In the course we will first introduce the basic concepts of percolation, its scaling laws and its fractal subsets like the backbone, the elastic backbone, the shortest path with its perturbations and the distribution of currents. We will also present rigidity percolation, bootstrap percolation and drilling percolation. Particular emphasis will be given to discontinuous percolation like...
Control theory is an important topic for physicists that rarely is covered by standard curricula. In these three sessions, I will introduce the main ideas and discuss basic ideas such as feedback, feedforward, and robustness and how they apply to stochastic thermodynamics.
- Session 1 will introduce control theory as a whole and motivate its interest and value to physicists, both for...
In the last decades thermodynamics have been extended to small (microscopic or nanoscopic) scales, where fluctuations play a major role pushing systems out of equilibrium, and where genuine quantum effects cannot be neglected anymore. Quantum thermodynamics is an interdisciplinary and growing field that places at the intersection of quantum information and non-equilibrium statistical physics....
