Statistical Mechanics of Non-stretching Elastica in Three Dimensional Space
Recently I proposed a new calculation scheme of a partition function of an immersion object using path integral method and theory of soliton (J.Phys.A (1998) 31 Mar). I applied the scheme to problem of elastica in two-dimensional space and Willmore surface in three dimensional space. In this article, I will apply the scheme to elastica in three dimensional space as a more physical model in poly...
متن کاملThe Statistical Mechanics of the Three-Dimensional Euclidean Black Hole
In its formulation as a Chern-Simons theory, threedimensional general relativity induces a Wess-Zumino-Witten action on spatial boundaries. Treating the horizon of the three-dimensional Euclidean black hole as a boundary, I count the states of the resulting WZW model, and show that they yield the correct Bekenstein-Hawking entropy. The relevant states can be understood as “would-be gauge” degre...
متن کاملNon equilibrium statistical mechanics
In part I of these lecture notes, I introduce the basic tools of non equilibrium statistical mechanics: linear response, Brownian motion, Langevin equation, (Pauli) master equation. Part II is devoted to a derivation of quantum master equations from the Schrödinger equation, and to some of their applications to quantum optics and to Brownian motion. Finally, in part III, I examine more recent d...
متن کاملSpace as a Semiotic Object: A Three-Dimensional Model of Vertical Structure of Space in Calvino’s Invisible Cities
Following the “spatial turn” of the last 3 decades in humanities and social sciences and the structure of semiotic object, this research studies space as the main semiotic object of Calvino’s (1972) Invisible Cities. Significance of this application resides in examining the possibility of providing a more concrete methodology based on the integration of Zoran’s (1984) 3 vertical levels of const...
متن کاملStatistical mechanics of two-dimensional turbulence
A statistical mechanical description is proposed for two-dimensional inviscid fluid turbulence. Using this description, we make predictions for turbulent flow in a rapidly rotating laboratory annulus. Measurements on this system reveal coherent vortices in a mean zonal flow. The flow is anisotropic and inhomogeneous but has low dissipation and forcing. In statistical mechanics two crucial requi...
