We report an example of a many-body system, derived from the double kicked top (DKT), with non-chaotic yet mean-ergodic dynamics that displays \textit{strong} eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) in the quantum regime. The analysis…
We introduce a physics-inspired continuous relaxation framework that yields substantially improved solutions for NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems, including Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO), binary sparse…
We exactly solve a model of a heterogeneous chain of overdamped, harmonically coupled particles with momentum-conserving dissipation. Despite being governed by a non-symmetric drift operator, the system admits an analytical diagonalization…
The Landauer principle bridges the energetic cost and information processing, showing that irreversible computation inevitably demands energy dissipation. As energy demands from computation continue to rise, approximate computing has…
Only a small fraction of the data generated in state-of-the-art all-atom multi-microsecond molecular dynamics (MD) simulations is typically analyzed. With femtosecond integration steps, microsecond simulations generate billions of time…
The wave turbulence framework has proven to be an effective tool for analyzing certain features of nonlinear energy transfer in one-dimensional nonlinear chains. In this work, we extend this approach to the $\alpha$-FPUT problem when the…
We introduce a model of water contemplating true supercooled-liquid states that, as such, are metastable with respect to the crystalline-solid ones. Its numerical solutions reproduce from Speedy-Angell's stability-limit picture to Poole et…
The continuous phase transition, indicated by the macroscopic order parameter and the occurrence of the spontaneous symmetry breaking, is well illustrated based on the Ginzburg-Landau's paradigm. In systems described by one order parameter,…
We show that, contrary to common belief, supersymmetry alone is not sufficient in Model A dynamics to ensure relaxation toward a stationary state satisfying time-reversal invariance (TRI). An additional condition on top of supersymmetry is…
Relaxation to equilibrium of a drifted Brownian motion is quantified by a probability density function, whose main (multiplicative) entry is an inferred Feynman-Kac kernel of the Schr\"{o}dinger semigroup operator. Although seemingly devoid…
We propose a test of conformal invariance in critical phenomena based on the study of a two-point correlation function in the presence of a boundary. This two-point function can be studied using X-ray or neutron scattering in the conditions…
We study the large deviations of the time-integrated current for a self-propelled particle moving within a confined environment. The dynamics is modeled as a semi-Markovian process, where the transitions between a \textit{normal running…
We perform a Monte Carlo analysis of the Ising model on many three-dimensional lattices. By means of finite-size scaling we obtain the critical points and determine the scaling dimensions. As expected, the critical exponents agree with the…
We consider the self-assembly of cross junctions in a general space dimension ($d$) as an extension of the problem studied in a previous paper for $d = 3$. This problem is equivalent to constructing a $d$-dimensional hypercubic jungle gym,…
We present a novel Exchange Monte Carlo (EMC) method designed for application in continuous-space Path Integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulations at finite temperature. Traditional PIMC methods for bosonic systems suffer from long…
We study boundary criticality at the Nishimori multicritical point of the two-dimensional (2D) random-bond Ising model. Using tensor-network methods, we construct a family of microscopic boundary conditions that incorporates both…
We use stellar dynamics as a testbed for statistical closure theory. We focus on the process of "Vector Resonant Relaxation," a long-range, non-linear, and correlated relaxation mechanism that drives the reorientation of stellar orbital…
We introduce a novel exclusion process with a simple local kinetic constraint that leads to a remarkable transition between a homogeneous phase with short-range correlations and a clustered phase with long-range correlations and spontaneous…
Universality, encompassing critical exponents, scaling functions, and dimensionless quantities, is fundamental to phase transition theory. In finite systems, universal behaviors are also expected to emerge at the pseudocritical point.…
We study the Brownian dynamics and linear response of a particle with inertia moving in a 2-dimensional helical landscape imprinted on a cylindrical surface. In the harmonic well approximation, the deterministic motion separates into free…
