Toy quantum mechanics using hidden variables.
We provide a general lower bound on the dynamics of one dimensional Schrödinger operators in terms of transfer matrices. In particular it yields a non trivial lower bound on the transport exponents as soon as the norm of transfer matrices does not grow faster than polynomially on a set of energies of full Lebesgue measure, and regardless of the nature of the spectrum. Applications to Hamiltonians with a) sparse, b) quasi-periodic, c) random decaying potential are provided....
Numerical solution of linear boundary value problems for ordinary differential equations by the method of transfer of conditions consists in replacing the problem under consideration by a sequence of initial value problems. The method of transfer for systems of equations of the first order with Lebesque integrable coefficients was studied by one of the authors before. The purpose of this paper is to extend the idea of the transfer of conditions to singular boundary value problems for a linear second-order...
We describe a completely algebraic axiom system for intertwining operators of vertex algebra modules, using algebraic flat connections, thus formulating the concept of a tree algebra. Using the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence, we further prove that a vertex tensor category in the sense of Huang and Lepowsky gives rise to a tree algebra over . We also show that the chiral WZW model of a simply connected simple compact Lie group gives rise to a tree algebra over .
We survey some of the universality properties of the Riemann zeta function and then explain how to obtain a natural quantization of Voronin’s universality theorem (and of its various extensions). Our work builds on the theory of complex fractal dimensions for fractal strings developed by the second author and M. van Frankenhuijsen in [60]. It also makes an essential use of the functional analytic framework developed by the authors in [25] for rigorously studying the spectral operator (mapping...
We study low lying eigenvalues for non-selfadjoint semiclassical differential operators, where symmetries play an important role. In the case of the Kramers-Fokker-Planck operator, we show how the presence of certain supersymmetric and -symmetric structures leads to precise results concerning the reality and the size of the exponentially small eigenvalues in the semiclassical (here the low temperature) limit. This analysis also applies sometimes to chains of oscillators coupled to two heat baths,...
Connes and Moscovici recently studied "twisted" spectral triples (A,H,D) in which the commutators [D,a] are replaced by D∘a - σ(a)∘D, where σ is a second representation of A on H. The aim of this note is to point out that this yields representations of arbitrary covariant differential calculi over Hopf algebras in the sense of Woronowicz. For compact quantum groups, H can be completed to a Hilbert space and the calculus is given by bounded operators. At the end, we discuss an explicit example of...
