Electroweak interactions at an infinite sublayer quark level. II

It is shown that the standard model of the electroweak interactions holds at an infinite sublayer quark level, insofar as we consider the weak isospin doublet (u _{L,u L} ^cp , whereu is an infinite number of quarks at an infinite sublayer level.     

Electroweak interactions at an infinite sublayer quark level. III.CP violation

In a previous paper we proposed the infinite sublayer quark model, in which there exists an infinite number of quarksu and antiquarksu ^c at an infinite sublayer level. By applying the standard model of the electroweak interactions to the weak isospin doublets (u _L ,u _L ^cp ) ^T and (u _L ,u _L ^ct ) ^T , it is shown that there exists only one phase factor, which causesCP violation.     

Quasi-classical limit of BKP hierarchy andW-infinity symmetries

Previous results on quasi-classical limit of the KP and Toda hierarchies are now extended to the BKP hierarchy. Basic tools such as the Lax representation, the Baker-Akhiezer function and the tau function are reformulated so as to fit into the analysis of quasi-classical limit. Two subalgebrasW ₁ ^B ₊ andw ₁ ^B ₊ of theW-infinity algebrasW _{1 +} andw _{1 +} are introduced as fundamental Lie algebras of the BKP hierarchy and its quasi-classical limit, the dispersionless BKP hierarchy. The quantumW-infinity algebraW ₁ ^B ₊ emerges in symmetries of the BKP hierarchy. In quasi-classical limit, theseW ₁ ^B ₊ symmetries are shown to be contracted intow ₁ ^B ₊ symmetries of the dispersionless BKP hierarchy.     

Electroweak interactions at an infinite sublayer quark level

In a previous paper, we proposed the infinite sublayer quark model, in which there exists an infinite number of quarksu and antiquarksu ^c at an infinite sublayer level. By applying the standard model of the electroweak interactions to the weak isospin doublet (u ,u ^c ) ^T it is shown that there exists only one gauge fieldW _µ ³ , from which the electromagnetic fieldA _µ=W _µ ³ cos _w and the neutral vector boson fieldZ _µ ⁰ =W _µ ³ sin _w are derived.     

Anomalies and curvature ofW manifolds

We study the holomorphic structure of certain complex manifolds associated withW algebras, namely, the flag manifoldsW /T andW ₁₊/T ₁₊, and the spacesW /SL(),R) andW ₁₊/GL(,R), whereT andT ₁₊ are the maximal tori inW andW ₁₊. We compute their Ricci curvature and show how the results are related to the anomaly-freedom conditions forW andW ₁₊. We discuss the relation of these manifolds with extensions of universal Teichmüller space.Supported in part by the U.S. Department of Energy, under grant DE-AS05-81ER40039Supported in part by the U.S. Department of Energy, under grant DE-FG03-84ER40168     

Fock representations of the affine Lie algebraA 1 (1)

The aim of this note is to show that the affine Lie algebraA ₁ ⁽¹⁾ has a natural family _, ,v of Fock representations on the spaceC[x _i,y _j;i andj ], parametrized by (,v) C ². By corresponding the highest weight _, of _, to each (,), the parameter spaceC ₂ forms a double cover of the weight spaceC₀C –₁ with singularities at linear forms of level –2; this number is (–1)-times the dual Coxeter number. Our results contain explicit realizations of irreducible non-integrable highest wieghtA ₁ ⁽¹⁾ -modules for generic (,v).

Spouge's Conjecture on Complete and Instantaneous Gelation

We investigate the stochastic counterpart of the Smoluchowski coagulation equation, namely the Marcus–Lushnikov coagulation model. It is believed that for a broad class of kernels, all particles are swept into one huge cluster in an arbitrarily small time, which is known as a complete and instantaneous gelation phenomenon. Indeed, Spouge (also Domilovskii et al. for a special case) conjectured that K(i, j)=(ij) , >1, are such kernels. In this paper, we extend the above conjecture and prove rigorously that if there is a function (i, j), increasing in both i and j such that _j=1 1/(j(i, j))< for all i, and K(i, j)ij(i, j) for all i, j, then complete and instantaneous gelation occurs. Evidently, this implies that any kernels K(i, j)ij(log(i+1)log(j+1)) , >1, exhibit complete instantaneous gelation. Also, we conjuncture the existence of a critical (or metastable) sol state: if lim _i+j ij/K(i, j)=0 and _{i, j=1} 1/K(i, j)=, then gelation time T _g satisfies 0<T _g<. Moreover, the gelation is complete after T _g.     

Group classification of scalar fields with potential interaction

A system of scalar fields with Lagrangian L=(1/2)u_,iu^,i + V(u) in multi-dimensional space—time is considered. The structure of the permissible Lie group is studied for an arbitrary field multiplet. A complete group classification of field doublets and triplets is presented. All conservative fluxes of these systems are calculated.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 3, pp. 116–121, March, 1995.

