By recourse to i) the Hellmann-Feynman theorem and ii) the Virial one, the information-optimizing principle based on Fishers information measure uncovers a Legendre-transform structure associated with Schrodingers equation, in close analogy with the structure that lies behind the standard thermodynamical formalism. The present developments provide new evidence for the information theoretical links based on Fishers measure that exist between Schrodingers equation, on the one hand, and thermodynamics/thermostatistics on the other one.

We propose a two-parametric non-distributive algebraic structure that follows from $(q,q)$-logarithm and $(q,q)$-exponential functions. Properties of generalized $(q,q)$-operators are analyzed. We also generalize the proposal into a multi-parametric structure (generalization of logarithm and exponential functions and the corresponding algebraic operators). All $n$-parameter expressions recover $(n-1)$-generalization when the corresponding $q_nto1$. Nonextensive statistical mechanics has been the source of successive generalizations of entropic forms and mathematical structures, in which this work is a consequence.
Any decomposition of the total trajectory entropy production for Markovian systems has a joint probability distribution satisfying a generalized detailed fluctuation theorem, when all the contributing terms are odd with respect to time reversal. The expression of the result does not bring into play dual probability distributions, hence easing potential applications. We show that several fluctuation theorems for perturbed non-equilibrium steady states are unified and arise as particular cases of this general result. In particular, we show that the joint probability distribution of the system and reservoir trajectory entropies satisfy a detailed fluctuation theorem valid for all times although each contribution does not do it separately.
Here we present a model for a small system combined with an explicit entropy bath that is comparably small. The dynamics of the model is defined by a simple matrix, M. Each row of M corresponds to a macrostate of the system, e.g. net alignment, while the elements in the row represent microstates. The constant number of elements in each row ensures constant entropy, which allows reversible fluctuations, similar to information theory where a constant number of bits allows reversible computations. Many elements in M come from the microstates of the system, but many others come from the bath. Bypassing the bath states yields fluctuations that exhibit standard white noise; whereas with bath states the power spectral density varies as S(f)~1/f over a wide range of frequencies, f. Thus, the explicit entropy bath is the mechanism of 1/f noise in this model. Both forms of the model match Crooks fluctuation theorem exactly, indicating that the theorem applies not only to infinite reservoirs, but also to finite-sized baths. The model is used to analyze measurements of 1/f-like noise from a sub-micron tunnel junction.
Stochastic mechanics---the study of classical stochastic systems governed by things like master equations and Fokker-Planck equations---exhibits striking mathematical parallels to quantum mechanics. In this article, we make those parallels more trans parent by presenting a quantum mechanics-like formalism for deriving a path integral description of systems described by stochastic differential equations. Our formalism expediently recovers the usual path integrals (the Martin-Siggia-Rose-Janssen-De Dominicis and Onsager-Machlup forms) and is flexible enough to account for different variable domains (e.g. real line versus compact interval), stochastic interpretations, arbitrary numbers of variables, explicit time-dependence, dimensionful control parameters, and more. We discuss the implications of our formalism for stochastic biology.

A theoretical account is given of the microscopic basis of the rate- and state-dependent friction (RSF) law. The RSF law describes rock friction quantitatively and therefore it is commonly used to model earthquakes and the related phenomena. But the RSF law is rather empirical and the theoretical basis has not been very clear. Here we derive the RSF law starting from constitutive laws for asperities, and give the atomistic expressions for the empirical RSF parameters. In particular, we show that both the length constant and the state variable are given as the 0th weighted power means of the corresponding microscopic quantities: a linear dimension and the contact duration of each asperity. As a result, evolution laws for the state variable can be derived systematically. We demonstrate that the aging and the slip laws can be derived and clarify the approximations behind these two major evolution laws. Additionally, the scaling properties of the length constant are clarified for fractal distribution of asperities.
