A Quantum Approach to Classical Statistical Mechanics
We present a new approach to study the thermodynamic properties of d-dimensional classical systems by reducing the problem to the computation of ground state properties of a d-dimensional quantum model. This classical-to-quantum mapping allows us to deal with standard optimization methods, such as simulated and quantum annealing, on an equal basis. Consequently, we extend the quantum annealing ...
متن کاملA statistical mechanics approach to Granovetter theory
In this paper we try to bridge breakthroughs in quantitative sociology/econometrics pioneered during the last decades by Mac Fadden, Brock-Durlauf, Granovetter and Watts-Strogats through introducing a minimal model able to reproduce essentially all the features of social behavior highlighted by these authors. Our model relies on a pairwise Hamiltonian for decision maker interactions which natur...
متن کاملAn Approach to Quantum Statistical Mechanics
We start the discussion of the free Bose gas on Robertson-Walker space-times by introducing a new state on the Weyl algebra of the free massive Klein-Gordon eld on Robertson-Walker space-times. This state approximates a thermal equilibrium state and opens the possibility to do quantum statistical mechanics on expanding universes. We explain why this state is believed to be a physically relevant...
متن کاملQuantum Mechanics as a Principle Theory
In an article written for the London Times in 1919, Einstein presented a remarkably clear and succinct, non-technical account of the theory of relativity. He began by drawing a distinction between &constructive' and &principle' theories, and pointed out that the theory of relativity should be understood as a principle theory &in order to properly grasp its nature'. (I use the translation in Ein...
متن کاملQuantum Mechanics as a Space-time Theory
We show how quantum mechanics can be understood as a space-time theory provided that its spatial continuum is modelled by a variable real number (qrumber) continuum. Such a continuum can be constructed using only standard Hilbert space entities. The geometry of atoms and subatomic objects differs from that of classical objects. The systems that are non-local when measured in the classical space...
