Jean-Bernard Bru (Bilbao, Spain): "AC-Conductivity Measure from the Entropy Production of Fermions in Disordered Media"
Thursday 25 April 2013, 15:20 - 16:05
Amphi Hermite
I will present a notion of "AC-conductivity measure" in linear response theory for free fermions on the lattice subjected to a random potential and an electric field that is time- and space-dependent. This notion is based on the positivity of the entropy production and Bochner's theorem. I will additionally explain Green-Kubo relations involving time-correlations of bosonic fields coming from current fluctuations in the system. General properties of the AC-conductivity measure, as its behavior at large, small and moderate randomness, will also be discussed.
Joint work with W. de Siqueira Pedra and C. Kurig.
