We compute the logarithmic coefficient of the entanglement entropy on a sphere for a Maxwell field in $d=4$ dimensions. In spherical coordinates the problem decomposes into one dimensional ones along the radial coordinate for each angular…

Starting from relativistic quantum field theories, Kovtun et al. (2005) have quite recently proposed a lower bound eta/s >= hbar /(4 pi kB), where eta is the shear viscosity and s the volume density of entropy for dense liquids. If their…

The topological entropy of a braid is the infimum of the entropies of all homeomorphisms of the disc which have a finite invariant set represented by the braid. When the isotopy class represented by the braid is pseudo-Anosov or is…

We show that the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy associated with any black hole undergoes logarithmic corrections when small thermodynamic fluctuations around equilibrium are taken into account. Thus, the corrected expression for black hole…

Let $M$ be a closed, oriented, and connected Riemannian $n$-manifold, for $n\ge 2$, which is not a rational homology sphere. We show that, for a non-constant and non-injective uniformly quasiregular self-map $f\colon M\to M$, the…

Using the density-matrix renormalization-group, we investigate the critical behavior of the anisotropic Heisenberg chains with spins up to $S=9/2$. We show that through the relations arising from the conformal invariance and the DMRG…

In this paper we prove that the so--called entropy equation, i.e., \[ H\left(x, y, z\right)=H\left(x+y, 0, z\right)+H\left(x, y, 0\right) \] is stable in the sense of Hyers and Ulam on the positive cone of $\mathbb{R}^{3}$, assuming that…

In a previous work (M. Campisi. Stud. Hist. Phil. M. P. 36 (2005) 275-290) we have addressed the mechanical foundations of equilibrium thermodynamics on the basis of the Generalized Helmholtz Theorem. It was found that the volume entropy…

We compute the Minimal Entropy of every closed, orientable $3$-manifold, showing that its cube equals the sum of the cubes of the minimal entropies of each hyperbolic component arising from the $JSJ$ decomposition of each prime summand. As…

The $\mathrm{SU}(4)$ Heisenberg model on the honeycomb lattice is expected to host a quantum spin-orbital liquid at low temperature with an astonishing candidate material, $\alpha$-ZrCl$_3$. We employed the canonical thermal pure quantum…

The phase diagram of ice Ih, II, and III is studied by a quasi-harmonic approximation. The results of this approach are compared to phase diagrams previously derived by thermodynamic integration using path integral and classical…

We determine the asymptotic behavior of the entropy of full coverings of a $L \times M$ square lattice by rods of size $k\times 1$ and $1\times k$, in the limit of large $k$. We show that full coverage is possible only if at least one of…

We show that the low-energy sector of the S=1/2, antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on a one-dimensional lattice of coupled tetrahedra consists of 2^N replica of the spectrum of the dimerized Heisenberg chain, where N is the number of…

An effective low-energy description for multi-leg spin-1/2 Heisenberg ladders with an odd number of legs is proposed. Using a newly developed Monte Carlo loop algorithm and exact diagonalization techniques, the uniform and staggered…

In this thesis, we provide an initial investigation into bounds for topological entropy of switched linear systems. Entropy measures, roughly, the information needed to describe the behavior of a system with finite precision on finite time…

The ice-type model proposed by Linus Pauling to explain its entropy at low temperatures is here approached in a didactic way. We first present a theoretically estimated low-temperature entropy and compare it with numerical results. Then, we…

We study properties of space-like monopole trajectories in the Maximal Abelian gauge of quenched SU(2) QCD at the finite temperature. We concentrate on infrared monopole clusters which are responsible for the confinement properties of the…

We consider high dimensional Wishart matrices $\mathbb{X} \mathbb{X}^{\top}$ where the entries of $\mathbb{X} \in {\mathbb{R}^{n \times d}}$ are i.i.d. from a log-concave distribution. We prove an information theoretic phase transition:…

In this article we study the regularity of the topological and metric entropy of partially hyperbolic flows with two-dimensional center direction. We show that the topological entropy is upper semicontinuous with respect to the flow, and we…

We introduce two simple models with nearest neighbor interactions on 3D hexagonal lattices. Each model allows one to calculate the residual entropy of ice I (ordinary ice) by means of multicanonical simulations. This gives the correction to…
