Giacomo Gradenigo (Gran Sasso Science Institute) Abstract:
We explain how accurate large-deviations estimates allow to compute the microcanonical partition function of the Discrete Non-Linear Schroedinger Equation (DNLSE), revealing all the peculiarities of the high-energy localized phase, from ensemble inequivalence to the mixed first/second order nature of the transition.
The same large-deviation approach is then applied to the calculation of the canonical partition function for free bosons, highlighting the analogies and differences between the transition in the DNLSE and Bose-Einstein condensation. |
