\alpha$ in partial metric spaces. Also, we examine the inclusion relations between these concepts. In…

We find uniform lower bounds on the drift for a large family of random walks on graph products, of the form $ \mathbb{P} (|Z_{n}| \leq \kappa n) \leq e ^{-\kappa n} $ for $ \kappa > 0 $. This includes the simple random walk for a…

We propose a new model for a measurement of a characteristic of a microscopic quantum state by a large system that selects stochastically the different eigenstates with appropriate quantum weights. Unlike previous works which formulate a…

We examine the minimization of information entropy for measures on the phase space of bounded domains, subject to constraints that are averages of grand canonical distributions. We describe the set of all such constraints and show that it…
