Rigorous results on approach to thermal equilibrium, entanglement, and nonclassicality of an optical quantum field mode scattering from the elements of a non-equilibrium quantum reservoir
Stephan De Bievre, Marco Merkli, Paul E. Parris
Rigorous derivations of the approach of individual elements of large isolated systems to a state of thermal equilibrium, starting from arbitrary initial states, are exceedingly rar…
A rigourous demonstration of the validity of Boltzmann's scenario for the spatial homogenization of a freely expanding gas and the equilibration of the Kac ring
Stephan De Bievre, Paul E. Parris
Boltzmann provided a scenario to explain why individual macroscopic systems composed of a large number of microscopic constituents are inevitably (i.e., with overwhelming proba…
Dynamical mechanisms leading to equilibration in two-component gases
Stephan De Bièvre, Carlos Mejía-Monasterio, Paul E. Parris
Demonstrating how microscopic dynamics cause large systems to approach thermal equilibrium remains an elusive, longstanding, and actively-pursued goal of statistical mechanics. We…
Equilibration, generalized equipartition, and diffusion in dynamical Lorentz gases
S. De Bievre, P. E. Parris
We prove approach to thermal equilibrium for the fully Hamiltonian dynamics of a dynamical Lorentz gas, by which we mean an ensemble of particles moving through a -dimensional a…
Classical motion in force fields with short range correlations
B. Aguer, S. De Bievre, P. Lafitte +1
We study the long time motion of fast particles moving through time-dependent random force fields with correlations that decay rapidly in space, but not necessarily in time. The ti…
Extensions of Effective Medium Theory of Transport in Disordered Systems
V. M. Kenkre, Z. Kalay, P. E. Parris
Effective medium theory of transport in disordered systems, whose basis is the replacement of spatial disorder by temporal memory, is extended in several practical directions. Rest…
