We propose a formalism to study dynamical properties of a quantum many-body system in the thermodynamic limit by studying a finite system with infinite boundary conditions (IBC) where both finite size effects and boundary effects have been…

We present a second-order algorithm for approximating solutions to nonlocal diffusive processes in reaction-diffusion equations. The numerical scheme relies on a quadrature method for the spatial discretization and a second-order…

Rindler's metric is an interesting way to incorporate a set of uniformly accelerated observers into space-time coordinates; this is consistent with special and general relativity. It is known that such an acceleration gives rise to the…

We consider a parabolic non-local free boundary problem that has been derived as a limit of a bulk-surface reaction-diffusion system which models cell polarization. The authors have justified the well-posedness of this problem and have…

After a brief review of integrability, first in the absence and then in the presence of a boundary, I outline the construction of actions for the N=1 and N=2 boundary sine-Gordon models. The key point is to introduce Fermionic boundary…

In this work, we investigate the continuity of the free boundary in a class of elliptic problems, with Neuman boundary condition. The main idea is a change of variable that allows us to reduce the problem to the one studied in [14].

We discuss the problem of constructing self-adjoint and lower bounded Hamiltonians for a system of $n>2$ non-relativistic quantum particles in dimension three with contact (or zero-range or $\delta$) interactions. Such interactions are…

The method is proposed for the phenomenological description of particle creation by external fields (in the presence of gravitational field or without it). It is shown that, despite the appearance of the non-dynamical degrees of freedom,…

Particle creation terms in quantum Hamiltonians are usually ultraviolet divergent and thus mathematically ill defined. A rather novel way of solving this problem is based on imposing so-called interior-boundary conditions on the wave…

We calculate the exact stationary distribution of the one-dimensional zero-range process with open boundaries for arbitrary bulk and boundary hopping rates. When such a distribution exists, the steady state has no correlations between sites…

The generation of arbitrary single-mode quantum states from the vacuum by alternate coherent displacement and photon adding as well as the measurement of the overlap of a signal with an arbitrarily chosen quantum state are studied. With…

In this work, we readdress the Dirac equation in the position-dependent mass (PDM) scenario. Here, one investigates the quantum dynamics of non-Hermitian fermionic particles with effective mass assuming a $(1+1)$-dimension flat spacetime.…

It is shown that quantum mechanics on noncommutative (NC) spaces can be obtained by canonical quantization of some underlying constrained systems. Noncommutative geometry arises after taking into account the second class constraints…

A mutualist model with nonlocal diffusions and a free boundary is first considered. We prove that this problem has a unique solution defined $t\ge0$, and its dynamics are governed by a spreading-vanishing dichotomy. Some criteria for…
