Detailed Large Deviation Analysis of a Droplet Model Having a Poisson Equilibrium Distribution
Richard S. Ellis, Shlomo Ta'asan
One of the main contributions of this paper is to illustrate how large deviation theory can be used to determine the equilibrium distribution of a basic droplet model that underlie…
Global optimization, the Gaussian ensemble, and universal ensemble equivalence
M. Costeniuc, R. S. Ellis, H. Touchette +1
Shortened abstract: Given a constrained minimization problem, under what conditions does there exist a related, unconstrained problem having the same minimum points? This basic que…
Metastability within the generalized canonical ensemble
H. Touchette, M. Costeniuc, R. S. Ellis +1
We discuss a property of our recently introduced generalized canonical ensemble (J. Stat. Phys. 119 (2005) 1283). We show that this ensemble can be used to transform metastable or…
The Large Deviation Principle for Coarse-Grained Processes
R. S. Ellis, K. Haven, B. Turkington
The large deviation principle is proved for a class of -valued processes that arise from the coarse-graining of a random field. Coarse-grained processes of this kind form the…
