The statistical physics of graphs and partition functions represents a vibrant intersection of graph theory, statistical mechanics and computational complexity. By summing over an ensemble of ...

Statistical mechanics has long provided the theoretical bedrock for understanding phase transitions—sharp changes in the physical state of matter—and, more recently, the associated large deviations ...

A study by University of Hawaiʻi researchers is advancing how we learn the laws that govern complex systems—from predator-prey relationships to traffic patterns in cities to how populations grow and ...

A research team led by Prof. PAN Ding, Associate Professor from the Departments of Physics and Chemistry, and Dr. LI Shuo-Hui, Research Assistant Professor from the Department of Physics at the Hong ...
