ANALISIS FUNGSI KORELASI KLASIK DAN KUANTUM UNTUK MODEL CINCIN: SEBUAH REVIEW

A review of the journal entitled 'Classical And Quantum Correlation Functions For A Ring Model' has been carried out which discusses the solutions of classical and quantum correlation functions for the ring model. Classical and quantum correlation functions are derived for systems of non-interacting particles moving in a circle. demonstrated that the decay behavior of the classical expression for the correlation function can be recovered from a strictly periodic quantum mechanical expression by taking the limit ℏ→0, after the appropriate transformation. The aim of this study is to present clearly and in detail how the position correlation function for a system of particles moving in a circle having a certain average energy and written in a form which shows the nature of the transformation. Next, we examine the use of Poisson addition to represent F(z), and how the correlation function becomes identical to the form given by classical statistical mechanics, which exhibits Gaussian decay. The results of this study indicate that the positional correlation function for a system of particles moving in a circle, and having a certain average energy, can be written in a form which shows the nature of the transformation. Then using the Poisson addition formula to represent F(z), the expression is rewritten to enable the limit ℏ→0 to be taken. It was finally found that the correlation function became identical to the form given by classical statistical mechanics, which exhibits a Gaussian decay.

Current fluctuations in stochastically resetting particle systems.

We consider a system of noninteracting particles on a line with initial positions distributed uniformly with density ρ on the negative half-line. We consider two different models: (i) Each particle performs independent Brownian motion with stochastic resetting to its initial position with rate r and (ii) each particle performs run-and-tumble motion, and with rate r its position gets reset to its initial value and simultaneously its velocity gets randomized. We study the effects of resetting on the distribution P(Q,t) of the integrated particle current Q up to time t through the origin (from left to right). We study both the annealed and the quenched current distributions and in both cases, we find that resetting induces a stationary limiting distribution of the current at long times. However, we show that the approach to the stationary state of the current distribution in the annealed and the quenched cases are drastically different for both models. In the annealed case, the whole distribution P_{an}(Q,t) approaches its stationary limit uniformly for all Q. In contrast, the quenched distribution P_{qu}(Q,t) attains its stationary form for Q<Q_{crit}(t), while it remains time dependent for Q>Q_{crit}(t). We show that Q_{crit}(t) increases linearly with t for large t. On the scale where Q∼Q_{crit}(t), we show that P_{qu}(Q,t) has an unusual large deviation form with a rate function that has a third-order phase transition at the critical point. We have computed the associated rate functions analytically for both models. Using an importance sampling method that allows to probe probabilities as tiny as 10^{-14000}, we were able to compute numerically this nonanalytic rate function for the resetting Brownian dynamics and found excellent agreement with our analytical prediction.

Probing many-body effects in harmonic traps with twisted light

We explore the potential of twisted light, a structured beam carrying orbital angular momentum, as a tool to unveil many-body effects in parabolically confined systems. According to the generalized Kohn theorem, the dipole response of such a multiparticle system to a spatially homogeneous probe is indistinguishable from the response of a system of noninteracting particles. Twisted light however can excite internal degrees of freedom, resulting in the appearance of new peaks in the multipole spectrum which are not present when the probe is a plane wave. We also demonstrate the ability of the proposed twisted light probe to capture the transition of interacting fermions into a strongly correlated regime in a one-dimensional harmonic trap. We report that, by suitable choice of the probe's parameters, the transition into a strongly correlated phase manifests itself as an approaching and ultimate superposition of peaks in the second-order quadrupole response. These features are observed in exact calculations for two electrons and well reproduced in adiabatic time-dependent density-functional theory simulations.

INVARIANT RELATIVISTIC THEORY OF IDEAL GAS

The purpose of this study is to develop an original theory of a relativistic ideal gas and to prove the validity of the postulate of the special theory of relativity for the characteristic (i.e., arithmetic mean, root-mean-square) velocities of particles of a relativistic ideal gas even in the massless limit. In this work, the following original methods are used for the first time in the theory of a relativistic ideal gas: the method of nonlinear transformation to prove of the distribution function to find the distribution function of the velocities of particles of a relativistic ideal gas; the equation of state of a relativistic ideal gas was first obtained by averaging the relativistic - invariant components of the energy - momentum tensor of a system of noninteracting particles, i.e. ideal gas by the distribution function of the velocities of their particles. The uniqueness and definiteness of the distribution function of the velocities of the particles of a relativistic ideal gas are proved on the basis of the well-known relativistic invariance of the distribution function. For the first time, expressions were obtained for the arithmetic mean and mean square velocities of particles of a relativistic ideal gas. For the first time, a fundamental conclusion is made about the validity of the postulates of the special theory of relativity for the characteristic velocities of particles of a relativistic ideal gas. An equation of state for a relativistic ideal gas is obtained, which relates its pressure, average energy density and temperature.

