Statistical complexity from fluctuations in the information content
Renio S. Mendes, Sergio Picoli, Evaldo M. F. Curado
We argue that the variance of the information content (), an information-theoretic quantity, can be naturally interpreted as a measure of statistical complexity. We show that $C…
A unified framework for divergences, free energies, and Fokker-Planck equations
Anna L. F. Lucchi, Jean H. Y. Passos, Max Jauregui +1
Many efforts have been made to explore systems that show significant deviations from predictions related to the standard statistical mechanics. The present work introduces a unifie…
Shape patterns in popularity series of video games
Leonardo R. Cunha, Arthur A. B. Pessa, Renio S. Mendes
In recent years, digital games have become increasingly present in people's lives both as a leisure activity or in gamified activities of everyday life. Despite this growing presen…
Long-range spatial correlations and fluctuation statistics of lightning activity rates in Brazil
H. V. Ribeiro, F. J. Antonio, L. G. A. Alves +2
We report on a statistical analysis of the lightning activity rates in all Brazilian cities. We find out that the average of lightning activity rates exhibit a dependence on the la…
Antipersistent behavior of defects in a lyotropic liquid crystal during annihilation
H. V. Ribeiro, R. R. Guimaraes, R. T. Teixeira-Souza +4
We report on the dynamical behavior of defects of strength s = +/- 1/2 in a lyotropic liquid crystal during the annihilation process. By following their positions using time resolv…
Annihilation dynamics of stringlike topological defects in a nematic lyotropic liquid crystal
R. R. Guimarães, R. S. Mendes, P. R. G. Fernandes +1
Topological defects can appear whenever there is some type of ordering. Its ubiquity in nature has been the subject of several studies, from early Universe to condensed matter. In…
