Abstract

For a system of N≫1 spinless quantum particles, the projection operator is introduced, which, surprisingly, exactly transforms the inhomogeneous (with irrelevant initial correlations term) Nakajima-Zwanzig generalized master equation (GME) into completely closed (homogeneous) GME with initial correlations included into the kernel governing its evolution. The obtained equation is equivalent to the closed linear evolution equation for an S-particle (S

期刊介绍： Physical Review E (PRE), broad and interdisciplinary in scope, focuses on collective phenomena of many-body systems, with statistical physics and nonlinear dynamics as the central themes of the journal. Physical Review E publishes recent developments in biological and soft matter physics including granular materials, colloids, complex fluids, liquid crystals, and polymers. The journal covers fluid dynamics and plasma physics and includes sections on computational and interdisciplinary physics, for example, complex networks.
