It is well-known that equilibrium measures for uniformly hyperbolic dynamical systems have a local product structure, which plays an important role in their mixing properties. Existing proofs of this fact rely either on transfer operators…
We analyze the validity of the adiabatic approximation, and in particular the reliability of what has been called the "standard criterion" for validity of this approximation. Recently, this criterion has been found to be insufficient. We…
The evolution of a driven quantum system is said to be adiabatic whenever the state of the system stays close to an instantaneous eigenstate of its time-dependent Hamiltonian. The celebrated quantum adiabatic theorem ensures that such pure…
When a Hamiltonian density is bounded by below, we know that the lowest-energy state must be stable. One is often tempted to reverse the theorem and therefore believe that an unbounded Hamiltonian density always implies an instability. The…
We present a version of relative locality based on the geometry of twistor space. This can also be thought of as a new kind of deformation of twistor theory based on the construction of a bundle of twistor spaces over momentum space.…
In this paper, we consider a family of second-order elliptic systems subject to a periodically oscillating Robin boundary condition. We establish the qualitative homogenization theorem on any Lipschitz domains satisfying a non-resonance…
In the study of evolution equations, the method of adiabatic approximation is an essential tool to reduce an infinite-dimensional dynamical system to a simpler, possibly finite-dimensional one. In this paper, we formulate a generic scheme…
Systems with local dynamics are characterized by a finite velocity of propagation of perturbations, known as the Lieb-Robinson velocity. On the other hand, irreducible stochastic processes drive states towards some unique fixed point.…
Relying only on first principles, we derive a master equation of Lindblad form generally applicable for adiabatically time dependent systems. Our analysis shows that the much debated secular approximation can be valid for slowly time…
A general Hamiltonian theory for the adiabatic motion of relativistic charged particles confined by slowly-varying background electromagnetic fields is presented based on a unified Lie-transform perturbation analysis in extended phase space…
We consider open many-body systems governed by a time-dependent quantum master equation with short-range interactions. With a generalized Lieb-Robinson bound, we show that the evolution in this very generic framework is quasi-local, i.e.,…
In this paper we deal with the well-posedness of Dirichlet problems associated to nonlocal Hamilton-Jacobi parabolic equations in a bounded, smooth domain $\Omega$, in the case when the classical boundary condition may be lost. We address…
The Lieb-Robinson bound implies that the unitary time evolution of an operator can be restricted to an effective light cone for any Hamiltonian with short-range interactions. Here we present a very efficient renormalization group algorithm…
We introduce and study the adiabatic dynamics of free-fermion models subject to a local Lindblad bath and in the presence of a time-dependent Hamiltonian. The merit of these models is that they can be solved exactly, and will help us to…
We study a class of parabolic equations having first order terms with superlinear (and subquadratic) growth. The model problem is the so-called viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equation with superlinear Hamiltonian. We address the problem of having…
We consider a nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with a bounded local potential in $R^3$. The linear Hamiltonian is assumed to have three or more bound states with the eigenvalues satisfying some resonance conditions. Suppose that the initial…
We consider a broad class of systems of nonlinear integro-differential equations posed on the real line that arise as Euler-Lagrange equations to energies involving nonlinear nonlocal interactions. Although these equations are not readily…
The Heimburg-Jackson model, or thermodynamic soliton theory of nervous impulses, has a well-established record as an alternative model for studying the dynamics of nerve impulses and lipid bilayers. Within this framework, nerve impulses can…
Nonlocal gravity models are constructed to explain the current acceleration of the universe. These models are inspired by the infrared correction appearing in Einstein Hilbert action. Here we develop the Hamiltonian formalism of a nonlocal…
The standard mean field slave-boson solution for the infinite-$U$ Hubbard model is revised. A slightly modified version is proposed which includes properly the incoherent contribution of the localized states. In contrast to the standard…
