We consider a random sequential adsorption process on the one-dimensional lattice with nearest-neighbor exclusion. In this model, each site $s \in \mathbb{Z}$ starts empty and we will try to occupy it in time $t_s$, where…

Using Matrix theory, we propose a technique on how to compute the entangle- ment entropy between a supergravity probe and modes on a spherical membrane. We demonstrate that a membrane stretched between the probe and the sphere entangles…

Density matrix embedding theory (DMET) provides a framework to describe ground-state expectation values in strongly correlated systems, but its extension to dynamical quantities is still an open problem. We show one route to obtaining…

We derive an algorithm to determine recursively the lap number (minimal number of monotone pieces) of the iterates of unimodal maps of an interval with free end-points. The algorithm is obtained by the sign analysis of the itineraries of…

In a recent Letter [1] a framework for estimating entropy was introduced and applied to one-dimensional and two-dimensional systems. In this Comment we show that the method is not well suited for estimating entropy in bidimensional systems…

Stirring a two-dimensional viscous fluid with rods is often an effective way to mix. The topological features of periodic rod motions give a lower bound on the topological entropy of the induced flow map, since material lines must `catch'…

We establish that for q>=1, the class of convex combinations of q translates of a smooth probability density has local doubling dimension proportional to q. The key difficulty in the proof is to control the local geometric structure of…

Inferring models, predicting the future, and estimating the entropy rate of discrete-time, discrete-event processes is well-worn ground. However, a much broader class of discrete-event processes operates in continuous-time. Here, we provide…

Neural networks have dramatically increased our capacity to learn from large, high-dimensional datasets across innumerable disciplines. However, their decisions are not easily interpretable, their computational costs are high, and building…

We study matchings on sparse random graphs by means of the cavity method. We first show how the method reproduces several known results about maximum and perfect matchings in regular and Erdos-Renyi random graphs. Our main new result is the…

The entanglement entropy of a subsystem of a quantum system is expressed, in the replica approach, through analytic continuation with respect to n of the trace of the n-th power of the reduced density matrix. This trace can be thought of as…
