Many body localization and thermalization in quantum statistical mechanics [PDF]
We review some recent developments in the statistical mechanics of isolated quantum systems. We provide a brief introduction to quantum thermalization, paying particular attention to the `Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis' (ETH), and the resulting ...

Reworking Zubarev’s Approach to Nonequilibrium Quantum Statistical Mechanics
In this work, the nonequilibrium density operator approach introduced by Zubarev more than 50 years ago to describe quantum systems at a local thermodynamic equilibrium is revisited.

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 ...

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.

Emergence of Quantum Mechanics from a Sub-Quantum Statistical Mechanics [PDF]
A research program within the scope of theories on "Emergent Quantum Mechanics" is presented, which has gained some momentum in recent years. Via the modeling of a quantum system as a non-equilibrium steady-state maintained by a permanent throughput of energy from the zero-point vacuum, the quantum is considered as an emergent system.

The Quantum Relative Entropy of the Schwarzschild Black Hole and the Area Law [PDF]
The area law obeyed by the thermodynamic entropy of black holes is one of the fundamental results relating gravity to statistical mechanics. In this work, we provide a derivation of the area law for the quantum relative entropy of the Schwarzschild black

Local normality in Quantum Statistical Mechanics [PDF]
It is shown that K.M.S.-states are locally normal on a great number ofC*-algebras that may be of interest in Quantum Statistical Mechanics. The lattice structure and the Choquet-simplex structure of various sets of states are investigated. In this respect special attention is payed to the interplay of the K.M.S.-automorphism group with other ...

Introduction to Quantum Statistical Mechanics [PDF]
This set of lectures is intended to provide a flavor of the physical ideas underlying some of the concepts of Quantum Statistical Mechanics that will be studied in this school devoted to Open Qantum Systems. Although it is quite possible to start with the mathematical definitions of notions such as ”bosons”, ”states”, ”Gibbs prescription” or ”entropy ...
