Stationary states of quantum many-body Hamiltonians are invariant under the Hamiltonian evolution. Besides ground and thermal states, this class includes microcanonical ensembles that are of fundamental importance in statistical physics. We…
We present a procedure for averaging one-parameter random unitary groups and random self-adjoint groups. Central to this is a generalization of the notion of weak convergence of a sequence of measures and the corresponding generalization of…
We provide an overview of a canonical formalism that describes mixed quantum-classical systems in terms of statistical ensembles on configuration space, and discuss applications to measurement theory. It is shown that the formalism allows a…
We consider the problem of whether the canonical and microcanonical ensembles are locally equivalent for short-ranged quantum Hamiltonians of $N$ spins arranged on a $d$-dimensional lattices. For any temperature for which the system has a…
We investigate different measures of stability of quantum statistical ensembles with respect to local measurements. We call a quantum statistical ensemble "stable" if a small number of local measurements cannot significantly modify the…
The so-called $\chi^{2}$-superstatistics of Beck and Cohen (BC) is employed to investigate the infinite-range Blume-Capel model, a well-known representative system displaying inequivalence of canonical and microcanonical phase diagrams.…
In statistical physics, the challenging combinatorial enumeration of the configurations of a system subject to hard constraints (microcanonical ensemble) is mapped to a mathematically easier calculation where the constraints are softened…
We derive an upper bound on the difference between the long-time average and the microcanonical ensemble average of observables in isolated quantum systems. We propose, numerically verify, and analytically support a new hypothesis,…
Generalized superstatistics, i.e., a "statistics of superstatistics," is proposed. A generalized superstatistical system comprises a set of superstatistical subsystems and represents a generalized hyperensemble. There exists a random…
We investigate the equilibration of an isolated macroscopic quantum system in the sense that deviations from a steady state become unmeasurably small for the overwhelming majority of times within any sufficiently large time interval. The…
Focusing on isolated macroscopic systems, described either in terms of a quantum mechanical or a classical model, our two key questions are: In how far does an initial ensemble (usually far from equilibrium and largely unknown in detail)…
An explicit expression is derived for the statistical description of small quantum systems, which are relatively-weakly and directly coupled to only small parts of their environments. The derived expression has a canonical form, but is…
We study the universal structure of late-time ensembles obtained from unitary dynamics in quantum chaotic systems with symmetries, such as charge or energy conservation. We find that although quantum states do not ergodically explore the…
This paper reviews a number of fundamental connections that exist between nonequivalent microcanonical and canonical ensembles, the appearance of first-order phase transitions in the canonical ensemble, and thermodynamic metastable…
After reviewing some fundamental results derived from the introduction of the generalized Gibbs canonical ensemble, such as the called thermodynamic uncertainty relation, it is described a physical scenario where such a generalized ensemble…
In biomolecular systems (especially all-atom models) with many degrees of freedom such as proteins and nucleic acids, there exist an astronomically large number of local-minimum-energy states. Conventional simulations in the canonical…
We study the dynamics of quantum statistical ensembles at first-order phase transition points of finite macroscopic systems. First, we show that at the first-order phase transition point of systems with an order parameter that does not…
The extended Gaussian ensemble introduced recently as a generalization of the canonical ensemble, which allows to treat energy fluctuations present in the system, is used to analyze the inelasticity distributions in high energy…
In complex systems with many degrees of freedom such as spin glass and biomolecular systems, conventional simulations in canonical ensemble suffer from the quasi-ergodicity problem. A simulation in generalized ensemble performs a random…
Recently, the full version of the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis (ETH) has been systematized using Free Probability. In this paper, we present a detailed discussion of the Free Cumulants approach to many-body dynamics within the…
