What was your favorite toy growing up? This paradox claims that memory—and every other one—is just a random fluctuation.
Was an incredible drop in entropy responsible for the Big Bang? If that’s the case, this w Was an incredible drop in entropy responsible for the Big Bang? If that’s the case, this would lead us to ...
In a recent paper, SFI Professor David Wolpert, SFI Fractal Faculty member Carlo Rovelli, and physicist Jordan Scharnhorst examine a longstanding, paradoxical thought experiment in statistical physics ...
To many physicists, “Tsallis entropy” has been a revolution in statistical mechanics. To others, it is merely a useful fitting technique. Jon Cartwright tries to make sense of this world of disorder. ...
TRUST your senses. Any theory that lets bizarre brains randomly pop into existence can’t be a valid description of the universe. That might seem obvious, but such conscious observers, called Boltzmann ...
Explore the Boltzmann Brain paradox and its challenge to entropy-driven explanations of our universe's structure and arrow of time. The Boltzmann Brain paradox is an argument against the idea that the ...

Deep learning method enables efficient Boltzmann distribution sampling across a continuous temperature range
A research team has developed a novel direct sampling method based on deep generative models. Their method enables efficient sampling of the Boltzmann distribution across a continuous temperature ...
