MIT Open Access Articles

The MIT Open Access Articles collection consists of scholarly articles written by MIT-affiliated authors that are made available through DSpace@MIT under the MIT Faculty Open Access Policy, or under related publisher agreements. Articles in this collection generally reflect changes made during peer-review.

Version details are supplied for each paper in the collection:

  • Original manuscript: author's manuscript prior to formal peer review
  • Author's final manuscript: final author's manuscript post peer review, without publisher's formatting or copy editing
  • Final published version: final published article, as it appeared in a journal, conference proceedings, or other formally published context (this version appears here only if allowable under publisher's policy)

Some peer-reviewed scholarly articles are available through other DSpace@MIT collections, such as those for departments, labs, and centers.

If you are an MIT community member who wants to deposit an article into the this collection, you will need to log in to do so. If you don't have an account, please contact us.

  • Quantum Entropy Thermalization 

    Huang, Yichen; Harrow, Aram W. (Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2025-05-21)
    In an isolated quantum many-body system undergoing unitary evolution, the entropy of a subsystem (smaller than half the system size) thermalizes if at long times, it is to leading order equal to the thermodynamic entropy ...

  • Continuous Maximum Coverage Location Problem with Arbitrary Shape of Service Areas and Regional Demand 

    Yakovlev, Sergiy; Shekhovtsov, Sergiy; Kirichenko, Lyudmyla; Matsyi, Olha; Podzeha, Dmytro; e.a. (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2025-04-29)
    This paper addresses the maximum coverage location problem in a generalized setting, where both facilities (service areas) and regional demand are modeled as continuous entities. Unlike traditional formulations, our approach ...

  • Deep-time history of primate behavior and ecology as revealed by ancestral state reconstructions 

    Spear, Jeffrey K.; Hoffman, Eva A.; Miyamae, Juri A.; Whalen, Christopher D.; Arre, Alyssa M.; e.a. (Springer US, 2025-05-24)
    Primates exhibit many key behavioral traits that differentiate them from their mammalian relatives. The origin and evolution of these traits is a major focus of primate paleontology. Here, we perform a formal ancestral ...
