5 5 2. Review of classical hydrodynamic theories

6 Microscopic vs macroscopic models 6 Microscopic models: phase-space distribution function f(x, p, t) Boltzmann equation t f + p x f x V p f = Q(f) Macroscopic models: density n(x, t) mean velocity u(x; t) temperature T (x, t)

7 Balance equations (Euler eq.) 7 t n nu n u 2 + 3nT + x = nu nuu + nt Id (n u 2 + 5nT )u 0 n x V nu x V Euler eqs of gas dynamics. Pressure = nt : perfect gas Equation-of-State How to relate macroscopic models to microscopic eq.?

8 Moment method 8 n, q = nu, 2W = n u 2 + 3nT are moments of f: n 1 q = f p dp 2W p 2

9 Moment method 9 Natural idea: (i) multiply Boltzmann eq. by 1, p, p 2 and integrate w.r.t. p: 1 ( t f + p x f x V p f Q(f)) p dp = 0 p 2 (ii) use conservations: 1 Q(f) p p 2 dp = 0

10 Moment method (cont) 10 (iii) Get conservation eqs n 1 q + x f p t 2W p 2 p dp = 0 n x V nu x V Problem: Express fluxes in term of the conserved variables n, q, W fp i p j dp (for i j) and f p 2 p dp cannot be expressed in terms of n, q, W. conservation eqs are not closed

11 Entropy minimization (Gibbs, Levermore) 11 Closure: replace f by a solution of the entropy minimization problem: Let n, T R +, u R 3 fixed. Find min{h(f) = f(ln f 1)dp s.t. 1 n f p dp = nu p 2 n u 2 + 3nT }

12 Entropy minimization (cont) 12 Entropy minimization problem has solution: ) n p u 2 M n,u,t = exp ( (2πT ) 3/2 2T Maxwellian satisfies M n,u,t 1 p p 2 dp = n nu n u 2 + 3nT Gives the Euler eqs. of gas dynamics Levermore closures if more moments are retained

13 Quantum case 13 Idea: use the same idea for quantum models. Not so simple...

14 14 3. Quantum setting: basics

15 Density operator 15 Basic object: ρ: Hermitian, postive, trace-class operator on L 2 (R d ) s.t. Typically: Trρ = 1 ρψ = s S ρ s (ψ, φ s ) φ s for a complete orthonormal system (φ s ) s S and real numbers (ρ s ) s S such that 0 ρ s 1, ρ s = 1

16 Quantum Liouville equation 16 i t ρ = [H, ρ] + Q(ρ) H = Hamiltonian: Hψ = 2 2 ψ + V (x, t)ψ Q(ρ) unspecified: accounts for dissipation mechnisms

17 Wigner Transform 17 ρ(x, x ) integral kernel of ρ: ρψ = ρ(x, x )ψ(x ) dx W [ρ](x, p) Wigner transform of ρ: W [ρ](x, p) = ρ(x 1 2 ξ, x + 1 ξ p ξ) ei 2 dξ

18 Inverse Wigner transform (Weyl quantization) 18 Let w(x, p). ρ = W 1 (w) is the operator defined by: W 1 (w)ψ = 1 w( x + y (2π) d 2, k) ψ(y)eik(x y) dk dy w= Weyl symbol of ρ. Isometries between L 2 (Operators s.t. ρρ is trace-class) and L 2 (R 2d ): Tr{ρσ dx dp } = W [ρ](x, p)w [σ](x, p) (2π ) d

19 Wigner equation 19 Eq. for w = W [ρ]: t w + p x w + Θ [V ]w = Q(w) Θ [V ]w = i (2π) d (V (x + 2 η) V (x 2 η)) w(x, q) e iη (p q) dq dη Θ [V ]w 0 x V p w Q(w) collision operator (unspecified)

20 20 4. Review of quantum hydrodynamic theories

21 1-particle quantum hydrodynamics 21 Single state ψ Decompose i t ψ = 2 2 ψ + V (x, t)ψ ψ = ne is/ and define u = x S. Then take real and imaginary parts t n + x nu = 0 t S S 2 + V n n = 0

22 1-particle QHD (cont) 22 Take of the phase eq. t n + x nu = 0 t u + u x u = x (V + V B ) V B = 2 2 V B = Bohm potential 1 n n Pressureless Gas dynamics w. additional Bohm potential term, of order O( 2 )

23 Many-particle case 23 Procedure: Start w. statistical state, i.e. density operator Average over the probabilities ρ s = Closure problem Closure strategies: Fourier law for the heat flux [Gardner] Small temperature [Gasser, Markowich, Ringhofer] Chapman-Enskog expansion [Gardner, Ringhofer] Entropy minimization [D.,Ringhofer]

24 24 5. QHD via entropy minimization

25 Moments 25 Defined as in classical mechanics: Moments of the Wigner distribution List of monomials µ i (p) e.g. (1, p, p 2 ) µ(p) = (µ i (p)) N i=0 w(x, p) moments m[w] = (m i [w]) N i=0 m i [w] = w(x, p) µ i (p) dp e.g. m = (n, q, W )

26 Moment method Take moments of the Wigner equation: t m[w]+ x w µ p dp+ Θ[V ]w µ dp = Q(w) µ dp 26 Assume conservations Q(w) µ dp = 0 Closure problem: find an expression of the integrals at the l.h.s.

