For a given positive integer $m$, the concept of hyperdeterminantal total positivity is defined for a kernel $K\colon {\mathbb R}^{2m} \to {\mathbb R}$, thereby generalizing the classical concept of total positivity. Extending the…
Extending the usual Ginzburg-Landau theory for the random-field Ising model, the possibility of dimensional reduction is reconsidered. A renormalization group for the probability distribution of magnetic impurities is applied. New…
A classical Kamae-Weiss theorem states that an increasing sequence $(n_i)_{i\in\mathbb N}$ of positive lower density is \emph{normality preserving}, i.e. has the property that for any normal binary sequence $(b_n)_{n\in\mathbb N}$, the…
We study the quantum-mechanical interpretation of models with non-Hermitian Hamiltonians and real spectra. We set up a general framework for the analysis of such systems in terms of Hermitian Hamiltonians defined in the usual Hilbert space…
In many contexts one encounters Hermitian operators $M$ on a Hilbert space whose dimension is so large that it is impossible to write down all matrix entries in an orthonormal basis. How does one determine whether such $M$ is positive…
We characterize the total positivity in space-time of real strictly stable semigroups. In the positive case, this solves a problem which had been raised by Karlin. In the drifted Cauchy case, this concludes a study which we had initiated in…
Let $H$ be a positive semi-definite matrix partitioned in $\beta\times \beta$ Hermitian blocks, $H=[A_{s,t}]$, $1\le s,t,\le \beta$. Then, for all symmetric norms, {equation*} \| H \| \le \| \sum_{s=1}^{\beta} A_{s,s} \|. {equation*} The…
Based on the Renormalization Group method, a reduction of non integrable multi-dimensional hamiltonian systems has been performed. The evolution equations for the slowly varying part of the angle-averaged phase space density, and for the…
New non Hermitian Hamiltonians are generated, as isospectral partners of the generalized Swanson model, viz., $ H_- = {\cal{A}}^{\dagger} {\cal{A}} + \alpha {\cal{A}} ^2 + \beta {\cal{A}}^{\dagger 2} $, where $ \alpha \beta $ are real…
We describe key elements of the perturbative similarity renormalization group procedure for Hamiltonians using two, third-order examples: phi^3 interaction term in the Hamiltonian of scalar field theory in 6 dimensions and triple-gluon…
We show that, in general, averaging at simple resonances a real--analytic, nearly--integrable Hamiltonian, one obtains a one--dimensional system with a cosine--like potential; ``in general'' means for a generic class of holomorphic…
The existence of the Hamiltonians of the renormalized point interactions in two and three dimensional Riemannian manifolds and that of a relativistic extension of this model in two dimensions are proven. Although it is much more difficult,…
The purpose of this paper is to revisit the proof of the Gearhart-Pr\"uss-Huang-Greiner theorem for a semigroup $S(t)$, following the general idea of the proofs that we have seen in the literature and to get an explicit estimate on the…
We prove the existence, uniqueness, and strict positivity of ground states of the possibly massless renormalized Nelson operator under an infrared regularity condition and for Kato decomposable electrostatic potentials fulfilling a binding…
We investigate the renormalisation of Einstein gravity using a novel subtraction scheme in dimensional regularisation. The one-loop beta function for Newton's constant receives contributions from poles in even dimensions and can be mapped…
We construct multiplicative renormalization for the Epstein--Glaser renormalization scheme in perturbative Algebraic Quantum Field Theory: To this end, we fully combine the Connes--Kreimer renormalization framework with the Epstein--Glaser…
Many experimental techniques aim at determining the Hamiltonian of a given system. The Hamiltonian describes the system's evolution in the absence of dissipation, and is often central to control or interpret an experiment. Here, we…
We review the Lee-Friedrichs model as a model of atomic resonances in the hydrogen atom, using the dipole-moment matrix-element functions which have been exactly computed by Nussenzveig. The Hamiltonian $H$ of the model is positive and has…
We study the similarity renormalization scheme for hamiltonians to the fourth order in perturbation theory using a model hamiltonian for fermions coupled to bosons. We demonstrate that the free finite parts of counterterms can be chosen in…
We prove L^1 to L^infinity estimates for charge transfer Hamiltonians H(t) in R^n for n > or = 3, followed by a discussion of estimates from W^{k,p'} to W^{k,p} for the same model, where 2 < p < infinity and 1/p + 1/p'=1. Then, geometric…
