Description for Stochastic Dynamics and Irreversibility
Hardback. Series: Graduate Texts in Physics. Num Pages: 406 pages, 44 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PHU. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 24. Weight in Grams: 771.
This textbook presents an exposition of stochastic dynamics and irreversibility. It comprises the principles of probability theory and the stochastic dynamics in continuous spaces, described by Langevin and Fokker-Planck equations, and in discrete spaces, described by Markov chains and master equations. Special concern is given to the study of irreversibility, both in systems that evolve to equilibrium and in nonequilibrium stationary states. Attention is also given to the study of models displaying phase transitions and critical phenomena both in thermodynamic equilibrium and out of equilibrium.
These models include the linear Glauber model, the Glauber-Ising model, lattice models with absorbing states ... Read more
