Statistical Mechanics of the Cosmological Many-body Problem and its Relation to Galaxy Clustering
The cosmological many-body problem is effectively an infinite system of gravitationally interacting masses in an expanding universe. Despite the interactions’ long-range nature, an analytical theory of statistical mechanics describes the spatial and velocity distribution functions which arise in the quasi-equilibrium conditions that apply to many cosmologies. Consequences of this theory agree w...
متن کاملCosmology as a problem in critical phenomena
A measure of complexity which is suggested by these applications, but which may also have application to other problems, is described. † [email protected] * permanent address
متن کاملConvexity and the quantum many-body problem
We recall some properties of convex functions and, in particular, of the sum of the largest eigenvalues of a Hermitian matrix. From these properties a new estimate of an arbitrary eigenvalue of a sum of Hermitian matrices is derived, which in turn is used to compute an approximate associated spectral projector. These estimates are applied for the first time to explain generic spectral features ...
متن کاملQuantum Many-Body Phenomena in Coupled Cavity Arrays
The increasing level of experimental control over atomic and optical systems gained in the past years have paved the way for the exploration of new physical regimes in quantum optics and atomic physics, characterised by the appearance of quantum many-body phenomena, originally encountered only in condensed-matter physics, and the possibility of experimentally accessing them in a more controlled...
متن کاملStochastic Resonance Phenomena in Quantum Many-Body Systems
We discuss stochastic resonance (SR) effects in driven coupled quantum systems. We construct dynamical and information theoretic measures of the system’s response that exhibit a non-monotonic behaviour as a function of the noise strength. We analyze the relation between lack of monotonicity in the response and the presence of quantum correlations and identify parameter regimes where the breakdo...
