QP-PQ: Quantum Probability and White Noise Analysis - Vol. 17

FUNDAMENTAL ASPECTS OF QUANTUM PHYSICS
Proceedings of the Japan-Italy Joint Workshop on Quantum Open Systems, Quantum Chaos and Quantum Measurement
Waseda University, Tokyo, Japan 27 - 29 September 2001

edited by Luigi Accardi (University of Roma II, Italy) & Shuichi Tasaki (Waseda University, Japan)

This volume includes new topics such as the stochastic limit approach to nonequilibrium states, a new algebraic approach to relativistic nonequilibrium local states, classical and quantum features of weak chaos, transports in quantum billiards, the Welcher–Weg puzzle with a decaying atom, and the topics related to the quantum Zeno effect.

The proceedings have been selected for coverage in:

  • Index to Scientific & Technical Proceedings (ISTP CDROM version / ISI Proceedings)


Contents:

  • Quantum Open Systems:
  • Onsager Relation with the "Slow" Degrees of the Field in the White Noise Equation Based on Stochastic Limit (L Accardi et al.)
  • Non-Equilibrium Local States in Relativistic Quantum Field Theory (I Ojima)
  • Fluctuation Theorem, Nonequilibrium Steady States and MacLennan–Zubarev Ensembles of a Class of Large Quantum Systems (S Tasaki & T Matsui)
  • Quantum Chaos:
  • Weak Chaos: Classical and Quantum Features (R Artuso)
  • Quantum Transport in Quantum Billiards: From Kelvin through Arnold (K Nakamura)
  • On Quantum-Classical Correspondence and Chaos Degree for Baker's Map (K Inoue et al.)
  • Quantum Measurements and Related Topics:
  • Welcher–Weg Puzzle with a Decaying Atom (S Takagi)
  • Unstable Systems and Quantum Zeno Phenomena in Quantum Field Theory (P Facchi & S Pascazio)
  • Quantum Decomposition and Quantum Central Limit Theorem (A Hora & N Obata)
  • and other papers


Readership: Researchers in probability & statistics, quantum physics, stochastic theory, mathematical physics and nonlinear science.
