Universality Classes for Extreme Value Statistics
نویسندگان
چکیده
The low temperature physics of disordered systems is governed by the statistics of extremely low energy states. It is thus rather important to discuss the possible universality classes for extreme value statistics. We compare the usual probabilistic classification to the results of the replica approach. We show in detail that one class of independent variables corresponds exactly to the so-called one step replica symmetry breaking solution in the replica language. This universality class holds if the correlations are sufficiently weak. We discuss the relation between the statistics of extremes and the problem of Burgers turbulence in decay.

Extreme Value Laws for Superstatistics
We study the extreme value distribution of stochastic processes modeled by superstatistics. Classical extreme value theory asserts that (under mild asymptotic independence assumptions) only three possible limit distributions are possible, namely: Gumbel, Fréchet and Weibull distribution. On the other hand, superstatistics contains three important universality classes, namely χ-superstatistics, ...
متن کاملNew Type of Extreme Value Statistics
We investigate the extreme value statistics connected with the dilute Random Energy Model with integer couplings. New universality class is found. Extreme value statistics [1] statistics play an important role in statistical mechanics and theory of probability [2-5]. They describe the minimal and maximal bounds for the distribution of a large number of independent random quantities , and it is ...
متن کاملDifferent extreme value statistics connected with REM.
Different extreme value statistics connected with REM. Abstract We investigate the extreme value statistics connected with the dilute Random Energy Model. Different classes of universality were found in the spin-glass phase, at the border between spin-glass and dilute paramagnet and in the dilute paramagnetic phase itself. The obtained results are new compared to that of the fully-connected mod...
متن کاملDriven particle in a random landscape: disorder correlator, avalanche distribution, and extreme value statistics of records.
We review how the renormalized force correlator Delta(micro) , the function computed in the functional renormalization-group (RG) field theory, can be measured directly in numerics and experiments on the dynamics of elastic manifolds in the presence of pinning disorder. We show how this function can be computed analytically for a particle dragged through a one-dimensional random-force landscape...
متن کاملUniversal statistics of selected values
Selection, the tendency of some traits to become more frequent than others in a population under the influence of some (natural or artificial) agency, is a key component of Darwinian evolution and countless other natural and social phenomena. Yet a general theory of selection, analogous to the Fisher-Tippett-Gnedenko theory of extreme events, is lacking. Here we introduce a probabilistic defini...
