This book explores Probabilistic Cellular Automata (PCA) from the perspectives of statistical mechanics, probability theory, computational biology and computer science. PCA are extensions of the well-known Cellular Automata models of complex systems, characterized by random updating rules. Thanks to their probabilistic component, PCA offer flexible computing tools for complex numerical constructions, and realistic simulation tools for phenomena driven by interactions among a large number of neighboring structures. PCA are currently being used in various fields, ranging from pure probability to the social sciences and including a wealth of scientific and technological applications. This situa...
Polymer chains that interact with themselves and/or their environment display a range of physical and chemical phenomena. This text focuses on the mathematical description of some of these phenomena, offering a mathematical panorama of polymer chains.

Opening to passion as an unsettling, transformative force; extending desire to the text, expanding the self, and dissolving its boundaries; imagining pleasures outside the norm and intensifying them; overcoming loss and reaching beyond death; being loyal to oneself and defying productivity, resolution, and cohesion while embracing paradox, non-linearity, incompletion. These are some of the possibilities of lyric that this book explores by reading Petrarch’s vernacular poetry in dialogue with that of other poets, including Guido Cavalcanti, Dante, and Shakespeare. In the Epilogue, the poet Antonella Anedda Angioy engages with Ossip Mandel’štam and Paul Celan’s dialogue with Petrarch and extends it into the present.
Il volume Florentia. Studi di archeologia: vol. 5 - Numero speciale - Studi in onore di Guido Vanniniè un tributo alla carriera e agli straordinari contributi del professor Guido Vannini, già docente dell’Università di Firenze, Direttore della Scuola di Specializzazione in Beni Archeologici, oltre che fondatore della Cattedra di Archeologia Medievale e della Missione Archeologica Italiana “Petra Medievale” in Giordania. Il volume raccoglie saggi di amici, allievi e colleghi che offrono una riflessione interdisciplinare sui temi dell’archeologia medievale e non solo, spaziando dall’epigrafia alla ricostruzione di paesaggi storici, dall’archeozoologia all’analisi dei processi di urbanizzazione e cristianizzazione, rendendo omaggio all’ampiezza e alla profondità dell’impegno e delle ispirazioni pionieristiche di Vannini nel campo degli studi archeologici, in Italia e all’estero.
