We investigate similarities and differencies between systems of many interacting players maximizing their individual payoffs and particles minimizing their interaction energy. To address the problem of equilibrium selection in spatial games with many players we introduce a concept of ensemble stability. The standard stochastic stability describes a longrun behavior of systems with a fixed numbe...

A travelling waves analysis for a polyatomic gas with n internal energy storage modes is performed. In both the frozen ow and the equilibrium limit the existence and the qualitative behaviour of travelling waves are investigated. Methods from geometric singular perturbation theory are used to study these limits.

The paper presents a simulation of the deployment/retraction of a solid surface deployable reflector recently developed at Cambridge University. The simulation takes proper account of the contacts that can develop between panels of adjacent wings of the reflector, by implementing the theory for tracing the equilibrium path of a mechanical system with unilateral constraints that has been propose...

This paper examines equilibrium and stability in symmetric two-player cheaptalk games and specifically characterizes the set of neutrally stable outcomes in cheap-talk 2 × 2 coordination games. With a finite message set, this set is finite. As the number of messages goes to infinity, the set expands toward a countable limit. The Pareto efficient Nash equilibrium payoff is its unique cluster poi...

In this article we address the problem of quantum tunneling of a non-Markovian Brownian particle away from thermal equilibrium. We calculate the Kramers escape rate at low temperature (including the zero temperature case) in the Smoluchowski limit (strong friction regime). Our main findings are: (i) our quantum escape rate is valid far from the thermal equilibrium and is non-Markovian, but it b...
