Characterizing the Dynamics of Muscle Regeneration in the mdx Mouse Model
Elena Scibona, Davide Carbone, Lamberto Rondoni +1
In this work, we explore a model of immune response in the skeletal muscle of the mdx mouse, the preferred animal model for studying Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. The system studied…
Small-System Group: Thermodynamics as a Complete Self-Similarity Limit
Amilcare Porporato, Lamberto Rondoni
We revisit the Rayleigh--Riabouchinsky paradox in dimensional analysis by making explicit the bridge between thermodynamics and the mechanical interpretation of temperature. Boltzm…
Computing Nonequilibrium Transport from Short-Time Transients: From Lorentz Gas to Heat Conduction in One Dimensional Chains
Davide Carbone, Vincenzo Di Florio, Stefano Lepri +1
We test the Transient Time Correlation Function (TTCF) method to compute nonequilibrium transport coefficients, highlighting its conceptual and practical difference from the standa…
Dynamics of stochastic oscillator chains with harmonic and FPUT potentials
Emilio N. M. Cirillo, Matteo Colangeli, Claudio Giberti +1
Inspired by recent studies on deterministic oscillator models, we introduce a stochastic one-dimensional model for a chain of interacting particles. The model consists of oscil…
Tackling Heterogeneity in Federated Learning via Variance-Reduced Boltzmann Sampling within Homogeneous Social Coalitions
Alessandro Licciardi, Roberta Raineri, Anton Proskurnikov +2
Federated Learning (FL) enables privacy-preserving collaborative model training, but its effectiveness is often limited by client data heterogeneity. We introduce a client-selectio…
Dynamics of the Kac Ring Model with switching scatterers
Leonid A. Bunimovich, Emilio N. M. Cirillo, Matteo Colangeli +1
We introduce a generalized version of the Kac ring model in which particles are of two types, black and white. Black particles modify the environment through which all particles mo…
