GENERALIZATION OF CLASSICAL STATISTICAL MECHANICS TO QUANTUM MECHANICS AND STABLE PROPERTY OF CONDENSED MATTER [PDF]
Modern Physics Letters B, 2004 Classical statistical average values are generally generalized to average values of quantum mechanics. It is discovered that quantum mechanics is a direct generalization of classical statistical mechanics, and we generally deduce both a new general continuous eigenvalue equation and a general discrete eigenvalue equation in quantum mechanics, and ...

Non-recursive chadi-cohen integration over the brillouin zone of cubic crystals [PDF]
Philosophical Magazine B, 2001 Abstract We give closed-form non-recursive formulae for the Chadi-Cohen sets of special points associated with the bcc and fcc symmetries. The expressions are valid for arbitrary order n, which enters them as a parameter. This ameliorates the situation of the Chadi-Cohen method of integration over Brillouin zones, whose application to high-precision ...

The Mechanics and Statistics of Active Matter [PDF]
, 2010 Active particles contain internal degrees of freedom with the ability to take in and dissipate energy and, in the process, execute systematic movement. Examples include all living organisms and their motile constituents such as molecular motors.

Range separation: The divide between local structures and field theories [PDF]
, 2019 This work presents parallel histories of the development of two modern theories of condensed matter: the theory of electron structure in quantum mechanics, and the theory of liquid structure in statistical mechanics. Comparison shows that key revelations

Philosophical Magazine B, 2001 Abstract The behaviour of two-dimensional grain structures anchored by circular or elongated pins (needles) is examined in two ways: experimentally, using soap films trapped between two glass plates, and computationally, using a Potts model. In the simulations, the Zener pins are exactly equivalent in size, position and orientation to the pins in the ...

Thermodynamic Limit in Statistical Physics [PDF]
, 2014 The thermodynamic limit in statistical thermodynamics of many-particle systems is an important but often overlooked issue in the various applied studies of condensed matter physics. To settle this issue, we review tersely the past and present disposition

"Deconfined" quantum critical points [PDF]
, 2003 The theory of second order phase transitions is one of the foundations of modern statistical mechanics and condensed matter theory. A central concept is the observable `order parameter', whose non-zero average value characterizes one or more phases and ...

On Renormalization Group Flows and Polymer Algebras [PDF]
, 1994 In this talk methods for a rigorous control of the renormalization group (RG) flow of field theories are discussed. The RG equations involve the flow of an infinite number of local partition functions.

Erratum to: 25 Years of Self-organized Criticality: Concepts and Controversies [PDF]
, 2014 Introduced by the late Per Bak and his colleagues, self-organized criticality (SOC) has been one of the most stimulating concepts to come out of statistical mechanics and condensed matter theory in the last few decades, and has played a significant role ...
