In sustained growth with random dynamics stationary distributions can exist without detailed balance. This suggests thermodynamical behavior in fast-growing complex systems. In order to model such phenomena we apply both a discrete and a continuous master equation. The derivation of elementary rates from known stationary distributions is a generalization of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. Entropic distance evolution is given for such systems. We reconstruct distributions obtained for growing networks, particle production, scientific citations, and income distribution.

A kinetic exchange model is developed to investigate wealth distribution in a market. The model incorporates a value function that captures the agents' psychological traits, governing their wealth allocation based on behavioral responses to perceived potential losses and returns. To account for the impact of transaction frequency on wealth dynamics, a non-Maxwellian collision kernel is introduced.

Non-stationary multi-armed bandit (MAB) problems have recently attracted extensive attention. We focus on the abruptly changing scenario where reward distributions remain constant for a certain period and change at unknown time steps. Although Thompson sampling (TS) has shown success in non-stationary settings, there is currently no regret bound analysis for TS with uninformative priors.

During batch fermentation, a variety of compounds are synthesized, as microorganisms undergo distinct growth phases: lag, exponential, growth-no-growth transition, stationary, and decay. A detailed understanding of the metabolic pathways involved in these phases is crucial for optimizing the production of target compounds. Dynamic flux balance analysis (dFBA) offers insight into the dynamics of metabolic pathways.

This work introduces the Adsorption Energy Distribution (AED) calculation using competitive adsorption isotherm data, enabling investigation of the simultaneous AED of two components for the first time. The AED provides crucial insights by visualizing competitive adsorption processes, offering an alternative adsorption isotherm model without prior assuming adsorption heterogeneity, and assisting in model selection for more accurate retention mechanistic modeling. The competitive AED enhances our understanding of multicomponent interactions on stationary phases, which is crucial for understanding how analytes compete on the stationary phase surface and for selecting adsorption models for numerical optimization of preparative chromatography.

Background: Estimates of tick abundance and distribution are used to determine the risk of tick-host contact. Tick surveys provide estimates of distributions and relative abundance for species that remain stationary and wait for passing hosts (i.e.
