From Bogoliubov-de Gennes to Ginzburg-Landau: Critical Points Near $T_{\rm c}$ in the Non-Magnetic Case

We study the relation between the Bogoliubov-de Gennes (BdG) equation and the Ginzburg-Landau (GL) equation for a BCS model without external fields. While previous rigorous derivations of GL theory from BCS theory have focused on energies and minimizers, here we consider arbitrary critical points in the relevant energy regime. For temperatures close to the critical temperature, we prove that every sufficiently small solution of the BdG equation admits an asymptotic factorization into a microscopic Cooper-pair profile and a macroscopic order parameter. The latter satisfies the GL equation up to an error that vanishes in the scaling limit. We also prove the opposite direction, going from a solution of the GL equation to an approximate solution of the BdG equation. Our analysis relies on a Birman-Schwinger reformulation of the BdG equation, a Lyapunov-Schmidt type reduction, and semiclassical estimates at low regularity.

Pseudo-relativistic fermionic systems with attractive Yukawa potential

We study the Hartree-Fock and Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theories for a large fermionic system with the pseudo-relativistic kinetic energy and an attractive Yukawa interaction potential. We prove that the system is stable if and only if the total mass does not excess a critical value, and investigate the existence and properties of ground states in both sub-critical and critical mass regimes.

Collective behaviors of an electron gas in the mean-field regime

In this paper, we study the momentum distribution of an electron gas in a $3$-dimensional torus. The goal is to compute the occupation number of Fourier modes for some trial state obtained through random phase approximation. We obtain the mean-field analogue of momentum distribution formulas for electron gas in [Daniel and Voskov, Phys. Rev. \textbf{120}, (1960)] in high density limit and [Lam, Phys. Rev. \textbf{3}, (1971)] at metallic density. The analysis in the present paper is majorly based on the work [Christiansen, Hainzl, Nam, Comm. Math. Phys. \textbf{401}, (2023)]. Our findings are related to recent results obtained independently by Benedikter, Lill and Naidu, and the analysis applies to a general class of singular potentials rather than just the Coulomb case.

Mass-Critical Neutron Stars in the Hartree-Fock and Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov Theories

We investigate the ground states of neutron stars and white dwarfs in the Hartree-Fock (HF) and Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) theories. It is known that the system is stable below a critical mass, which depends on the gravitational constant, while it becomes unstable if the total mass exceeds the critical mass. We prove that if the total mass is at the critical mass, then the HFB minimizers do not exist for any gravitational constant, while the HF minimizers exist for every gravitational constant except for a countable set, which is fully characterized by the Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequality for orthonormal systems. Our results complement the existence results in the sub-critical mass case established in [E. Lenzmann and M. Lewin, Duke Math. J., 2010].

Light cones for open quantum systems

We consider Markovian open quantum dynamics (MOQD). We show that, up to small-probability tails, the supports of quantum states evolving under such dynamics propagate with finite speed in any finite-energy subspace. More precisely, we prove that if the initial quantum state is localized in space, then any finite-energy part of the solution of the von Neumann-Lindblad equation is approximately localized inside an energy-dependent light cone. We also obtain an explicit upper bound for the slope of this light cone.
