On p-adic Gibbs measures for Ising model with four competing interactions

In this paper we consider a p-adic Ising model with four competing interactions (nearest neighbor, second neighbors and triples of neighbors) on the Cayley tree of order two. We show the uniqueness of the p-adic Gibbs measure for the model. Moreover, we consider p-adic quasi Gibbs measure for the model.     

Phase Transition of Mixed Type <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Adic λ-Ising Model on Cayley Tree

In the present paper, we consider an interaction of the nearest-neighbors and next nearest-neighbors for the mixed type p-adic λ-Ising model with spin values {?1, +1} on the Cayley tree of order two.We obtained the uniqueness and existence of the p-adic quasi Gibbs measures for the model. Thereafter, as a main result, we proved the occurrence of phase transition for the p-adic λ-Ising model on the Cayley tree of order two. To establish the results, we employed some properties of p-adic numbers. Therefore, our results are not valid in the real case.     

On periodic Gibbs measures of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic Potts model on a Cayley tree

In the present paper, we study the existence of periodic p-adic quasi Gibbs measures of p-adic Potts model over the Cayley tree of order two. We first prove that the renormalized dynamical system associated with the model is conjugate to the symbolic shift. As a consequence of this result we obtain the existence of countably many periodic p-adic Gibbs measures for the model.     

A <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic hard-core model with three states on a Cayley tree

We examine the p-adic hard-core model with three states on a Cayley tree. Translationinvariant and periodic p-adic Gibbs measures are studied for the hard-core model for k = 2. We prove that every p-adic Gibbs measure is bounded for p ≠ 2. We show in particular that there is no strong phased transition for a hard-core model on a Cayley tree of order k.     

On uniqueness of Gibbs measure for -adic countable state Potts model on the Cayley tree

In the present paper we consider countable state of p-adic Potts model on the tree. Under some condition on weights we establish uniqueness of Gibbs measures for the model. Note that this condition does not depend on values of the prime p. An analogous fact is not true when the number of spins is finite.     

On <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic quasi Gibbs measures for <Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis> + 1-state Potts model on the Cayley tree

In the present paper we introduce a new kind of p-adic measures, associated with q + 1-state Potts model, called p-adic quasi Gibbs measure, which is totally different from the p-adic Gibbs measure. We establish the existence of p-adic quasi Gibbs measures for the model on a Cayley tree. If q is divisible by p, then we prove the occurrence of a strong phase transition. If q and p are relatively prime, then there is a quasi phase transition. These results are totally different from the results of [F. M. Mukhamedov and U. A. Rozikov, Indag. Math. N. S. 15, 85–100 (2005)], since when q is divisible by p, which means that q + 1 is not divided by p, so according to a main result of the mentioned paper, there is a unique and bounded p-adic Gibbs measure (different from p-adic quasi Gibbs measure)     

On chaotic behaviour of the p-adic generalized Ising mapping and its application

In the present paper, by conducting research on the dynamics of the p-adic generalized Ising mapping corresponding to renormalization group associated with the p-adic Ising-Vannemenus model on a Cayley tree, we have determined the existence of the fixed points of a given function. Simultaneously, the attractors of the dynamical system have been found. We have come to a conclusion that the considered mapping is topologically conjugate to the symbolic shift which implies its chaoticity and as an application, we have established the existence of periodic p-adic Gibbs measures for the p-adic Ising-Vannemenus model.     

On the existence of generalized gibbs measures for the one-dimensional <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic countable state Potts model

We consider the one-dimensional countable state p-adic Potts model. A construction of generalized p-adic Gibbs measures depending on weights λ is given, and an investigation of such measures is reduced to the examination of a p-adic dynamical system. This dynamical system has a form of series of rational functions. Studying such a dynamical system, under some condition concerning weights, we prove the existence of generalized p-adic Gibbs measures. Note that the condition found does not depend on the values of the prime p, and therefore an analogous fact is not true when the number of states is finite. It is also shown that under the condition there may occur a phase transition.     

