Chapter 32 expounded the basic theory of quantum LB for the case of relativistic and non-relativistic wavefunctions, namely single-particle quantum mechanics. This chapter goes on to cover extensions of the quantum LB formalism to the overly challenging arena of quantum many-body problems and quantum field theory, along with an appraisal of prospective quantum computing implementations. Solving the single particle Schrodinger, or Dirac, equation in three dimensions is a computationally demanding task. This task, however, pales in front of the ordeal of solving the Schrodinger equation for the quantum many-body problem, namely a collection of many quantum particles, typically nuclei and electrons in a given atom or molecule.

This research aims to apply models extracted from the many-body quantum mechanics to describe social dynamics. It is intended to draw macroscopic characteristics of organizational communities starting from the analysis of microscopic interactions with respect to the node model. In this chapter, the authors intend to give an answer to the following question: which models of the quantum physics are suitable to represent the behaviour and the evolution of business processes? The innovative aspects of the project are related to the application of models and methods of the quantum mechanics to social systems. In order to validate the proposed mathematical model, the authors intend to define an open-source platform able to model nodes and interactions within a network, to visualize the macroscopic results through a digital representation of the social networks.

In the previous chapter we discussed the usual realization of many-body quantum mechanics in terms of differential operators (Schrödinger picture). As in the case of the two-body problem, it is possible to formulate many-body quantum mechanics in terms of algebraic operators. This is done by introducing, for each coordinate r1,r2,... and momentum p1, p2, . . . , boson creation and annihilation operators, b†iα, biα. The index i runs over the number of relevant degrees of freedom, while the index α runs from 1 to n + 1, where n is the number of space dimensions (see note 3 of Chapter 2). The boson operators satisfy the usual commutation relations, which are for i ≠ j, . . . [biα, b†jα´] = 0, [biα, bjα´] = 0,. . . . . .[bjα, b†iα´] = 0, [b†jα, b†iα´] = 0,. . . . . . [biα, b†iα´] = ẟαα´, [biα, b†iα´] = 0, [b†iα, b†iα´] = 0. . . .

In this work, we study the quantum tunnel effect through a potential barrier within a semiclassical formulation of quantum mechanics based on expectation values of configuration variables and quantum dispersions as dynamical variables. The evolution of the system is given in terms of a dynamical system for which we are able to determine numerical effective trajectories for individual particles, similar to the Bohmian description of quantum mechanics. We obtain a complete description of the possible trajectories of the system, finding semiclassical reflected, tunneled and confined paths due to the appearance of an effective time-dependent potential.
