We study properties of entangled systems in the (mainly non-relativistic) second quantization formalism. This is then applied to interacting and non-interacting bosons and fermions and the differences between the two are discussed. We…
We study Bose-Einstein condensation phenomenon in a two-dimensional (2D) system of bosons subjected to an harmonic oscillator type confining potential. The interaction among the 2D bosons is described by a delta-function in configuration…
We characterize the zero-temperature limits of minimal free energy states for interacting corpora -- that is, for objects with finitely many degrees of freedom, such as articulated rods. These limits are measures supported on…
Continuous and discrete superselection rules induced by the interaction with the environment are investigated for a class of exactly soluble Hamiltonian models. The environment is given by a Boson field. Stable superselection sectors emerge…
We study a system of penetrable bosons on a line, focusing on the high-density/weak-interaction regime, where the ground state is, to a good approximation, a condensate. Under compression, the system clusterizes at zero temperature, i.e.,…
We discuss the influence of a zero-temperature environment on a coherent quantum system. First, we calculate the reduced density operator of the system in the framework of the well-known, exactly solvable model of an oscillator coupled to a…
Occupation numbers for non-relativistic interacting particles are discussed within a functional integral formulation. We concentrate on zero temperature, where the Bogoliubov theory breaks down for strong couplings as well as for low…
We have investigated the correlation functions of interacting bosons at the generic superfluid-insulator transition, a prototypical quantum phase transition, in two dimensions in the spherical limit. Unexpectedly the spatial correlation…
The functional renormalisation group (FRG) approach is employed to study Bose polarons at finite temperatures in the regime of strong attractive bath-impurity interactions. Both two- and three-dimensional configurations are considered. The…
Quantum fluctuations play a central role in the properties of quantum matter. In non-interacting ensembles, they manifest as fluctuations of non-commuting observables, quantified by Heisenberg inequalities. In the presence of interactions,…
These lectures are centered around a specific problem, the effect of weak repulsive interactions on the transition temperature $T_c$ of a Bose gas. This problem provides indeed a beautiful illustration of many of the techniques which have…
We study the spin--boson model with a sub--Ohmic bath using infinitesimal unitary transformations. Contrary to some results reported in the literature we find a zero temperature transition from an untrapped state for small coupling to a…
We study mixtures of spinless bosons and not spin-polarized fermions loaded in two dimensional optical lattices. We approach the problem of the ground state stability within the framework of the linear response theory; by the mean of an…
Inflationary correlation functions are potentially affected by infrared divergences. For example, the two-point correlator of curvature perturbation at momentum k receives corrections ~ln(kL), where L is the size of the region in which the…
We provide an overview of the effects of interactions in Bose-condensed gases. We focus on phenomena that have been explored in ultracold atom experiments, covering both tuneable contact interactions and dipolar interactions. Our discussion…
The theory of correlated electrons is currently moving beyond the paradigmatic Hubbard $U$, towards the investigation of intersite Coulomb interactions. Recent investigations have revealed that these interactions are relevant for the…
Motivated by recent experiments we derive an exact expression for the correlation function entering the three-body recombination rate for a one-dimensional gas of interacting bosons. The answer, given in terms of two thermodynamic…
In the present paper, discussion of the canonical quantization of a weakly nonideal Bose gas at zero temperature within the framework of the Bogolyubov approach is continued. Contrary to the previous paper on this subject, here the two-body…
We develop a theory of non-relativistic bosons in two spatial dimensions with a weak short range attractive interaction. In the limit as the range of the interaction becomes small, there is an ultra-violet divergence in the problem. We…
