We investigate the dynamics of a large anisotropic spin whose easy-axis component is coupled to a bosonic bath with a spectral function $J(\w)\propto \omega^s$. Such a spin complex might be realized in a single-molecular magnet. Using the…
Quantum mechanics describes the unitary time evolution of closed systems. In practice, every quantum system interacts with the environment leading to an irreversible loss of coherence. The Spin-Boson model (SBM) is central to the…

The many-body Green's function theory with the random-phase approximation is applied to the study of easy-plane spin-1/2 ferromagnets in an in-plane magnetic field. We demonstrate that the usual procedure, in which only the three Green's…
We study the dynamics of a particle tunneling between the ground states of a symmetric double potential well system, in the presence of simultaneous diagonal and non-diagonal couplings to an Ohmic oscillator bath. We use the…
The construction of non-empirical density functional approximations is typically guided by the satisfaction of exact constraints. An important constraint is the recovery of the gradient expansion for slowly varying electron densities. In…
The Ising model, in presence of an external magnetic field, is isomorphic to a model of localized interacting particles satisfying the Fermi statistics. By using this isomorphism, we construct a general solution of the Ising model which…
