Optimal Holomorphic Hypercontractivity for CAR Algebras

Ilona Królak (2010)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

We present a new proof of Janson’s strong hypercontractivity inequality for the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup in holomorphic algebras associated with CAR (canonical anticommutation relations) algebras. In the one generator case we calculate optimal bounds for t such that U t is a contraction as a map L ( ) L p ( ) for arbitrary p ≥ 2. We also prove a logarithmic Sobolev inequality.

Positive energy quantization of linear dynamics

Jan Dereziński, Christian Gérard (2010)

Banach Center Publications

The abstract mathematical structure behind the positive energy quantization of linear classical systems is described. It is separated into three stages: the description of a classical system, the algebraic quantization and the Hilbert space quantization. Four kinds of systems are distinguished: neutral bosonic, neutral bosonic, charged bosonic and charged fermionic. The formalism that is described follows closely the usual constructions employed in quantum physics to introduce noninteracting quantum...

Properties of non-hermitian quantum field theories

Carl M. Bender (2003)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In this paper I discuss quantum systems whose Hamiltonians are non-Hermitian but whose energy levels are all real and positive. Such theories are required to be symmetric under 𝒞 𝒫 𝒯 , but not symmetric under 𝒫 and 𝒯 separately. Recently, quantum mechanical systems having such properties have been investigated in detail. In this paper I extend the results to quantum field theories. Among the systems that I discuss are - φ 4 and i φ 3 theories. These theories all have unexpected and remarkable properties. I discuss...
