A theory for the transitive action of a group on the configuration space of a system of particles is shown to lead to the conclusion that interactions can be represented by the action of cosets of the group. By application of this principle…

We study the scattering dynamics of an $n$-component spinor wavefunction in a random environment on a two-dimensional lattice. In the presence of particle-hole symmetry we find diffusion on large scales. The latter is described by a…

The propagator which evolves the wave-function in NRQM, can be expressed as a matrix element of a time evolution operator: i.e $ G_{\rm NR}(x)= \langle{\mathbf{x}_2}|{U_{\rm NR}(t)}|{\mathbf{x}_1}\rangle$ in terms of the orthonormal…
