  1. 1. Numerical Simulations of Resonant Tunnelling Diodes

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Love Sundström; Alexander Holmström Janeld; [2023]
    Keywords : Quantum mechanics; numerical methods; resonant tunnelling diode;

    Abstract : In this thesis, four different numerical techniques are implemented for the purpose of simulating resonant tunnelling diodes (RTDs). The chosen methods were: piecewise constant transfer matrix (TMM-C), piecewise linear transfer matrix (TMM-L), quantum transmitting boundary method (QTBM), and the Crank-Nicolson method (CN).

  2. 2. Creating Artificial Quantum Chiral States : Time Evolving Open Spin Chains

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Materialteori

    Author : Emil Beiersdorf; [2023]
    Keywords : Quantum chirality; chirality; spin interaction; Heisenberg interaction; DM interaction; quantum physics; quantum mechanics; molecular nanomagnet; mathematical physics; theoretical physics; Kvantkiralitet; kiralitet; spinninteraktioner; Heisenberginteraktion; DMinteraktion; kvantfysik; kvantmekanik; molekylär nanomagnet; matematisk fysik; teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : The discoveries in applications of chirality in various areas of science seem to never cease to emerge. Chirality, being the property that some objects are geometrically distinguishable from their mirror image, is a tiny difference of vast importance. READ MORE

  3. 3. Local Integrals of Motion from Neural Networks

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Hannes Karlsson; [2023]
    Keywords : many-body localization; integrals of motion; neural networks; machine learning; flerkroppslokalisering; rörelseintegraler; neurala nätverk; maskininlärning;

    Abstract : Neural network quantum states (NNQS) is a novel machine learning method, based on restricted Boltzmann machines, previously used to represent the wave function in many-body quantum mechanics. In this thesis, we use NNQS to instead find integrals of motion, i.e., operators, commuting with the Hamiltonian, describing a system. READ MORE

  4. 4. Braids and configuration spaces

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Geometri och fysik

    Author : Andersson Rasmus; [2023]
    Keywords : braids; braid groups; configuration space; algebraic topology; group theory; fundamental group; covering spaces;

    Abstract : A configuration space is a space whose points represent the possible states of a given physical system. As such they appear naturally both in theoretical physics and technical applications. READ MORE

  5. 5. An Introduction to Hitchin Systems

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH; Lunds universitet/Matematik (naturvetenskapliga fakulteten); Lunds universitet/Matematikcentrum

    Author : Manuel Neumayer; [2023]
    Keywords : Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to introduce the tools that are needed to understand — and historically led to the inception of — Hitchin systems. We lay out a basic theory of Hamiltonian systems on symplectic manifolds, and prove the Liouville-Arnold theorem, which states that integrable Hamiltonian systems admit coordinates in which their solution is basically linear.
