Diffusion through semipermeable structures arises in a wide range of processes in the physical and life sciences. Examples at the microscopic level range from artificial membranes for reverse osmosis to lipid bilayers regulating molecular…

We introduce R\'enyi entropy of a subsystem energy as a natural quantity which closely mimics the behavior of the entanglement entropy and can be defined for all the quantum many body systems. For this purpose, consider a quantum chain in…

The non-crossing approximation (NCA) is generalized for the Anderson model with finite Coulomb repulsion U. Resummation of infinite number of terms is performed so as to incorporate all leading contributions in the limit of large degeneracy…

In this paper we define Brownian local time as the almost sure limit of the local times of a nested sequence of simple, symmetric random walks. The limit is jointly continuous in $(t,x)$. The rate of convergence is $n^{\frac14} (\log…

We conjecture a universal upper bound to the entropy of a rotating system. The entropy bound follows from application of the generalized second law of thermodynamics to an idealized gedanken experiment in which an entropy-bearing rotating…

The escape rate of a Brownian particle over a potential barrier is accurately described by the Kramers theory. A quantitative theory explicitly taking the activity of Brownian particles into account has been lacking due to the inherently…

According to the entropy bound, the entropy of a complete physical system can be universally bounded in terms of its circumscribing radius and total gravitating energy. Page's three recent candidates for counterexamples to the bound are…

We consider random walks in i.i.d. elliptic random environments which are not uniformly elliptic. We introduce a computable condition in dimension $d=2$ and a general condition valid for dimensions $d\ge 2$ expressed in terms of the exit…

Let $B_s$ be a three dimensional Brownian motion and $\omega(dx)$ be an independent Poisson field on $\mathbb{R}^3$. It is proved that for any $t>0$, conditionally on $\omega(\cdot)$, \label{*} \mathbb{E}_0 \exp\{\theta \int_0^t…

Motivated by a theorem of Barbour, we revisit some of the classical limit theorems in probability from the viewpoint of the Stein method. We setup the framework to bound Wasserstein distances between some distributions on infinite…

We give a probabilistic representation of a one-dimensional diffusion equation where the solution is discontinuous at $0$ with a jump proportional to its flux. This kind of interface condition is usually seen as a semi-permeable barrier.…

We apply the global thermodynamic variables approach to experimentally determine the isothermal compressibility parameter $\kappa_T$ of a trapped Bose gas across the phase transition. We demonstrate the behavior of $\kappa_T$ around the…

We establish an invariance principle for a one-dimensional random walk in a dynamical random environment given by a speed-change exclusion process. The jump probabilities of the walk depend on the configuration of the exclusion in a finite…

The study considers advantages of the introduced measure of time based on the entropy change under irreversible processes (entropy production). Using the example of non-equilibrium expansion of an ideal gas in vacuum, such a measure is…

We prove that the almost sure Lyapunov exponent \lambda(\kappa) of the continuous space Parabolic Anderson Model is bounded above by $c_u \kappa^{1/3}$ as $\kappa\downarrow0$ under mild regularity conditions. This bound of the same order of…

We study the statistics of infima, stopping times and passage probabilities of entropy production in nonequilibrium steady states, and show that they are universal. We consider two examples of stopping times: first-passage times of entropy…

Goldman [7] proved that the distribution of a stationary determinantal point process (DPP) $\Phi$ can be coupled with its reduced Palm version $\Phi^{0,!}$ such that there exists a point process $\eta$ where $\Phi = \Phi^{0,!} \cup \eta$ in…

We consider one-dimensional branching Brownian motion in spatially random branching environment (BBMRE) and show that for almost every realisation of the environment, the distributions of the maximal particle of the BBMRE re-centred around…

A pressure chamber is designed to study the crumpling process under an ambient force. The compression force and its resulting radius for the ball obey a power law with an exponent that is independent of the thickness and initial size of the…

We consider a class of particle systems generalizing the $\beta$-Ensembles from random matrix theory. In these new ensembles, particles experience repulsion of power $\beta>0$ when getting close, which is the same as in the…
