The quantum-statistical properties of the radiation emitted from two coupled cavities containing one or two two-level atoms are discussed, and both configurations are compared. The results concerning stationary photon statistics, photon blocking, squeezing ...
This is an overview of a program of stochastic deformation of the mathematical tools of classical mechanics, in the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian approaches. It can also be regarded as a stochastic version of Geometric Mechanics.The main idea is to construct ...
In this work we study thermal leptogenesis using nonequilibrium quantum field theory. Starting from fundamental equations for correlators of the quantum fields we describe the steps necessary to obtain quantum-kinetic equations for quasiparticles. These ca ...
This paper is concerned with the eigenvalue decay of the solution to operator Lyapunov equations with right-hand sides of finite rank. We show that the kth (generalized) eigenvalue decays exponentially in root k, provided that the involved operator A gener ...
We prove trace inequalities for a self-adjoint operator on an abstract Hilbert space, which extend those known previously for Laplacians and Schrodinger operators, freeing them from restrictive assumptions on the nature of the spectrum and allowing operato ...
Including quantum mechanical effects on the dynamics of nuclei in the condensed phase is challenging, because the complexity of exact methods grows exponentially with the number of quantum degrees of freedom. Efforts to circumvent these limitations can be ...
We prove, in a purely combinatorial way, the spectral curve topological recursion for the problem of enumeration of bi-colored maps, which in a certain way generalize the notion of dessins d'enfant. Furthermore, we give a proof of the quantum spectral curv ...
We consider the canonical quantization of an ordinary fluid. The resulting long-distance effective field theory is derivatively coupled, and therefore strongly coupled in the UV. The system however exhibits a number of peculiarities, associated with the vo ...
A well-defined silica-based material with a homogeneous nanolayer presenting identical pairs of vicinal silanols has been prepared by reaction of the surface organometallic species[ SiOZr(CH2CMe3)(3)], obtained on a silica dehydroxylated at 900 degrees C, ...
The non-relativistic quantum dynamics of nuclei and electrons is solved within the framework of quantum hydrodynamics using the adiabatic representation of the electronic states. An on-the-fly trajectory-based nonadiabatic molecular dynamics algorithm is d ...
