The local statistical and geometric structure of three-dimensional turbulent flow can be described by properties of the velocity gradient tensor. A stochastic model is developed for the Lagrangian time evolution of this tensor, in which the…

Filtration of real gases described by Peng-Robinson equations of state in 3-dimensional space is studied. Thermodynamic states are considered as either Legendrian submanifolds in contact space, or Lagrangian submanifolds in symplectic…

We develop a general theory of transport barriers for three-dimensional unsteady flows with arbitrary time-dependence. The barriers are obtained as two-dimensional Lagrangian Coherent Structures (LCSs) that create locally maximal…

This paper is devoted to the development of a theoretical and computational framework to efficiently sample the statistically significant thermally activated reaction pathways, in multi-dimensional systems obeying Langevin dynamics. We show…

An extended Keldysh formalism, well suited to properly take into account the initial correlations, is used in order to deal with the time-dependent current response of a resonant tunneling system. We use a \textit{partition-free} approach…

Transition interface sampling (TIS) and replica exchange TIS (RETIS) are powerful methods for computing rates of rare events inaccessible to straightforward molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Path reweighting extends their output,…

The aim of the paper is to study some dynamic aspects coming from a tangent form, i.e. a time dependent differential form on a tangent bundle. The action on curves of a tangent form is natural associated with that of a second order…

This study address the computational determination of catalytic reaction rates by moving beyond traditional Transition State Theory (TST), addressing its limitations in complex systems. The Hill relation framework, integrated with Adaptive…

Dynamical quantum phase transitions occur when a dynamical free energy becomes non-analytic at critical \emph{times}. They have been shown to exist in, among other systems, topological insulators and superconductors. Additionally in both…

The low-temperature driven or thermally activated motion of several condensed matter systems is often modeled by the dynamics of interfaces (co-dimension-1 elastic manifolds) subject to a random potential. Two characteristic quantitative…

Living systems are maintained out-of-equilibrium by external driving forces. At stationarity, they exhibit emergent selection phenomena that break equilibrium symmetries and originate from the expansion of the accessible chemical space due…

We formulate a new theory for how caging constraints in glass-forming liquids at a surface or interface are modified and then spatially transferred, in a layer-by-layer bootstrapped manner, into the film interior in the context of the…

This article investigates stationary surfaces with boundaries, which arise as the critical points of functionals dependent on curvature. Precisely, a generalized "bending energy" functional $\mathcal{W}$ is considered which involves a…

We report a Lagrangian study on the evolution of material surfaces in the K-type temporal transitional channel flow. Based on the Eulerian velocity field from the DNS, a backward-particle-tracking method is applied to solve the transport…

An approach is presented for identifying separatrices in phase space generated from noisy time series data sets representative of measured experimental data. These separatrices are identified as ridges in the phase space distribution of…

In a recent article, Krapivsky and Redner (J. Stat. Mech. 093208 (2018)) established that the distribution of the first hitting times for a diffusing particle subject to hitting an absorber is independent of the direction of the external…

We examine the question of whether the formal expressions of equilibrium statistical mechanics can be applied to time independent non-dissipative systems that are not in true thermodynamic equilibrium and are nonergodic. By assuming the…

The rate-limiting step of some enzymatic reactions is a physical step, i.e. diffusion. The efficiency of such reactions can be improved through an increase in the arrival rate of the substrate molecules, e.g. by a directed passage of…

The crossing of a transition state in a multidimensional reactive system is mediated by invariant geometric objects in phase space: An invariant hyper-sphere that represents the transition state itself and invariant hyper-cylinders that…

Lagrangian turbulence lies at the core of numerous applied and fundamental problems related to the physics of dispersion and mixing in engineering, bio-fluids, atmosphere, oceans, and astrophysics. Despite exceptional theoretical,…
