The phenomenon of resonance in the continuous phase transition of finite-size systems: A passage from Classical World to Quantum World through the resonance?
Yiannis F. Contoyiannis, Stelios M. Potirakis
In finite-size systems undergoing a continuous phase transition, the passage from the symmetric phase to the broken-symmetry phase is accomplished through a hysteresis zone, up to…
New phenomena beyond Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking
Y. Contoyiannis, P. Papadopoulos, L. Matiadou +3
It is known that in thermal systems of finite size that are subject to second order phase transitions and until the spontaneous symmetry breaking is completed, the fluctuations of…
Biot-Savart type magnetic field quantization via prime number theory, applications to symbolic dynamics
Y. Contoyiannis, P. Papadopoulos, N. L. Matiadou +1
In the present work we propose an algorithm based on the theory of prime numbers for the estimation of the magnetic field in a device of current carrying circular rings. Using the…
Post-spontaneous-symmetry-breaking power-laws after a very strong earthquake: Indication for the preparation of a new strong earthquake or not?
Stelios M. Potirakis, Yiannis Contoyiannis, Konstantinos Eftaxias +2
It has recently been found that the evolution of the preparation of a strong earthquake (EQ), as it is monitored through fracture-induced electromagnetic emissions (EME) in the MHz…
Spontaneous symmetry breaking in finite systems and anomalous order-parameter correlations
Fotis K. Diakonos, Yiannis F. Contoyiannis, Stelios M. Potirakis
We show that the spontaneous symmetry breaking can be defined also for finite systems based on the properly defined jump probability between the ground states in the 2d and 3d Isin…
On the effectiveness of imposing restrictive measures in a graded Self-Organized Criticality epidemic spread model The case of COVID-19
Y. Contoyiannis, S. G. Stavrinides, M. P. Hanias +3
The scope of this work is to serve as a guiding tool against subjective estimations on real pandemic situations (mainly due to the inability to acquire objective real data over who…
