Quantum Approach to a Derivation of the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Jochen Gemmer, Alexander Otte, Guenter Mahler

We re-interprete the microcanonical conditions in the quantum domain as constraints for the interaction of the "gas-subsystem" under consideration and its environment ("container")…

Adapted-operator representations: Selective versus collective properties of quantum networks

Alexander Otte, Guenter Mahler

Based on local unitary operators acting on a n-dimensional Hilbert-space, we investigate selective and collective operator basis sets for N-particle quantum networks. Selective clu…
