چکیده

We investigate the ergodic properties of a general class of infinite systems of independent particles which undergo nontrivial "collisions" with an external field, e.g. fixed convex barriers (the Lorentz gas). We relate the ergodic properties of these systems to the ergodic properties for a single particle moving in a finite box (with periodic boundary conditions) with the same dynamics. We prove that when the one particle system is mixing or a K-system for a sequence of boxes approaching infinity so is the infinite particle system with an equilibrium measure obtained as a Poisson construction over the one particle phase space.

Quantized Kronecker flows and almost periodic quantum field theory

We define and study the properties of the infinite dimensional quantized Kronecker flow. This C-dynamical system arises as a quantization of the corresponding flow on an infinite dimensional torus. We prove an ergodic theorem for a class of quantized Kronecker flows. We also study the closely related almost periodic quantum field theory of bosonic, fermionic and supersymmetric particles. We pro...

Diffusion limit for many particles in a periodic stochastic acceleration field

The one-dimensional motion of any number N of particles in the field of many independent waves (with strong spatial correlation) is formulated as a second-order system of stochastic differential equations, driven by two Wiener processes. In the limit of vanishing particle mass m → 0, or equivalently of large noise intensity, we show that the momenta of all N particles converge weakly to N indep...

Dynamic Stability Analysis of a Beam Excited by a Sequence of Moving Mass Particles

In this paper, the dynamic stability analysis of a simply supported beam carrying a sequence of moving masses is investigated. Many applications such as motion of vehicles or trains on bridges, cranes transporting loads along their span, fluid transfer pipe systems and the barrel of different weapons can be represented as a flexible beam carrying moving masses. The periodical traverse of masses...

Structural Analysis of Unsymmetric Laminated Composite Timoshenko Beam Subjected to Moving Load

The structural analysis of an infinite unsymmetric laminated composite Timoshenko beam over Pasternak viscoelastic foundation under moving load is studied. The beam is subjected to a travelling concentrated load. Closed form steady state solutions, based on the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) are developed. In this analysis, the effect of bend-twist coupling is also evaluated. Selec...

Berry phase for a particle in an infinite spherical potential well with moving wall

In this paper we calculate the Berry phase for a wave function of a particle in an infinite spherical potential well with adiabatically varying. In order to do this, we need the solutions of the corresponding Schrödinger equation with a time dependent Hamiltonian. Here, we obtain these solutions for the first time. In addition, we calculate the Berry phase in one dimensional case for an infinit...
