Exact lower bound of the uncertainty principle product for the harmonic oscillator with position-momentum coupling

Yamen Hamdouni

We show that the uncertainty principle product for the position and momentum operators for a system described by the Hamiltonian $ \hat H= \frac{\hat{p}^2}{2m} +\frac{1}{2} m ω^2 \…

Diffusion coefficients preserving long-time correlations: Consequences on the Einstein relation and on entanglement in a bosonic Bogoliubov system

Yamen Hamdouni

We analytically derive the diffusion coefficients that drive a system of coupled harmonic oscillators to an equilibrium state exhibiting persistent correlations. It is shown th…

Quantum mean-field treatment of the dynamics of a two-level atom in a simple cubic lattice

Yamen Hamdouni

The mean field approximation is used to investigate the general features of the dynamics of a two-level atom in a ferromagnetic lattice close to the Curie temperature. Various anal…

Aspects of the decoherence in high spin environments: Breakdown of the mean-field approximation

Yamen Hamdouni

The study of the decoherence of qubits in spin systems is almost restricted to environments whose constituents are spin- particles. In this paper we consider environme…

Notes on the phase space formulation of the propagator of Hamiltonians with spatially-dependent kinetic energy

Yamen Hamdouni

These short notes present to the reader (students, in particular) a concise approach to the derivation of the propagator of Hamiltonians with position-dependent kinetic energy. The…

Random spin distributions and the diffusion equation

Yamen Hamdouni

We show that the probability distribution corresponding to a fully random tracial state of a system of spin-S particles satisfies a diffusion-like equation. The diffusion coefficie…
