ISBN10: 9814374784, ISBN13: 9789814374781, [publisher: World Scientific Publishing Company] Hardcover nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book aims to provide a compact and unified introduction to the most important aspects in the physics of non-equilibrium systems. Structured into three parts, the first of which introduces stochastic processes and some modern tools and concepts that have proved their usefulness to deal with non-equilibrium systems from a purely probabilistic angle. The aim is to show the important role played by fluctuations in far-from-equilibrium situations, where noise can promote order and organization, switching among non-equilibrium states, etc. The second part adopts a more historical perspective, retracing the first steps taken from the purely thermodynamic as well as from the kinetic points of view to depart (albeit slightly) from equilibrium. The third part revisits the path outlined in the first one, but now undertakes the mesoscopic description of extended systems, where new phenomena (patterns, long-range correlations, scaling far from equilibrium, etc.) are observed.
