Kinetic processes in fractal stellar media are analysed in terms of the approach developed in our earlier paper (Chumak \& Rastorguev, 2015) involving a generalization of the nearest neighbour and random force distributions to fractal…

We construct stable and causal effective field theories (EFTs) for describing statistical fluctuations in relativistic diffusion and relativistic hydrodynamics. These EFTs are fully non-linear, including couplings to background sources, and…

The article provides a unitary and complete solution to the fluctuation-dissipation relations for particle hydromechanics in a generic fluid, accounting for the hydrodynamic fluid-particle interactions (including arbitrary memory kernels in…

We provide a rather extended introduction to the group field theory approach to quantum gravity, and the main ideas behind it. We present in some detail the GFT quantization of 3d Riemannian gravity, and discuss briefly the current status…

Kinetics of separation between the low and high density phases in a single component Lennard-Jones model has been studied via molecular dynamics simulations, at a very low temperature, in the space dimension $d=2$. For densities close to…

Metallic films are important in catalysis, magneto-optic storage media, and interconnects in microelectronics, and it is crucial to predict and control their morphologies. The evolution of a growing crystal is determined by the behavior of…

This work continues a program to systematically generalize the Skyrme Hartree-Fock method for medium and heavy nuclei by applying effective field theory (EFT) methods to Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT). When conventional Kohn-Sham…

This article reviews the prevailing paradigm for how galaxies and larger structures formed in the universe: gravitational instability. Basic observational facts are summarized to motivate the standard cosmological framework underlying most…

Reaction-diffusion processes play an important role in a variety of physical, chemical, and biological systems. Conventionally, the kinetics of these processes are described by the law of mass action. However, there are various cases where…

The fluctuation-dissipation relations (FDR) are powerful relations which can capture the essence of the interplay between a system and its environment. Challenging problems of this nature which FDRs aid in our understanding include the…

We present first elements of kinetic theory appropriate to the inhomogeneous phase of the HMF model. In particular, we investigate the case of strongly inhomogeneous distributions for $T\to 0$ and exhibit curious behaviour of the force…

Stellar systems - star clusters, galaxies, dark matter haloes, and so on - are ubiquitous characters in the evolutionary tale of our Universe. This tutorial article is an introduction to the collective dynamical evolution of the very large…

The density-functional (DF) theory provides a simple method for calculating the properties of an interacting system under an external potential by associating it with a corresponding non-interacting system. Here, we find some relations in…

A relativistic kinetic description for the irreversible thermodynamic process of gravitationally induced particle production is proposed in the context of an expanding Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) geometry. We show that the covariant…

The development of kinetic energy functional (KEF) is known as one of the most difficult subjects in the electronic density functional theory (DFT). In particular, the sound description of chemical bonds using a KEF is a matter of great…

We derive a closed equation for the empirical concentration of colloidal particles in the presence of both hydrodynamic and direct interactions. The ensemble average of our functional Langevin equation reproduces known deterministic Dynamic…

Modern applications of Covariant Density Functional Theory (CDFT) are discussed. First we show a systematic investigation of fission barriers in actinide nuclei within constraint relativistic mean field theory allowing for triaxial…

Variations in the geomagnetic field occur on a vast range of time scales, from milliseconds to millions of years. The advent of satellite measurements has allowed for detailed studies of the short timescale geomagnetic field behaviour, but…

Kramer's approach to the rate of the thermally activated escape from a metastable state is extended to field theory. Diffusion rate in the 1+1-dimensional Sine-Gordon model as a function of temperature and friction coefficient is evaluated…

We develop a simple semi-analytic model of the star formation rate (SFR) as a function of time. We estimate the SFR for a wide range of values of the cosmological constant, spatial curvature, and primordial density contrast. Our model can…
