Interplay of Quantum Mechanics and Nonlinearity

This book presents an in-depth study of the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation (DNLSE), with particular emphasis on spatially small systems that permit analytic solutions. In many quantum systems of contemporary interest, the DNLSE arises as a result of approximate descriptions despite the fundamental linearity of quantum mechanics. Such scenarios, exemplified by polaron physics and Bose-Einstein condensation, provide application areas for the theoretical tools developed in this text. The book begins with an introduction of the DNLSE illustrated with the dimer, development of fundamental analytic tools such as elliptic functions, and the resulting insights into experiment that they all...

Memory Functions, Projection Operators, and the Defect Technique

This book provides a graduate-level introduction to three powerful and closely related techniques in condensed matter physics: memory functions, projection operators, and the defect technique. Memory functions appear in the formalism of the generalized master equations that express the time evolution of probabilities via equations non-local in time, projection operators allow the extraction of parts of quantities, such as the diagonal parts of density matrices in statistical mechanics, and the defect technique allows solution of transport equations in which the translational invariance is broken in small regions, such as when crystals are doped with impurities. These three methods combined f...

Progress in Mathematical Biology Research

Applying mathematics to biology has a long history, but only recently has there been an explosion of interest in the field. Some reasons for this include: the explosion of data-rich information sets, due to the genomics revolution, which are difficult to understand without the use of analytical tools, recent development of mathematical tools such as chaos theory to help understand complex, non-linear mechanisms in biology, an increase in computing power which enables calculations and simulations to be performed that were not previously possible, and an increasing interest in in-silico experimentation due to the complications involved in human and animal research. This new book presents the latest leading-edge research in the field.

Tinnitus

TINNITUS is a collection of poems written in various styles on diverse topics. Some of them address events in the poet's life, some speak of deep bonds, some celebrate love including for his wife, his family and his dog, some are humorous, and some border on the spiritual. Visual sketches interspersed throughout the book and on the cover are of the author's own creation. The multifaceted personality of the author and his joi de vivre emerge transparently in this unusual, unpretentious and enjoyable offering.

Modern Challenges in Statistical Mechanics

This proceedings volume of the PASI (Pan American Advanced Studies Institute) covers topics in pattern formation, noise induced phenomena, the interplay of nonlinearity and complexity, and the methodology of statistical mechanics. The first set of articles concern general methodology and the second covers various topics of biophysical interest. The final group of articles focuses on a number of timely applications including chemical systems and granular materials.

Coherent States

This volume is a review on coherent states and some of their applications. The usefulness of the concept of coherent states is illustrated by considering specific examples from the fields of physics and mathematical physics. Particular emphasis is given to a general historical introduction, general continuous representations, generalized coherent states, classical and quantum correspondence, path integrals and canonical formalism. Applications are considered in quantum mechanics, optics, quantum chemistry, atomic physics, statistical physics, nuclear physics, particle physics and cosmology. A selection of original papers is reprinted.
