A manifestly covariant, coordinate independent reformulation of the Thermodynamic Field Theory (TFT) is presented. The TFT is a covariant field theory that describes the evolution of a thermodynamic system, extending the near-equilibrium…
A Gelfand-Cetlin system is a completely integrable system defined on a partial flag manifold whose image is a rational convex polytope called a Gelfand-Cetlin polytope. Motivated by the study of Nishinou-Nohara-Ueda on the Floer theory of…
In this paper we provide an asymptotic theory for the symmetric version of the Kullback--Leibler (KL) divergence. We define a estimator for this divergence and study its asymptotic properties. In particular, we prove Law of Large Numbers…
Planck's law of thermal radiation depends on the temperature, $T$, and the emissivity, $\epsilon$, of a body, where emissivity is the coupling of heat to radiation that depends on both phonon-electron nonradiative interactions and…
The order-by-order renormalization of the self-consistent mean-field potential in many-body perturbation theory for normal Fermi systems is investigated in detail. Building on previous work mainly by Balian and de Dominicis, as a key result…
We present an elementary proof of a reduced version of Gleason's theorem and the Kochen-Specker theorem to provide a novel perspective on the relation between both theorems. The proof is based on a set of linear equations for the values of…
The computation of thermal properties of quantum many-body systems is a central challenge in our understanding of quantum mechanics. We introduce the Quantum Finite Temperature Lanczos Method (QFTLM), which extends the finite-temperature…

This article generalises the well-known Katznelson-Tzafriri theorem for a $C_0$-semigroup $T$ on a Banach space $X$, by removing the assumption that a certain measure in the original result be absolutely continuous. In an important special…
The Dyson-Schwinger equations of Landau-gauge Yang-Mills theory for the gluon and ghost propagators are investigated. Numerical results are obtained within a truncation scheme which has proven to be successful at vanishing temperature. For…
We compare the effective dynamics of soft fields, based on temperature field theory, with the mean field dynamics from non-Abelian kinetic theory. We derive the polarization tensor with the leading logarithmic factor $\log({gT\over\mu})$…
Every many-body state can be constructed from the vacuum state by iteratively applying the creation operators, therefore the thermal expectation can be transformed into a sum of vacuum expectation where the vacuum Wick's theorem holds.…
We evaluate the density matrix of an arbitrary quantum mechanical system in terms of the quantities pertinent to the solution of the time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) problem. Our theory utilizes the adiabatic connection…
We provide a new simple and transparent proof of the version of Kummer's test given in [Tong, J. (1994). Amer. Math. Monthly. 101(5): 450--452]. Our proof is based on an application of a Hardy--Littlewood Tauberian theorem.
The temperature-dependent thermal conductivities of one-dimensional nonlinear Klein-Gordon lattices with soft on-site potential (soft-KG) have been investigated systematically. Similar to the previously studied hard-KG lattices, the…
We obtain a multidimensional Tauberian theorem for Laplace transforms of Gelfand-Shilov ultradistributions. The result is derived from a Laplace transform characterization of bounded sets in spaces of ultradistributions with supports in a…
