Weakly nonlinear degrees of freedom in dissipative quantum systems tend to localize near manifolds of quasi-classical states. We present a family of analytical and computational methods for deriving optimal unitary model transformations based on representations of finite dimensional Lie groups. The transformations are optimal in that they minimize the quantum relative entropy distance between a...

Previous results on quasi-classical limit of the KP and Toda hierarchies are now extended to the BKP hierarchy. Basic tools such as the Lax representation, the Baker-Akhiezer function and the tau function are reformulated so as to fit into the analysis of quasi-classical limit. Two subalgebras WB 1+∞ and w B 1+∞ of the Winfinity algebrasW1+∞ and w1+∞ are introduced as fundamental Lie algebras o...

Two important classes of the quantum statistical model, the locally quasi-classical model and the quasi-classical model, are introduced from the estimation theoretical viewpoint, and they are characterized geometrically by the vanishing conditions of the relative phase factor (RPF), implying the close tie between Uhlmann parallel transport and the quantum estimation theory.

We show that the binary homogeneous nucleation (BHN) of H2SO4-H2O can be treated as quasi-unary nucleation of H2SO4 in equilibrium with H2O vapor. A scheme to calculate the evaporation coefficient of H2SO4 molecules from H2SO4-H2O clusters is presented and a kinetic model to simulate the quasi-unary nucleation of H2SO4-H2O is developed. In the kinetic model, the growth and evaporation of sulfur...

In this talk we briefly review the concept of supersymmetric quantum mechanics using a model introduced by Witten. A quasi-classical path-integral evaluation for this model is performed, leading to a so-called supersymmetric quasi-classical quantization condition. Properties of this quantization condition are compared with those derived from the standard WKB approach.

We introduce a new concept of quasi-Yang-Baxter algebras. The quantum quasiYang-Baxrer algebras being simple but non-trivial deformations of ordinary algebras of monodromy matrices realize a new type of quantum dynamical symmetries and nd an unexpected and remarkable applications in quantum inverse scattering method (QISM). We show that applying to quasi-Yang-Baxter algebras the standard proced...
