We study a particle immersed in a heat bath, in the presence of an external force which decays at least as rapidly as $1/x$, for example a particle interacting with a surface through a Lennard-Jones or a logarithmic potential. As time…

The equilibrium state of a system consisting of a large number of strongly interacting electrons can be characterized by its density operator. This gives a direct access to the ground-state energy or, at finite temperatures, to the free…

We construct and study the stochastic force field generated by a Poisson distribution of sources at finite density, $x_1,x_2,\cdots$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ each of them yielding a long range potential $Q_i\Phi(x-x_i)$ with possibly different…
