The Reeh–Schlieder property for ground states

Published Jun 18, 2003• 1 citation

Abstract

Recently it has been shown that the Reeh–Schlieder property w.r.t. thermal equilibrium states is a direct consequence of locality, additivity and the relativistic KMS condition. Here we extend this result to ground states.

The Reeh–Schlieder property for thermal field theories

Christian D. Jäkel

We show that the Reeh–Schlieder property w.r.t. KMS states is a direct consequence of locality, additivity, and the relativistic KMS condition. The latter characterizes the thermal equilibrium states of a relativistic quantum field theory. The statement remains valid even if the given equilibrium state breaks spatial translation invariance.

Towards a Relativistic KMS Condition

Jacques Bros A, Service de Physique Theorique, Detlev Buchholz A

It is shown that, under quite general conditions, thermal correlation functions in relativistic quantum field theory have stronger analyticity properties in configuration space than those imposed by the KMS-condition. These analyticity properties may be understood as a remnant of the relativistic spectrum condition in the vacuum sector and lead to a Lorentz-covariant formulation of the KMS-condition involving all space-time variables. 1

Thermodynamic Properties of Non-Equilibrium States in Quantum Field Theory

Detlev Buchholz A, Izumi Ojima, H. Roos

Within the framework of relativistic quantum field theory, a novel method is established which allows to distinguish non-equilibrium states admitting locally a thermodynamic interpretation. The basic idea is to compare these states with global equilibrium states (KMS states) by means of local thermal observables. With the help of such observables, the states can be ordered into classes of increasing local thermal stability. Moreover, it is possible to identify states exhibiting certain specific thermal properties of interest, such as a definite local temperature or entropy density. The method is illustrated in a simple model describing the spatio-temporal evolution of a “big heat bang”. 1
