Finite-component system phase transitions in and out of equilibrium
Abstract: Contrary to the long-held belief that phase transitions occur only in the thermodynamic limit of infinite number of constituents, we have recently discovered that finite-component systems o...

Is the wave function in one-to-one correspondence with reality?
Abstract: The old question (considered already by Einstein) whether the quantum-mechanical wave function represents "reality" has recently attracted renewed interest. Amazingly, modern approaches ins...
