In this work a new mechanics will be studied which is based on the hypothesis that the change of linear momentum of a particle happens as a discrete pulses. By using this hypothesis and by considering Newton's relation between energy and…
Although an intimate relation between entropy and diffusion has been advocated for many years and even seems to have been verified in theory and experiments, a quantitatively reliable study, and any derivation of an algebraic relation…
Recently, Ryu et al. showed that two broadened bands connected by a set of four Einstein-coefficient spectra for stimulated and spontaneous single-photon transitions will obey detailed balance at equilibrium if the spectra satisfy…
Quantum diffusion, as developed in the 1990s, could explain how a system, subject to measurement, goes into an eigenstate of the measured observable. Here it is shown that quantum diffusion theory can be interpreted as a result within…
We consider the magnetic Lorentz gas proposed by Bobylev et al. [4], which describes a point particle moving in a random distribution of hard-disk obstacles in $\mathbb{R}^2$ under the influence of a constant magnetic field perpendicular to…
The isospin diffusion and other irreversible phenomena are discussed for a two-component nuclear Fermi system. The set of Boltzmann transport equations, such as employed for reactions, are linearized, for weak deviations of a system from…
The master equation describing non-equilibrium one-dimensional problems like diffusion limited reactions can be written as a euclideen Schr\"odinger equation in which the wave function is the probability distribution and the Hamiltonian is…
We obtain a non-linear generalization of the relativistic diffusion of particles with spin. We discuss diffusion equations whose non-linearity is a consequence of quantum statistics. We show that the assumptions of the relativistic…
We consider a particle moving with equation of motion $\dot x=f(t)$, where $f(t)$ is a random function with statistics which are independent of $x$ and $t$, with a finite drift velocity $v=\langle f\rangle$ and in the presence of a…
We compute the non-universal constants in the KPZ equation in one dimension, in terms of the thermodynamical quantities associated to the underlying microscopic dynamics. In particular, we derive the second-order Einstein relation $\lambda…
A theorem of Hegerfeldt shows that if the spectrum of the Hamiltonian is bounded from below, then the propagation speed of certain probabilities does not have an upper bound. We prove a theorem analogous to Hegerfeldt's that appertains to…
We derive a distribution function for the position of a tagged active particle in a slowly varying in space external potential, in a system of interacting active particles. The tagged particle distribution has the form of the Boltzmann…
In this letter, we present the unified paradigm on entropy-ruled Einstein diffusion-mobility relation ({\mu}/D ratio) for all dimensional systems (1D, 2D and 3D) of molecules and materials. The different dimension-associated fractional…
We review some recent results concerning the derivation of the diffusion equation and the validation of Fick's law for the microscopic model given by the random Lorentz Gas. These results are achieved by using a linear kinetic equation as…
The analysis of dissipation and dephasing in driven mesoscopic devices requires a distinction between two notions of quantum irreversibility. One ("Loschmidt echo") is related to "time reversal", while the other is related to "driving…
We consider the linear dissipative Boltzmann equation describing inelastic interactions of particles with a fixed background. For the simplified model of Maxwell molecules first, we give a complete spectral analysis, and deduce from it the…
We study consequences of gauge invariance and charge conservation of an electron gas in a strong random potential perturbed by a weak electromagnetic field. We use quantum equations of motion and Ward identities for one- and two-particle…
