Explore the statistical physics principles governing growing systems in this 56-minute conference talk delivered at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into the mathematical frameworks used to understand how biological and physical systems evolve and expand over time, examining the statistical mechanics underlying growth processes. Learn about the theoretical approaches that connect microscopic interactions to macroscopic growth patterns, including scaling laws, fluctuations, and phase transitions in growing systems. Discover how statistical physics concepts apply to diverse growing systems ranging from biological populations to physical structures, and understand the role of randomness and deterministic forces in shaping growth dynamics. Gain insights into current research methodologies and analytical techniques used to model and predict the behavior of complex growing systems across different scales and contexts.
