The Photon Gas in Classical Mechanics: A Statistical-Mechanical Treatment of Classical Field Theory
Farhang Loran, Saman Moghimi-Araghi
The thermodynamics of cavity radiation is usually introduced through the quantum theory of a photon gas. In contrast, we investigate which features of thermal radiation follow from…
The Co-evolution of Costly Signaling and Cooperation in Social Dilemmas
Mahdi Abolhasani, Saman Moghimi-Araghi, Mohammad Salahshour
Costly cooperation and costly signaling are both difficult to reconcile with simple fitness maximization, yet both are common in biological and social systems. We study a model in…
Does a Curved Mirror Honestly Reflect Your Identity? A Study of Multipole Images in Front of a Grounded Sphere
Farhang Loran, Saman Moghimi-Araghi
The method of image charges is a powerful and elegant technique in electrostatics, commonly used to determine the electric field generated by point charges near conductors of vario…
Loop corrections for hard spheres in Hamming space
Abolfazl Ramezanpour, Saman Moghimi-Araghi
We begin with an exact expression for the entropy of a system of hard spheres within the Hamming space. This entropy relies on probability marginals, which are determined by an ext…
Statistical physics of loopy interactions: Independent-loop approximation and beyond
A. Ramezanpour, S. Moghimi-Araghi
We consider an interacting system of spin variables on a loopy interaction graph, identified by a tree graph and a set of loopy interactions. We start from a high-temperature expan…
Simplifying Random Satisfiability Problem by Removing Frustrating Interactions
A. Ramezanpour, S. Moghimi-Araghi
How can we remove some interactions in a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) such that it still remains satisfiable? In this paper we study a modified survey propagation algorith…
