چکیده

A method is presented for proving upper bounds on the moments of the position operator when the dynamics of quantum wavepackets is governed by a random (possibly correlated) Jacobi matrix. As an application, one obtains sharp upper bounds on the diffusion exponents for random polymer models, coinciding with the lower bounds obtained in a prior work. The second application is an elementary argument (not using multiscale analysis or the Aizenman-Molchanov method) showing that under the condition of uniformly positive Lyapunov exponents, the moments of the position operator grow at most logarithmically in time.

Upper and lower bounds for numerical radii of block shifts

For an n-by-n complex matrix A in a block form with the (possibly) nonzero blocks only on the diagonal above the main one, we consider two other matrices whose nonzero entries are along the diagonal above the main one and consist of the norms or minimum moduli of the diagonal blocks of A. In this paper, we obtain two inequalities relating the numeical radii of these matrices and also determine ...

Upper Bounds for Quantum Dynamics Governed by Jacobi Matrices with Self-similar Spectra

We study a class of one-sided Hamiltonian operators with spectral measures given by invariant and ergodic measures of dynamical systems of the interval. We analyse dimensional properties of spectral measures, and prove upper bounds for the asymptotic spread in time of wavepackets. These bounds involve the Hausdorr dimension of the spectral measure, multiplied by a correction calculated from the...
