A general formulation of scalar hysteresis is proposed. This formulation is based on two steps. First, a generating function g(x) is associated with an individual system, and a hysteresis evolution operator is defined by an appropriate envelope construction applied to g(x), inspired by the overdamped dynamics of systems evolving in multistable free energy landscapes. Second, the average hysteresis response of an ensemble of such systems is expressed as a functional integral over the space G of all admissible generating functions, under the assumption that an appropriate measure m has been introduced in G. The consequences of the formulation are analyzed in detail in the case where the measure m is generated by a continuous, Markovian stochastic process. The calculation of the hysteresis properties of the ensemble is reduced to the solution of the level-crossing problem for the stochastic process. In particular, it is shown that, when the process is translationally invariant (homogeneous), the ensuing hysteresis properties can be exactly described by the Preisach model of hysteresis, and the associated Preisach distribution is expressed in closed analytic form in terms of the drift and diffusion parameters of the Markovian process. Possible applications of the formulation are suggested, concerning the interpretation of magnetic hysteresis due to domain wall motion in quenched-in disorder, and the interpretation of critical state models of superconducting hysteresis.

We extend our previously developed method, structure integration, to evaluate free energy directly for magnetic large systems on given lattice. The present method express the density of states(DOS) as the parameters independent of system but depend o n lattice, and replace the DOS unknown a priori as that known a priori. Through two-dimensional square lattice Ising model, we find that the present method can evaluate magnetic free energy efficiently and accurately above critical temperature without iterative method like Monte Carlo simulation.

The hysteresis of the Ising model in a spatially homogeneous AC field is studied using both mean-field calculations and two-dimensional Monte Carlo simulations. The frequency dispersion and the temperature dependence of the hysteresis loop area are s tudied in relation to the dynamic symmetry loss. The dynamic mechanisms may be different when the hysteresis loops are symmetric or asymmetric, and they can lead to a double-peak frequency dispersion and qualitatively different temperature dependence.
In this article, we put forward a new approach to electrodynamics of materials. Based on the identification of induced electromagnetic fields as the microscopic counterparts of polarization and magnetization, we systematically employ the mutual funct ional dependencies of induced, external and total field quantities. This allows for a unified, relativistic description of the electromagnetic response without assuming the material to be composed of electric or magnetic dipoles. Using this approach, we derive universal (material-independent) relations between electromagnetic response functions such as the dielectric tensor, the magnetic susceptibility and the microscopic conductivity tensor. Our formulae can be reduced to well-known identities in special cases, but more generally include the effects of inhomogeneity, anisotropy, magnetoelectric coupling and relativistic retardation. If combined with the Kubo formalism, they would also lend themselves to the ab initio calculation of all linear electromagnetic response functions.

Standard derivations of the functional integral in non-equilibrium quantum field theory are based on the discrete time representation. In this work we derive the non-equilibrium functional integral for non-interacting bosons and fermions using a cont inuum time approach by accounting for the statistical distribution through the boundary conditions and using them to evaluate the Greens function.

Nucleation of a solid in solid is initiated by the appearance of distinct dynamical heterogeneities, consisting of `active particles whose trajectories show an abrupt transition from ballistic to diffusive, coincident with the discontinuous transitio n in microstructure from a {it twinned martensite} to {it ferrite}. The active particles exhibit intermittent jamming and flow. The nature of active particle trajectories decides the fate of the transforming solid -- on suppressing single particle diffusion, the transformation proceeds via rare string-like correlated excitations, giving rise to twinned martensitic nuclei. These string-like excitations flow along ridges in the potential energy topography set up by inactive particles. We characterize this transition using a thermodynamics in the space of trajectories in terms of a dynamical action for the active particles confined by the inactive particles. Our study brings together the physics of glass, jamming, plasticity and solid nucleation.
