Singularities of Transition Processes in Dynamical Systems
by Alexander N. Gorban
Publisher: American Mathematical Society 2004
Number of pages: 55
Description:
This monograph presents a systematic analysis of the singularities in the transition processes for dynamical systems. We study general dynamical systems, with dependence on a parameter, and construct relaxation times that depend on three variables: Initial conditions, parameters of the system, and accuracy of the relaxation.

Mathematical Principles of Dynamic Systems and the Foundations of Quantum Physicsby Eric Tesse - arXiv
This article will take up the question of what underlies the quantum formalism, whether it can be derived from simpler mathematical structures, and if so, what physical properties a system must possess in order for the formalism to hold.

Ergodic Optimization, Zero Temperature Limits and the Max-plus Algebraby A. T. Baraviera, R. Leplaideur, A. O. Lopes - arXiv
We review some basic notions in ergodic theory and thermodynamic formalism, as well as introductory results in the context of max-plus algebra, in order to exhibit some properties of equilibrium measures when temperature goes to zero.

Variational Modelling: Energies, gradient flows, and large deviationsby Mark A. Peletier - arXiv
The notes describe the methodology called Variational Modelling, and focus on the application to the modelling of gradient-flow systems. I describe the methodology itself in great detail, and explain why this is a rational modelling route.