The surfboard Schrödinger equations

We study the large time behavior of solutions of time dependent Schrödinger equationsiu/t=–(1/2)u+t V(x/t)u with bounded potentialV(x). We show that (1) if>–1, all solutions are asymptotically free ast, (2) if–1 a solution becomes asymptotically free if and only if it has the momentum support outside of suppV for large time, (3) if –1 <0 all solutions are still asymptotically modified free ast and that (4) if 0 <2, for each local minimumx ₀ ofV(x), there exist solutions which are asymptotically Gaussians centered atx=tx ₀ and spreading slowly ast.     

Parametric relaxation of spectra

We study the change of an quasienergy spectrum upon variation of the weight of a perturbation in the Floquet operatorF=F ₀e^–iV . Employing ideas from level dynamics and random matrix-theory we show that the distribution of nearest-neighbor spacings can display effectively irreversible behavior. Small deviations from equilibrium relax in a certain collision time which scales with the numberN of levels as _collN ^–3/2.

Let be aC -manifold and _s and _u be two Hölder foliations, transverse, and with uniformlyC leaves. If a functionf is uniformlyC along the leaves of the two foliations, then it isC on . The proof is elementary.     

Can particle creation by a black hole be described in terms of more familiar laboratory processes?

Particle creation by a black hole is described in terms of temperature corrections to the Casimir effect. The results of Levin, Polevoy, and Ritov for spectral and total Poynting vector for a fluctuating electromagnetic field in a plane vacuum gap between two arbitrary media with different temperatures in flat spacetime are applied to clarify the situation that exists between the horizon of a nonrotating black hole and spatial infinity. This helps to reveal the mechanism of particle creation. The Hawking radiation is born inside the bell formed by a potential barrier of a black hole in all the region [2M, ]. Its blackbody spectrum is due to the interaction of field fluctuations with the surface of the bell. The particles between the walls are virtual ones. They can become real after passing through the [3M, ] tail, appearing to an observer at future infinityJ ⁺ as real ones. The arguments for and against the present standpoint are discussed.     

Differential operator Lie algebras on the ring of Laurent polynomials

A class of differential operator Lie algebras on the unit circle is introduced and discussed. They are the natural generalizations of the Witt algebra and the Virasoro algebra. Among them are the higher-spin algebrasW ₁₊ andW which occur in the physics literature.     

The low energy scattering for slowly decreasing potentials

For the radial Schrödinger equation with a potentialq(x) decreasing at infinity asq ₀ q ^–, (0, 2), the low energy asymptotics of spectral and scattering data is found. In particular, it is shown that forq ₀>0 the spectral function vanishes exponentially as the energyk ² tends to zero. On the contrary, there is always a zero-energy resonance forq ₀<0. These results determine the local asymptotics of solutions of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for large timest. Specifically, for positive potentials its solutions decay as exp(–₀ t ^(2–)/(2+), ₀>0,t. In the case (1, 2) it is shown that for ±q ₀>0 the phase shift tends to ± ask0 and its asymptotics is evaluated.     

The Klein-Gordon equation with light-cone data

It is shown that the characteristic Cauchy problem ·u(x,t)=0,u(x,–|x|)=f(x),x ⁿ ,n1 has a unique finite energy weak solution for allf such that dx(|f|²+|f|²)< and all finite energy weak solutions of the equation are obtained in this way.     

Nontrivial extensions of a representation of the Poincaré group with mass and helicity zero by its tensorial product

Let U(a, ) be a representation of the Poincaré group with mass and helicity zero, realized in the space of C -functions with compact support on ³, without the origin. Let U ⁽²⁾(a, ) denote the tensorial product of U(a, ) by itself. We explicitly determine the cocycles of extension of U(a, ) by U ⁽²⁾(a, ) and we prove that the nontrivial cohomology is indexed by (u(),),u()D ¹ _]0,3\,.     

On the absence of intermediate phases in the two-dimensional Coulomb gas

For a simple, continuum two-dimensional Coulomb gas (with soft cutoff), Gallavotti and Nicoló [J. Stat. Phys. 38:133–156 (1985)] have proved the existence of finite coefficients in the Mayer activity expansion up to order 2n below a series of temperature thresholdsT _n =T [1+(2n–1)^–1] (n=1, 2,...). With this in mind they conjectured that an infinite sequence of intermediate, multipole phases appears between the exponentially screened plasma phase aboveT ₁ and the full, unscreened Kosterilitz-Thouless phase belowT T _KT. We demonstrate that Debye-Hückel-Bjerrum theory, as recently investigated ford=2 dimensions, provides a natural and quite probably correct explanation of the pattern of finite Mayer coefficients while indicating the totalabsence of any intermediate phases at nonzero density ; only the KT phase extends to >0.
