چکیده

The information contained in any given experimental time series can be utilized more exhaustively when transition probabilities between states are studied rather than state probabilities alone. Using advanced techniques of time series analysis, it is shown that deviations from dynamical randomness indicate evidence for unexpected temporal correlation features in selected data sets taken from a mind-matter experiment conducted at Freiburg (Germany). The techniques of analysis and a proper error estimation are brie y described, and some preliminary rst results are presented. They encourage further inquiry into processual aspects of deviations from randomness in addition to more straightforward analyses of state probabilities.

Dynamical Large Deviations for the Boundary Driven Weakly Asymmetric Exclusion Process

We consider the weakly asymmetric exclusion process on a bounded interval with particles reservoirs at the endpoints. The hydrodynamic limit for the empirical density, obtained in the diffusive scaling, is given by the viscous Burgers equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We prove the associated dynamical large deviations principle.

Fluctuations of dynamical scaling indices in nonlinear systems.

Due to fluctuations around the metric entropy of chaotic dynamical systems there exists a spectrum of invariant dynamical scaling indices, complementary to the range of invariant static scaling indices which have been discovered and apphed recently. The basic scaling behavior in both cases is shown to be rooted in the thermodynamic formalism of dynamical systems. An explicit simple example of t...

Instability and chaotic dynamics in stock returns

In this paper we examine certain properties of the Dow Jones and the Nikkey indices, investigating the existence of stochastic and deterministic non­ linear structures. Using the detrended fluctuation analysis, we construct a local measurement of randomness which identifies some extreme events and their im­ pact on the randomness of the systems. Our results suggest no evidence of chaos in the d...

Scaling relations in dynamical evolution of star clusters

We have carried out a series of small scale collisional N-body calculations of single-mass star clusters to investigate the dependence of the lifetime of star clusters on their initial parameters. Our models move through an external galaxy potential with a logarithmic density profile and they are limited by a cut-off radius. In order to find scaling relations between the lifetime of star cluste...

More Reliable Inference for Segregation Indices 070409

The most widely used measure of segregation is the dissimilarity index, D. It is now well understood that this measure also reflects randomness in the allocation of individuals to units; that is, it measures deviations from evenness not deviations from randomness. This leads to potentially large values of the segregation index when unit sizes and/or minority proportions are small, even if there...
