When a new facility like grocery store, school, or fire station is planned, its location should ideally be determined by the necessities of people who live nearby. Empirically, it has been found that there exists positive correlation between and population densities. In present work, we investigate ideal relation densities within framework an economic mechanism governing microdynamics. previous studies based on global optimization positions in minimizing overall travel distance facilities,...
The Kuramoto model exhibits different types of synchronization transitions depending on the type natural frequency distribution. To obtain these results, self-consistency equation (SCE) approach has been used successfully. However, this affords only limited understanding more detailed properties such as stability. Here we extend SCE by introducing an effective potential, that is, integral version SCE. We examine landscape potential for second-order, first-order, and hybrid in thermodynamic...

In absence of internetwork ($J = 0$), former well known not exhibit synchronized phase at any finite strength, whereas latter displays mean-field transition. Through an analytic approach based on approximation, it found that for weakly coupled 1D ($J_{\rm I} \ll...

Currently, a variety and their patterns have been quantified based on novel experimental tools such single-particle tracking. However, comprehensive theoretical understanding for these processes remains challenging. Effectively stochastic dynamics can be modeled Langevin driven...

As model conformally invariant, measured in its ground state at critical point known to obey certain scaling form. Surprisingly, configurations found same form, although different prefactor. Moreover, we find that and inequality $I\leq E$ as well dynamically evolving situation. This holds for general systems pure can be...
We investigate a nonequilibrium phase transition in dissipative and coherent quantum spin system using the Langevin equation mean-field theory. Recently, contact process (QCP) was theoretically investigated Rydberg antiblockade effect, particular, when atoms were excited s-states so that their interactions regarded as being between nearest neighbors. However, are to d-states, dipole-dipole become effective, long-range must be considered. Here, we consider model with QCP, where branching...
An engine producing a finite power at the ideal (Carnot) efficiency is dream which not prohibited by thermodynamic second law. Some years ago, two-terminal heat with asymmetric Onsager coefficients in linear response regime was suggested Benenti et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 230602 (2011)10.1103/PhysRevLett.106.230602], as prototypical system to make such come true nondivergent parameter values. However, has never been realized, spite of many trials. Here, we introduce an exactly solvable...
The voter model with the node update rule is numerically investigated on a directed network. We start from hierarchical tree, and split rewire each incoming arc at probability $p$. In order to discriminate better worse opinions, we break ${Z}_{2}$ symmetry $(\ensuremath{\sigma}=\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}1)$ by giving little more preference opinion $\ensuremath{\sigma}=1$. It found that as $p$ becomes larger, introducing complicated pattern of information flow channels, network size $N$...
We study the efficiency of a simple quantum dot heat engine at maximum power. In contrast to quasistatically operated Carnot whose reaches theoretical maximum, recent research on more realistic engines in finite time has revealed other classes efficiencies such as Curzon-Ahlborn maximizing Such power-maximizing been argued be always half up linear order near equilibrium under tight-coupling condition between thermodynamic fluxes. show, however, that this universality may break down for...

This study investigates the suitability of annealed approximation in high-dimensional systems characterized by dense networks with quenched link disorder, employing models coupled oscillators. We demonstrate that dynamic equations governing dense-network converge to those complete-graph version thermodynamic limit, where disorder fluctuations vanish entirely. Consequently, annealed-network systems, are attenuated, also exhibit same behavior limit. However, a significant discrepancy arises...

During finite-time interval, measurement on the system is performed and feedback protocol derived from outcome applied This maintained into next interval until new applied. Unlike without delay, both memories associated previous present outcomes are involved in dynamics, which naturally brings forth joint described by state two memory states. The thermodynamic second law provides lower bound for heat flow...

In a number of classical statistical-physical models, there exists characteristic dimensionality called the upper critical dimension above which one observes mean-field behavior. Instead constructing high-dimensional lattices, however, can also consider infinite-dimensional structures, and question is whether this character extends to quantum-mechanical cases as well. We therefore investigate transverse-field quantum Ising model on globally coupled network Watts-Strogatz small-world by means...
We demonstrate that a large ensemble of noiseless globally coupled-pinned oscillators is capable rectifying spatial disorder with spontaneous current activated through dynamical phase transition mechanism, either first or second order, depending on the profile pinning potential. In presence an external weak drive, same collective mechanism can result in absolute negative mobility, which, though not immediately related to symmetry breaking, most prominent at transition.
Abstract This study investigates the suitability of annealed approximation in high-dimensional systems characterized by dense networks with quenched link disorder, employing models coupled oscillators. We demonstrate that dynamic equations governing dense-network converge to those complete-graph version thermodynamic limit, where disorder fluctuations vanish entirely. Consequently, annealed-network systems, are attenuated, also exhibit same behavior limit. However, a significant discrepancy...
The temporal evolution of the entanglement between two qubits evolving by random interactions is studied analytically and numerically. Two different types randomness are investigated. Firstly we analyze an ensemble systems with randomly chosen but time-independent interaction Hamiltonians. Secondly consider case a temporally fluctuating Hamiltonian, where unitary can be understood as walk on SU (4) group manifold. As by-product compute metric tensor its inverse well Laplace-Beltrami for (4).
We propose an efficient method for nonperturbative calculation of Green's function in a correlated electron system. The key idea the is to project out irrelevant operators having zero norm ground state, which we refer as effective projection theory. apply mesoscopic Anderson model and show that given wavefunction ansatz, equations motion can be closed only by relevant operators, allowing easy zero-temperature function. It turns resulting functions reproduce exact limits both weak strong...