Multidimensional <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic wavelets for the deformed metric

The approach to p-adic wavelet theory from the point of view of representation theory is discussed. p-Adic wavelet frames can be constructed as orbits of some p-adic groups of transformations. These groups are automorphisms of the tree of balls in the p-adic space. In the present paper we consider deformations of the standard p-adic metric in many dimensions and construct some corresponding groups of transformations. We build several examples of p-adic wavelet bases. We show that the constructed wavelets are eigenvectors of some pseudodifferential operators.     

Model of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Adic Random Walk in a Potential

We consider the p-adic random walk model in a potential which can be viewed as a generalization of p-adic random walk models used for describing protein conformational dynamics. This model is based on the Kolmogorov-Feller equations for the distribution function defined on the field of p-adic numbers in which the transition rate depends on ultrametric distance between the transition points as well as on function of potential violating the spatial homogeneity of a random process. This equation which will be called the equation of p-adic random walk in a potential, is equivalent to the equation of p-adic random walk with modified measure and reaction source. With a special choice of a power-law potential the last equation is shown to have an exact analytic solution. We find the analytic solution of the Cauchy problem for such equation with an initial condition, whose support lies in the ring of integer p-adic numbers.We also examine the asymptotic behaviour of the distribution function for large times. It is shown that in the limit t→∞ the distribution function tends to the equilibrium solution according to the law, which is bounded from above and below by power laws with the same exponent. Our principal conclusion is that the introduction of a potential in the model of p-adic random walk conserves the power-law behaviour of relaxation curves for large times.     

p-Adic dynamics and angle doubling

We consider the squaring map over the p-adic numbers for an odd prime p, and study its symbolic dynamics on the unit circle in ? _p , the p-adic integers. When the map is restricted to the set of squares, we show an equivalence to angle doubling (mod 1) for rational angles. For primes p ≡ 3 (mod 4), this map may be represented as a unitary permutation matrix of the type used in quantum phase estimation.     

On periodic p-adic distributions

In this paper we introduce a notion of periodic p-adic distribution defined on ? _p — the set of p-adic integers. This periodicity depends on a partition of ? _p . For several concrete partitions we describe corresponding periodic p-adic distributions. Moreover, we construct a periodic p-adic measure.     

p-Adic invariant summation of some p-adic functional series

We consider summation of some finite and infinite functional p-adic series with factorials. In particular, we are interested in the infinite series which are convergent for all primes p, and have the same integer value for an integer argument. In this paper, we present rather large class of such p-adic functional series with integer coefficients which contain factorials. By recurrence relations, we constructed sequence of polynomials A _k (n; x) which are a generator for a few other sequences also relevant to some problems in number theory and combinatorics.     

Pseudodifferential <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic vector fields and pseudodifferentiation of a composite <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic function

We discuss transformation of p-adic pseudodifferential operators (in the one-dimensional and multidimensional cases) with respect to p-adic maps which correspond to automorphisms of the tree of balls in the corresponding p-adic spaces. In the dimension one we find a rule of transformation for pseudodifferential operators. In particular we find the formula of pseudodifferentiation of a composite function with respect to the Vladimirov p-adic fractional operator. We describe the frame of wavelets for the group of parabolic automorphisms of the tree T (O _p ) of balls in O _p . In many dimensions we introduce the group of mod p-affine transformations, the family of pseudodifferential operators corresponding to pseudodifferentiation along vector fields on the tree T (O _p ) and obtain a rule of transformation of the introduced pseudodifferential operators with respect to mod p-affine transformations.     

