Fluctuations around a Bose-Einstein condensate can be described by means of Bogolubov theory leading to the notion of quasiparticle and antiquasiparticle familiar to non-relativistic condensed matter practitioners. On the other hand, we…
The paper is continuation of [6] where we have discussed some classical and quantization problems of rigid bodies of infinitesimal size moving in Riemannian spaces. Strictly speaking, we have considered oscillatory dynamical models on…
We present a simple and intuitive description of both, the Schwinger effect and false vacuum decay through bubble nucleation, as tunneling problems in one-dimensional relativistic quantum mechanics. Both problems can be described by an…
We analyze the effect of a finite volume on the thermodynamic potentials of a relativistic quantum field theory defined on a hypertorus at vanishing chemical potential. Using the symmetries of the Euclidean partition function, we interpret…
In lattice quantum field theories with topological sectors, simulations at fine lattice spacings --- with typical algorithms --- tend to freeze topologically. In such cases, specific topological finite size effects have to be taken into…
We develop a method for computing the Bogoliubov transformation experienced by a confined quantum scalar field in a globally hyperbolic spacetime, due to the changes in the geometry and/or the confining boundaries. The method constructs a…
We consider an asymmetric version of a two-dimensional Coulomb gas, made up of two species of pointlike particles with positive $+1$ and negative -1/Q $(Q = 1, 2, ...)$ charges; Q=1 corresponds to the symmetric two-component plasma and the…
We prove several discrete Gagliardo-Nirenberg-Sobolev and Poincar\'e-Sobolev inequalities for some approximations with arbitrary boundary values on finite volume meshes. The keypoint of our approach is to use the continuous embedding of the…
We study the limit of large volume equilibrium Gibbs measures for a rather general Hamiltonians. In particular we study Hamiltonians which arise in naturally in Nonlinear Elasticity and Hamiltonians (containing surface terms) which arises…
Contrary to field theoretical calculations in the thermodynamic limit where the volume is assumed to be infinitely large, the heavy-ion collisions always carry the effects of finite size. A sufficiently small system size is expected to…
We consider ultracold bosons in a 2D square optical lattice described by the Bose-Hubbard model. In addition, an external time-dependent sinusoidal force is applied to the system, which shakes the lattice along one of the diagonals. The…
One of the major challenges in finite element methods is the mitigation of spurious oscillations near sharp layers and discontinuities known as the Gibbs phenomenon. In this article, we propose a set of functionals to identify spurious…
The conjecture, that the finite volume corrections to the thermodynamic functions can be correctly reproduced by using the thermodynamic limit with low particle momenta cutoff is examined in a very transparent example of an ideal boson gas…
We investigate cosmological consequences arising from the interaction between a homogeneous and isotropic brane-universe and the bulk. A Friedmann equation is derived which incorporates both the brane and bulk matter contributions, which…
In this article, we have analyzed semi-discrete finite element approximations of the Stochastic linear Schr\"{o}dinger equation in a bounded convex polygonal domain driven by additive Wiener noise. We use the finite element method for…
Time-dependent gravitational background is well known as a theoretical laboratory for quantum mechanical particle production. In the present analysis, we explore such production in a time-dependent analog system. This is the follow-up of…
A (1+1)-dimensional quantum field theory with a degenerate vacuum (in infinite volume) can contain particles, known as kinks, which interpolate between different vacua and have nontrivial restrictions on their multi-particle Hilbert space.…
In this paper we discuss one-dimensional models reproducing some features of quantum electrodynamics and quantum chromodynamics at nonzero density and temperature. Since a severe sign problem makes a numerical treatment of QED and QCD at…
