A formalism for quantum many-body systems is proposed through a semiclassical treatment in phase space, allowing us to establish a stochastic thermodynamics incorporating quantum statistics. Specifically, we utilize a stochastic…
We calculate the partition function of a harmonic oscillator with quasi-periodic boundary conditions using the zeta-function method. This work generalizes a previous one by Gibbons and contains the usual bosonic and fermionic oscillators as…
Recent experiments have shown that rising the temperature of a dipolar gas under certain conditions leads to a transition to a supersolid state. Here, we employ the path integral Monte Carlo method, which exactly accounts for both thermal…
In this work we present a formalism to describe non equilibrium conditions in systems with a discretized energy spectrum, such as quantum systems. We develop a formalism based on a combination of Gibbs-Shannon entropy and information…
A more accurate semiclassical theory for ultracold gases is derived, in which the occupation of high energy modes is dynamically constrained to the Bose-Einstein distribution. This regularized version of the SGPE model preserves the proper…
The path-integral quantization of thermal scalar, vector and spinor fields is performed newly in the coherent-state representation. In doing this, we choose the thermal electrodynamics and $\phi ^4$ theory as examples. By this quantization,…
Perturbation theory, the quasiclassical approximation and the quantum surface of section method are combined for the first time. This solves the long standing problem of quantizing the resonances and chaotic regions generically appearing in…
By revisiting the path-integral formulation of the Hubbard model, we propose a theoretical approach based on a semiclassical approximation employing an unconventional coherent-state representation. Within this framework, a subset of the…
Using the quantum Hamiltonian for a gravitational system with boundary, we find the partition function and derive the resulting thermodynamics. The Hamiltonian is the boundary term required by functional differentiability of the action for…
The eigenstate thermalization hypothesis provides to date the most successful description of thermalization in isolated quantum systems by conjecturing statistical properties of matrix elements of typical operators in the (quasi-)energy…
Semiclassical transition probabilities characterize transfer of energy between "hard" and "soft" modes in various physical systems. We establish the boundary problem for singular euclidean solutions used to calculate such probabilities.…
Thermal escape out of a metastable well is considered in the weak friction regime, where the bottleneck for decay is energy diffusion, and at lower temperatures, where quantum tunneling becomes relevant. Within a systematic semiclassical…
A continuous infinite system of point particles with strong superstable interaction is considered in the framework of classical statistical mechanics. The family of approximated correlation functions is determined in such a way, that they…
We study the semiclassical behaviour of a two--dimensional nonintegrable system. In particular we analyze the question of quantum corrections to the semiclassical quantization obtaining up to the second order of perturbation theory an…
We show that a semi-classical quantum field theory comes with a versal family with the property that the corresponding partition function generates all path integrals and satisfies a system of 2nd order differential equations determined by…
Motivated by recent experimental progress to read out quantum bits implemented in superconducting circuits via the phenomenon of dynamical bifurcation, transitions between steady orbits in a driven anharmonic oscillator, the Duffing…
We derive the hard thermal loop action for soft electromagnetic fields in the finite temperature world-line formulation at imaginary time, by first integrating out the hard fermion modes from the microscopic QED action. Further, using the…
We introduce a classical algorithm to approximate the free energy of local, translation-invariant, one-dimensional quantum systems in the thermodynamic limit of infinite chain size. While the ground state problem (i.e., the free energy at…
The microcanonical effective partition function, constructed from a Feynman-Hibbs potential, is derived using generalized ensemble theory. The form of the effective Hamiltonian is amenable to Monte Carlo simulation techniques and the…
We carefully examine the thermodynamic consequences of the repeated partial projection model for coupling a quantum system to an arbitrary series of environments under feedback control. This paper provides observational definitions of heat…
