متن کاملJarzynski equality: connections to thermodynamics and the second law.
The one-dimensional expanding ideal gas model is used to compute the exact nonequilibrium distribution function. The state of the system during the expansion is defined in terms of local thermodynamics quantities. The final equilibrium free energy, obtained a long time after the expansion, is compared against the free energy that appears in the Jarzynski equality. Within this model, where the J...
متن کاملRemoteness of permutation codes
Let X be a finite set of ‘points’ and d be a metric on X which takes integral values. For any v ∈ X and t ≥ 0, we refer to the set Bt(v) = {u ∈ X : d(u, v) ≤ t} as the ball of radius t centered at v, and we denote the minimum (maximum, respectively) volume of a ball with radius t in X as V min t (V max t ). Let C ⊆ X, C 6= ∅ be a code, i.e. a set of points, which we will refer to as codewords. ...
