Quasi-diagonal inhomogeneous closure for classical and quantum statistical dynamics

Abstract

The Quasi-diagonal Direct Interaction Approximation (QDIA) closure equations are formulated for inhomogeneous classical and quantum fields interacting through dynamical equations with quadratic nonlinearity and with first or second-order time derivatives. Associated more complex inhomogeneous DIA and Self-energy closure equations are expounded as part of the derivation. The QDIA employs a bare vertex approximation and is only a few times more computationally intensive than the homogeneous DIA. Examples of applications to turbulent classical geophysical and Navier Stokes fluids, including non-Gaussian noise, to classical and quantum Klein-Gordon equations with gϕ3 Lagrangian interaction, and to coupled field-auxiliary field equations associated with λϕ4 Lagrangian interaction are presented.
