The Hartree equation for infinite quantum systems
Journées équations aux dérivées partielles (2014), article no. 8, 18 p.

We review some recent results obtained with Mathieu Lewin [21] concerning the nonlinear Hartree equation for density matrices of infinite trace, describing the time evolution of quantum systems with infinitely many particles. Our main result is the asymptotic stability of a large class of translation-invariant density matrices which are stationary solutions to the Hartree equation. We also mention some related result obtained in collaboration with Rupert Frank [13] about Strichartz estimates for orthonormal systems.
