We consider a classical system of point particles interacting by means of a short range potential. We prove that, in the low--density (Boltzmann--Grad) limit, the system behaves, for short times, as predicted by the associated Boltzmann…
We study heat transport in a chain of harmonic oscillators with random elastic collisions between nearest-neighbours. The equations of motion of the covariance matrix are numerically solved for free and fixed boundary conditions. In the…
The transport coefficients of a dilute gas of inelastic hard spheres immersed in a molecular gas are determined. We assume that the number density of the granular gas is much smaller than that of the surrounding molecular gas, so that the…
We derive the classical transport equation, in scalar field theory with a V(phi) interaction, from the equation of motion for the quantum field. We obtain a very simple, but iterative, expression for the effective action which generates all…
For charged particle transport the linear Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) turns out to be a partial hyper-singular integro-differential operator. This is due to the fact that the related differential cross-sections…
The statistics of the condensed polaritons is described in terms of the Wigner function. In the framework of the truncated Wigner method, the Wigner function obeys a Fokker- Planck equation, which is solved analytically. The second order…
The time-evolution operator for the kicked Harper model is reduced to block matrix form when the effective Planck's constant hbar = 2 pi M/N and M and N are integers. Each block matrix is spanned by an orthonormal set of N "kq"…
We construct a matrix-valued spin-dependent distribution function (MVSD) for massive spin-1/2 fermions and study its properties under Lorentz transformations. Such transformations result in a Wigner rotation in spin space and in a…
Within a Lagrangian formalism we derive the time-dependent Gutzwiller approximation for general multi-band Hubbard models. Our approach explicitly incorporates the coupling between time-dependent variational parameters and a time-dependent…
Sutherland showed that the XYZ quantum spin-chain Hamiltonian commutes with the eight-vertex model transfer matrix, so that Baxter's subsequent tour de force proves the integrability of both. The proof requires parametrising the Boltzmann…
Supplementing the Heisenberg model with a Hubbard-commuting kinetic of electrons adds to its spectrum without interference. One consequence is the precise incorporation of canonical linear spin wave theory within the time-dependent…
We exhibit some arguments in favour of an H-theorem for a generalization of the Boltzmann equation including non-conservative interactions and a linear Fokker-Planck-like thermostatting term. Such a non-linear equation describing the…
The homogeneous Boltzmann equation for inelastic Maxwell mixtures is considered to study the dynamics of tracer particles or impurities (solvent) immersed in a uniform granular gas (solute). The analysis is based on exact results derived…

We consider the non-equilibrium time evolution of piecewise homogeneous states in the XXZ spin-1/2 chain, a paradigmatic example of an interacting integrable model. The initial state can be thought as the result of joining chains with…