Large Deviations and Gradient Flows for the Brownian One-Dimensional Hard-Rod System

We study a system of hard rods of finite size in one space dimension, which move by Brownian noise while avoiding overlap. We consider a scaling in which the number of particles tends to infinity while the volume fraction of the rods remains constant; in this limit the empirical measure of the rod positions converges almost surely to a deterministic limit evolution. We prove a large-deviation principle on path space for the empirical measure, by exploiting a one-to-one mapping between the hard-rod system and a system of non-interacting particles on a contracted domain. The large-deviation principle naturally identifies a gradient-flow structure for the limit evolution, with clear interpretations for both the driving functional (an ‘entropy’) and the dissipation, which in this case is the Wasserstein dissipation. This study is inspired by recent developments in the continuum modelling of multiple-species interacting particle systems with finite-size effects; for such systems many different modelling choices appear in the literature, raising the question how one can understand such choices in terms of more microscopic models. The results of this paper give a clear answer to this question, albeit for the simpler one-dimensional hard-rod system. For this specific system this result provides a clear understanding of the value and interpretation of different modelling choices, while giving hints for more general systems.

Open Markov Chains: Cumulant Dynamics, Fluctuations and Correlations.

In this work we propose a model for open Markov chains that can be interpreted as a system of non-interacting particles evolving according to the rules of a Markov chain. The number of particles in the system is not constant, because we allow the particles to arrive or leave the state space according to prescribed protocols. We describe this system by looking at the population of particles on every state by establishing the rules of time-evolution of the distribution of particles. We show that it is possible to describe the distribution of particles over the state space through the corresponding moment generating function. This description is given through the dynamics ruling the behavior of such a moment generating function and we prove that the system is able to attain the stationarity under some conditions. We also show that it is possible to describe the dynamics of the two first cumulants of the distribution of particles, which in some way is a simpler technique to obtain useful information of the open Markov chain for practical purposes. Finally we also study the behavior of the time-dependent correlation functions of the number of particles present in the system. We give some simple examples of open chains that either, can be fully described through the moment generating function or partially described through the exact solution of the cumulant dynamics.

Supersymmetry method for interacting chaotic and disordered systems: The Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model

The nonlinear supermatrix $\sigma $-model is widely used to understand the physics of Anderson localization and the level statistics in noninteracting disordered electron systems. In contrast to the general belief that the supersymmetry method applies only to systems of noninteracting particles, we adopt this approach to the disorder averaging in the interacting models. In particular, we apply supersymmetry to study the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model, where the disorder averaging has so far been performed only within the replica approach. We use a slightly modified, time-reversal invariant version of the SYK model and perform calculations in real-time. As a demonstration of how the supersymmetry method works, we derive saddle point equations. In the semiclassical limit, we show that the results are in agreement with those found using the replica technique. We also develop the formally exact superbosonized representation of the SYK model. In the latter, the supersymmetric theory of original fermions and their superpartner bosons is reformulated as a model of unconstrained collective excitations. We argue that the supersymmetry description of the model paves the way for precise calculations in SYK-like models used in condensed matter, gravity, and high energy physics.

Is an interacting ground state (pure state) v-representable density also non-interacting ground state v-representable by a Slater determinant? In the absence of degeneracy, yes!

It is shown that in the absence of degeneracy a density, n(r), describing the probability of finding a particle in a small volume at position, r, that is known to be pure-state v-representable in terms of the ground state of an interacting system of particles evolving under an external potential, v(r), is also pure state v-representable in terms of a single Slater determinant describing the ground state of a system of non-interacting particles under a potential, vs(r). This establishes the validity of the Kohn–Sham formalism of density functional theory. An explicit form of vs(r) is derived. We also derive the exact form of the correlation functional and the corresponding potential, μc(r), that lead to the exact density and energy of an interacting system's ground state. In addition, we demonstrate the existence of a one-to-one mapping between the ground-state densities of non-degenerate interacting and non-interacting systems. Finally, we show that practical implementations of the Kohn–Sham formalism can generate neither the exact density nor energy of an interacting system's ground state, a feature that is particularly true in the case of the so-called exact exchange, in which the correlation functional and potential are set equal to zero.

