Abstract

As in the previous chapter, we consider the fermionic mean-field regime. At positive temperature the state of the system is not described by a vector in the Hilbert space anymore. However, the Araki-Wyss representation allows us to describe it by a vector in a ‘doubled’ Hilbert space. We use the Araki-Wyss method to derive the time-dependent Hartree-Fock equation for mixed states.
