This book provides a captivating journey through the realms of classical and quantum systems as it unravels the profound influence that noise may have on their static and dynamic properties.
The book builds on the analogy between social groups and assemblies of molecules to introduce the concepts of statistical mechanics, machine learning and data science.

This textbook offers an introduction to statistical mechanics, special relativity, and quantum physics, developed from lecture notes for the "e;Quantum Physics"e; course at the University of Padua.
Nonequilibrium statistical mechanics (NESM), practically synonymous with time-dependent statistical mechanics (TDSM), is a beautiful and profound subject, vast in scope, diverse in applications, and indispensable in understanding the changing natural phenomena we encounter in the physical, chemical and biological world.
In ›Die Erfindung der Prä-Astronautik‹ nimmt der Autor den Leser mit auf eine fesselnde Reise durch die faszinierende Geschichte und Entwicklung einer der kontroversesten Ideen des 20.
This second edition of Dynamics, Information and Complexity in Quantum Systems widens its scope by focussing more on the dynamics of quantum correlations and information in microscopic and mesoscopic systems, and their use for metrological and machine learning purposes.

This textbook gradually introduces students to the statistical mechanical study of the different phases of matter and to the phase transitions between them.
The aim of this advanced textbook is to provide the reader with a comprehensive explanation of the ground state configurations, the spin wave excitations and the equilibrium properties of spin lattices described by the Ising-Heisenberg Hamiltonians in the presence of short (exchange) and long range (dipole) interactions.
The principal message of this book is that thermodynamics and statistical mechanics will benefit from replacing the unfortunate, misleading and mysterious term "e;entropy"e; with a more familiar, meaningful and appropriate term such as information, missing information or uncertainty.
This edited volume collects six surveys that present state-of-the-art results on modeling, qualitative analysis, and simulation of active matter, focusing on specific applications in the natural sciences.
Introductory Statistical Thermodynamics is a text for an introductory one-semester course in statistical thermodynamics for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in physics and engineering.
A group of distinguished scientists contributes to the foundations of a new discipline in Earth sciences: earthquake thermodynamics and thermodynamics of formation of the Earth's interior structures.
Recent experimental evidence about the possibility of "e;absolute negative temperature"e; states in physical systems has triggered a stimulating debate about the consistency of such a concept from the point of view of Statistical Mechanics.
This book covers recent developments in the understanding, quantification, and exploitation of entanglement in spin chain models from both condensed matter and quantum information perspectives.
The importance of thermodynamics, particularly its Second Principle, to all branches of science in which systems with very large numbers of particles are involved cannot be overstated.
