Limitations on the Utility of Exact Master Equations

چکیده
The low temperature solution of the exact master equation for an oscillator coupled to a linear passive heat bath is known to give rise to serious divergences. We now show that, even in the high temperature regime, problems also exist, notably the fact that the density matrix is not necessarily positive.

A Simple Membrane Computing Method for Simulating Bio-Chemical Reactions
There are two formalisms for simulating spatially homogeneous chemical system; the deterministic approach, usually based on differential equations (reaction rate equations) and the stochastic approach which is based on a single differentialdifference equation (the master equation). The stochastic approach has a firmer physical basis than the deterministic approach, but the master equation is of...
متن کاملOn the Exact Solution for Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations
In this study, we aim to construct a traveling wave solution for nonlinear partial differential equations. In this regards, a cosine-function method is used to find and generate the exact solutions for three different types of nonlinear partial differential equations such as general regularized long wave equation (GRLW), general Korteweg-de Vries equation (GKDV) and general equal width wave equ...
متن کاملExact stochastic simulation of coupled chemical reactions
There are two formalisms for mathematically describing the time behavior of a spatially homogeneous chemical system: The deterministic approach regards the time evolution as a continuous, wholly predictable process which is governed by a set of coupled, ordinary differential equations (the “reaction-rate equations”); the stochastic approach regards the time evolution as a kind of random-walk pr...

Poisson representation techniques provide a powerful method for mapping master equations for birth/death processes — found in many fields of physics, chemistry and biology — into more tractable stochastic differential equations. However, the usual expansion is not exact in the presence of boundary terms, which commonly occur when the differential equations are nonlinear. In this paper, a gauge ...
