Quantum corrections to the Wigner crystal: A Hartree-Fock expansion
The quantum corrections to the two-dimensional Wigner crystal, for filling \ensuremath{\nu}\ensuremath{\le}1/3, are discussed by using a Hartree-Fock expansion based on wave functions which are (i) related to one another by magnetic translations, (ii) orthonormal, and (iii) strongly localized. Such wave functions are constructed in terms of Gaussians that are localized at the sites of a triangular (Wigner) lattice and have a small overlap c. The ground-state energy per particle is calculated by an expansion in \ensuremath{\surd}\ensuremath{\nu} and in \ensuremath{\delta}\ensuremath{\equiv}${\mathit{c}}^{1/4}$, which is rapidly convergent and stable under the thermodynamical limit. In partic…
(H,ρ)-induced dynamics and large time behaviors
In some recent papers, the so called (H,ρ)-induced dynamics of a system S whose time evolution is deduced adopting an operatorial approach, borrowed in part from quantum mechanics, has been introduced. Here, H is the Hamiltonian for S, while ρ is a certain rule applied periodically (or not) on S. The analysis carried on throughout this paper shows that, replacing the Heisenberg dynamics with the (H,ρ)-induced one, we obtain a simple, and somehow natural, way to prove that some relevant dynamical variables of S may converge, for large t, to certain asymptotic values. This cannot be so, for finite dimensional systems, if no rule is considered. In this case, in fact, any Heisenberg dynamics im…
Reply to Comment on "A no-go result for the quantum damped harmonic oscillator"
In a recent paper, \cite{deguchi}, Deguchi and Fujiwara claim that our results in \cite{BGR} are wrong, and compute what they claim is the square integrable vacuum of their annihilation operators. In this brief note, we show that their vacuum is indeed not a vacuum, and we try to explain what is behind their mistake. We also consider a very simple example clarifying the core of the problem.
CQ*-algebras: Structure properties
Some structure properties of CQ*-algebras are investigated. The usual multiplication of a quasi *-algebra is generalized by introducing a weak- and strong product. The *-semisemplicity is defined via a suitable family of positive sesquilinear forms and some consequences of this notion are derived. The basic elements of a functional calculus on these partial algebraic structures are discussed.
The Role of a Second Reservoir in an Open BCS Model
In this paper we use the stochastic limit approach (SLA) in order to analyze some generalized versions of the open BCS model first introduced by Buffet and Martin and recently analyzed by the author using the SLA. In particular, considering different models, we discuss the role of a second reservoir interacting with the first one (but not with the system) in the computation of the critical temperature corresponding to the transition from a normal to a superconducting phase.
Three-state quantum systems: A procedure for the solution
An iterative method to obtain a solution of the differential equation $$i\dot a = \hat H(t)a$$ , with Ĥ a 3×3 Hermitian matrix anda the unknown vector, is proposed. The procedure is particularly suitable for computer implementation and, as an example, has been applied to find the excitation probability of a three-level atom after the synchronous passage of two laser pulses each almost resonant with a pair of atomic levels.
Extension of representations in quasi *-algebras
Let $(A, A_o)$ be a topological quasi *-algebra, which means in particular that $A_o$ is a topological *-algebra, dense in $A$. Let $\pi^o$ be a *-representation of $A_o$ in some pre-Hilbert space ${\cal D} \subset {\cal H}$. Then we present several ways of extending $\pi^o$, by closure, to some larger quasi *-algebra contained in $A$, either by Hilbert space operators, or by sesquilinear forms on ${\cal D}$. Explicit examples are discussed, both abelian and nonabelian, including the CCR algebra.
A Note on the algebraic approach to the «almost» mean-field Heisenberg model
We generalize to an «almost» mean-field Heisenberg model the algebraic approach already formulated for Ising models. We show that there exists a family of «relevant» states on which the algebraic dynamics αt can be defined. © 1993 Società Italiana di Fisica.
$$\mathscr {D}{-}$$ D - Deformed and SUSY-Deformed Graphene: First Results
We discuss some mathematical aspects of two particular deformed versions of the Dirac Hamiltonian for graphene close to the Dirac points, one involving \(\mathscr {D}\)-pseudo bosons and the other supersymmetric quantum mechanics. In particular, in connection with \(\mathscr {D}\)-pseudo bosons, we show how biorthogonal sets arise, and we discuss when these sets are bases for the Hilbert space where the model is defined, and when they are not. For the SUSY extension of the model we show how this can be achieved and which results can be obtained.
