We present a method that exploits self-consistent simulation of coarse-grained and fine-grained models, in order to analyse properties of physical systems. The method uses the coarse-grained model to obtain a first estimate of the quantity of interest, before computing a correction by analysing properties of the fine system. We illustrate the method by applying it to the Asakura-Oosawa (AO) model of colloid-polymer mixtures. We show that the liquid-vapour critical point in that system is affected by three-body interactions which are neglected in the corresponding coarse-grained model. We analyse the size of this effect and the nature of the three-body interactions. We also analyse the accuracy of the method, as a function of the associated computational effort.

The lattice-Boltzmann method (LBM) and its variants have emerged as promising, computationally efficient and increasingly popular numerical methods for modelling complex fluid flow. However, it is acknowledged that the method can demonstrate numerica
l instabilities, e.g., in the vicinity of shocks. We propose a simple and novel technique to stabilise the lattice-Boltzmann method by monitoring the difference between microscopic and macroscopic entropy. Populations are returned to their equilibrium states if a threshold value is exceeded. We coin the name Ehrenfests steps for this procedure in homage to the vehicle that we use to introduce the procedure, namely, the Ehrenfests idea of coarse-graining. The one-dimensional shock tube for a compressible isothermal fluid is a standard benchmark test for hydrodynamic codes. We observe that, of all the LBMs considered in the numerical experiment with the one-dimensional shock tube, only the method which includes Ehrenfests steps is capable of suppressing spurious post-shock oscillations.
We study the coarse-graining approach to derive a generator for the evolution of an open quantum system over a finite time interval. The approach does not require a secular approximation but nevertheless generally leads to a Lindblad-Gorini-Kossakows
ki-Sudarshan generator. By combining the formalism with Full Counting Statistics, we can demonstrate a consistent thermodynamic framework, once the switching work required for the coupling and decoupling with the reservoir is included. Particularly, we can write the second law in standard form, with the only difference that heat currents must be defined with respect to the reservoir. We exemplify our findings with simple but pedagogical examples.
We consider the application of fluctuation relations to the dynamics of coarse-grained systems, as might arise in a hypothetical experiment in which a system is monitored with a low-resolution measuring apparatus. We analyze a stochastic, Markovian j
ump process with a specific structure that lends itself naturally to coarse-graining. A perturbative analysis yields a reduced stochastic jump process that approximates the coarse-grained dynamics of the original system. This leads to a non-trivial fluctuation relation that is approximately satisfied by the coarse-grained dynamics. We illustrate our results by computing the large deviations of a particular stochastic jump process. Our results highlight the possibility that observed deviations from fluctuation relations might be due to the presence of unobserved degrees of freedom.
For a given thermodynamic system, and a given choice of coarse-grained state variables, the knowledge of a force-flux constitutive law is the basis for any nonequilibrium modeling. In the first paper of this series we established how, by a generaliza
tion of the classical fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT), the structure of a constitutive law is directly related to the distribution of the fluctuations of the state variables. When these fluctuations can be expressed in terms of diffusion processes, one may use Green-Kubo-type coarse-graining schemes to find the constitutive laws. In this paper we propose a coarse-graining method that is valid when the fluctuations are described by means of general Markov processes, which include diffusions as a special case. We prove the success of the method by numerically computing the constitutive law for a simple chemical reaction $A rightleftarrows B$. Furthermore, we show that one cannot find a consistent constitutive law by any Green-Kubo-like scheme.
Water modeling is a challenging problem. Its anomalies are difficult to reproduce, promoting the proliferation of a large number of computational models, among which researchers select the most appropriate for the property they study. In this chapter
, we introduce a coarse-grained model introduced by Franzese and Stanley (FS) that accounts for the many-body interactions of water. We review mean-field calculations and Monte Carlo simulations on water monolayers for a wide range of pressures and temperatures, including extreme conditions. The results show the presence of two dynamic crossovers and explain the origin of diffusion anomalies. Moreover, the model shows that all the different scenarios, proposed in the last decades as alternative explanations of the experimental anomalies of water, can be related by the fine-tuning of the many-body (cooperative) interaction. Once this parameter is set from the experiments, the FS model predicts a phase transition between two liquids with different densities and energies in the supercooled water region, ending in a liquid-liquid critical point. From this critical point stems a liquid-liquid Widom line, i.e., the locus of maxima of the water correlation length, that in the FS model can be directly calculated. The results are consistent with the extrapolations from experiments. Furthermore, they agree with those from atomistic models but make predictions over a much wider thermodynamic region, allowing for a better interpretation of the available experimental data. All these findings provide a coherent picture of the properties of water and confirm the validity of the FS model that has proved to be useful for large-scale simulations of biological systems.
