A Monte Carlo simulation is performed on a billiard-type model system, which contains a locally nonchaotic energy barrier. Without extensive particle collision across the energy barrier, the system steady state is nonequilibrium; that is, the particles follow a non-Boltzmann distribution. Remarkably, as the energy barrier varies in an isothermal cycle, the total produced work is greater than the total consumed work, because of the asymmetry in the cross-influence of the thermally correlated thermodynamic driving forces. Such a phenomenon cannot be explained by the second law of thermodynamics. Similar anomalous effects may be achieved if the barrier is switchable or asymmetric. In essence, the energy barrier is a spontaneously nonequilibrium dimension. It is fundamentally different from Maxwells demon, unrelated to the physical nature of information.

The ground-state properties of spin-polarized tritium T$downarrow$ at zero temperature are obtained by means of diffusion Monte Carlo calculations. Using an accurate {em ab initio} T$downarrow$-T$downarrow$ interatomic potential we have studied its l
iquid phase, from the spinodal point until densities above its freezing point. The equilibrium density of the liquid is significantly higher and the equilibrium energy of $-3.664(6)$ K significantly lower than in previous approximate descriptions. The solid phase has also been studied for three lattices up to high pressures, and we find that hcp lattice is slightly preferred. The liquid-solid phase transition has been determined using the double-tangent Maxwell construction; at zero temperature, bulk tritium freezes at a pressure of $P=9(1)$ bar.
Properties of the self-adjusted Monte Carlo algorithm applied to 2d Ising ferromagnet are studied numerically. The endogenous feedback form expressed in terms of the instant running averages is suggested in order to generate a biased random walk of t
he temperature that converges to criticality without an external tuning. The robustness of a stationary regime with respect to partial accessibility of the information is demonstrated. Several statistical and scaling aspects have been identified which allow to establish an alternative spin lattice model of the financial market. It turns out that our model alike model suggested by S. Bornholdt, Int. J. Mod. Phys. C {bf 12} (2001) 667, may be described by Levy-type stationary distribution of feedback variations with unique exponent $alpha_1 sim 3.3$. However, the differences reflected by Hurst exponents suggest that resemblances between the studied models seem to be nontrivial.
Accelerated algorithms for simulating the morphological evolution of strained heteroeptiaxy based on a ball and spring lattice model in three dimensions are explained. We derive exact Greens function formalisms for boundary values in the associated l
attice elasticity problems. The computational efficiency is further enhanced by using a superparticle surface coarsening approximation. Atomic hoppings simulating surface diffusion are sampled using a multi-step acceptance-rejection algorithm. It utilizes quick estimates of the atomic elastic energies from extensively tabulated values modulated by the local strain. A parameter controls the compromise between accuracy and efficiency of the acceptance-rejection algorithm.
We have used the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation method with Metropolis algorithm to study the finite temperature phase transition properties of a binary alloy spherical nanoparticle with radius $r$ of the type $A_{p}B_{1-p}$. The system consists of two
different species of magnetic components, namely, $A$ and $B$, and the components of the system have been selected $A$ and $B$ to be as $sigma = 1/2$ and $S=1$, respectively. A complete picture of phase diagrams, total magnetizations and susceptibilities in related planes have been presented, and the main roles of the radius of nanoparticle, active concentration value of type-$A$ atoms as well as other system parameters on the thermal and magnetic phase transition features of the considered system have been discussed in detail. Our MC investigations clearly show that it is possible to control the critical characteristic behaviors of the system with the help of adjustable Hamiltonian parameters.
Work extraction from the Gibbs ensemble by a cyclic operation is impossible, as represented by the second law of thermodynamics. On the other hand, the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) states that just a single energy eigenstate can describ
e a thermal equilibrium state. Here we attempt to unify these two perspectives and investigate the second law at the level of individual energy eigenstates, by examining the possibility of extracting work from a single energy eigenstate. Specifically, we performed numerical exact diagonalization of a quench protocol of local Hamiltonians and evaluated the number of work-extractable energy eigenstates. We found that it becomes exactly zero in a finite system size, implying that a positive amount of work cannot be extracted from any energy eigenstate, if one or both of the pre- and the post-quench Hamiltonians are non-integrable. We argue that the mechanism behind this numerical observation is based on the ETH for a non-local observable. Our result implies that quantum chaos, characterized by non-integrability, leads to a stronger version of the second law than the conventional formulation based on the statistical ensembles.
