We analyse a 3-wave kinetic equation, derived from the elastic beam wave equation on the lattice. The ergodicity condition states that two distinct wavevectors are supposed to be connected by a finite number of collisions. In this work, we…

In this paper, we test and extend a proposal of Gu, Pei, and Zhang for an application of decomposition to three-dimensional theories with one-form symmetries and to quantum K theory. The theories themselves do not decompose, but, OPEs of…

I review arguments demonstrating how the concept of "particle" numbers arises in the form of equidistant energy eigenvalues of coupled harmonic oscillators representing free fields. Their quantum numbers (numbers of nodes of the wave…

The Whitham equation is a model for the evolution of surface waves on shallow water that combines the unidirectional linear dispersion relation of the Euler equations with a weakly nonlinear approximation based on the KdV equation. We show…

It often goes unnoticed that, even for a finite number of degrees of freedom, the canonical commutation relations have many inequivalent irreducible unitary representations; the free particle and a particle in a box provide examples that…

The properties which give quantum mechanics its unique character - unitarity, complementarity, non-commutativity, uncertainty, nonlocality - derive from the algebraic structure of Hermitian operators acting on the wavefunction in complex…

Wavefunction collapse is usually seen as a discontinuous violation of the unitary evolution of a quantum system, caused by the observation. Moreover, the collapse appears to be nonlocal in a sense which seems at odds with General…

In a prior paper, the author described an instability in a nonlinear wavefunction model. Proposed in connection with the Measurement Problem, the model contained an external potential creating a ``classical'' instability. However, it is…

We study thermodynamic formalism of dynamical systems with non-uniform structure. Precisely, we obtain the uniqueness of equilibrium states for a family of non-uniformly expansive flows by generalizing Climenhaga-Thompson's orbit…

A single mechanism, endemic to the standard model of physics, is proposed to explain wavefunction collapse, classical motion, dissipation, equilibration, and the transition from pure quantum mechanics through open system decoherence to the…

In this work, we introduce a new space-time variational formulation of the second-order wave equation, where integration by parts is also applied with respect to the time variable, and a modified Hilbert transformation is used. For this…

The definition of a quantum system requires a Hilbert space, a way to define the dynamics, and an algebra of observables. The structure of the observable algebra is related to a tensor product decomposition of the Hilbert space and…

In this paper, we suppose a possible extension of Gibbs ensemble theory so that it can provide a reasonable description to phase transitions and spontaneous symmetry breaking. The extension is founded on three hypotheses, and can be…

We observe that the Schrodinger equation may be written as two real coupled Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ)-like equations, each involving a quantum potential. Developing our established programme of representing the quantum state through exact…

We consider the problem of separability: decide whether a Hermitian operator on a finite dimensional Hilbert tensor product is separable or entangled. We show that the tensor convolution defined for certain mappings on an almost arbitrary…

In a two-part system the "collapse of the wavefunction" of one part can put the other part in a state which would be difficult or impossible to achieve otherwise, in particular one sensitive to small effects in the `collapse' interaction.…

Let A be a unital C* algebra with involution * represented in a Hilbert space H, G the group of invertible elements of A, U the unitary group of A, G^s the set of invertible selfadjoint elements of A, Q={e in G : e^2 = 1} the space of…

Gleason's theorem asserts the equivalence of von Neumann's density operator formalism of quantum mechanics and frame functions, which are functions on the pure states that sum to 1 on any orthonormal basis of Hilbert space of dimension at…

Condensed matter physics at room temperature usually assumes that electrons in conductors can be described as spatially narrow wave packets - in contrast to what the Schr\"odinger equation would predict. How a finite-temperature environment…

This paper focuses on the complex relationship between Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle and the nodal structure of wave functions in a variety of quantum systems including the quantum harmonic oscillator, the particle in a 1D box , and…
