Topics in quantum mechanics

 

Throughout the years a variety of studies has been made on timely items in diverse fields of quantum mechanics:
a classical description of quantum brownian motion [P54];
quantization of spherical spins [L26], [P64].
flux-creep in high-temperature superconductors [L13];
objections against a poor theory of quantum 1/f-noise [P13];
quasi-crystalline XY chains [L3], [C5];
a criterion for Anderson localization [P7], [C2].