Dean-Kawasaki dynamics: ill-posedness vs. triviality

We prove that the Dean-Kawasaki SPDE admits a solution only in integer parameter regimes, in which case the solution is given in terms of a system of non-interacting particles.

Clustering, intermittency, and scaling for passive particles on fluctuating surfaces

We show that a scaling approach successfully characterizes clustering and intermittency in space and time, in systems of noninteracting particles driven by fluctuating surfaces. We study both the steady state and the approach to it, for passive particles sliding on one-dimensional Edwards-Wilkinson or Kardar-Parisi-Zhang surfaces, with particles moving either along or against the growth direction in the latter case. Extensive numerical simulations are supplemented by analytical results for a sticky slider model in which particles coalesce when they meet. Results for single particle displacement versus time show to what extent particle dynamics is slaved to the surface, while scaling properties of the probability distribution of the separation of two particles have important implications for replica symmetry breaking for a pair of trajectories. For the many-particle system, clustering in steady state is studied via moments of particle number fluctuations in a single stretch, revealing different degrees of spatial multiscaling with different driving. Temporal intermittency in steady state is established by showing that the scaled flatness diverges. Finally we consider the approach to the steady state, and study both the flatness and the evolution of equal-time correlation functions, as in coarsening of phase ordering systems. Our studies give clear evidence for a simple scaling description of the approach to steady state, with a diverging length scale. An investigation of aging properties reveals that flatness is nonmonotonic in time with two distinct branches, and that a scaling description holds for each one.

Quantum transport under ac drive from the leads: A Redfield quantum master equation approach

Evaluating the time-dependent dynamics of driven open quantum systems is relevant for a theoretical description of many systems, including molecular junctions, quantum dots, cavity-QED experiments, cold atoms experiments and more. Here, we formulate a rigorous microscopic theory of an out-of-equilibrium open quantum system of non-interacting particles on a lattice weakly coupled to multiple baths and driven by periodically varying thermodynamic parameters like temperature and chemical potential of the bath. The particles can be either bosonic or fermionic and the lattice can be of any dimension and geometry. Based on Redfield quantum master equation under Born-Markov approximation, we derive a complete set of linear differential equations for equal time two-point correlation functions from which various physical observables, for example, current, can be calculated. Various interesting physical effects, such as resonance, can be directly read-off from the equations. Thus, our theory is quite general gives quite transparent and easy-to-calculate results. We validate our theory by comparing with exact numerical simulations. We apply our method to a generic open quantum system, namely a double-quantum dot coupled to leads with modulating chemical potentials. Two most important experimentally relevant insights from this are : (i) time-dependent measurements of current for symmetric oscillating voltages (with zero instantaneous voltage bias) can point to the degree of asymmetry in the system, and (ii) under certain conditions, time-dependent currents can exceed time-averaged currents by several orders of magnitude, and can therefore be detected even when the average current is below the measurement threshold.

DIMENSION‐FREE UNIFORMITY WITH APPLICATIONS, I

We prove a dimension-free strong uniformity theorem, and apply it in the configuration space of a large system of non-interacting particles, to describe the fast approach to equilibrium starting from off-equilibrium, and its long-term stability.

The Role of Entropy in Nanoparticle Agglomeration.

Agglomeration processes in non-interacting particle systems can be understood from a thermodynamic point of view. If the enthalpy of agglomeration is negligible, the distribution of agglomeration states adopts the state of highest entropy. Herein, we provide the exact analytical solution to the mole fractions of agglomerates comprising i monomers, xi =2-i .

Density waves in a system of non-interacting particles

An ensemble of non-interacting bouncing balls being acted on by a constant gravitational force, starting at rest from a uniform density distribution, will develop a structure of sharply peaked density waves. We describe these waves by computing the density profile of such a system analytically, and we find that the analytical results are in good agreement with numerical findings. We suggest that in a real system, these density waves could be used to produce measurements of the strength of a gravitational field.

Density and velocity distribution function for freely expanding matter

For a system of noninteracting particles being initially in a spherical volume of a given radius, the density evolution and the distribution function are considered for various initial conditions. In particular, the conditions under which the density during free expansion of a sphere-shaped cloud of noninteracting particles remains spatially constant, while the boundary remains sharp, are determined. Alternative variants of free spherically symmetric expansion of a particle cloud are considered. The results of this consideration are applicable to various problems of the centrosymmetric explosion, and have astrophysical applications.