27 Entropy minimization principle 27 Entropy: H[ρ] = Tr{ρ(ln ρ 1)} ; ρ = W 1 (w) Given a set of moments m = (m i (x)) N i=0, minimize H(ρ) subject to the constraint that W [ρ](x, p) µ(p) dp = m(x) x Problem: express the moment constraints in terms of ρ

28 Moments in terms of ρ 28 Dualize the constraint: Let λ(x) = (λ i (x)) N i=0 be an arbitrary (vector) test function w(x, p) µ(p)λ(x) dx dp (2π ) d = m(x) λ(x) dx (2π ) d Tr{ρ W 1 [µ(p) λ(x)]} = m(x) λ(x) dx (2π ) d

29 Entropy minimization principle: expression 29 Given a set of (physically admissible) moments m = (m i (x)) N i=0, solve min{ H[ρ] = Tr{ρ(ln ρ 1)} Tr{ρ W 1 [µ(p) λ(x)]} = λ = (λ i (x)) N i=0 } m λ subject to: dx (2π ) d

30 Solution of the entropy problem 30 Solution is ρ α, ρ α = exp(w 1 [α(x) µ(p)]) α = (α i (x)) N i=0 is determined s.t. m[ρ α] = m w α = W [ρ α ] = Exp(α(x) µ(p)) Exp w = W [exp(w 1 (w))] (Quantum exponential) Analogy with the classical case M α = exp(α µ)

31 Quantum moment models 31 Take moments of the Wigner eq. and close with the quantum Maxwellian: t Exp(α µ) µ dp + x Exp(α µ) µ p dp + Θ[V ]Exp(α µ) µ dp = 0 Provides an evolution system for the vector function α(x, t)

32 Entropy 32 Kinetic entropy H[ρ] in terms of w = W [ρ]: dx dp H[ρ] = Tr{ρ(ln(ρ 1)} = w(ln w 1) (2π ) d with quantum log: Ln w = W [ln(w 1 (w))] Fluid entropy S(m): S(m) = H[ρ α ] = Exp(α µ)((α µ) 1) dx dp (2π ) d where α is s.t. Exp(α µ)µdp = m

33 Entropy (cont) 33 S(m) convex Define: Σ(α), Legendre dual of S Inversion of the mapping α m: δs δm = α, δσ δα = m Moment models compatible with the entropy dissipation t S(m(t)) 0 for any solution m(t) of the QHD equations

34 Quantum Hydrodynamics 34 µ = {1, p, p 2 } t n + x nu = 0 t nu + x (nuu + P) = n x V t W + x (W u + Pu + Q) = nu x V with P = pressure tensor, Q = heat flux: P = Exp(α µ)(p u)(p u)dp 2Q = Exp(α µ) p u 2 (p u)dp

35 Quantum Hydrodynamics (cont) 35 and s.t. α µ = A + B p + C p 2 Exp(α µ)µdp = (n, nu, W ) T r

36 36 6. Quantum collision operators

37 Classical Boltzmann operator 37 Q(w) = B( p p 1, Ω)(w w 1 ww 1 )dp 1 dω p + p 1 = p + p 1 p 2 + p 2 1 = p 2 + p 2 1 Ω S 2 scattering angle; B scattering cross-section Preserves mass, momentum and energy locally Kernel classical maxwellians Dissipates classical entropy Q(w) ln w dw 0

38 Quantum Boltzmann operator 38 Requirements: has the same shape as the classical one Preserves mass, momentum and energy locally Kernel quantum maxwellians Dissipate quantum entropy dx dp Q(w) Ln w (2π ) 0 d

39 Quantum Boltzmann operator (cont) 39 Q(w) = B( p p 1, Ω) (A(w) A(w) 1 A(w)A(w) 1 )dp 1 dω where A(w) is the conversion operator : A(w) = exp Ln w

40 Quantum BGK operator 40 where s.t. Q(w) = M w w M w = Exp(A + B p + C p 2 ) (M w w)µ dp = 0 for µ = (1, p, p 2 )

41 41 7. Quantum Energy-Transport and Drift-Diffusion models Collaboration w. C. Ringhofer and F. Méhats

42 Quantum Energy-Transport or Drift-Diffusion42 Rescaled Wigner equation (ε 1) ε t w + p x w + Θ [V ]w = ε 1 Q(w) Q(w) = M w w M w = Exp(A + C p 2 ) (M w w)µ dp = 0 µ = (1, p 2 ) Energy-Transport µ = 1; C = 1/2T fixed Drift-Diffusion

43 Quantum Energy-Transport (cont) 43 ε 0 (diffusion approximation) Energy transport: t Exp(A + C p 2 ) ( 1 p 2 T 2 Exp(A + C p 2 ) with T w = (p x + Θ [V ])w ) ( dp 1 p 2 ) dp = 0

44 Quantum Drift-Diffusion (cont) 44 Drift-Diffusion: t Exp(A p 2 /2T ) dp T 2 Exp(A p 2 /2T ) dp = 0 QET and QDD are consistent with quantum entropy dissipation. e.g. ET case: t S(n, W ) 0 with (n, W ) T r = Exp(A + C p 2 )(1, p 2 ) T r dp

45 2 expansions of QET and QDD 45 0 gives classical ET or DD models (diffusion models) O( 2 ) corrections to classical DD: t n x (T x n + n x (V + V B )) = 0 V B = Bohm potential: V B = n x n = 0

46 O( 2 ) corrections to classical DD or ET 46 O( 2 ) terms in quantum ET very complex model QDD up to O( 2 ) terms is consistent with quantum entropy dissipation: t S(n) 0 QET up to O( 2 ) terms is not consistent with quantum entropy dissipation.

47 47 8. Summary and conclusion

Close by a minimizer of the entropy functional leads to: Formulation of the entropy minimization problem as a global problem (local in classical mechanics) Non-local closure to the Quantum Hydrodynamics eq.
