A conceptually simple physical interpretation of a conserved Hamiltonian $\mathcal{H}$ for a mechanical system with a time-dependent constraint is given. For the case of a bead on a vertical hoop forced to rotate with constant angular…

We study the Hamiltonian dynamics of a free particle injected onto a chain containing a periodic array of harmonic oscillators in thermal equilibrium. The particle interacts locally with each oscillator, with an interaction that is linear…

We study the transition probabilities of a two-point measurement on a quantum system, initially prepared in a thermal state. We find two independent constraints on the difference between transition probabilities when the system is prepared…

A new variational method for studying the equilibrium states of an interacting particles system has been proposed. The statistical description of the system is realized by means of a density matrix. This method is used for description of…

We consider systems of n particles that move with constant velocity between collisions. Their total momentum but not necessarily their kinetic energy is preserved at collisions. As there are no further constraints, these systems are…

Dynamical properties of a few ultra-cold fermions confined in a double-well potential is studied. We show that the dynamics, which is governed by single-particle tunnelings for vanishing interactions, is completely different for strong…

We show that the observed non-monotonic behavior of the thermal conductance between two nanoparticles when they are brought into contact is originated by an intricate phase space dynamics. Here it is assumed that this dynamics results from…
