Quantum-classical solvation hydrodynamics: a Hamiltonian modeling framework
François Gay-Balmaz, Cesare Tronci
We propose a mixed quantum-classical hydrodynamic framework to model short-time inertial effects in the non-adiabatic evolution of a quantum solute coupled to a classical polar sol…
Quantum-classical dynamics of Rashba spin-orbit coupling
Paul Bergold, Giovanni Manfredi, Cesare Tronci
Mixed quantum-classical models are widely used to reduce the computational cost of fully quantum simulations. However, their general applicability across different classes of probl…
Madelung hydrodynamics of spin-orbit coupling: action principles, currents, and correlations
Cesare Tronci
We exploit the variational and Hamiltonian structures of quantum hydrodynamics with spin to unfold the correlation and torque mechanisms accompanying spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in e…
Entropy functionals and equilibrium states in mixed quantum-classical dynamics
Cesare Tronci, David MartÃnez-Crespo, François Gay-Balmaz
The computational challenges posed by many-particle quantum systems are often overcome by mixed quantum-classical (MQC) models in which certain degrees of freedom are treated as cl…
Heisenberg dynamics of mixed quantum-classical systems
David MartÃnez-Crespo, Cesare Tronci
We consider the dynamics of interacting quantum and classical systems in the Heisenberg representation. Unlike the usual construction in standard quantum mechanics, mixed quantum-c…
