We present a time-reversible Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics scheme, based on self-consistent Hartree-Fock or density functional theory, where both the nuclear and the electronic degrees of freedom are propagated in time. We show how a…
We consider a rather general class of non-local in time Fokker-Planck equations and show by means of the entropy method that as $t\to \infty$ the solution converges in $L^1$ to the unique steady state. Important special cases are the…
We study nonequilibrium steady states of lattice gases with nearest-neighbor interactions that are driven between two reservoirs. Density profiles in these systems exhibit oscillations close to the reservoirs. We demonstrate that an…
We investigate quantum dynamics for an ion confined within an oscillating quadrupole field, starting from two well known and elegant approaches. It is established that the Hamilton equations of motion, in both Schr\"{o}dinger and Heisenberg…
We study the non-equlibrium dynamics of an electronic model of competing bond density wave order and $d$-wave superconductivity. In a time-dependent Hartree-Fock+BCS approximation, the dynamics reduces to the equations of motion of…

Higher-order time integration methods that unconditionally preserve the positivity and linear invariants of the underlying differential equation system cannot belong to the class of general linear methods. This poses a major challenge for…
We consider an ideal Fermi gas confined to a geometric structure consisting of a central region -- the sample -- connected to several infinitely extended ends -- the reservoirs. Under physically reasonable assumptions on the propagation…
We obtain an exact many-body scattering eigenstate in an open quantum dot system. The scattering state is not in the form of the Bethe eigenstate in the sense that the wave-number set of the incoming plane wave is not conserved during the…
We investigate the modulational instability of uniform wave packets governed by a discrete third-order nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation in finite square lattices, modeling light propagation in two-dimensional nonlinear waveguide arrays. We…

The Landauer transport formulation is generalized to the case of a dynamic scatterer with an arbitrary energy level structure, weakly coupled to a long ideal noninteracting wire. The two-terminal linear conductance of the device is…
We consider solutions to the full (non-isentropic) two-dimensional Euler equations that are constant in time and along rays emanating from the origin. We prove that for a polytropic equation of state, entropy admissible solutions in…
We consider a semiclassical linear Boltzmann model with a non local collision operator. We provide sharp spectral asymptotics for the small spectrum in the low temperature regime from which we deduce the rate of return to equilibrium as…
We review some results of our paper arXiv:1602.05171v2 on the "nonlinear quasifree approximation" to the many-body Schr\"odinger dynamics of Bose gases. In that paper, we derive, with the help of this approximation, the time-dependent…
