First passage phenomena arise across physics, biology, and finance when stochastic processes first reach a threshold, triggering downstream events. Examples include the irreversible exit from a domain, a biochemical reaction, a financial…
In this work, quantum Stirling engines based on monolayer, AB-stacked bilayer, and ABC-stacked trilayer graphene under perpendicular magnetic fields are analyzed. Performance maps of the useful work \((\eta W)\) reveal a robust optimum at…
We study the Tracy-Widom (TW) distribution $f_\beta(a)$ in the limit of large Dyson index $\beta \to +\infty$. This distribution describes the fluctuations of the rescaled largest eigenvalue $a_1$ of the Gaussian (alias Hermite) ensemble…
We study a size-structured population model in which individual cells grow at a rate determined by a fluctuating internal variable (e.g., gene expression levels). Many previous models of phenotypically heterogeneous populations can be…
We study the one-dimensional Fermi gas subject to dissipative reactions. The dynamics is governed by the quantum master equation, where the Hamiltonian describes coherent motion of the particles, while dissipation accounts for irreversible…
We analyze the properties of Neel and Bloch domain walls as a function of film thickness h, for systems where, in addition to exchange, the dipole-dipole interaction must be included. The Neel to Bloch phase transition is found to be a…
We present exact results for steady-state density correlation functions in conserved-mass transport processes with {\it anisotropic}, reflection-symmetric hopping on a $d-$dimensional hypercubic lattice. In addition to mass conservation, we…
Transport in disordered environments is often controlled not by typical fluctuations but by rare, extreme events that dominate long-time dynamics. In such settings, Zwanzig's classic mean-field theory predicts that energetic roughness…
We derive generic properties of nonequilibrium phase transitions in all-to-all Ising models placed in contact with two thermal reservoirs, in which parameters (temperatures, interactions and field parameters) assume arbitrary values…
Surface growth driven by non-monomeric deposition has remained largely unexplored. We investigate a model based on the deposition of blobs with a power-law size distribution $P(s)\sim s^{-\tau}$. We find that the critical exponents vary…
We study a one-dimensional exclusion process with a fixed jump length $I \ge 1$ in which a particle may advance or retreat $I$ sites provided all intermediate sites are vacant, with hopping rates of Arrhenius type depending on the local…
Discovering governing equations, whether manually or by data-driven methods, has been central in physics and related areas. Since governing equations are typically constrained by a set of symmetries, using symmetry constraints to restrict…
In networks that grow by isotropic redirection (IR), a new node selects an initial target node uniformly at random and attaches to a randomly chosen neighbor of the target. The emerging networks exhibit leaf proliferation, in which the…
The topological gap $\Delta = TP_{H_1}^{real} - TP_{H_1}^{shuf}$ -- the excess $H_1$ total persistence of the majority-spin alpha complex over a density-matched null -- encodes critical correlations in spin models. We establish finite-size…
We reveal a correspondence between temperature and integrability-breaking in classical and quantum many-body systems through the lens of geometry and adiabatic transformations. Decreasing the temperature, obtained in a standard way through…
The two-dimensional $O(N)$ nonlinear sigma model (NLSM) is asymptotically free for $N>2$: it exhibits neither a nontrivial fixed point nor spontaneous symmetry-breaking. Here we show that a nontrivial fixed point generically does exist in…
We investigate the effects of thermal fluctuations in graphene bilayers by means of a nonperturbative renormalization group (NPRG) approach, following the pioneering work of Mauri et al. [Phys. Rev. B 102, 165421 (2020)] based on a…
We present a general analytical framework for quasi-static quantum Stirling engines operating across ground-state level crossings (GLC). In the low-temperature regime, we derive the Primarch Formula, an exact universal expression linking…
In a vast class of systems, which includes members as diverse as sedimenting particles and bird flocks, interactions do not stem from a potential, and are in general nonreciprocal. Thus, it is not possible to define a conventional energy…
We develop a general theory for computing the Renyi entropy with general multiple disjoint intervals from the swapping operations. Our theory is proposed based on the fact that we have observed the resemblance between the replica trick in…
