Discontinuity of Continuum Fermion Dynamics
Abstract
We study the Heisenberg dynamics of continuum fermions in IRd interacting through a pair potential. For a large class of nonconstant pair potentials and under suitable assumptions on the dispersion relation and external potential, we prove that the dynamics fails to be pointwise-norm continuous even on the gauge-invariant CAR algebra. An automatic-continuity argument then shows that neither the CAR algebra nor its gauge-invariant subalgebra is invariant under the dynamics, with non-invariance occurring for almost all times.
