Spin edge helices in a perpendicular magnetic field

We present an exact solution to the problem of the spin edge states in the presence of equal Bychkov-Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit fields in a two-dimensional electron system, restricted by a hard-wall confining potential and exposed to a perpendicular magnetic field. We find that the spectrum of the spin edge states depends critically on the orientation of the sample edges with respect to the crystallographic axes. Such a strikingly different spectral behavior generates new modes of the persistent spin helix-spin edge helices with novel properties, which can be tuned by the applied electric and magnetic fields.     

Compensation temperatures,magnetic susceptibilities and phase diagrams of a mixed ferrimagnetic ternary system on the Bethe lattice

Compensation behaviors, magnetic susceptibilities and the phase diagrams of the ternary system of the type ABC consisting of Ising spins σ = 1/2, S = 3/2 and m = 5/2 in the presence of a single-ion anisotropy are studied on the Bethe lattice within the framework of the exact recursion relations. Both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic exchange interactions are considered. The exact expressions for sublattice magnetizations and magnetic susceptibilities are obtained, and then thermal behaviors of the sublattice magnetizations, total magnetization, magnetic sublattice susceptibilities and total susceptibility are investigated. We find that the system only undergoes a second order phase transition for the different and same bilinear nearest-neighbor exchange interaction parameters, but displays compensation behaviors for only different bilinear interaction parameters. We also present the phase diagrams for the different and same bilinear nearest-neighbor exchange interaction parameters. A comparison is made with the other ternary system of the type ABC consisting of different spin values.     

Magnetic properties of <Superscript>3</Superscript>He on the recursive lattices

We considered the Heisenberg model on the recursive lattices with multi-spin interaction in a strong magnetic field as an approximation of the two-dimensional kagome lattice, as well as hexagonal recursive lattices as an approximation of triangular lattice, for solid ³He. In a strong magnetic field it is possible to approximate the Heisenberg model with the Izing one. Using dynamic approach, we obtain exact recursion relations for partition functions. Diagrams of the magnetization versus external magnetic field with different spin-exchange parameters and temperatures are presented. Magnetization plateaux, bifurcation points, and doublings are obtained.     

Conducting axisymmetric body in a coaxial varying magnetic field

We calculate the vector potential and magnetic field strength in an axisymmetric conductor introduced into a preset coaxial external magnetic field varying harmonically with time. The proposed method involves the representation of the vector potential as the sum of a converging series each term of which is a solution to the Helmholtz equation with constant coefficient at infinity. The next terms of each series are determined from the preceding terms using the known Green function. The adequacy of the numerical results is confirmed by their comparison with the exact values for a sphere in a uniform magnetic field and by comparison of the numerical results obtained using two different series for an ellipsoid in a nonuniform magnetic field.     

Quantum wire network with magnetic flux

The charge transport and the noise of a quantum wire network, made of three semi-infinite external leads attached to a ring crossed by a magnetic flux, are investigated. The system is driven away from equilibrium by connecting the external leads to heat reservoirs with different temperatures and/or chemical potentials. The properties of the exact scattering matrix of this configuration as a function of the momentum, the magnetic flux and the transmission along the ring are explored. We derive the conductance and the noise, describing in detail the role of the magnetic flux. In the case of weak coupling between the ring and the reservoirs, a resonant tunneling effect is observed. We also discover that a non-zero magnetic flux has a strong impact on the usual Johnson–Nyquist law for the pure thermal noise at small temperatures.

Generalized anisotropic scaling theory and the transverse meissner transition

We consider a depinning transition in vortex systems with columnar disorder and tilted applied magnetic fields. From scaling arguments and Monte Carlo simulations, we find that this transverse Meissner transition is governed by a fixed point which is anisotropic in all three directions. This generalization of conventional anisotropic scaling means that the correlation length in different directions diverges with different rates, and we derive exact results for the anisotropy exponents. We make predictions which can be tested in experiments on superconductors with columnar disorder.     

Vortex clusters in quantum dots

We study electronic structures of two-dimensional quantum dots in strong magnetic fields using mean-field density-functional theory and exact diagonalization. Our numerically accurate mean-field solutions show a reconstruction of the uniform-density electron droplet when the magnetic field flux quanta enter one by one the dot in stronger fields. These quanta correspond to repelling vortices forming polygonal clusters inside the dot. We find similar structures in the exact treatment of the problem by constructing a conditional operator for the analysis. We discuss important differences and limitations of the methods used.     

Temperature and magnetic field dependence of superconductivity in nanoscopic metallic grains

We study pairing correlations in ultrasmall superconductor in the nanoscopic limit by means of a toy model where electrons are confined in a single, multiply degenerate energy level. We solve the model exactly to investigate the temperature and magnetic field dependence of number parity effect (dependence of ground state energy on evenness or oddness of the number of electrons). We find a different parity effect parameter to critical temperature ratio (4 rather than 3.5) which turns out to be consistent with exact solution of the BCS gap equation for our model. This suggests the equivalence between the parity effect parameter and the superconducting gap. We also find that magnetic field is suppressed as temperature increases.     

