A geometric derivation of the linear Boltzmann equation for a particle interacting with a Gaussian random field, using a Fock space approach

Sébastien Breteaux (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In this article the linear Boltzmann equation is derived for a particle interacting with a Gaussian random field, in the weak coupling limit, with renewal in time of the random field. The initial data can be chosen arbitrarily. The proof is geometric and involves coherent states and semi-classical calculus.

A Lieb-Thirring bound for a magnetic Pauli Hamiltonian (II).

Luca Bugliaro, Charles L. Fefferman, Gian Michele Graf (1999)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

We establish a Lieb-Thirring type estimate for Pauli Hamiltonians with non-homogeneous magnetic fields. Besides of depending on the size of the field, the bound also takes into account the size of the field gradient. We then apply the inequality to prove stability of non-relativistic quantum mechanical matter coupled to the quantized ultraviolet-cutoff electromagnetic field for arbitrary values of the fine structure constant.

A mathematical introduction to the Wigner formulation of quantum mechanics

Luigi Barletti (2003)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

The paper is devoted to review, from a mathematical point of view, some fundamental aspects of the Wigner formulation of quantum mechanics. Starting from the axioms of quantum mechanics and of quantum statistics, we justify the introduction of the Wigner transform and eventually deduce the Wigner equation.

A Maxwell-Bloch model with discrete symmetries for wave propagation in nonlinear crystals : an application to KDP

Christophe Besse, Brigitte Bidégaray-Fesquet, Antoine Bourgeade, Pierre Degond, Olivier Saut (2004)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

This article presents the derivation of a semi-classical model of electromagnetic-wave propagation in a non centro-symmetric crystal. It consists of Maxwell’s equations for the wave field coupled with a version of Bloch’s equations which takes fully into account the discrete symmetry group of the crystal. The model is specialized in the case of a KDP crystal for which information about the dipolar moments at the Bloch level can be recovered from the macroscopic dispersion properties of the material....

A Maxwell-Bloch model with discrete symmetries for wave propagation in nonlinear crystals: an application to KDP

A measure-theoretic characterization of Boolean algebras among orthomodular lattices

Pavel Pták, Sylvia Pulmannová (1994)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We investigate subadditive measures on orthomodular lattices. We show as the main result that an orthomodular lattice has to be distributive (=Boolean) if it possesses a unital set of subadditive probability measures. This result may find an application in the foundation of quantum theories, mathematical logic, or elsewhere.

A new approach to Hom-left-symmetric bialgebras

Qinxiu Sun, Qiong Lou, Hongliang Li (2021)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The main purpose of this paper is to consider a new definition of Hom-left-symmetric bialgebra. The coboundary Hom-left-symmetric bialgebra is also studied. In particular, we give a necessary and sufficient condition that s -matrix is a solution of the Hom- S -equation by a cocycle condition.
