Statistical mechanics of confined quantum particles [PDF]
We develop statistical mechanics and thermodynamics of Bose and Fermi systems in relativistic harmonic oscillator (RHO) confining potential, which may be applicable in quark gluon plasma (QGP), astrophysics, Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC), condensed ...

Spin Glass: A Bridge between quantum computation and statistical mechanics [PDF]
We show two fascinating topics lying between quantum information processing and statistical mechanics. First, we introduce an elaborated technique, the surface code, to prepare the particular quantum state with robustness against decoherence. Second, we show another interesting technique to employ quantum nature, quantum annealing.

The Group-Algebraic Formalism of Quantum Probability and Its Applications in Quantum Statistical Mechanics [PDF]
We show that the theory of quantum statistical mechanics is a special model in the framework of the quantum probability theory developed by mathematicians, by extending the characteristic function in the classical probability theory to the quantum ...

Quantum mechanics as an approximation of statistical mechanics for classical fields
We show that, in spite of a rather common opinion, quantum mechanics can be represented as an approximation of classical statistical mechanics. The approximation under consideration is based on the ordinary Taylor expansion of physical variables.

Disorder-induced quantum-to-classical transition, or how the world becomes classical [PDF]
Decoherence theory explains how quantum mechanics gives rise to classical mechanics through the entanglement of a quantum system’s evolution with the degrees of freedom of the environment.

Some speculations about local thermalization of nonequilibrium extended quantum systems
We discuss the possibility of defining an emergent local temperature in extended quantum many-body systems evolving out of equilibrium. For the most simple case of free-fermionic systems, we give an explicit formula for the effective temperature in the ...

Exceptional dynamical quantum phase transitions in periodically driven systems
Understanding phase transitions in systems out of equilibrium is a topic of high interest. Here the author discusses the spontaneous antiunitary symmetry breaking leading to exceptional dynamical quantum phase transitions in driven many-body systems.
