Hyperbolic embedding of brain networks detects regions disrupted by neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease

Alice Longhena, Martin Guillemaud, Fabrizio De Vico Fallani, Raffaella Migliaccio, and Mario Chavez

Phys. Rev. E 111, 044402 (2025) - Published 2 April, 2025

Alzheimer’s disease disrupts the brain’s connectivity structure, through processes such as progressive neuronal loss and brain atrophy. In this study, the authors propose a method based on a hyperbolic representation of brain networks to characterize brain regions with connectivity anomalies. They show that the method successfully identifies regions affected by neurodegeneration, opening the door to use it as a biomarker for disease progression.

Nonanalytic Landau functionals shaping the finite-size scaling of fluctuations and response functions in and out of equilibrium

Krzysztof Ptaszyński and Massimiliano Esposito

Phys. Rev. E 111, 044142 (2025) - Published 29 April, 2025

Landau theory describes phase transitions in terms of a free energy that is a functional of an order parameter. A common assumption is that this functional is analytic, but it can be expanded to include nonanalytic terms. Here the authors show for two specific examples that such terms can control the scaling of quantities such as the fluctuations of the order parameter at the critical point.

Low-resolution descriptions of model neural activity reveal hidden features and underlying system properties

Riccardo Aldrigo, Roberto Menichetti, and Raffaello Potestio

Phys. Rev. E 111, 044315 (2025) - Published 21 April, 2025

Understanding the complex behavior of biological neural networks is hampered by their large size and intricate nature. To tackle such systems, simplified and computationally manageable models are often employed that aim at capturing specific aspects of neural activity, one notable example being the Hopfield model. This study uses an information-theoretic method, mapping entropy optimization workflow, in the Hopfield model to identify and characterize subsets of constituent neurons that provide significant information about the entire system’s behavior, given only the time series of the neural network states.

Microbial populations hardly ever grow logistically and never sublinearly

José Camacho-Mateu, Aniello Lampo, Mario Castro, and José A. Cuesta

Phys. Rev. E 111, 044404 (2025) - Published 4 April, 2025

Challenging the conventional logistic model, this study shows that microbial growth follows a generalized $θ$ -logistic model, accounting for environmental fluctuations. The findings show microbial growth is never sublinear, with significant implications for macroecological patterns and the mechanisms governing microbial ecosystem stability.

Phase separation on deformable membranes: Interplay of mechanical coupling and dynamic surface geometry

Antonia Winter, Yuhao Liu, Alexander Ziepke, George Dadunashvili, and Erwin Frey

Phys. Rev. E 111, 044405 (2025) - Published 10 April, 2025

Combining theoretical analysis with numerical simulations, this study shows that long-range membrane-mediated interactions in phase-separating proteins alter equilibrium states, driving pattern formation instead of simple phase separation. This work provides a systematic framework for describing phase-separation dynamics on membranes modulated by protein density.

Statistical mechanics of multiplectoneme phases in DNA

Midas Segers, Enrico Skoruppa, Helmut Schiessel, and Enrico Carlon

Phys. Rev. E 111, 044408 (2025) - Published 17 April, 2025

Stretched supercoiled DNA undergoes a buckling transition, forming intertwined looped domains called plectonemes. Supercoiling of DNA is important for a number of biological processes, such as the regulation of gene expression. This paper reports a detailed study of the statistical mechanics of stretched supercoiled DNA that allows for multiple plectonemic domains. The authors study this phenomenon in the context of magnetic tweezers, a common tool for experimental studies. They develop a simple two-phase model that can provide an understanding of experimental findings.

Data augmentation using diffusion models to enhance inverse Ising inference

Yechan Lim, Sangwon Lee, and Junghyo Jo

Phys. Rev. E 111, 045302 (2025) - Published 9 April, 2025

In the context of generative machine learning, diffusion models, inspired by principles of statistical mechanics, have shown exceptional capability in representing data probability distributions. This study demonstrates that diffusion models can effectively learn sample distributions and generate new samples that closely resemble the observed data. The work highlights a promising new avenue where machine learning models can contribute to solving complex problems in physics.

Unified theoretical framework for wide neural network learning dynamics

Yehonatan Avidan, Qianyi Li, and Haim Sompolinsky

Phys. Rev. E 111, 045310 (2025) - Published 29 April, 2025

Drawing upon methods from out-of-equilibrium statistical mechanics, the authors develop an exact analytical theory of learning dynamics in wide deep neural networks, unifying two previously disparate approaches: the Neural Tangent Kernel and the Neural Network Gaussian Process. They arrive at a novel time-dependent kernel, the Neural Dynamical Kernel. They identify two distinct learning phases, one characterized by deterministic minimization of the training error, followed by stochastic exploration of the solution subspace, ultimately converging to Gibbs equilibrium. The results reveal the mechanisms that enable neural networks to maintain robust performance despite noise.

Stretching semiflexible polymers: Gibbs versus Helmholtz ensembles

Nigel T. Andersen and Jeff Z. Y. Chen

Phys. Rev. E 111, 045402 (2025) - Published 1 April, 2025

Stretching experiments have long been used to investigate the physical properties of single polymers and biopolymers by measuring their response to end-to-end separation. Despite decades of experimental and simulation data, a unifying theoretical framework remains elusive. This paper provides a universal perspective, revealing that for semiflexible polymers like DNA, all such data collapse onto two fundamental scaling curves.

Speeding the directed self-assembly under toggled magnetic fields

Guillermo Camacho and Juan de Vicente

Phys. Rev. E 111, 045414 (2025) - Published 15 April, 2025

In magnetorheological fluids, phase separation kinetics can be dramatically accelerated using high-field magnetic pulses. This study reports on directed self-assembly under toggled uniaxial fields. The authors investigate the influence of the frequency and strength of the magnetic field, focusing on the strong field regime and reveal hitherto unknown coarsening mechanisms and final states. The experimental results are complemented by simulation insights. Overall, the study highlights that strong toggled fields dramatically accelerate self-assembly.

Athermal tricriticality

Mauro Sellitto

Phys. Rev. E 111, L042101 (2025) - Published 7 April, 2025

It is well known that phase transitions can be driven by entropy alone, without involving temperature, but an interesting question is what other types of critical behavior can be found in such athermal systems. This Letter shows that a tricritical point can be realized in a monodisperse lattice gas with only excluded volume interactions.
