Title
Path-integral approach to the thermodynamics of bosons with memory : partition function and specific heat
Author
Abstract
For a system of bosons that interact through a class of general memory kernels, a recurrence relation for the partition function is derived within the path-integral formalism. This approach provides a generalization to previously known treatments in the literature of harmonically coupled systems of identical particles. As an example the result is applied to the specific heat of a simplified model of an open quantum system of bosons, harmonically coupled to a reservoir of distinguishable fictitious masses.
