**About the Special Issue Editors**

**R ´obert Kov´acs** graduated with a degree in Mechanical Engineering in 2015 before attaining his Ph.D. in 2017 from Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME) in collaboration with the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. He is currently working on continuum thermodynamics, both experimental and theoretical problems, including the development of numerical schemes, analytical solutions of evolution equations, and other mathematical aspects. He has been a Visiting Researcher at Northeastern University, MA, USA; Messina University, Sicily, Italy; and Universite du Qu ´ ebec ´ a` Chicoutimi, Quebec, Canada. ´

**Antonio M. Scarfone** is a theoretical physics researcher working mainly in the field of statistical mechanics. He graduated from University of Torino in 1996 and completed his Ph.D. in Physics at Politecnico of Torino in 2000. He has been a Postdoctoral Researcher at INFM (2000–2002) and received a Research Fellowship at the University of Cagliari in 2003. Since 2004, he has carried out research activities at CNR-ISC based in Politecnico of Torino. To date, he has authored approximately 100 scientific papers published in international journals on the topics of statistical mechanics, kinetic theory, geometry information, nonlinear classical and quantum dynamics, and noncommutative algebras. He is Editor-in-Chief of the Section Statistical Physics of *Entropy*, a member of the Editorial Board of *Advances in Mathematical Physics*, and belongs to the advisory panel of *Journal of Physics A*. Finally, he is one of the organizers of the SigmaPhi international conference series that has been held every three years starting from 2005.

**Sumiyoshi Abe** has recently been serving as Full Professor at Mie University in Japan until March 2020. Currently, he is a Visiting Professor at Huaqiao University in China, Kazan Federal University in Russia, Turin Polytechnic University in Tashkent in Uzbekistan, and ESIEA in France.
