This paper deals with the design of a nonequilibrium statistical mechanics theory developed to model large systems of interacting individuals. Interactions being ruled, not only by laws of classical mechanics, but also by some intelligent or organized behaviour. The paper technically shows, also by reasoning on specific examples, how the theory can be applied to model large complex systems in natural and applied sciences.

This paper deals with the derivation of hybrid mathematical structures to describe the behavior of large systems of active particles by ordinary differential equations with stochastic coefficients whose evolution is modelled by equations of the mathematical kinetic theory. A preliminary analysis shows how the above tools can be used to model complex systems of interest in applied sciences, with special attention to the immune competition.

This paper deals with the development of new paradigms based on the methods of the mathematical kinetic theory for active particles to model the dynamics of large systems of interacting cells. Interactions are ruled, not only by laws of classical mechanics, but also by a few biological functions which are able to modify the above laws. The paper technically shows, also by reasoning on specific examples, how the theory can be applied to model large complex systems in biology. The last part of the paper deals with a critical analysis and with the indication of research perspectives concerning the challenging target of developing a biological-mathematical theory for the living matter.

A class of generalized definitions of expectation value is often employed in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics for complex systems. Here, the necessary and sufficient condition is presented for such a class to be stable under small deformations of a given arbitrary probability distribution.

This paper deals with the modeling and simulation of swarms viewed as a living, hence complex, system. The approach is based on methods of kinetic theory and statistical mechanics, where interactions at the microscopic scale are nonlinearly additive and modeled by stochastic games.

This paper develops a variety of mathematical tools to model the dynamics of large systems of interacting cells. Interactions are ruled not only by laws of classical mechanics, but also by some biological functions. The mathematical approach is the one of kinetic theory and non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. The paper deals both with the derivation of evolution equations and with the design of specific models consistent with the above-mentioned mathematical framework. Various hints for research perspectives are proposed in the last part of the paper.
