| 41. | Correlation functions describe how microscopic variables, such as spin and density, at different positions are related.
|
| 42. | Where h ( r ) and c ( r ) are the indirect and direct correlation functions respectively.
|
| 43. | Thus a symmetry in the Hamiltonian becomes a symmetry of the correlation function ( and vice versa ).
|
| 44. | Asymptotics of correlation functions ( even for space, time and temperature dependence ) were evaluated in 1991.
|
| 45. | Correlation functions of local operators living on the boundary of AdS are the natural analogues of scattering amplitudes.
|
| 46. | This allows, for example, the partition function to be used as a generating function for correlation functions.
|
| 47. | A more general definition for photon antibunching concerns the slope of the correlation function away from zero time delay.
|
| 48. | The second, the indirect correlation function, accounts for the effects of a third particle in a system.
|
| 49. | Schwinger's foundational work on quantum field theory constructed the modern framework of field correlation functions and their anomalies.
|
| 50. | This is discussed below in the section on the temporal evolution of correlation functions and Onsager's regression hypothesis.
