The second law of thermodynamics is asymmetric with respect to time as it says that the entropy of the universe must have been lower in the past and will be higher in the future. How this time-asymmetric law arises from the time-symmetric…
This paper is withdrawn due to a mistake. The revised version with a new tiltle can be found in hep-ph/0502199.
We study the loss of spatial coherence in the extended wave function of fullerenes due to collisions with background gases. From the gradual suppression of quantum interference with increasing gas pressure we are able to support…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author, due to errors in Groebner basis calculations in the cases of five and six dimensional groups.
This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to a crucial sign error in equation 1.
Quantum theory is formulated as the only consistent way to manipulate probability amplitudes. The crucial ingredient is a consistency constraint: if there are two different ways to compute an amplitude the two answers must agree. This…
Some Physics (obtaining lattice-compatible deconfinement temperature, some transport coefficients and Einstein's relation) and Mathematics (torsion classes and supersymmetry) issues pertaining to the delocalized SYZ type IIA mirror of [1]…

Quantum chaos imposes universal spectral signatures that govern the thermofield dynamics of a many-body system in isolation. The fidelity between the initial and time-evolving thermofield double states exhibits as a function of time a…
The paper was withdrawn due to a gap in the proof of Lemma 3.
This paper was withdrawn by the authors due an error in the elimination of the front in the linearized interior equations (28)-(29).
The quantum theory of decoherence plays an important role in a pragmatist interpretation of quantum theory. It governs the descriptive content of claims about values of physical magnitudes and offers advice on when to use quantum…

This paper has been withdrawn by the author, due to an error in Proposition 2.2.
Environment-induced decoherence and superselection have been a subject of intensive research over the past two decades, yet their implications for the foundational problems of quantum mechanics, most notably the quantum measurement problem,…

Decoherence due to scattering from background gas particles is observed for the first time in a Mach-Zehnder atom interferometer, and compared with decoherence due to scattering photons. A single theory is shown to describe decoherence due…
Recently it has been proposed to use parity as a measure of the mechanism behind decoherence or the transformation from quantum to classical. Here, we show that the proposed experiment is more feasible than previously thought, as even an…
