The statistical theory of certain complex wave interference phenomena, like the statistical fluctuations of transmission and reflection of waves, is of considerable interest in many fields of physics. In this article, we shall be mainly interested in those situations where the complexity derives...

Intensity correlations between waves reflected and transmitted through random media are analyzed within the framework of the random matrix theory of transport. We introduce a new kind of correlations between transmitted and reflected intensities. For transmitted waves, the spatial correlation...

The momentum autocorrelation function c(t) for a quantum oscillator coupled with harmonic forces to a heat bath of oscillators is calculated at low temperatures. It is found that c(t) contains two distinct terms: one, the zero-point contribution c0(t), is temperature independent, and the other,...
