相关论文: About David Ruelle, after his 80th birthday
Recollections by the author about how his interactions with John Wheeler influenced his career in physics.
This is an unchanged version of an unpublished, ``state of the art'' survey given at a conference held in Stuttgart in 2001 to celebrate the 100th birthday of Richard Brauer. This text was recently quoted in several papers on the…
These notes contain -- apart from some physics -- scattered reminiscences of everyday life at the Institute for Theoretical Physics in G\"oteborg in the early eighties. The text has been in the making for many years. Some of it was written…
These notes gather recent results on robust statistical learning theory. The goal is to stress the main principles underlying the construction and theoretical analysis of these estimators rather than provide an exhaustive account on this…
These are lecture notes written at the University of Zurich during spring 2014 and spring 2015. The first part of the notes gives an introduction to probability theory. It explains the notion of random events and random variables,…
Before retiring, looking back to forty years of writing and publishing scientific papers, I decided to present to the scientific community a selection of my scientific works. I chose mostly articles published in prestigious journals or…
Let $ R $ be a rational map. We are interesting in the dynamic of the Ruelle operator on suitable spaces of differentials. In particular the necessary and sufficient conditions (in terms of convergence of sequences of measures) of existence…
We study the statistics of citations from all Physical Review journals for the 110-year period 1893 until 2003. In addition to characterizing the citation distribution and identifying publications with the highest citation impact, we…
I am presenting a first-ever scientific collection of short sayings on probability and statistics expressed by most various men of science, many classics included, from antiquity to Kepler to our time. Quite understandably, the reader will…
Recently, there has been an explosion of work on network routing in hostile environments. Hostile environments tend to be dynamic, and the motivation for this work stems from the scenario of IED placements by insurgents in a logistical…
The essay is devoted to the personality of the prominent theorist D.V. Volkov and his pioneer works in quantum field theory and elementary particle physics.
The recollection of souvenirs on great theoretical physicist, addressed to wide physical audience on the occasion of Bogoliubov centenary. Contains four parts: 1. Personal impressions; 2. Joint work; 3. Bogoliubov cp. Landau and 4.…
This is an expanded and updated version of the talk I gave at the meeting organized at CERN on April 27-28, 2015 dedicated to honoring the memory of Bruno Zumino and his legacy. In this talk I review the emergence of exceptional structures…
Lecture given at the International Meeting ``Boltzmann's Legacy - 150 Years after his Birth'', organized by the Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei, 25 - 28 May 1994, in Rome, to be published in: ``Atti dell"Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei'',…
GGR News: we hear that..., by David Garfinkle What's new in LIGO, by David Shoemaker News from NSF, by Pedro Marronetti Citation counts and indicies: Beware of bad data, by Clifford Will Research Briefs: Results from Planck, by William…
This is an extensive review of recent work on the foundations of statistical mechanics. Subject matters discussed include: interpretation of probability, typicality, recurrence, reversibility, ergodicity, mixing, coarse graining, past…
This article is an introduction to newly discovered relations between volumes of moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces or super Riemann surfaces, simple models of gravity or supergravity in two dimensions, and random matrix ensembles. (The…
In this paper, we describe several different meanings for the concept of Gibbs measure on the lattice $\mathbb{N}$ in the context of finite alphabets (or state space). We compare and analyze these "in principle" distinct notions: DLR-Gibbs…
This paper is based on a talk delivered on 16 November, 2015 in Osaka at the Nambu's Century: International Symposium on Yoichiro Nambu's Physics
This is an introduction to the special issue collection of articles on "Semi-classical and quantum Rabi models" to be published in J. Phys. A to mark the 80th anniversary of the Rabi model.
