So far only quasifree fields have been shown to satisfy the Haag-Araki axioms for local algebras of observables; we show from a model in 1 + 1 dimensions that there can be representations in which two ingoing free particles produce a pair…
The 'n-equivalences' of boundary conditions of lattice models are introduced and it is derived that the models with n-equivalent boundary conditions result in the identical free energy. It is shown that the free energy of the six-vertex…
Free energy functionals of Ginzburg-Landau type lie at the heart of a broad class of continuum dynamical models, such as the Cahn-Hilliard and Swift-Hohenberg equations. Despite the wide use of such models, the assumptions embodied in the…
We establish high energy $L^2$ estimates for the restriction of the free Green's function to hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^d$. As an application, we estimate the size of a logarithmic resonance free region for scattering by potentials of the…
Many low energy hadrons, such as the rho, can be observed as resonances in scattering experiments. A proposal by L\"uscher enables one to determine infinite volume elastic scattering phases from the two-particle energy spectrum measured…
We have substantially extended the high-temperature and low-magnetic-field (and the related low-temperature and high-magnetic-field) bivariate expansions of the free energy for the conventional three-dimensional Ising model and for a…
In scattering theory, the unitary limit is defined by an infinite scattering-length and a zero effective range, corresponding to a phase-shift \pi/2, independent of energy. This condition is satisfied by a rank-1 separable potential…
Localized scattering phenomena may result in the formation of stationary matter waves originating from a compact region in physical space. Mathematically, such waves are advantageously expressed in terms of quantum sources that are…
We present a general method for deriving the energy shift of an interacting system of $N$ spinless particles in a finite volume. To this end, we use the nonrelativistic effective field theory (NREFT), and match the pertinent low-energy…
We present lattice results for the ground state energy of a spin-1/2 fermion system in the unitary limit, where the effective range of the interaction is zero and the scattering length is infinite. We compute the ground state energy for a…
A unified treatment for the existence of free energy in several random energy models is presented. If the sequence of distributions associated with the particle systems obeys a large deviation principle, then the free energy exists almost…
Finite size effects alter not only the energy levels of small systems, but can also lead to new effective interactions within these systems. Here the problem of low energy quantum scattering by a spherically symmetric short range potential…
We study two- and three-particle scattering in the O(3) non-linear sigma model in 1+1 dimensions, focusing on the isospin-1 and isospin-2 channels for two particles, and the isospin-3 channel for three. We perform numerical simulations for…
We study the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with an inverse-square potential in dimensions $3\leq d \leq 6$. We consider both focusing and defocusing nonlinearities in the mass-supercritical and energy-subcritical regime. In the focusing…
Massless scalar electrodynamics is studied at high temperature and zero chemical potential. I derive the free energy to order $\lambda^2$, $\lambda e^2$ and $e^4$ by effective field theory methods. The first step consists of the…
The direct and inverse scattering problems on the full line are analyzed for a first-order system of ordinary linear differential equations associated with the derivative nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation and related equations. The system…
Scattering and bound states for a spinless particle in the background of a kink-like smooth step potential, added with a scalar uniform background, are considered with a general mixing of vector and scalar Lorentz structures. The problem is…
The exact two-particle energy eigenstates in a generic asymmetric rectangular box with periodic boundary conditions in all three directions are studied. Their relation with the elastic scattering phases of the two particles in the continuum…
Two methodologies have been presented in the literature which connect relativistic three-particle scattering amplitudes with lattice QCD spectra -- the ``relativistic effective field theory'' approach and the ``finite-volume unitarity''…
We obtain the exact energy spectrum of nonuniform mass particles for a collection of Hamiltonians in a three-dimensional approach to a quantum dot. By considering a set of generalized Schr\"odinger equations with different orderings between…
