The polaron model of H. Fr\"ohlich describes an electron coupled to the quantized longitudinal optical modes of a polar crystal. In the strong-coupling limit one expects that the phonon modes may be treated classically, which leads to a…
The polaron concept captures physical situations involving an itinerant quantum particle (excitation) that interacts strongly with bosonic degrees of freedom and becomes heavily boson-dressed. While the Gerlach-L\"{o}wen theorem rules out…

In this paper, we consider the mean field limit of Brownian particles with Coulomb interaction in 3D space. In particular, using a symmetrization technique, we show that the limit measure almost surely is a weak solution to the limiting…
We study a class of polaron-type Hamiltonians with sufficiently regular form factor in the interaction term. We investigate the strong-coupling limit of the model, and prove suitable bounds on the ground state energy as a function of the…
We consider the Fr\"ohlich Hamiltonian in a mean-field limit where many bosonic particles weakly couple to the quantized phonon field. For large particle number and suitably small coupling, we show that the dynamics of the system is…

A dynamical mean-field theory of the small polaron problem is presented, which becomes exact in the limit of infinite dimensions. The ground state properties and the one-electron spectral function are obtained for a single electron…
We use determinant quantum Monte Carlo to study the single particle properties of quasiparticles and phonons in a variant of the two-dimensional Holstein model that includes an additional non-linear electron-phonon (e-ph) interaction. We…
This paper proves the validity of the joint mean-field and classical limit of the quantum $N$-body dynamics leading to the pressureless Euler-Poisson system for factorized initial data whose first marginal has a monokinetic Wigner measure.…
The formation of a polaron quasiparticle from a bare electron is studied in the framework of the Holstein model of electron-phonon coupling. Using Schr\"{o}dinger's formalism, we calculate the time evolution of the distribution of the…
We consider the quasi-classical limit of Nelson-type regularized polaron models describing a particle interacting with a quantized bosonic field. We break translation-invariance by adding an attractive external potential decaying at…
The main quasi-particle characteristics of the one-dimensional polaron are estimated within and beyond the most general Gaussian approximation at arbitrary electron-phonon coupling. We have derived explicitly the ground-state energy and the…
A simple approach to the many-polaron problem for both weak and intermediate electron-phonon coupling and valid for densities much smaller than those typical of metals is presented. Within the model the total energy, the collective modes…
We consider solitary wave solutions to the Dirac--Coulomb system both from physical and mathematical points of view. Fermions interacting with gravity in the Newtonian limit are described by the model of Dirac fermions with the Coulomb…
We study the dynamics of large polarons described by the Froehlich Hamiltonian in the limit of strong coupling. The initial conditions are (perturbations of) product states of an electron wave function and a phonon coherent state, as…
The Vlasov-Poisson system for ions is a kinetic equation for dilute, unmagnetised plasma. It describes the evolution of the ions in a plasma under the assumption that the electrons are thermalized. Consequently, the Poisson coupling for the…
We consider a one dimensional model of an electron in a doubly (or nearly) degenerate band that interacts with elastic distortions. We show that the electron equations of motion reduce to a set of coupled non-linear Schrodinger equations.…
