Their decisions align with their initial bias, regardless of the underlying truth. In contrast, agents who decide last make decisions as if they were initially unbiased and hence make better choices. We obtain asymptotic expressions in the large population limit quantifying how agents' initial inclinations shape early decisions. Our analysis shows how bias, information quality, and decision order interact in nontrivial ways to determine the reliability of decisions in a group.","PeriodicalId":20085,"journal":{"name":"Physical review.

It still vanishes though at absolute zero, in accord with an extended Nernst heat postulate, but at a different rate from the equilibrium case.

Here we use theory and coarse-grained simulation to study a recently developed class of “curvamer” particles, flexible shell-like particles that exhibit self-limiting assembly due to the build up of curvature deformation in cohesive stacks. To address a generic, yet poorly understood aspect of frustrated assembly, we introduce a model of curvamer assembly that incorporates both <i>intraparticle</i> shape deformation as well as compliance of <i>interparticle</i> cohesive gaps, an effect we can attribute to a <i>finite range of attraction</i> between particles. We show that the ratio of intraparticle (bending elasticity) to interparticle stiffness not only controls the regimes of self-limitation but also the nature of frustration propagation through curvamer stacks. We find a transition from uniformly bound, curvature-focusing stacks at small size to gap opened, uniformly curved stacks at large size is controlled by a dimensionless measure of inter- versus intracurvamer stiffness. The finite range of interparticle attraction determines the range of cohesion in stacks that are self-limiting, a prediction which is in strong agreement with numerical studies of our coarse-grained colloidal model. These predictions provide critical guidance for experimental realizations of frustrated particle systems designed to exhibit self-limitation at especially large multiparticle scales.","PeriodicalId":20085,"journal":{"name":"Physical review.

The classical model and its quantum analog share a transition between chaotic and controlled phases, driven by a randomly applied control map that attempts to order the system. In the quantum model, the control map necessitates measurements that concurrently drive a phase transition in the entanglement content of the late-time steady state. To explore the interplay of the control and entanglement transitions, we derive an effective Potts model from the quantum model and use it to probe information-theoretic quantities that witness both transitions. The entanglement transition is found to be in the bond-percolation universality class, consistent with other measurement-induced phase transitions, while the control transition is governed by a classical random walk. These two phase transitions can be made to coincide by varying a parameter in the model, producing a picture consistent with behavior observed in previous small-size numerical studies of the quantum model.","PeriodicalId":20085,"journal":{"name":"Physical review.

We find that the averages over the initial states exhibit universal and scale-invariant patterns when conditioning on fluctuations. To establish universality of our findings, we demonstrate scale invariance at different times and heights using large-scale Monte Carlo simulations of the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process, which belongs to the KPZ universality class. Here we focus on current (or height) fluctuations in the steady-state regime described by the Baik-Rains distribution. The conditioned probability distribution of an initial-state order parameter shows a transition from uni- to bimodal. Bimodality occurs for negative current/height fluctuations that are dominated by superdiffusive shock dynamics. It is caused by two possible point-symmetric shock profiles and the KPZ mirror symmetry breakdown. Similar surprising relations between initial states and fluctuations might exist in other universality classes as well.","PeriodicalId":20085,"journal":{"name":"Physical review.

These macroscopic models have achieved great success in capturing non-Fourier thermal behaviors in solid materials, but most of them are limited by small Knudsen numbers and incapable of capturing highly nonequilibrium or ballistic thermal transport. In this paper, we provide a different strategy for constructing macroscopic non-Fourier heat conduction modeling, that is, using data-driven deep-learning methods combined with nonequilibrium thermodynamics instead of small perturbation expansion. We present the mechanism-data fusion method, an approach that seamlessly integrates the rigorous framework of conservation-dissipation formalism (CDF) with the flexibility of machine learning to model non-Fourier heat conduction. Leveraging the conservation-dissipation principle with dual-dissipative variables, we derive an interpretable series of partial differential equations, fine tuned through a training strategy informed by data from the phonon Boltzmann transport equation. Moreover, we also present the inner-step operation to narrow the gap from the discrete form to the continuous system. Through numerical tests, our model demonstrates excellent predictive capabilities across various heat conduction regimes, including diffusive, hydrodynamic, and ballistic regimes, and displays its robustness and precision even with discontinuous initial conditions.","PeriodicalId":20085,"journal":{"name":"Physical review.
