We show effects of granular structure of the initial conditions (IC) of hydrodynamic description of high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions on some observables, especially on the elliptic-flow parameter v2. Such a structure enhances production of isotropically distributed high-pT particles, making v2 smaller there. Also, it reduces v2 in the forward and backward regions where the global matter density is smaller, so where such effects become more efficacious.

We present a systematic study of the effects due to initial condition fluctuations in systems formed by heavy-ion collisions using the hydrodynamical simulation code NeXSPheRIO. The study was based on a sample of events generated simulating Au+Au col
lisions at center of mass energy of 200 GeV per nucleon pair with impact parameter ranging from most central to peripheral collisions. The capability of the NeXSPheRIO code to control and save the initial condition (IC) as well as the final state particles after the 3D hydrodynamical evolution allows for the investigation of the sensitivity of the experimental observables to the characteristics of the early IC. Comparisons of results from simulated events generated using fluctuating initial conditions and smooth initial condition are presented for the experimental observable elliptic flow parameter ($v_2$) as a function of the transverse momentum, $p_t$, and centrality. We compare $v_2$ values estimated using different methods, and how each method responds to effects of fluctuations in the initial condition. Finally, we quantify the flow fluctuations and compare to the fluctuations of the initial eccentricity of the energy density distribution in the transverse plane.
I review the present status of the problem of initial conditions for inflation and describe several ways to solve this problem for many popular inflationary models, including the recent generation of the models with plateau potentials favored by cosmological observations.
Double parton distribution functions (DPDFs) are used in the QCD description of double parton scattering. The DPDFs evolve with hard scales through relatively new QCD evolution equations which obey nontrivial momentum and valence quark number sum rul
es. Based on the constructed numerical program, we present results on the QCD evolution of the DPDFs. In particular, we discuss the problem how to specify initial conditions for the evolution equations which exactly fulfill the sum rules.
It is claimed that elliptic flow, ridge and alignment are effects of azimuthal asymmetry, which have a common origin evolving with primary energy and stemming from the general structure of field-theoretical matrix elements. It interrelates a new ridg
e-phenomenon, recently found at the LHC and RHIC, with known coplanarity feature observed in collider jet physics as well as in cosmic ray studies.
We show that a Bjorken expanding strongly coupled $mathcal{N}=4$ Supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma can violate the dominant and also the weak energy condition in its approach to hydrodynamics (even though the chosen initial data satisfy these constrai
nts). This suggests that nontrivial quantum effects may be needed to describe the onset of hydrodynamic behavior in heavy-ion collisions. Also, we investigate whether there is an upper bound for the initial entropy of the plasma. We find numerical evidence for such a bound in our simulations and show that close to it the system evolves with approximately zero entropy production at early times, even though it is far from equilibrium.
