(3/3) The methods are useful for handling chemical systems but also have applications in a wide range of areas such as ecology and epidemiology.
(2/3) or particles with the environment. These systems can be modeled as stochastic reaction-diffusion systems. In this pedagogical review, the authors apply powerful field-theoretic methods to these systems, unifying diverse approaches under a single framework.
(1/3) The exchange of energy and molecules in a living cell, the spread of opinions through a society, and the flow of traffic in a crowded city are very different phenomena, yet they are all examples of complex systems composed of many agents that interact with each other and exchange energy
New DIEP publication!
“Field theories and quantum methods for stochastic reaction-diffusion systems” was published in Reviews of Modern Physics.
