Cascades of Scales: Applications and Mathematical Methodologies

This issue collects reviews and research articles addressing real-life phenomena involving cascades of interacting scales and related methodological developments, emphasizing applications from the biomolecular, material, chemical/polymere, atmospheric, and geophysical sciences. Of particular interest are mathematical concepts and methodologies which are transferable to a generalized framework by mathematical abstraction, and have led to related computational implementations. Contributions to this collection will explain relations between the pertinent application-oriented domain-specific languages and the complementary unifying abstract mathematical language that enables the generalization of methodologies to other fields. Thus, the themed issue showcases the strength of Mathematical Physics in providing theoretically well-founded solutions to challenging application problems by leveraging interactions between the abstract mathematical and the concrete physical perspectives.
