Magnetic Field in a Screw Flow with Fluctuations

We consider the influence of fluctuations in a screw flow of a conducting liquid on the effect of magnetic field self-excitation; the solution of this problem is important for experimental realization of a turbulent dynamo. We propose a theoretical approach based on the solution of averaged equations obtained in the limit of a short correlation time. The applicability of this approach is confirmed by direct numerical simulation of the initial equations. We demonstrate the influence of the correlation of fluctuations on the dynamo effect threshold. It is shown that the solution of the mean-field equations differs from the solution based on direct numerical simulation for a finite correlation time. The advantages and disadvantages of the two approaches are estimates, as well as the importance of the discovered difference in the context of problems of magnetic field self-excitation. The influence of helicity and intermittency on the type of the solution is considered.

Non-gravitating scalar field in the FRW background

We study interacting scalar field theory non-minimally coupled to gravity in the FRW background. We show that for a specific choice of interaction terms, the energy–momentum tensor of the scalar field ϕ vanishes, and as a result the scalar field does not gravitate. The naive space dependent solution to equations of motion gives rise to singular field profile. We carefully analyze the energy–momentum tensor for such a solution and show that the singularity of the solution gives a subtle contribution to the energy–momentum tensor. The space dependent solution therefore is not non-gravitating. Our conclusion is applicable to other space–time dependent non-gravitating solutions as well. We study hybrid inflation scenario in this model when purely time dependent non-gravitating field is coupled to another scalar field χ.     

Asymptotic stability of stationary states in the wave equation coupled to a nonrelativistic particle

We consider the Hamiltonian system consisting of a scalar wave field and a single particle coupled in a translation invariant manner. The point particle is subjected to an external potential. The stationary solutions of the system are a Coulomb type wave field centered at those particle positions for which the external force vanishes. It is assumed that the charge density satisfies the Wiener condition, which is a version of the “Fermi Golden Rule.” We prove that in the large time approximation, any finite energy solution, with the initial state close to the some stable stationary solution, is a sum of this stationary solution and a dispersive wave which is a solution of the free wave equation.     

Shocks and finite-time singularities in Hele-Shaw flow

Hele-Shaw flow at vanishing surface tension is ill-defined. In finite time, the flow develops cusp-like singularities. We show that this ill-defined problem admits a weak dispersive solution when singularities give rise to a graph of shock waves propagating into the viscous fluid. The graph of shocks grows and branches. Velocity and pressure have finite discontinuities across the shock. We formulate a few simple physical principles which single out the dispersive solution and interpret shocks as lines of decompressed fluid. We also formulate the dispersive weak solution in algebro-geometrical terms as an evolution of the Krichever-Boutroux complex curve. We study in detail the most generic (2, 3)-cusp singularity, which gives rise to an elementary branching event. This solution is self-similar and expressed in terms of elliptic functions.     

Control systems with stochastic feedback

In this paper we use the analogy of Parrondo's games to design a second order switched mode circuit which is unstable in either mode but is stable when switched. We do not require any sophisticated control law. The circuit is stable, even if it is switched at random. We use a stochastic form of Lyapunov's second method to prove that the randomly switched system is stable with probability of one. Simulations show that the solution to the randomly switched system is very similar to the analytic solution for the time-averaged system. This is consistent with the standard techniques for switched state-space systems with periodic switching. We perform state-space simulations of our system, with a randomized discrete-time switching policy. We also examine the case where the control variable, the loop gain, is a continuous Gaussian random variable. This gives rise to a matrix stochastic differential equation (SDE). We know that, for a one-dimensional SDE, the difference between solution for the time averaged system and any given sample path for the SDE will be an appropriately scaled and conditioned version of Brownian motion. The simulations show that this is approximately true for the matrix SDE. We examine some numerical solutions to the matrix SDE in the time and frequency domains, for the case where the noise power is very small. We also perform some simulations, without analysis, for the same system with large amounts of noise. In this case, the solution is significantly shifted away from the solution for the time-averaged system. The Brownian motion terms dominate all other aspects of the solution. This gives rise to very erratic and "bursty" behavior. The stored energy in the system takes the form a logarithmic random walk. The simulations of our curious circuit suggest that it is possible to implement a control algorithm that actively uses noise, although too much noise eventually makes the system unusable.

