Carrying out explicitly the computation in a paradigmatic model of non-interacting systems, the Gaussian Model, we show the existence of a singular point in the probability distribution $P(M)$ of an extensive variable $M$. Interpreting $P(M)$ as a thermodynamic potential of a dual system obtained from the original one by applying a constraint, we discuss how the non-analytical point of $P(M)$ is the counterpart of a phase-transition in the companion system. We show the generality of such mechanism by considering both the system in equilibrium or in the non-equilibrium state following a temperature quench.

We have exactly solved the relaxational dynamics of a model protein which possesses a kinetically perfect funnel-like energy landscape. We find that the dependence of the relaxation time, $tau$, on the density of states (DOS) and the energy level spa
cing distributions of the model displays several main types of behavior depending on the temperature $T$. This allows us to identify possible generic features of the relaxation. For some ranges of $T$, $tau$ is insensitive to the density of states; for intermediate values of $T$ it depends on the energy level spacing distribution rather than on the DOS directly, and it becomes gradually more dependent on DOS with increasing temperature; finally, the relaxation can also be determined exclusively by the presence of a deep gap in the energy spectrum rather than by the detailed features of the density of states. We found that the behavior of $tau$ crucially depends on the degeneracy of the energy spectrum. For the special case of exponentially increasing degeneracy, we were able to identify a characteristic temperature which roughly separates the relaxational regimes controlled by energetics and by entropy, respectively. Finally, the validity of our theory is discussed when roughness of energy landscape is added.
The ``Brownian bees model describes an ensemble of $N$ independent branching Brownian particles. When a particle branches into two particles, the particle farthest from the origin is eliminated so as to keep a constant number of particles. In the lim
it of $Nto infty$, the spatial density of the particles is governed by the solution of a free boundary problem for a reaction-diffusion equation. At long times the particle density approaches a spherically symmetric steady state solution with a compact support. Here we study fluctuations of the ``swarm of bees due to the random character of the branching Brownian motion in the limit of large but finite $N$. We consider a one-dimensional setting and focus on two fluctuating quantities: the swarm center of mass $X(t)$ and the swarm radius $ell(t)$. Linearizing a pertinent Langevin equation around the deterministic steady state solution, we calculate the two-time covariances of $X(t)$ and $ell(t)$. The variance of $X(t)$ directly follows from the covariance of $X(t)$, and it scales as $1/N$ as to be expected from the law of large numbers. The variance of $ell(t)$ behaves differently: it exhibits an anomalous scaling $ln N/N$. This anomaly appears because all spatial scales, including a narrow region near the edges of the swarm where only a few particles are present, give a significant contribution to the variance. We argue that the variance of $ell(t)$ can be obtained from the covariance of $ell(t)$ by introducing a cutoff at the microscopic time $1/N$ where the continuum Langevin description breaks down. Our theoretical predictions are in good agreement with Monte-Carlo simulations of the microscopic model. Generalizations to higher dimensions are briefly discussed.
We predict the emergence of turbulent scaling in the quench dynamics of the two-dimensional Heisenberg model for a wide range of initial conditions and model parameters. In the isotropic Heisenberg model, we find that the spin-spin correlation functi
on exhibits universal scaling consistent with a turbulent energy cascade. When the spin rotational symmetry is broken by an easy-plane exchange anisotropy, we find a dual cascade of energy and an emergent conserved charge associated to transverse magnetization fluctuations. The scaling exponents are estimated analytically and agree with numerical simulations using phase space methods. We also define the space of initial conditions (as a function of energy, magnetization, and spin number $S$) that lead to a turbulent cascade. The universal character of the cascade, insensitive to microscopic details or initial conditions, suggests that turbulence in spin systems can be broadly realized in cold atom and solid-state experiments.
Fluctuations of energy and heat are investigated during the relaxation following the instantaneous temperature quench of an extended system. Results are obtained analytically for the Gaussian model and for the large $N$ model quenched below the criti
cal temperature $T_C$. The main finding is that fluctuations exceeding a critical threshold do condense. Though driven by a mechanism similar to that of Bose-Einstein condensation, this phenomenon is an out-of-equilibrium feature produced by the breaking of energy equipartition occurring in the transient regime. The dynamical nature of the transition is illustrated by phase diagrams extending in the time direction.
We study the relaxation process in a two-dimensional lattice gas model, where the interactions come from the excluded volume. In this model particles have three arms with an asymmetrical shape, which results in geometrical frustration that inhibits f
ull packing. A dynamical crossover is found at the arm percolation of the particles, from a dynamical behavior characterized by a single step relaxation above the transition, to a two-step decay below it. Relaxation functions of the self-part of density fluctuations are well fitted by a stretched exponential form, with a $beta$ exponent decreasing when the temperature is lowered until the percolation transition is reached, and constant below it. The structural arrest of the model seems to happen only at the maximum density of the model, where both the inverse diffusivity and the relaxation time of density fluctuations diverge with a power law. The dynamical non linear susceptibility, defined as the fluctuations of the self-overlap autocorrelation, exhibits a peak at some characteristic time, which seems to diverge at the maximum density as well.
