Stochastic Dynamics of Complex Systems
From Glasses to Evolution
Language: English
Release Date: February 20, 2013
Dynamical evolution over long time scales is a prominent feature of all the systems we intuitively think of as complex — for example, ecosystems, the brain or the economy. In physics, the term ageing is used for this type of slow change, occurring over time scales much longer than the patience,...

Beyond the Second Law
Entropy Production and Non-equilibrium Systems
Language: English
Release Date: December 2, 2013
The Second Law, a cornerstone of thermodynamics, governs the average direction of dissipative, non-equilibrium processes. But it says nothing about their actual rates or the probability of fluctuations about the average. This interdisciplinary book, written and peer-reviewed by international experts,...
