Physical And Relational Networks In The
Aegean Bronze Age
• Tim Evans, Ray Rivers, Carl Knappett
Description
In this paper we present a new interdisciplinary perspective on regional interaction patterns in
archaeological contexts. It combines insights from graph theory, social network analysis and
statistical physics to treat the interactions between sites in geographical space in terms of a network
which minimises an associated Hamiltonian. To explore the various issues involved a case study
from a heterogeneous physical environment is chosen, the archipelago environment of the
southernAegean, in particular the rich dataset of the Aegean Bronze Age. Our findings are of
broader relevance for the study of interaction networks, as the use of statistical physics in this
fashion represents a novel application in social science contexts.

Monte Carlo simulation of classical spin
models with chaotic billiards
Hideyuki Suzuki
Description
It has recently been shown that the computing abilities of Boltzmann machines, or Ising spin-glass
models, can be implemented by chaotic billiard dynamics without any use of random numbers. In
this paper, we further numerically investigate the capabilities of the chaotic billiard dynamics as a
deterministic alternative to random Monte Carlo methods by applying it to classical spin models in
