GENERAL OBJECTIVES:
The goal of the course is the study of the foundations of the
statistical mechanics
of non equilibrium systems, with special enphasis on stochastic
models (e.q. Langevin equations)
i) to provide the student with a deep knowledge and understanding of
these
concepts, and
ii) to allow him (her) to successfully apply them in various physical
contexts. In particular, the student must be able to
use techniques of integration in the complex domain in all the
physical contexts in which they have applications.


SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES:

A - Knowledge and understanding
- To know the basis of the kinetic theory
- To understand how to use stochastic processes

B - Application skills
- To know the theory of fluctuations and the linear response

C - Autonomy of judgment
- To be able to integrate the knowledge acquired in order to apply it in
the more general context of statistical mechanics

E - Ability to learn
- To be able to read independently scientific texts and articles in
order to elaborate on the topics introduced in the course.
