M ay 1 99 9 Quantum stochastic processes in mesoscopic conductors

چکیده

We show an equivalence between the approach of Buttiker and the Fermi quantum stochastic calculus for mesoscopic systems. To illustrate the method we derive the current fluctuations in a two terminal mesoscopic circuit with two tunnel barriers containing a single quasi bound state on the well. The method enables us to focus on either the incoming/outgoing Fermi fields in the leads, or on the irreversible dynamics of the well state itself. The quantum stochastic calculus we use is the Fermi analogue of the input/output methods of quantum optics.

A pr 1 99 6 Gauge invariant nonlinear electric transport in mesoscopic conductors

We use the scattering approach to investigate the nonlinear current-voltage characteristic of mesoscopic conductors. We discuss the leading nonlinearity by taking into account the self-consistent nonequilibrium potential. We emphasize conservation of the overall charge and current which are connected to the invariance under a global voltage shift (gauge invariance). As examples, we discuss the ...

Non-equilibrium quantum field theory studies time dependence of processes which are not available for the S-matrix description. One of the new methods of investigation in non-equilibrium quantum theory is the stochastic limit method. This method is an extension of the works by Bogoliubov, van Hove and Prigogine and it permits to study not only the system but also the reservoir degrees of freedo...

Models of intermittent behaviour are usually formulated using a set of multiplicative random weights on a Cayley tree. However, inter-mittency in particle multiproduction from QCD jets is related to fragmentation of an additive quantum number, e.g. energy-momentum. We exhibit the non-trivial stochastic mapping between these additive and multiplicative cascading processes.

The main purpose of the paper is an essentially probabilistic analysis of relativistic quantum mechanics. It is based on the assumption that whenever probability distributions arise, there exists a stochastic process that is either responsible for temporal evolution of a given measure or preserves the measure in the stationary case. Our departure point is the so-called Schrödinger problem of pr...
