Funções de Green em Mecânica Estatística

Márcio Freire

In this work we will establish the definitions of the Green’s functions in statistical mechanics and their basic properties. These functions depend on double-time and temperature. It can be observed by mean of theier definitions, where we can find the medium values of the operators product, this average is done over the grand canonical ensemble, for instance, (FAB(t − t0) ≡ hAˆ(t)Bˆ(t0)i ou FBA(t − t0) ≡ hBˆ(t0)Aˆ(t)i), with β = 1/kBT, and T is the absolute temperature. The operators involved in theses functions satisfy the Heisenberg equation of motion, which permit us describe the evolution equations for Green’s functions. By mean of spectral representation of the time correlation functions(FAB(t−t0) ≡ hAˆ(t)Bˆ(t0 )i or FBA(t−t0) ≡ hBˆ(t0)Aˆ(t)i), that is done by the introduction of a Fourier transform to change the system from time-space to frequency-space, we can obtain the spectral representations for the retarded Gr, advanced Gr e causal Gc green’s functions. Lastly, we will make the use of retarded green’s function to describe the electrical conductivity of a system of electrons under a external time-dependent electric field, in others words, we will write the electrical conductivity tensor in terms of Gr and, at last, we will calculate the electrical conductivity of a system of electrons and phonons.

THE BINARY COLLISION EXPANSION OF DOUBLE-TIME-TEMPERATURE-DEPENDENT GREEN'S FUNCTIONS

Chien-hua Tsai, Han Shun Hsu

摘要应用李政道和杨振宁提出的二元碰撞展开法,对于有强短程排斥互作用的多粒子系发展了一种按图形计算双时间-温度格临函数的规则,其各级近似由二体散射相移的各次幂所表征。文中得出了玻色和费米统计情形的计算规则,并且研究了有凝聚相存在的玻色系统。本文主要讨论了单粒子格临函数的图形技术,但容易将它们推广应用于计算各种时间-温度格临函数。 Abstract The method of binary collision expansion has been employed to obtain series developments in powers of the scattering length between two particles for double-time-temperature-dependent Green's functions of statistical mechanics. We have studied the cases of Bose and Fermi statistics as well as the case of a Bose system in the presence of a condensed phase, and have established rules for computation of the successive terms of expansion with the aid of diagrams. The present method is applicable to many particle systems with strong and short-ranged mainly repulsive two-body interactions. 作者及机构信息蔡建华1, 徐宏华2 (1)南京大学物理系; (2)南京大学物理系,1964年应届毕业生 Authors and contacts C.

ON THE APPLICATION OF THE METHOD OF GREEN FUNCTIONS TO SOME PROBLEMS IN QUANTUM STATISTICAL MECHANICS

R. Dobbertin

The Green functions method for calculations on particle interactions is outlined. The calculation of the thermodynamic potential, energy spectrum, and other quantities for an equilibrium system of bosons and fermions is considered, together with the calculation of the thermodynamic potential of correlation, the plasma frequency, and dispersion relations for a plasma.
