A book of techniques and applications, this text defines the path integral and illustrates its uses
by example. It is suitable for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in physics; …

This book is an introduction to the arrow of time in thermodynamics and cosmology, and
develops a new quantum measurement theory in which the foregoing concepts play an …

Consider a one-dimensional independent bond percolation model withp j denoting the
probability of an occupied bond between integer sitesi andi±j,j≧1. Ifp j is fixed forj≧2 and $$\…

The usual formulation of the quantum Zeno effect (QZE) uses a sequence of rapid observations
to prevent change. The same effect can be achieved with continuous observation. For …

Schrödinger's equation and the heat equation are connected to one another by analytic
continuation, as are the Feynman integral and the Wiener integral. We extend this form of …

Theory of dwarf galaxies ADS Classic is now deprecated. It will be completely retired in October
2019. This page will automatically redirect to the new ADS interface at that point. SAO/NASA …

The qualitative nature of infinite clusters in percolation models is investigated. The results,
which apply to both independent and correlated percolation in any dimension, concern the …

For systems out of equilibrium, much of the formal structure of thermodynamics and statistical
mechanics is inapplicable. Numerous authors have addressed this problem, and our own …

A theory is presented in which much of the structure of spiral galaxies arises from a percolation
phase transition that underlies the phenomenon of propagating star formation. According …

For lattice sites at integer values along the line let the probability of a bond between sites m
and n be p/mod mn mod s, m not= n, 0< or= p< 1, 1< s< or= 2. The author proves that for p< …
