Rényi free energy and variational approximations to thermal states
Giacomo Giudice, Aslı Çakan, J. Ignacio Cirac +1
We propose the construction of thermodynamic ensembles that minimize the Rényi free energy, as an alternative to Gibbs states. For large systems, the local properties of these Rény…

Approximating the long time average of the density operator: Diagonal ensemble
Aslı Çakan, J. Ignacio Cirac, Mari Carmen Bañuls
For an isolated generic quantum system out of equilibrium, the long time average of observables is given by the diagonal ensemble, i.e. the mixed state with the same probability fo…

Strained band edge characteristics from hybrid density functional theory and empirical pseudopotentials: GaAs, GaSb, InAs and InSb
Aslı Çakan, Cem Sevik, Ceyhun Bulutay
The properties of a semiconductor get drastically modified when the crystal point group symmetry is broken under an arbitrary strain. We investigate the family of semiconductors co…
