    Asymptotic estimates related to an integro differential equation

    Full text link
    The paper deals with an integrodifferential operator which models numerous phenomena in superconductivity, in biology and in viscoelasticity. Initialboundary value problems with Neumann, Dirichlet and mixed boundary conditions are analyzed. An asymptotic analysis is achieved proving that for large t, the in uences of the initial data vanish, while the effects of boundary disturbances are everywhere bounded

    An exact representation of the fermion dynamics in terms of Poisson processes and its connection with Monte Carlo algorithms

    Full text link
    We present a simple derivation of a Feynman-Kac type formula to study fermionic systems. In this approach the real time or the imaginary time dynamics is expressed in terms of the evolution of a collection of Poisson processes. A computer implementation of this formula leads to a family of algorithms parametrized by the values of the jump rates of the Poisson processes. From these an optimal algorithm can be chosen which coincides with the Green Function Monte Carlo method in the limit when the latter becomes exact.Comment: 4 pages, 1 PostScript figure, REVTe
