Statistical physics, computer simulation and discrete mathematics are intimately related through the study of shared lattice models. These models lie at the foundation of all thre...
The study of complex networks led to the belief that the connectivity of network nodes generally follows a Power-law distribution. In this work, we show that modeling large-scale ...

— Planetary surface exploration rovers must accurately and efficiently predict their mobility on natural, rough terrain. Most approaches to mobility prediction assume precise a p...
Traditional collision intensive multi-body simulations are difficult to control due to extreme sensitivity to initial conditions or model parameters. Furthermore, there may be mu...
— We propose an implementable new universal lossy source coding algorithm. The new algorithm utilizes two wellknown tools from statistical physics and computer science: Gibbs sam...
