Thermal corrections to the Casimir energy in a Lorentz-breaking scalar field theory [PDF]

open access: yesModern Physics Letters A, 2018
In this paper, we investigate the thermal effect on the Casimir energy associated with a massive scalar quantum field confined between two large parallel plates in a CPT-even, aether-like Lorentz-breaking scalar field theory.

Holographic thermal correlators: a tale of Fuchsian ODEs and integration contours

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We analyze real-time thermal correlation functions of conserved currents in holographic field theories using the grSK geometry, which provides a contour prescription for their evaluation.

Spectral form factor of a quantum spin glass

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
It is widely expected that systems which fully thermalize are chaotic in the sense of exhibiting random-matrix statistics of their energy level spacings, whereas integrable systems exhibit Poissonian statistics.

THERMAL FIELD THEORY IN NON-EQUILIBRIUM STATES [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics B, 1996
Conventional transport theory is not really applicable to nonequilibrium systems which exhibit strong quantum effects. We present two different approaches to overcome this problem. Firstly we point out how transport equations may be derived that incorporate a nontrivial spectral function as a typical quantum effect, and test this approach in a toy ...

Real-time spin systems from lattice field theory

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We construct a lattice field theory method for computing the real-time dynamics of spin systems in a thermal bath. This is done by building on previous work of Takano with Schwinger-Keldysh and functional differentiation techniques. We derive a Schwinger-

Thermalization and chaos in a 1+1d QFT

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We study aspects of chaos and thermodynamics at strong coupling in a scalar model using LCT numerical methods. We find that our eigenstate spectrum satisfies Wigner-Dyson statistics and that the coefficients describing eigenstates in our basis satisfy ...

Information loss in effective field theory: entanglement and thermal entropies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Integrating out high energy degrees of freedom to yield a low energy effective field theory leads to a loss of information with a concomitant increase in entropy.

Universality of quantum information in chaotic CFTs

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
We study the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis (ETH) in chaotic conformal field theories (CFTs) of arbitrary dimensions. Assuming local ETH, we compute the reduced density matrix of a ball-shaped subsystem of finite size in the infinite volume limit ...

Global symmetries and partial confinement

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
In gauge theories, spontaneous breaking of the centre symmetry provides a precise definition of deconfinement. In large-N gauge theories, evidence has emerged recently that between confined and deconfined phases a partially-deconfined phase can appear ...
