Recent developments in superstatistics
Christian Beck
We provide an overview on superstatistical techniques applied to complex systems with time scale separation. Three examples of recent applications are dealt with in somewhat more d…
Axiomatic approach to the cosmological constant
Christian Beck
A theory of the cosmological constant Lambda is currently out of reach. Still, one can start from a set of axioms that describe the most desirable properties a cosmological constan…
Superstatistical distributions from a maximum entropy principle
Erik Van der Straeten, Christian Beck
We deal with a generalized statistical description of nonequilibrium complex systems based on least biased distributions given some prior information. A maximum entropy principle i…
Discrete symmetries of chaotic strings
Mirko Schaefer, Christian Beck
Chaotic strings are particular classes of coupled map lattices that can serve as models for vacuum fluctuations in stochastically quantized field theories. They have been previousl…
Chaotic quantization and the mass spectrum of fermions
Muhammad Maher, Christian Beck
In order to understand the parameters of the standard model of electroweak and strong interactions, one needs to embed the standard model into some larger theory that accounts for…
