    Self-Similarity in Random Collision Processes

    Full text link
    Kinetics of collision processes with linear mixing rules are investigated analytically. The velocity distribution becomes self-similar in the long time limit and the similarity functions have algebraic or stretched exponential tails. The characteristic exponents are roots of transcendental equations and vary continuously with the mixing parameters. In the presence of conservation laws, the velocity distributions become universal.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure

    On the hereditary character of new strong variations of weyl type theorems

    Berkani and Kachad [18], [19], and Sanabria et al. [32], introduced and studied strong variations of Weyl type Theorems. In this paper, we study the behavior of these strong variations of Weyl type theorems for an operator T on a proper closed and Tinvariant subspace W ⊆ X such that T n (X) ⊆ W for some n ≥ 1, where T ∈ L(X) and X is an infinite-dimensional complex Banach space. The main purpose of this paper is to prove that for these subspaces (which generalize the case T n (X) closed for some n ≥ 0), these strong variations of Weyl type theorems are preserved from T to its restriction on W and vice-versa. As consequence of our results, we give sufficient conditions for which these strong variations of Weyl type Theorems are equivalent for two given operators. Also, some applications to multiplication operators acting on the boundary variation space BV [0, 1] are given

    Thermodynamics of exponential Kolmogorov-Nagumo averages

    This paper investigates generalized thermodynamic relationships in physical systems where relevant macroscopic variables are determined by the exponential Kolmogorov-Nagumo average. We show that while the thermodynamic entropy of such systems is naturally described by R\'{e}nyi's entropy with parameter γ\gamma, their statistics under equilibrium thermodynamics are still described by an ordinary Boltzmann distribution, which can be interpreted as a system with inverse temperature β\beta quenched to another heat bath with inverse temperature β=(1γ)β\beta' = (1-\gamma)\beta. For the non-equilibrium case, we show how the dynamics of systems described by exponential Kolmogorov-Nagumo averages still observe a second law of thermodynamics and H-theorem. We further discuss the applications of stochastic thermodynamics in those systems - namely, the validity of fluctuation theorems - and the connection with thermodynamic length.Comment: 12 pages, 1 table. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2203.1367

    A note on preservation of generalized fredholm spectra in berkani’s sense

    Get PDF
    In this paper, we study the relationships between the spectra derived from B-Fredholm theory corresponding to two given bounded linear operators. The main goal of this paper is to obtain sufficient conditions for which the spectra derived from B-Fredholm theory corresponding to two given operators are respectively the same. Among other results, we prove that B-Fredholm type spectral properties for an operator and its restriction are equivalent, as well as obtain conditions for which B-Fredholm type spectral properties corresponding to two given operators are the same. As application of our results, we obtain conditions for which the above mentioned spectra and the spectra derived from the classical Fredholm theory are the same

    Exactly Solvable Hydrogen-like Potentials and Factorization Method

    Get PDF
    A set of factorization energies is introduced, giving rise to a generalization of the Schr\"{o}dinger (or Infeld and Hull) factorization for the radial hydrogen-like Hamiltonian. An algebraic intertwining technique involving such factorization energies leads to derive nn-parametric families of potentials in general almost-isospectral to the hydrogen-like radial Hamiltonians. The construction of SUSY partner Hamiltonians with ground state energies greater than the corresponding ground state energy of the initial Hamiltonian is also explicitly performed.Comment: LaTex file, 21 pages, 2 PostScript figures and some references added.

    Pulse Dynamics in a Chain of Granules With Friction

    Full text link
    We study the dynamics of a pulse in a chain of granules with friction. We present theories for chains of cylindrical granules (Hertz potential with exponent n=2n=2) and of granules with other geometries (n>2n>2). Our results are supported via numerical simulations for cylindrical and for spherical granules (n=5/2n=5/2).Comment: Submitted to PR

    Dynamical noise can enhance high-order statistical structure in complex systems

    Full text link
    Recent research has provided a wealth of evidence highlighting the pivotal role of high-order interdependencies in supporting the information-processing capabilities of distributed complex systems. These findings may suggest that high-order interdependencies constitute a powerful resource that is, however, challenging to harness and can be readily disrupted. In this paper we contest this perspective by demonstrating that high-order interdependencies can not only exhibit robustness to stochastic perturbations, but can in fact be enhanced by them. Using elementary cellular automata as a general testbed, our results unveil the capacity of dynamical noise to enhance the statistical regularities between agents and, intriguingly, even alter the prevailing character of their interdependencies. Furthermore, our results show that these effects are related to the high-order structure of the local rules, which affect the system's susceptibility to noise and characteristic times-scales. These results deepen our understanding of how high-order interdependencies may spontaneously emerge within distributed systems interacting with stochastic environments, thus providing an initial step towards elucidating their origin and function in complex systems like the human brain.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, 2 table
