Colloquium: Suppressed Dispersion for a Randomly /kicked Quantum Particle in a Dirac Comb

Event Description
Jeremy Clark, visiting assistant professor of mathematics, Michigan State University

 

Abstract: I will discuss the long-term spatial behavior of a model for a quantum particle moving in one dimension. The particle's movement is influenced by a periodic force and random momentum kicks that simulate the effect of the particle colliding with members of a background gas. The results that I will present amount to central limit theorems that contrast the spatial behavior of the particle between the cases in which the periodic force is smooth or has singular peaks.
