Equilibrium finite temperature observables of a CFT can be described by a local effective action for background fields -- a "thermal effective action." This effective action determines the asymptotic density of states of a CFT as a detailed…
Scalar fields appear in many theories beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. In the early universe, they are exposed to extreme conditions, including high temperature and rapid cosmic expansion. Understanding their behavior in this…
We discuss the significance and the calculation of dephasing at low temperatures. The particle is moving diffusively due to a static disorder configuration, while the interference between classical paths is suppressed due to the interaction…
The method to calculate the grand partition function of a particle system, in which constituents interact with each other via potential, that include repulsive and attractive components, is proposed. The cell model, which was introduced to…
We study symmetry restoration at finite temperature in the theory of a charged scalar field interacting with a constant, external magnetic field. We compute the finite temperature effective potential including the contribution from ring…
We show that it is possible to replace the actual implicit distribution function of the fractional exclusion statistics by an explicit one whose form does not change with the parameter $\alpha$. This alternative simpler distribution…
New techniques for evaluating the closed time path action for non-equilibrium quantum fields are presented. A derivative expansion is performed using a proper time kernel. Applications relevant to the scalar field theory of warm inflation…
In order to analyze spectrum from the interstellar medium (ISM), spectrum of the molecule of interest is recorded in a laboratory, and accurate rotational and centrifugal distortion constants are derived. By using these constants, one can…
This thesis is devoted to studying two tasks: refrigeration and the creation of correlations. In the refrigeration part, two different paradigms of cooling, namely coherent and incoherent, are defined. The connection that these paradigms…
We discuss the vacuum energy of a quantized scalar field in the presence of classical surfaces, defining bounded domains $\Omega \subset {\mathbb{R}}^{d}$, where the field satisfies ideal or non-ideal boundary conditions. For the…
There are problems with defining the thermodynamic limit of systems with long-range interactions; as a result, the thermodynamic behavior of these types of systems is anomalous. In the present work, we review some concepts from both…
We consider the behaviour of holomorphic functions on a bounded open subset of the plane, satisfying a Lipschitz condition with exponent $\alpha$, with $0<\alpha<1$, in the vicinity of an exceptional boundary point where all such functions…
The partition function with ring diagrams at finite temperature is exactly caluclated by using contour integrals in the complex energy plane. It contains a pole part with temperature and momentum dependent mass and a phase shift part…
In this paper, an improved quasi-particle model is presented. Unlike the previous approach of establishing quasi-particle model, we introduce a classical background field (it is allowed to depend on the temperature) to deal with the…
The relativistic complex scalar field at finite temperature and in presence of a net conserved charge is studied in reference to recent developments on the multiplicative anomaly. This quantity, overlooked until now, is computed and it is…
We study quantum Hall effect within the framework of a newly proposed approach, which captures the principal results of some proposals. This can be established by considering a system of particles living on the non-commutative plane in the…
Combining classical electrodynamics and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we develop a general and rigorous theoretical framework that describes the energetics of metal surfaces under high electric fields. We show that the…
We study a log-gas on a network (a finite, simple graph) confined in a bounded subset of a local field (i.e. R, C, Q_{p} the field of p-adic numbers). In this gas, a log-Coulomb interaction between two charged particles occurs only when the…
We study a stationary state of a single self-propelled, athermal particle in linear and quadratic external potentials. The self-propulsion is modeled as a fluctuating force evolving according to the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process, independently…
Extending the partition function multiplicatively to a function on partitions, we show that it has a unique maximum at an explicitly given partition for any $n\neq 7$. The basis for this is an inequality for the partition function which…