Out-of-equilibrium open quantum systems: A comparison of approximate quantum master equation approaches with exact results

We present the Born-Markov approximated Redfield quantum master equation (RQME) description for an open system of non-interacting particles (bosons or fermions) on an arbitrary lattice of $N$ sites in any dimension and weakly connected to multiple reservoirs at different temperatures and chemical potentials. The RQME can be reduced to the Lindblad equation, of various forms, by making further approximations. By studying the $N=2$ case, we show that RQME gives results which agree with exact analytical results for steady state properties and with exact numerics for time-dependent properties, over a wide range of parameters. In comparison, the Lindblad equations have a limited domain of validity in non-equilibrium. We conclude that it is indeed justified to use microscopically derived full RQME to go beyond the limitations of Lindblad equations in out-of-equilibrium systems. We also derive closed form analytical results for out-of-equilibrium time dynamics of two-point correlation functions. These results explicitly show the approach to steady state and thermalization. These results are experimentally relevant for cold atoms, cavity QED and far-from-equilibrium quantum dot experiments.

Saturation of number variance in embedded random-matrix ensembles

We study fluctuation properties of embedded random matrix ensembles of noninteracting particles. For ensemble of two noninteracting particle systems, we find that unlike the spectra of classical random matrices, correlation functions are nonstationary. In the locally stationary region of spectra, we study the number variance and the spacing distributions. The spacing distributions follow the Poisson statistics, which is a key behavior of uncorrelated spectra. The number variance varies linearly as in the Poisson case for short correlation lengths but a kind of regularization occurs for large correlation lengths, and the number variance approaches saturation values. These results are known in the study of integrable systems but are being demonstrated for the first time in random matrix theory. We conjecture that the interacting particle cases, which exhibit the characteristics of classical random matrices for short correlation lengths, will also show saturation effects for large correlation lengths.

Generalization of the Kohn-Sham system that can represent arbitrary one-electron density matrices

Density functional theory is currently the most widely applied method in electronic structure theory. The Kohn-Sham method, based on a fictitious system of non-interacting particles, is the work horse of the theory. The particular form of the Kohn-Sham wavefunction admits only idem-potent one electron density matrices whereas wavefunctions of correlated electrons in post-Hartree-Fock methods invariably have fractional occupation numbers. Here we show that by generalizing the orbital concept, and introducing a suitable dot-product as well as a probability density a non-interacting system can be chosen that can represent the one-electron density matrix of any system, even one with fractional occupation numbers. This fictitious system ensures that the exact electron density is accessible within density functional theory. It can also serve as the basis for reduced density matrix functional theory. Moreover, to aid the analysis of the results the orbitals may be assigned energies from a mean-field Hamiltonian. This produces energy levels that are akin to Hartree-Fock orbital energies such that conventional analyses based on Koopmans theorem are available. Finally, this system is convenient in formalisms that depend on creation and annihilation operators as they are trivially applied to single determinant wavefunctions.

Multiparticle Correlations in Mesoscopic Scattering: Boson Sampling, Birthday Paradox, and Hong-Ou-Mandel Profiles.

The interplay between single-particle interference and quantum indistinguishability leads to signature correlations in many-body scattering. We uncover these with a semiclassical calculation of the transmission probabilities through mesoscopic cavities for systems of noninteracting particles. For chaotic cavities we provide the universal form of the first two moments of the transmission probabilities over ensembles of random unitary matrices, including weak localization and dephasing effects. If the incoming many-body state consists of two macroscopically occupied wave packets, their time delay drives a quantum-classical transition along a boundary determined by the bosonic birthday paradox. Mesoscopic chaotic scattering of Bose-Einstein condensates is, then, a realistic candidate to build a boson sampler and to observe the macroscopic Hong-Ou-Mandel effect.

Exact probability distribution for the two-tag displacement in single-file motion

We consider a gas of point particles moving on the one-dimensional line with a hard-core inter-particle interaction that prevents particle crossings—this is usually referred to as single-file motion. The individual particle dynamics can be arbitrary and they only interact when they meet. Starting from initial conditions such that particles are uniformly distributed, we observe the displacement of a tagged particle at time t, with respect to the initial position of another tagged particle, such that their tags differ by r. For r = 0, this is the usual well studied problem of the tagged particle motion. Using a mapping to a non-interacting particle system we compute the exact probability distribution function for the two-tagged particle displacement, for general single particle dynamics. As by-products, we compute the large deviation function, various cumulants and, for the case of Hamiltonian dynamics, the two-particle velocity auto-correlation function.
