In this paper we show that the existence of a primarily discrete space-time may be a fruitful assumption from which we may develop a new approach of statistical thermodynamics in pre-relativistic conditions. The discreetness of space-time…

By using entropy and entropy production, we calculate the steady flux of some phenomena. The method we use is a competition method, $S_S/\tau+\sigma={\it maximum}$, where $S_S$ is system entropy, $\sigma$ is entropy production and $\tau$ is…

Entropic Dynamics is a framework in which dynamical laws such as those that arise in physics are derived as an application of entropic methods of inference. No underlying action principle is postulated. Instead, the dynamics is driven by…

We show that under local detailed balance the expected entropy production rate is always bounded in terms of the dynamical activity. The activity refers to the time-symmetric contribution in the action functional for path-space…

L\'{e}vy walk is a popular and more `physical' model to describe the phenomena of superdiffusion, because of its finite velocity. The movements of particles are under the influences of external potentials almost at anytime and anywhere. In…
