Some of the more powerful results of mathematical statistics are becoming of increasing importance in statistical mechanics. Here the use of the central limit theorem in conjunction with the canonical ensemble is shown to lead to an…
In classical estimation theory, the central limit theorem implies that the statistical error in a measurement outcome can be reduced by an amount proportional to n^(-1/2) by repeating the measures n times and then averaging. Using quantum…
We present in this talk a series of new results on the nature of a bound state or resonance based on the calculation of the expectation values of the number operators of the free particles in the state of interest. In this way, a new…
We discuss an N=2 quantum mechanics with or without a central charge. A representation is constructed with the number of bosonic degrees of freedom less that one half of the fermionic degrees of freedom. We suggest a systematic method of…
We have developed a formalism that includes both quasibound states with real energies and quantum resonances within the same theoretical framework, and that admits a clean and unambiguous distinction between these states and the states of…
Using non-relativistic effective Lagrangians in the particle-dimer picture, we rederive the expression for the energy shift of a loosely bound three-particle bound state of identical bosons in the unitary limit. The effective field theory…
The relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell system is a kinetic model for collisionless plasmas. For the two-dimensional model, global well-posedness of this model is known and was proven by deriving global bounds on the momentum support of the…
The quantum mechanical formalism for position and momentum of a particle in a one dimensional cyclic lattice is constructively developed. Some mathematical features characteristic of the finite dimensional Hilbert space are compared with…
Atomic-like systems in which electronic motion is two dimensional are now realizable as ``quantum dots''. In place of the attraction of a nucleus there is a confining potential, usually assumed to be quadratic. Additionally, a perpendicular…
Using the auxiliary field method, a generic upper bound is obtained for the spinless Salpeter equation with two different masses. Analytical results are presented for the cases of the Coulomb and linear potentials when a mass is vanishing.
We identify emergence with the existence of states of potentiality related to relevant physical quantities. We introduce the concept of 'potentiality state' operationally and show how it reduces to 'superposition state' when standard…
Using quantum theory operator methods we discuss the general reversible reactions $A_1+A_2+... A_r \leftrightarrow B_1+B_2+... +B_s$, where $r$ and $s$ are arbitrary natural positive numbers. We show that if either direction of the reaction…
Momentum diffusion is a possible mechanism for driving macroscopic quantum systems towards classical behaviour. Experimental tests of this hypothesis rely on a precise estimation of the strength of this diffusion. We show that…
This paper inspects more closely the problem of the momentum and energy of a bound (non-radiating) electromagnetic (EM) field. It has been shown that for an isolated system of non-relativistic mechanically free charged particles a…
We construct the exact position representation of a deformed quantum mechanics which exhibits an intrinsic maximum momentum and use it to study problems such as a particle in a box and scattering from a step potential, among others. In…
For each integer $\ell \geq 1$, we prove an unconditional upper bound on the size of the $\ell$-torsion subgroup of the class group, which holds for all but a zero-density set of field extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ of degree $d$, for any fixed…
We prove a new lower bound on the indirect Coulomb energy in quantum mechanics in terms of the single particle density of the system. The new universal lower bound is an alternative to the classical Lieb--Oxford bound (with a smaller…
This paper derives most of the formulas in the MKN (Maung-Kahana-Norbury) Theory of bound states which incorporates the Lande Subtraction method to remove the singularities of the Cornell potential.
Quantum mechanics is derived from the principle that the universe contain as much variety as possible, in the sense of maximizing the distinctiveness of each subsystem. The quantum state of a microscopic system is defined to correspond to…
An axiomatic formalism for a minimal irreversible quantum mechanics is introduced. It is shown that a quantum equilibrium and the decoherence phenomenon are consequences of the axioms and that Lyapunov variables, exponential survival…