Analytic solution for a static black hole in the RSII model

We present here a static solution for a large black hole (whose horizon radius is larger than the AdS radius) located on the brane in RSII model. According to some arguments based on the AdS/CFT conjecture, a solution for the black hole located on the brane in RSII model must encode quantum gravitational effects and therefore cannot be static. We demonstrated that a static solution can be found if the bulk is not empty. The stress energy tensor of the matter distribution in the bulk for the solution we found is physical (i.e. it is non-singular with the energy density and pressure not violating any energy conditions). The scale of the solution is given by a parameter “a”. For large values of the parameter “a” we have a limit of an almost empty AdS bulk. It is interesting that the solution cannot be transformed into the Schwarzschild-like form and does not reduce to the Schwarzschild solution on the brane. We also present two other related static solutions. At the end, we discuss why the numerical methods failed so far in finding static solutions in this context, including the solutions we found analytically here.     

Traffic Flow Models Considering an Internal Degree of Freedom

We solve numerically the integrodifferential equation for the equilibrium case of Paveri–Fontana's Boltzmann-like traffic equation. Beside space and actual velocity, Paveri–Fontana used an additional phase space variable, the desired velocity, to distinguish between the various driver characters. We refine his kinetic equation by introducing a modified cross section in order to incorporate finite vehicle length. We then calculate from the equilibrium solution the mean-velocity–density relation and investigate its dependence on the imposed desired velocity distribution. A further modification is made by modeling the interaction as an imperfect showing-down process. We find that the velocity cumulants of the stationary homogeneous solution essentially only depend on the first two cumulants, but not on the exact shape of the imposed desired velocity distribution. The equilibrium solution can therefore be approximated by a bivariate Gaussian distribution which is in agreement with empirical velocity distributions. From the improved kinetic equation we then derive a macroscopic model by neglecting third and higher order cumulants. The equilibrium solution of the macroscopic model is compared with the cumulants of the kinetic equilibrium solution and shows good agreement, thus justifying the closure assumption.     

Exact magnetic monopole solutions in Yang-Mills and unified gauge theories

We study the magnetic monopoles in non-Abelian gauge theories. The exact static, spherically symmetric solutions of the magnetic monopoles in both Yang-Mills and unified gauge theories are obtained. The energyE of the static system is calculable and it is either zero or infinite. The existence of the magnetic monopole solution is a consequence of symmetry rather than dynamics. We propose a new definition of the electromagnetic field tensor, which relates the static solution of gauge fields and the magnetic monopole solution. Experimental implications are discussed.

Nonlinear Maxwell Equations in Inhomogeneous Media

We study the basic properties of the Maxwell equations for nonlinear inhomogeneous media. Assuming the classical nonlinear optics representation for the nonlinear polarization as a power series, we show that the solution exists and is unique in an appropriate space if the excitation current is not too large. The solution to the nonlinear Maxwell equations is represented as a power series in terms of the solution of the corresponding linear Maxwell equations. This representation holds at least for the time period inversely proportional to the appropriate norm of the solution to the linear Maxwell equation. We derive recursive formulas for the terms of the power series for the solution including an explicit formula for the first significant term attributed to the nonlinearity.     

Black holes coupled to scalar fields in higher-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory

We derive in this paper an exact spherically symmetric solution coupled to scalar fields inn-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory. A seven-dimensional solution is shown as a special case of the general solution. The solution has two even horizons. The inner horizon corresponds to the Schwarzschild black hole and the outer horizon is due to the scalar fields.