Crossovers between superconducting symmetry classes

We study the average density of states in a small metallic grain coupled to two superconductors with the phase difference π, in a magnetic field. The spectrum of the low-energy excitations in the grain is described by the random matrix theory whose symmetry depends on the magnetic field strength and coupling to the superconductors. In the limiting cases, a pure superconducting symmetry class is realized. For intermediate magnetic fields or couplings to the superconductors, the system experiences a crossover between different symmetry classes. With the help of the supersymmetric σ-model we derive the exact expressions for the average density of states in the crossovers between the symmetry classes A-C and CI-C.     

“Aharonov-Bohm antiferromagnetism” and compensation points in the lattice of quantum rings

We investigate the magnetic properties of the lattice of non-interacting quantum rings using the 2D rotator model. The exact analytic expressions for the free energy as well as for the magnetization and magnetic susceptibility are found and analyzed. It is shown that such a system can be considered as a system with antiferromagnetic-like properties. We have shown also that all observable quantities in this case (free energy, entropy, magnetization) are periodic functions of the magnetic flux through the ring's area (as well known, such a behavior is typical for the Aharonov-Bohm effect). For the lattice of quantum rings with two different geometric parameters we investigate the ordinary compensation points (“temperature compensation points”, i.e. points at which the magnetization vanishes at fixed values of the magnetic field strength). It is shown that the positions of compensation points in the temperature scale are very sensitive to small changes in the magnetic field strength.     

Spectroscopic and magnetic mirages of impurities in nanoscopic systems

We present exact results for magnetic impurities in nanoscopic systems with focusing properties. We analyze the spectroscopic and magnetic properties of Kondo, intermediate valence, and magnetic impurities on a sphere with a metallic surface. Exact calculations show the occurrence of spectroscopic and magnetic mirages at the antipodes of the impurity location. Comparison with calculations performed using effective models validates previous calculations of spectroscopic mirages. Our results predict the existence of a strong magnetic mirage in the experimentally realizable elliptic corral.     

Two interacting spins in external fields. Four‐level systems

In the present article, we consider the so‐called two‐spin equation that describes four‐level quantum systems. Recently, these systems attract attention due to their relation to the problem of quantum computation. We study general properties of the two‐spin equation and show that the problem for certain external backgrounds can be identified with the problem of one spin in an appropriate background. This allows one to generate a number of exact solutions for two‐spin equations on the basis of already known exact solutions of the one‐spin equation. Besides, we present some exact solutions for the two‐spin equation with an external background different for each spin but having the same direction. We study the eigenvalue problem for a time‐independent spin interaction and a time‐independent external background. A possible analogue of the Rabi problem for the two‐spin equation is defined. We present its exact solution and demonstrate the existence of magnetic resonances in two specific frequencies, one of them coinciding with the Rabi frequency, and the other depending on the rotating field magnitude. The resonance that corresponds to the second frequency is suppressed with respect to the first one.     

Magnetoexcitons in unbalanced double layers

We study theoretically correlations of electrons and holes in unbalanced double-layer electronic systems in strong magnetic fields. Calculations are made using the exact diagonalization and the variational wave function. The ground state of an electron–hole pair in quantized cyclotron orbits possesses an in-plane electric dipole moment, when an electron and a hole are in different Landau orbits with different radii. The resulting attractive interactions between pairs creates the possibility of novel states.     

Exact partition function and boundary state of 2D massive Ising field theory with boundary magnetic field

We compute the exact partition function, the universal ground-state degeneracy and boundary state of the 2D Ising model with boundary magnetic field at off-critical temperatures. The model has a domain that exhibits states localized near the boundaries. We study this domain of boundary bound state and derive exact expressions for the “g function” and boundary state for all temperatures and boundary magnetic fields. In the massless limit we recover the boundary renormalization group flow between the conformally invariant free and fixed boundary conditions.

Exact results on random bond Ising Chains in magnetic fields

In this contribution we present exact results on the random bond Ising Chain in a magnetic field. The original problem is reduced to the solution of a functional equation for a certain probability distribution, which can be used to evaluate thermodynamics and correlation functions. We give a sufficiently accurate solution for low temperatures, which yields the complete low-temperature behaviour. Comparison is made with different Monte-Carlo-calculations performed on this system.Work supported in part by the Deutsche Forschungs-gemeinschaft     

Probing fermionic condensates by fast-sweep projection onto Feshbach molecules

Fast-sweep projection onto Feshbach molecules has been widely used as a probe of fermionic condensates. By determining the exact dynamics of a pair of atoms in time-varying magnetic fields, we calculate the number of condensed and noncondensed molecules created after fast magnetic field sweeps from the BCS to the Bose-Einstein condensate side of the resonances in 40K and 6Li, for different sweep rates and a range of initial and final fields. We discuss the relation between the initial fermionic condensate fraction and the molecular condensate fraction measured after the sweep.
