This lecture explores the fundamental principles and advanced concepts of nonequilibrium field theories and stochastic dynamics. The course focuses on stocha...

Active bond remodeling enables collagen IV networks to have a range of responses to strain while maintaining their mechanical integrity.

In this work, we investigate the chemical and kinetic nonequilibrium dynamics of the Higgs boson during the primordial Universe Quark-Gluon Plasma epoch $$130\mathrm {\,GeV}>T>10\mathrm {\,GeV}$$ 130 ...

The school will give an introduction to basic concepts, models and techniques in the study of classical and quantum nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. Subjects range from thermalization issues to response and fluctuations in steady driven or active behavior. Intended audience are PhD students and postdocs with basic knowledge (Master level and beyond) of theoretical and mathematical physics. One day will be reserved for talks of the participants, plus feedback and discussion.

An analysis that draws on nonequilibrium thermodynamics shows that thermodynamic dissipation limits data quality in diffusion models and that optimal transport dynamics yields more accurate generation...

Living cells are fundamentally nonequilibrium systems, meaning they constantly spend energy through seemingly one-way, irreversible processes, such as transcribing DNA into RNA, to keep life going. Bu...

This Collection aims to gather theoretical, computational, and empirical contributions that advance the use of variational principles to explain and predict ...

Ratchet mechanisms allow external energy to drive pumping or directional motion on the ground state. An energy ratchet uses external modulation to destroy correlations present at equilibrium and an i...
