This third edition of Statistical Physics of Complex Systems has
been expanded to provide more examples of applications of concepts
and methods from statistical physics to the modeling of complex
systems. These include avalanche dynamics in materials, models of
social agents like road traffic or wealth repartition, the real
space aspects of biological evolution dynamics, propagation
phenomena on complex networks, formal neural networks and their
connection to constraint satisfaction problems. This course-tested
textbook provides graduate students and non-specialists with a
basic understanding of the concepts and methods of statistical
physics and demonstrates their wide range of applications to
interdisciplinary topics in the field of complex system sciences,
including selected aspects of theoretical modeling in biology and
the social sciences. It covers topics such as non-conserved
particles, evolutionary population dynamics, networks, properties
of both individual and coupled simple dynamical systems, and
convergence theorems, as well as short appendices that offer
helpful hints on how to perform simple stochastic simulations in
practice. The original spirit of the book is to remain accessible
to a broad, non-specialized readership. The format is a set of
concise, modular, and self-contained topical chapters, avoiding
technicalities and jargon as much as possible, and complemented by
a wealth of worked-out examples, so as to make this work useful as
a self-study text or as textbook for short courses.
