Efficiency of discrete-time ratchets
P. Amengual, R. Toral, A. Allison +1
Recently there has been much interest in discrete forms of Brownian ratchets, using a game-theoretic formalism. Using the approach pioneered by Parrondo, we develop a new method fo…
A Monte-Carlo and Self-Consistent Field calculations of encapsulated spherical polymer brushes
Juan J. Cerda, Tomas Sintes, Raul Toral
We present the results of extensive numerical self-consistent field (SCF) and 3-dimensional off-lattice Monte Carlo (MC) studies of a spherical brush confined into a spherical cavi…
Ensemble equivalence for non-Bolztmannian distributions
Raul Toral
We discuss the possibility of using generalized canonical distributions, i.e. using other factors than , in order to compute the equilibrium properties of physical syste…
On the derivation of amplitude equations for nonlinear oscillators subject to arbitrary forcing
R. Toral, C. Mayol, C. Mirasso
By using a generalization of the multiple scales technique we develop a method to derive amplitude equations for zero--dimensional forced systems. The method allows to consider eit…
System size coherence resonance
Raul Toral, Claudio Mirasso, James D. Gunton
We show the existence of a system size coherence resonance effect for an ensemble of globally coupled excitable systems. Namely, we demonstrate numerically that the regularity in t…
Capital Redistribution Brings Wealth by Parrondo's Paradox
Raul Toral
We present new versions of the Parrondo's paradox by which a losing game can be turned into winning by including a mechanism that allows redistribution of the capital amongst an en…
