In this paper a general theory of semi-classical matrix orthogonal polynomials is developed. We define the semi-classical linear functionals by means of a distributional equation $D(u A) = u B,$ where $A$ and $B$ are matrix polynomials.…
We consider the links between consistent and approximate descriptions of the quantum-classical systems, i.e. systems are composed of two interacting subsystems, one of which behaves almost classically while the other requires a quantum…
The herein presented analytical framework fully describes the motion of coplanar systems consisting of a stellar binary and a planet orbiting both stars on orbital as well as secular timescales. Perturbations of the Runge-Lenz vector are…
In this chapter we present transformation semigroups and their applications. We begin with Klein's approach to geometry based on invariants of transformation groups. Then we present symmetry groups in chemistry and in classical mechanics.…
We define a quasimodule Q over a bounded lattice L in an analogous way as a module over a semiring is defined. The essential difference is that L need not be distributive. Also for quasimodules there can be introduced the concepts of inner…
In this work we investigate Stinespring dilations of quantum-dynamical semigroups, which are known to exist by means of a constructive proof given by Davies in the early 70s. We show that if the semigroup describes an open system, that is,…
An evolving Riemannian manifold $(M,g_t)_{t\in I}$ consists of a smooth $d$-dimensional manifold $M$, equipped with a geometric flow $g_t$ of complete Riemannian metrics, parametrized by $I=(-\infty,T)$. Given an additional $C^{1,1}$ family…
Each semigroup describing the time evolution of an open quantum system on a finite dimensional Hilbert space is related to a special structure of this space. It is shown how the space can be decomposed into subspaces: One is related to…
Multiplicative matrix semigroups with constant spectral radius (c.s.r.) are studied and applied to several problems of algebra, combinatorics, functional equations, and dynamical systems. We show that all such semigroups are characterized…
In this work we study a one-dimensional lattice of Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick models with alternating couplings between nearest-neighbors sites, which resembles the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model. Typical properties of the underlying models are…
We introduce a novel linear transport equation that models the evolution of a one-particle distribution subject to free transport and two distinct scattering mechanisms: one affecting the particle's speed and the other its direction. These…
Evolution of systems in which Hamiltonians are generators of gauge transformations is a notion that requires more structure than the canonical theory provides. We identify and study this additional structure in the framework of relational…
Flattened axisymmetric galactic potentials are known to host minor orbit families surrounding orbits with commensurable frequencies. The behavior of orbits that belong to these orbit families is fundamentally different than that of typical…
We establish the relation between the Wigner-Weisskopf theory for the description of an unstable system and the theory of coupling to an environment. According to the Wigner-Weisskopf general approach, even within the pole approximation…
The linear semigroup associated with age-structured diffusive populations is investigated in the $L_1$-setting. A complete determination of its generator is given along with detailed spectral information that imply, in particular, an…
We study the properties of the two-point spectral form factor for classically chaotic systems with spin 1/2 in the semiclassical limit, with a suitable semiclassical trace formula as our principal tool. To this end we introduce a…
Ellis's "functional approach" allows one to obtain proper compactifications of a topological group $G$ if $G$ can be represented as a subgroup of the homeomorphism group of a space $X$ in the topology of pointwise convergence and $G$-space…
According to the Langlands functoriality conjecture, broadened to the setting of spherical varieties (of which reductive groups are special cases), a map between L-groups of spherical varieties should give rise to a functorial transfer of…
In this study we introduce the notions of semi-homotopy of semi-continuous maps and of semi-paths. We also construct a group structure, which will be called semi-fundamental group, using semi-loops and explore some properties of…
A connection between the Galois-theoretic approach to semi-abelian homology and the homological closure operators is established. In particular, a generalised Hopf formula for homology is obtained, allowing the choice of a new kind of…
