Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Grégoire Nicolis is best known for:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Quantum mechanics
  • Differential equation

In his study, Detailed balance and Entropy production is strongly linked to Statistical physics, which falls under the umbrella field of Autocatalytic reaction. His multidisciplinary approach integrates Entropy production and Non-equilibrium thermodynamics in his work. Within the field of Fluctuation theorem, Extended irreversible thermodynamics and Equilibrium thermodynamics he studies Non-equilibrium thermodynamics. In his work, Grégoire Nicolis performs multidisciplinary research in Extended irreversible thermodynamics and Thermodynamic equilibrium. While working in this field, he studies both Thermodynamic equilibrium and Equilibrium thermodynamics. He bridges between several scientific fields such as Stochastic process, Markov process and Probabilistic logic in his study of Statistics. He undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Stochastic process and Statistics in his work. In his papers, he integrates diverse fields, such as Markov process and Master equation. He performs multidisciplinary studies into Probabilistic logic and Artificial intelligence in his work.

His most cited work include:

  • Periodically forced Fokker-Planck equation and stochastic resonance (188 citations)
  • Stochastic aspects of climatic transitions–Additive fluctuations (183 citations)
  • Chemical oscillations (163 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date

In his works, Grégoire Nicolis undertakes multidisciplinary study on Statistical physics and Classical mechanics. Classical mechanics and Statistical physics are two areas of study in which he engages in interdisciplinary research. He merges Quantum mechanics with Mechanics in his study. Borrowing concepts from Quantum mechanics, he weaves in ideas under Mechanics. He performs integrative study on Thermodynamics and Non-equilibrium thermodynamics. He conducted interdisciplinary study in his works that combined Non-equilibrium thermodynamics and Thermodynamics. He integrates Mathematical analysis with Applied mathematics in his study. He performs integrative Applied mathematics and Mathematical analysis research in his work. His Bifurcation research extends to Nonlinear system, which is thematically connected.
