چکیده

We study the cluster properties of thermal equilibrium states in theories with a maximal propagation velocity (such as relativistic QFT). Our analysis, carried out in the setting of algebraic quantum field theory, shows that there is a tight relation between spectral properties of the generator of time translations and the decay of spatial correlations in thermal equilibrium states, in complete analogy to the well understood case of the vacuum state. Mathematics Subject Classifications (1991). 81T05. Décroissance des corrélations spatiales pour les états thermaux. Résumé. Nous étudions la propriété de cluster des états thermaux d’équilibre dans des théories possédant une vitesse maximale de propagation (comme les théories des champs relativistes). Notre analyse, menée dans le cadre de la théorie algébrique des champs, montre qu’il existe une relation étroite entre les propriétés spectrales du générateur des translations temporelles et la décroissance des corrélations spatiales pour les états thermaux déquilibre, en compléte analogie avec le cas bien connu de l’état de vide.

Rural Growth and Decay: Analysis of Physical-Spatial Transformation of Rural Area in Iran (Case Staudy: Kahak Area of Qom Province)

Human settlements experience continual change. In recent years, many rural areas have experienced dispersed grow (rural sprawl) and population declines in traditional village centers (Hollowing). These paradoxical phenomena have occurred in most developing countries, including rural Iran. This study examines this phenomena in three Iranian villages of Kahak area of Qom province, and develops a ...

Control of Quantum and Classical Correlations in Werner-Like States of Two-Qubit Cavity System under Dissipative Environments

Quantum and classical correlations are studied for Werner-Like States of two-qubit cavity system interacting with a thermal reservoir. Starting from Werner-like states, we have shown that entanglement sudden death and decay of both the quantum discord and classical correlation are accelerated by the different factors: thermal photons, cavity decay and the purity of the initial state. By these f...

Cluster Estimates for Modular Structures

The cluster theorem of relativistic quantum field theory expresses the decay of correlations between clusters of local observables as the space-like separation between clusters increases. In 3 + 1 dimensions the correlations of the vacuum expectation values of local observables decrease at least like δ if δ is their space-like separation [AHR]. In the presence of a massgap one even finds an exp...

We investigate the relationship between the gap between the energy of the ground state and the first excited state and the decay of correlation functions in harmonic lattice systems. We prove that in gapped systems, the exponential decay of correlations follows for both the ground state and thermal states. Considering the converse direction, we show that an energy gap can follow from algebraic ...
