In high dimensions, reflective Hamiltonian Monte Carlo with inexact reflections exhibits slow mixing when the particle ensemble is initialised from a Dirac delta distribution and the uniform distribution is targeted. By quantifying the…

A distorted-wave version of the renormalisation group is applied to scattering by an inverse-square potential and to three-body systems. In attractive three-body systems, the short-distance wave function satisfies a Schroedinger equation…
The statistical properties of a Hamiltonian $H_0$ perturbed by a localized scatterer are considered. We prove that when $H_0$ describes a bounded chaotic motion, the universal part of the spectral statistics are not changed by the…

We study the homogenization of first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, motivated by systems of infinitely many indistinguishable particles on the torus. A central difficulty is that the analysis takes…
In [1] we gave a precise holographic calculation of chaos at the scrambling time scale. We studied the influence of a small perturbation, long in the past, on a two-sided correlation function in the thermofield double state. A similar…
We compute the strengths of zero-th order (in eccentricity) three-body resonances for a co-planar and low eccentricity multiple planet system. In a numerical integration we illustrate that slowly moving Laplace angles are matched by…
We study the statistical distribution of components in the non-perturbative parts of energy eigenfunctions (EFs), in which main bodies of the EFs lie. Our numerical simulations in five models show that deviation of the distribution from the…
We study the late-time dynamics of two particles confined in one spatial dimension and subject to two-body losses. The dynamics is exactly described by a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian that can be analytically studied both in the continuum and…
We consider the problem of $n$ points with positive masses interacting pairwise with forces inversely proportional to the distance between them. In particular, it is the classical gravitational, Coulomb or photo-gravitational $n$-body…
The energy level spacing distribution of a tight-binding hamiltonian is monitored across the mobility edge for a fixed disorder strength. Any mixing of extended and localized levels is avoided in the configurational averages, thus…
The analogy between the intermittency and scaling in statistical physics is extended to the case of more variables. It is shown that the inclusive densities predicted by the perturbative QCD obey generalized homogeneity principle which…
Structures such as waves, jets, and vortices have a dramatic impact on the transport properties of a flow. Passive tracer transport in incompressible two-dimensional flows is described by Hamiltonian dynamics, and, for idealized structures,…
While second-order phase transitions always cause strong non-local fluctuations, their effect on spectral properties crucially depends on the dimensionality. For the important case of three dimensions, we show that the electron self-energy…
We introduce a family of Hamiltonian systems for measurement-based quantum computation with continuous variables. The Hamiltonians (i) are quadratic, and therefore two body, (ii) are of short range, (iii) are frustration-free, and (iv)…