Evolutionary trees and the Ising model on the Bethe lattice: a proof of Steel��s conjecture

A major task of evolutionary biology is the reconstruction of phylogenetic trees from molecular data. The evolutionary model is given by a Markov chain on a tree. Given samples from the leaves of the Markov chain, the goal is to reconstruct the leaf-labelled tree. It is well known that in order to reconstruct a tree on n leaves, sample sequences of length ??(log n) are needed. It was conjectured by Steel that for the CFN/Ising evolutionary model, if the mutation probability on all edges of the tree is less than ${p^{\ast} = (\sqrt{2}-1)/2^{3/2}}$ , then the tree can be recovered from sequences of length O(log n). The value p* is given by the transition point for the extremality of the free Gibbs measure for the Ising model on the binary tree. Steel??s conjecture was proven by the second author in the special case where the tree is ??balanced.?? The second author also proved that if all edges have mutation probability larger than p* then the length needed is n ^??(1). Here we show that Steel??s conjecture holds true for general trees by giving a reconstruction algorithm that recovers the tree from O(log n)-length sequences when the mutation probabilities are discretized and less than p*. Our proof and results demonstrate that extremality of the free Gibbs measure on the infinite binary tree, which has been studied before in probability, statistical physics and computer science, determines how distinguishable are Gibbs measures on finite binary trees.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Adic Analogue of the Porous Medium Equation

We consider a nonlinear evolution equation for complex-valued functions of a real positive time variable and a p-adic spatial variable. This equation is a non-Archimedean counterpart of the fractional porous medium equation. Developing, as a tool, an \(L^1\)-theory of Vladimirov’s p-adic fractional differentiation operator, we prove m-accretivity of the appropriate nonlinear operator, thus obtaining the existence and uniqueness of a mild solution. We give also an example of an explicit solution of the p-adic porous medium equation.     

p-Adic dynamical systems of Chebyshev polynomials

We study the behaviour of the iterates of the Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind in p-adic fields. In particular, we determine in the field of complex p-adic numbers for p > 2, the periodic points of the p-th Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind. These periodic points are attractive points. We describe their basin of attraction. The classification of finite field extensions of the field of p-adic numbers ? _p , enables one to locate precisely, for any integer ν ≥ 1, the ν-periodic points of T _p : they are simple and the nonzero ones lie in the unit circle of the unramified extension of ? _p , (p > 2) of degree ν. This generalizes a result, stated by M. Zuber in his PhD thesis, giving the fixed points of T _p in the field ? _p , (p > 2). As often happens, we consider separately the case p = 2. Also, if the integer n ≥ 2 is not divisible by p, then any fixed point w of T _n is indifferent in the field of p-adic complex numbers and we give for p ≥ 3, the p-adic Siegel disc around w.     

On ergodicity of p-adic dynamical systems for arbitrary prime p

In this paper, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for ergodicity (with respect to the normalized Haar measure) of 1-Lipschitz p-adic functions that are defined on (and valuated in) the space ? _p of p-adic integers for any prime p. The conditions are stated in terms of coordinate representations of p-adic functions.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Adic solid-on-solid model on a Cayley tree

We consider a p-adic solid-on-solid (SOS) model with a nearest-neighbor coupling, m+1 spins, and a coupling constant J ∈ Q _p on a Cayley tree. We find conditions under which a phase transition does not occur in the model. We show that if p | m + 1 for some J, then a phase transition occurs. Moreover, we formulate a criterion for the boundedness of p-adic Gibbs measures for the (m+1)-state SOS model.     

p-Adic valued quantization

This review covers an important domain of p-adic mathematical physics — quantum mechanics with p-adic valued wave functions. We start with basic mathematical constructions of this quantum model: Hilbert spaces over quadratic extensions of the field of p-adic numbers ? _p , operators — symmetric, unitary, isometric, one-parameter groups of unitary isometric operators, the p-adic version of Schrödinger’s quantization, representation of canonical commutation relations in Heisenberg andWeyl forms, spectral properties of the operator of p-adic coordinate.We also present postulates of p-adic valued quantization. Here observables as well as probabilities take values in ? _p . A physical interpretation of p-adic quantities is provided through approximation by rational numbers.
