NANOTCAD2D: Two-dimensional code for the simulation of nanoelectronic devices and structures
G. Curatola, G. Iannaccone
In this paper we present NANOTCAD2D, a code for the simulation of the electrical properties of semiconductor-based nanoelectronic devices and structures in two-dimensional domains.…
Finite-Size Scaling in the Driven Lattice Gas
Sergio Caracciolo, Andrea Gambassi, Massimiliano Gubinelli +1
We present a Monte Carlo study of the high-temperature phase of the two-dimensional driven lattice gas at infinite driving field. We define a finite-volume correlation length, veri…
On Symplectic Fillings of Lens Spaces
Paolo Lisca
Let C be the contact structure naturally induced on the lens space L(p,q) by the standard contact structure on the three--sphere. We obtain a complete classification of the symplec…
In the search for the low-complexity sequences in prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes: how to derive a coherent picture from global and local entropy measures
Claudia Acquisti, Paolo Allegrini, Patrizia Bogani +6
We investigate on a possible way to connect the presence of Low-Complexity Sequences (LCS) in DNA genomes and the nonstationary properties of base correlations. Under the hypothesi…
Detection of invisible and crucial events: from seismic fluctuations to the war against terrorism
Paolo Allegrini, Leone Fronzoni, Paolo Grigolini +5
We prove the efficiency of a new method for the detection of crucial events that might have useful applications to the war against terrorism. This has to do with the search for rar…
From Knowledge, Knowability and the Search for Objective Randomness to a New Vision of Complexity
Paolo Allegrini, Martina Giuntoli, Paolo Grigolini +1
Herein we consider various concepts of entropy as measures of the complexity of phenomena and in so doing encounter a fundamental problem in physics that affects how we understand…
