Sharp bounds are obtained, under a variety of assumptions on the eigenvalues of the Einstein tensor, for the ratio of the Hawking mass to the areal radius in static, spherically symmetric space-times.
Quantum mechanics and classical mechanics are two very different theories, but the correspondence principle states that quantum particles behave classically in the limit of high quantum number. In recent years much research has been done on…
We discuss a new approach to describe mesoscopic systems, based on the ideas of quantum electrical circuits with charge discreteness. This approach has allowed us to propose a simple alternative descriptions of some mesoscopic systems, with…
