Local Dynamics in an Infinite Harmonic Chain

چکیده

By the method of recurrence relations, the time evolution in a local variable in a harmonic chain is obtained. In particular, the autocorrelation function is obtained analytically. Using this result, a number of important dynamical quantities are obtained, including the memory function of the generalized Langevin equation. Also studied are the ergodicity and chaos in a local dynamical variable.

Stochastic dynamics with a mesoscopic bath.

We consider the effects of bath size on the nature of the dynamics and transport properties for two simple models in which the bath is composed of a collinear chain of harmonic oscillators. The first model consists of an untwisted rotating chain (elastic rotor) for which we obtain a non-Markovian equation analogous to the generalized Langevin equation for the rotational degrees of freedom. We d...

بررسی دینامیک کوانتومی مدارهای الکتریکی مزوسکوپی با بار گسسته

  The quantum dynamics of a charged particle in an infinite chain of single-state quantum wells, in tight-binding approximation and under the action of an arbitrary time-dependent external field is investigated. The connection between the Hamiltonian description of this model and the Hamiltonian of a discrete-charge mesoscopic quantum circuit is elucidated. Based on this connection, the persist...

The Lieb-Robinson theorem states that locality is approximately preserved in the dynamics of quantum lattice systems. Whenever one has finite-dimensional constituents, observables evolving in time under a local Hamiltonian will essentially grow linearly in their support, up to exponentially suppressed corrections. In this work, we formulate Lieb-Robinson bounds for general harmonic systems on g...

Energy Diffusion in Harmonic System with Conservative Noise

Lattice networks of oscillators have been considered for a long time as good models for studying macroscopic energy trasport and its diffusion, i.e. for obtaining, on a macroscopic space-time scale, heat equation and Fourier law of conduction ([1]). It is well understood that the diffusive behavior of the energy is due to the non-linearity of the interactions, and that purely deterministic harm...
