Emergence of quantum Boltzmann dynamics in boson and fermion gases
This talk presents some recent results regarding the emergence of quantum Boltzmann dynamics in interacting quantum manybody systems. For bosons, this phenomenon is studied in joint work with Michael Hott for the renormalized fluctuation field around a Bose-Einstein condensate. In the case of fermions, we present recent joint work with Esteban Cardenas which describes a subtle interplay between Boltzmann type collisions and interactions with bosonized electron-hole pairs
