Some recent investigations of the thermal equilibrium properties of kinks in a $1+1$-dimensional, classical $\Phi^4$ field theory are reviewed. The distribution function, kink density, correlation function, and certain thermodynamic…
We suggest a method to compute approximations to temporal correlation functions of few-body observables in chaotic many-body systems in the thermodynamic limit based on the respective Lanczos coefficients. Given the knowledge of these…
Variational calculations using Gaussian wave functionals combined with an approximate projection on gauge invariant states are presented. We find that the energy exhibits a minimum for a wave functional centered around a non vanishing…
Results from higher order mean field calculations of light interacting with atom arrays are presented for calculations of one- and two-time expectation values. The atoms are approximated as two-levels and are fixed in space. Calculations…
Most present applications of time-dependent density functional theory use adiabatic functionals, i.e. the effective potential at time t is determined solely by the density at the same time. This paper discusses a method that aims to go…
We address several estimation problems in quantum optics by means of the maximum-likelihood principle. We consider Gaussian state estimation and the determination of the coupling parameters of quadratic Hamiltonians. Moreover, we analyze…
The fidelity of a quantum transformation is strongly linked with the prior partial information of the state to be transformed. We illustrate this interesting point by proposing and demonstrating the superior cloning of coherent states with…
Time-dependent correlation functions of (unstable) particles undergoing biased or unbiased diffusion, coagulation and annihilation are calculated. This is achieved by similarity transformations between different stochastic models and…
We investigate the possibility to deduce momentum space properties from time-dependent density functional calculations. Electron and ion momentum distributions after double ionization of a model Helium atom in a strong few-cycle laser pulse…
We present a method that permits the calculation of the dynamical correlation functions for quantum systems. These are obtained by evaluating the generating functionals of the static moments of the relaxation functions in a self-consistent…
New time dependent Wigner functions for the quantum harmonic oscillator have been obtained in this work. The Moyal equation for the harmonic oscillator has been presented as the wave equation of a 2D membrane in the phase plane. The values…
We analyze the quality of the gaussian approximation to linear combinations of n independent, identically-distributed random variables with finite fourth moments. It turns out that there exist universal, simple linear combinations that…
The paper addresses the problem of relaxation of open quantum systems. Using the path integral methods we found an analytical expression for time-dependent density matrix of two coupled quantum oscillators interacting with different baths…
In this work, we present a compact analytical approximation for the quantum partition function of systems composed of quantum oscillators. The proposed formula is general and applicable to an arbitrary number of oscillators described by a…
A simple variational Lagrangian is proposed for the time development of an arbitrary density matrix, employing the "factorization" of the density. Only the "kinetic energy" appears in the Lagrangian. The formalism applies to pure and mixed…
In recent works, we have shown how $n$-point correlation functions in perturbative QFT can be computed without running into intermediate divergences. Here we want to illustrate explicitly that one can calculate the quantum effective…
We investigate the Dirac time-dependent variational method using a Gaussian trial functional for an infinite one dimensional system of Bosons interacting through a repulsive contact interaction. The method produces a set of non-linear time…
Derivation of the procedures that can be applied in evaluating two-time correlation function in terms of coherent-state propagator and corresponding Q-function is presented. On the basis that the involved functions are generally exponential…
Context: Two-point correlation functions are used throughout cosmology as a measure for the statistics of random fields. When used in Bayesian parameter estimation, their likelihood function is usually replaced by a Gaussian approximation.…
We present a new class of non-adiabatic approximations in time-dependent density functional theory derived from an exact expression for the time-dependent exchange-correlation potential. The approximations reproduce dynamical step and peak…
