However, in practice, directly measuring this Hamiltonian is not possible, as such, methods need to be developed to calculate the Hamiltonian potentials from measurable data. In this work we give an expansion of the chemical potential in terms of the correlation functions of such a system in the thermodynamic limit. This is a justification of a formal approach of Nettleton and Green from the 50's.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-12-20T16:07:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "82B21" ], "keywords": [ "correlation functions", "chemical potential", "finite volume gibbs measure", "interacting particle systems", "recovering" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
