A theoretical scheme, based on a probabilistic generalization of the Hamilton's principle, is elaborated to obtain an unified description of more general dynamical behaviors determined both from a lagrangian function and by mechanisms not…
A quantum field theory is described which is a supersymmetric classical model. -- Supersymmetry generators of the system are used to split its Liouville operator into two contributions, with positive and negative spectrum, respectively. The…
In accelerator and plasma physics it is accepted that there is no need to solve the dynamical equations for particles in covariant form, i.e. by using the coordinate-independent proper time to parameterize particle world-lines in…
Using the quantum field theory approach developed in Phys. Rev. D. 93, 045002 (2016), we consider particle scattering and vacuum instability in the so-called L-constant electric field, which is a constant electric field confined between two…
The dissipative dynamics anticipated in the proof of 't Hooft's existence theorem -- "For any quantum system there exists at least one deterministic model that reproduces all its dynamics after prequantization" -- is constructed here…
The geometric transitions from the evolution in the complex plane of time provide channels for particle production for a quantum field in expanding universes. The production rate for one pair is obtained by squaring and summing the…
Recently, a self-contained trajectory-based formulation of non-relativistic quantum mechanics was developed [Ann. Phys. 315, 505 (2005); Chem. Phys. 370, 4 (2010); J. Chem. Phys. 136, 031102 (2012)], that makes no use of wavefunctions or…
In this work, we consider a general feedback protocol based on quantum-jump detections, where the last detected jump channel is stored in a memory and subsequently used to implement a feedback action, such as modifying the system…
The Newtonian motion of a macroscopic particle is derived from the linear Schr\"odinger equation with a Hamiltonian consisting of the free-particle term and a random Hamiltonian drawn from the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble. The random term…
We consider the problem of an electron tunneling between two coupled quantum dots, a two-state quantum system (qubit), using a low-transparency point contact (PC) or tunnel junction as a detector continually measuring the position of the…
We show that all non-relativistic quantum processes, whether open or closed, are either unitary or probabilistic unitary, i.e., probabilistic combination of unitary evolutions. This means that for open quantum systems, its continuous…
Quantum particles can be obtained from a classical probability distribution in phase space by a suitable coarse graining, whereby simultaneous classical information about position and momentum can be lost. For a suitable time evolution of…
We develop a new formalism for constructing probabilities associated to the causal ordering of events in quantum theory, where by an event we mean the emergence of a measurement record on a detector. We start with constructing probabilities…
In order to make the quantum mechanics a closed theory one has to derive the Born rule from the first principles, like the Schroedinger equation, rather than postulate it. The Born rule was in certain sense derived in several articles, e.g.…
A comprehensive comparison of quantum evolution between the quantum and classical mechanically motion of nuclei in a finite-dimensional quantum chemistry model is presented. A modified version of Tavis-Cummings-Hubbard model with two…
We show analytically that particle trapping appears in a quantum process called "quantum walk", in which the particle moves macroscopically correlating to the inner states. It has been well known that a particle in the ``Hadamard walk" with…
We adopt the general formalism, which was developed in Paper I (arXiv:0708.1233) to analyze the evolution of a quantized time-dependent oscillator, to address several questions in the context of quantum field theory in time dependent…
Although the quantum classical Liouville equation (QCLE) arises by cutting off the exact equation of motion for a coupled nuclear-electronic system at order 1 (1 = $\hbar^0$ ), we show that the QCLE does include Berry's phase effects and…
We present a quantum-assisted generative algorithm for synthetic tracks of Lagrangian tracer particles in a turbulent shear flow. The parallelism and sampling properties of quantum algorithms are used to build and optimize a parametric…
The run-and-tumble particle (RTP) is one of the simplest examples of an active particle in which the direction of constant motion randomly switches. In the one-dimensional (1D) case this means switching between rightward and leftward…
