Correlation functions in a one-dimensional Bose gas

The problem of calculating correlation functions is considered for the one-dimensional Bose gas with a delta-function repulsive interaction between particles. The method of calculation is based on the algebraic Bethe ansatz.

Momentum Autocorrelation Function of a Particle in a One-Dimensional Box

J. M. Deutch, James L. Kinsey, R. Silbey

The momentum autocorrelation function of a particle in a one-dimensional box is calculated both classically and quantum mechanically. The classical function is found by using the eigenfunctions of the Liouville operator for the system. The quantum-mechanical function is calculated and shown to be a non-analytic function of ℏ.

Dynamic correlation functions in quantum many-body systems at zero temperature

Eduardo R. Gagliano, C. A. Balseiro

We present a simple numerical approach to compute dynamic correlation functions in quantum many-body systems at zero temperature. The method is based on a projective technique for the memory-function formalism, and requires as a starting point an independent evaluation of the ground-state energy and wave function. We illustrate the method with a one-dimensional model of spinless fermions and calculate the density-density, current-current, and single-particle correlation functions. The obtained spectral functions show different types of elementary excitations: particle-hole, soliton-antisoliton, exciton, etc. We compare our results with analytical results, and with those obtained through different approaches available in the literature.

When the classical & quantum mechanical considerations hint to a single point; a microscopic particle in a one dimensional box with two infinite walls and a linear potential inside it

Majid Monajjemi, K. Zare, A.R. Zieglari

In this paper we have solved analytically the Schrodinger equation for a microscopic particle in a one-dimensional box with two infinite walls, which the potential function inside it, has a linear form. Based on the solutions of this special quantum mechanical system, we have shown that as the quantum number approaches infinity the expectation values of microscopic particle position and square of the linear momentum are equal to the classical time average of particle position and its square of the linear momentum, respectively.
