Density of states of a 2D system of soft--sphere fermions by path integral Monte Carlo simulations

The Wigner formulation of quantum mechanics is used to derive a new path integral representation of quantum density of states. A path integral Monte Carlo approach is developed for the numerical investigation of density of states, internal energy and spin--resolved radial distribution functions for a 2D system of strongly correlated soft--sphere fermions. The peculiarities of the density of states and internal energy distributions depending on the hardness of the soft--sphere potential and particle density are investigated and explained. In particular, at high enough densities the density of states rapidly tends to a constant value, as for an ideal system of 2D fermions.

Screening properties of quark-gluon plasma obtained from distribution and correlation functions of the constituent quasiparticle model

Based on the constituent quasiparticle model of quark-gluon plasma (QGP), the matrix elements of the density operator and the Wigner function in the color phase space are presented in form of color path integrals over Wiener and SU(3) group Haar measures. Monte Carlo calculations of quark and gluon momentum distributions and spatial pair distribution functions have been carried out for the strongly coupled QGP plasma in thermal equilibrium at zero baryon chemical potential. The Debye screening mass and the running coupling constant have been obtained from the spatial pair distribution function and are in agreement with the available lattice QCD data. At densities related to the average interparticle distance more than 0.4 fm the gluon bound states in the form of glueballs have been found. Comparison with the Maxwell Boltzmann distribution shows significant influence of interparticle interaction on high energy asymptotics of the momentum distribution functions, resulting in appearance of quantum tails. The new color pair correlation function has been introduced, and related new color screening mass has been discussed.

Classical and quantum Coulomb crystals

Strong correlation effects in classical and quantum plasmas are discussed. In particular, Coulomb (Wigner) crystallization phenomena are reviewed focusing on one-component non-neutral plasmas in traps and on macroscopic two-component neutral plasmas. The conditions for crystal formation in terms of critical values of the coupling parameters and the distance fluctuations and the phase diagram of Coulomb crystals are discussed.

Exciton formation and dissociation in mass-asymmetric electron-hole plasmas

First-principle path integral Monte Carlo simulations were performed in order to analyze correlation effects in complex electron-hole plasmas, particularly with regard to the appearance of excitonic bound states. Results are discussed in relation to exciton formation in unconventional semiconductors with large electron hole mass asymmetry.

Interacting electrons in a one-dimensional random array of scatterers - A Quantum Dynamics and Monte-Carlo study

The quantum dynamics of an ensemble of interacting electrons in an array of random scatterers is treated using a new numerical approach for the calculation of average values of quantum operators and time correlation functions in the Wigner representation. The Fourier transform of the product of matrix elements of the dynamic propagators obeys an integral Wigner-Liouville-type equation. Initial conditions for this equation are given by the Fourier transform of the Wiener path integral representation of the matrix elements of the propagators at the chosen initial times. This approach combines both molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo methods and computes numerical traces and spectra of the relevant dynamical quantities such as momentum-momentum correlation functions and spatial dispersions. Considering as an application a system with fixed scatterers, the results clearly demonstrate that the many-particle interaction between the electrons leads to an enhancement of the conductivity and spatial dispersion compared to the noninteracting case.

Path integral Monte Carlo simulations and analytical approximations for high-temperature plasmas

The results of analytical approximations and extensive calculations based on a path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) scheme are presented. A new (direct) PIMC method allows for a correct determination of thermodynamic properties such as energy and equation of state of dense degenerate Coulomb systems. In this paper, we present results for dense partially ionized hydrogen at intermediate and high temperature. We give a quantitative comparison with the available results of alternative (restricted) PIMC simulations and with analytical expressions based on iterpolation formulas meeting the exact limits at low and high densities. Good agreement between the two simulations is found up to densities of the order of $10^{24}cm^{-3}$. The agreement with the analytical results is satisfactory up to densities in the range $10^{22}... 10^{23}cm^{-3}$.

Quantum dynamics in canonical and micro-canonical ensembles. Part II. Tunneling in double well potential

In the second part of this paper in micro canonical ensemble the new numerical approach for consideration of quantum dynamics and calculations of the average values of quantum operators and time correlation functions in the Wigner representation of quantum statistical mechanics has been developed. The numerical results have been obtained for series of the average values of quantum operators as well as for the time correlation function characterizing the energy level structure, the momentum flow of tunneling particles at barrier crossing and the absorption spectra of electron in potential well. The developed quantum dynamics method was tested by comparison of numerical results with analytical estimations. Tunneling transitions and the effect of the quasi stationary state has been considered as the reason of the peculiarities in behaviour of the time correlation functions and position and momentum dispersions. Possibility of applying the developed approach to the theory of classical wave propagation in random media have been also considered. For classical waves some results have been obtained for Gaussian beam propagation in 2D and 3D waveguides.

Quantum dynamics in canonical and micro-canonical ensembles. Part I. Anderson localization of electrons

The new numerical approach for consideration of quantum dynamics and calculations of the average values of quantum operators and time correlation functions in the Wigner representation of quantum statistical mechanics has been developed. The time correlation functions have been presented in the form of the integral of the Weyl's symbol of considered operators and the Fourier transform of the product of matrix elements of the dynamic propagators. For the last function the integral Wigner- Liouville's type equation has been derived. The numerical procedure for solving this equation combining both molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo methods has been developed. For electrons in disordered systems of scatterers the numerical results have been obtained for series of the average values of the quantum operators including position and momentum dispersions, average energy, energy distribution function as well as for the frequency dependencies of tensor of electron conductivity and permittivity according to quantum Kubo formula. Zero or very small value of static conductivity have been considered as the manifestation of Anderson localization of electrons in 1D case. Independent evidence of Anderson localization comes from the behaviour of the calculated time dependence of position dispersion.
