We study Coulomb gases in any dimension $d \geq 2$ and in a broad temperature regime. We prove local laws on the energy, separation and number of points down to the microscopic scale. These yield the existence of limiting point processes…

In this note, we show that the Local Molecular Field theory of Weeks et. al. can be re-derived as an extremum problem for an approximate Helmholtz free energy. Using the resulting free energy as a classical, fluid density functional yields…

In the present study we generalize the self-consistent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) theory formulated in the coordinate space to the case which incorporates an arbitrary mixing between protons and neutrons in the particle-hole (p-h) and…

Trace estimators allow to approximate thermodynamic equilibrium observables with astonishing accuracy. A prominent representative is the finite-temperature Lanczos method (FTLM) which relies on a Krylov space expansion of the exponential…

We study the thermodynamic formalism for generalized Gibbs measures, such as renormalization group transformations of Gibbs measures or joint measures of disordered spin systems. We first show existence of the relative entropy density and…

We derive a rigorous lower bound on the average local energy for the Ising model with quenched randomness. The result is that the lower bound is given by the average local energy calculated in the absence of all interactions other than the…

A unified presentation of the perturbation and variational methods for the generalized statistical mechanics based on Tsallis entropy is given here. In the case of the variational method, the Bogoliubov inequality is generalized in a very…

In solving the problem of finding a temperature distribution which, at zero temperature, corresponds to superfluidity, i.e., to nonzero energy, the author tried to quantize free energy. This was done on the basis of supersecondary…

An inequality of the eigenvalues of the reduced density matrix $\rho_2$ at finite temperature in the Hubbard model is obtained by means of the Bogolyubov inequality. The quasi-average of $\tilde{S}^{+}$ in a simple symmetry-breaking…

For a wide class of Hamiltonians, a novel method to obtain lower and upper bounds for the lowest energy is presented. Unlike perturbative or variational techniques, this method does not involve the computation of any integral (a…

A physical system is said to satisfy a thermal area law if the mutual information between two adjacent regions in the Gibbs state is controlled by the area of their boundary. Thermal area laws have been derived for systems with bounded…

Following Feynman's treatment of the non-relativistic polaron problem, similar techniques are used to study relativistic field theories: after integrating out the bosonic degrees of freedom the resulting effective action is formulated in…

We extend the notion of Gibbsianness for mean-field systems to the set-up of general (possibly continuous) local state spaces. We investigate the Gibbs properties of systems arising from an initial mean-field Gibbs measure by application of…

By application of a straightforward variational procedure we derive a simple, analytic upper bound on the ground-state energy eigenvalue of a semirelativistic Hamiltonian for (one or two) spinless particles which experience some…

In this Chapter we illustrate the close connection between the violation of the weak equivalence principle typical of gravitational interactions at finite temperature, and similar violations induced by a breaking of the local Lorentz…

The variational principle for Gibbs point processes with general finite range interaction is proved. Namely, the Gibbs point processes are identified as the minimizers of the free excess energy equals to the sum of the specific entropy and…

A local exclusion principle is observed for identical particles obeying intermediate/fractional exchange statistics in one and two dimensions, leading to bounds for the kinetic energy in terms of the density. This has implications for…

The subject of this paper is to prove a functional weak invariance principle for the local time of a process generated by a Gibbs-Markov map. More precisely, let $\left(X,\mathcal{B},m,T,\alpha\right)$ is a mixing, probability preserving…

Stochastic field theories are often constructed phenomenologically, without a systematic assessment of thermodynamic consistency or local detailed balance. This may hinder a physical description of irreversibility at the field-theoretic…

In this paper, we study a class of multilinear Gibbs measures with Hamiltonian given by a generalized $\mathrm{U}$-statistic and with a general base measure. Expressing the asymptotic free energy as an optimization problem over a space of…
