چکیده

It is usually assumed, in classical statistical mechanics, that the temperature should coincide, apart from a suitable constant factor, with the mean kinetic energy of the particles. We show that this is not the case for Fermi–Pasta–Ulam systems, in conditions in which energy equipartition between the modes is not attained. We find that the temperature should be rather identified with the mean value of the energy of the low frequency modes.

The thermodynamic Bethe ansatz method is employed for the study of the integrable critical RSOS(q1, q2; q) model. The high and low temperature behavior are investigated, and the central charge of the effective conformal field theory is derived. The obtained central charge is expressed as the sum of the central charges of two generalized coset models.

On the Thermodynamic Temperature of a General Distribution

The concept of temperature is one of the key ideas in describing the thermodynamical properties of a physical system. In classical statistical mechanics of ideal gases, the notion of temperature can be described in two different ways, the kinetic temperature and the thermodynamic temperature. For the Boltzmann distribution, the two notions lead to the same result. However, for a general probabi...

Planar graphs with maximum degree ∆ ≥ 9 are ( ∆ + 1 ) - edge - choosable – short proof

We give a short proof of the following theorem due to Borodin [2]. Every planar graph with maximum degree ∆ ≥ 9 is (∆ + 1)-edge-choosable.

1 4 N ov 2 00 8 Overlap Interfaces in Hierarchical Spin - Glass models

We discuss interfaces in spin glasses. We present new theoretical results and a numerical method to characterize overlap interfaces and the stability of the spinglass phase in extended disordered systems. We use this definition to characterize the low temperature phase of hierarchical spin-glass models. We use the Replica Symmetry Breaking theory to evaluate the cost for an overlap interface, w...
