research

My research activity has ranged over a variety of topics, both from the theoretical and the phenomenological points of view, also with the help of numerical techniques. A common feature is the study of complex quantum systems, i.e. systems showing a complex behavior due to the presence of many, quantum degrees of freedom. A particular attention has been deserved to mesoscopic systems, e.g. semiconductor heterostructures or, more recently, dilute atomic gases, in which classical and quantum features have a rich interplay. A list of keywords describing my research activity should include: probabilistic representation of linear flows, Monte Carlo methods for many-body systems, degenerate dilute gases, dark solitons in nonlinear Schrödinger equations, quantum theory of measurement and classical limit, chaos in many-body quantum systems, transport properties in resonant tunneling heterostructures, Schrödinger equations with concentrated nonlinearities, quantum noise in tunneling, stochastic resonance, Auger spectroscopy in metallic systems.
