A dissipative threshold is observed at finite temperatures due to nonlinear dissipation. The quantum decay rate of a metastable state including higher-order expanded terms of the coupling form function is proposed, which can be strongly decreased at finite temperatures when the quantum dissipative threshold is added to the saddle point of the potential.展开更多

In this limit regime, the solution is highly oscillatory in time, i.e., there are propagating waves with wavelength O（ ε^2） and O（1） in time and space, respectively. We begin with the conservative Crank-Nicolson finite difference （CNFD） method and establish rigorously its error estimate which depends explicitly on the mesh size h and time step τ- as well as the small parameter 0 〈 ε≤1 Based on the error bound, in order to obtain ＇correct＇ numerical solutions in the nonrelativistic limit regime, i.e., 0 〈 ε≤1 , the CNFD method requests the ε-scalability： τ- = O（ε3） and h = O（√ε）. Then we propose and analyze two numerical methods for the discretization of NLDE by using the Fourier spectral discretization for spatial derivatives combined with the exponential wave integrator and time- splitting technique for temporal derivatives, respectively. Rigorous error bounds for the two numerical methods show that their ε-scalability is improved to τ = O（ε2） and h = O（1） when 0 〈 ε 〈〈 1. Extensive numerical results are reported to confirm our error estimates.展开更多
