We present the conceptual and technical background required to describe and understand the correlations and fluctuations of the empirical density and current of steady-state diffusion processes on all time scales -- observables central to…
We present an effective evolution equation for a coarse-grained distribution function of a long-range-interacting system preserving the symplectic structure of the non-collisional Boltzmann, or Vlasov, equation. We first derive a general…
The so-called ``symplectic method'' is used for studying the linear stability of a self-gravitating collisionless stellar system, in which the particles are also submitted to an external potential. The system is steady and spherically…
In the mean field limit, isolated gravitational systems often evolve towards a steady state through a violent relaxation phase. One question is to understand the nature of this relaxation phase, in particular the role of radial…
Fluctuations in small biological systems can be crucial for their function. Large-deviation theory characterizes such rare events from the perspective of stochastic processes. In most cases it is very difficult to directly determine the…
We address aspects of coarse-graining in classical Statistical Physics from the viewpoint of the symplectic non-squeezing theorem. We make some comments regarding the implications of the symplectic non-squeezing theorem for the BBGKY…
We compute statistical equilibrium states of rotating self-gravitating systems enclosed within a box by maximizing the Fermi-Dirac entropy at fixed mass, energy and angular momentum. We increase the rotation up to the Keplerian limit and…
A novel scheme to simulate the evolution of a restricted set of observables of a quantum system is proposed. The set comprises the spectrum-generating algebra of the Hamiltonian. The idea is to consider a certain open-system evolution,…
A computational tool for coarse-graining nonlinear systems of ordinary differential equations in time is discussed. Three illustrative model examples are worked out that demonstrate the range of capability of the method. This includes the…
We investigate the effect of fragmentation on the homogeneous free cooling of inelastic hard spheres, using Boltzmann kinetic theory and Direct Monte Carlo simulations. We analyze in detail a model where dissipative collisions may…
We study the evolution under their self-gravity of infinite ``shuffled lattice'' particle distributions, focussing specifically on the comparison of this evolution with that of ``daughter'' particle distributions, defined by a simple…
Inspired by holographic Wilsonian renormalization, we consider coarse graining a quantum system divided between short distance and long distance degrees of freedom, coupled via the Hamiltonian. Observations using purely long distance…
We study statistical mechanics of the self--gravitating system applying the cluster expansion method developed in solid state physics. By summing infinite series of diagrams, we derive a complex free energy whose imaginary part is related…
Important gaps remain in our understanding of the thermodynamics and statistical physics of self-gravitating systems. Using mean field theory, here we investigate the equilibrium properties of several spherically symmetric model systems…
We investigate the asymptotic damping of a perturbation around inhomogeneous stable stationary states of the Vlasov equation in spatially multi-dimensional systems. We show that branch singularities of the Fourier-Laplace transform of the…
Coarse graining techniques offer a promising alternative to large-scale simulations of complex dynamical systems, as long as the coarse-grained system is truly representative of the initial one. Here, we investigate how the dynamical…
We develop a systematic coarse graining procedure for systems of $N$ qubits. We exploit the underlying geometrical structures of the associated discrete phase space to produce a coarse-grained version with reduced effective size. Our…
A temporally varying discretization often features in discrete gravitational systems and appears in lattice field theory models subject to a coarse graining or refining dynamics. To better understand such discretization changing dynamics in…
We study, using numerical simulations, the dynamical evolution of self-gravitating point particles in static euclidean space, starting from a simple class of infinite ``shuffled lattice'' initial conditions. These are obtained by applying…
We present here the preliminary results obtained for two experiments on randomly agitated granular assemblies using a novel way of shaking. First we discuss the transport properties of a 2D model system undergoing classical shaking that…
