Integrability and exact solution of correlated hopping multi-chain electron systems

Exact quantum integrability is established for a class of multi-chain electron models with correlated hopping and spin models with interchain interactions, by constructing the related Lax operators and R-matrices through twisting and gauge transformations. Exact solution of the eigenvalue problem for commuting conserved quantities of such systems is achieved through algebraic Bethe ansatz, on the examples of Hubbard and t–J models with correlated hopping. Our systematic construction identifies the integrable subclass of such known solvable models and also generates new systems including the generalized t–J models. At the same time it makes proper correction to a well known model and resolves recent controversies regarding the equivalence and solvability of some known models.     

Degenerate Sklyanin algebras

New trigonometric and rational solutions of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation (QYBE) are obtained by applying some singular gauge transformations to the known Belavin-Drinfeld elliptic R-matrix for sl(2;?). These solutions are shown to be related to the standard ones by the quasi-Hopf twist. We demonstrate that the quantum algebras arising from these new R-matrices can be obtained as special limits of the Sklyanin algebra. A representation for these algebras by the difference operators is found. The sl(N;?)-case is discussed.     

The Effects of Solution Transformations to the System with Color Parameters

The effects of solution transformations to the six-and eight-vertex systems are discussed.There are four Kinds of effects,the Hamiltonian of the system is invariant,Its coupling coefficients change,some additional terms appear in the Hamiltonian,and the spin of the system is rotated by some angle about z axis under these transformations.In all the cases,the systems are still integrable if they are so before the transformation.     

Some Schwarzschild solutions and their singularities

A number of different forms of the Schwarzschild solution are considered. The static forms all have a singularity at the Schwarzschild radius. This Schwarzschild singularity can be eliminated if one goes over to a stationary or time-dependent form of solution. However, the coordinate transformations needed for this have singularities. It is stressed that coordinate systems connected by singular transformations are not equivalent and the corresponding metrics may describe different physical situations.     

Diffuse ferroelectric phase transitions in cubically sabilized perovskites

Typical examples of ferroelectrics with diffuse phase transitions (relaxor ferroelectrics), like Pb(Mg_1/3Nb_2/3)O₃ are actually non transforming. The paraelectric phase is fully stablized against a ferroelectric phase transition in this case. A phase transition can be induced, however, by an electric field with appropriate orientation below the temperature of the dielectric constant maximum. The analogy with stress-induced martensitic phase transitions in metallic alloys is pointed out. Pecularities of the properties and of the polarization reversal of such systems are demonstrated. Actual diffuse ferroelectric phase transitions in disordered solid solutions and mixed compounds with a partially stabilized parent phase are compared with athermal martensitic transformations. With particular regard to technical ceramics based on PZT, the influence of interfaces between transformed regions and remnants of the parent phase which have to distinguished from domain walls, and of the reduced stability of the ferroelectric phase on the properties of these systems is discussed. Some effects usually explained solely by domain processes may be understood also from this point of view.

Stabilization of a parent phase against an order-disorder-type phase transition is supposed to be caused by glass-like freezing caused by inelastic cooperative interactions between disordered molecular groups.

Quantum gauge equivalence in QED

We discuss gauge transformations in QED coupled to a charged spinor field, and examine whether we can gauge-transform the entire formulation of the theory from one gauge to another, so that not only the gauge and spinor fields, but also the forms of the operator-valued Hamiltonians are transformed. The discussion includes the covariant gauge, in which the gauge condition and Gauss's law are not primary constraints on operator-valued quantities; it also includes the Coulomb gauge, and the spatial axial gauge, in which the constraints are imposed on operator-valued fields by applying the Dirac-Bergmann procedure. We show how to transform the covariant, Coulomb, and spatial axial gauges to what we call “common form,” in which all particle excitation modes have identical properties. We also show that, once that common form has been reached, QED in different gauges has a common time-evolution operator that defines time-translation for states that represent systems of electrons and photons. By combining gauge transformations with changes of representation from standard to common form, the entire apparatus of a gauge theory can be transformed from one gauge to another.     

Solutions of Two Kinds of Non-Isospectral Generalized Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation Related to Bose-Einstein Condensates

Two non-isospectral generalized nonlinear Schrodinger （ONLS） equations, which are two important models of nonlinear excitations of matter waves in Bose-Einstein condensates, are studied. Two novel transformations are constructed such that these two GNLS equations are transformed to the well-known nonlinear Schr6dinger （NLS） equation, which is an isospectral equation. Therefore, once one solution of the NLS equation is provided, we can immediately obtain one solution for two ONLS equations by these transformations. Thus it is unnecessary to solve these two non-isospectral GNLS equations directly. Soliton solutions and periodic solutions are obtained for them by two transformations from the corresponding solutions of the NLS equation, which are generated by Darboux transformation.     

Policy iteration optimal tracking control for chaotic systems by using an adaptive dynamic programming approach

A policy iteration algorithm of adaptive dynamic programming(ADP) is developed to solve the optimal tracking control for a class of discrete-time chaotic systems. By system transformations, the optimal tracking problem is transformed into an optimal regulation one. The policy iteration algorithm for discrete-time chaotic systems is first described. Then,the convergence and admissibility properties of the developed policy iteration algorithm are presented, which show that the transformed chaotic system can be stabilized under an arbitrary iterative control law and the iterative performance index function simultaneously converges to the optimum. By implementing the policy iteration algorithm via neural networks,the developed optimal tracking control scheme for chaotic systems is verified by a simulation.     

Instability of Non—Fermi Liquid Behavior in the Two—Channel Kondo Model

The effects of interchannel scattering of conduction electrons by the impurity and repulsion of conduction electrons at the impurity site on the two-channel Kondo model are simultaneously considered in this paper,It is shown that these two perturbations will substantially modify the usual local non-Fermi liquid behavior of the two-channel Kondo model.With bosonization and unitary transformations we find that the system can be transformed into a single channel Kondo model with anisotropy between longitudinal and transverse exchange couplings,Whatever for originally antiferromagnetic or ferromagnetic isotropic coupling,the system always flows to strong-coupling limit,which exhibits local Fermi liquid behavior at low temperatures.     

Effects of symmetry breaking in finite quantum systems

The review considers the peculiarities of symmetry breaking and symmetry transformations and the related physical effects in finite quantum systems. Some types of symmetry in finite systems can be broken only asymptotically. However, with a sufficiently large number of particles, crossover transitions become sharp, so that symmetry breaking happens similarly to that in macroscopic systems. This concerns, in particular, global gauge symmetry breaking, related to Bose–Einstein condensation and superconductivity, or isotropy breaking, related to the generation of quantum vortices, and the stratification in multicomponent mixtures. A special type of symmetry transformation, characteristic only for finite systems, is the change of shape symmetry. These phenomena are illustrated by the examples of several typical mesoscopic systems, such as trapped atoms, quantum dots, atomic nuclei, and metallic grains. The specific features of the review are: (i) the emphasis on the peculiarities of the symmetry breaking in finite mesoscopic systems; (ii) the analysis of common properties of physically different finite quantum systems; (iii) the manifestations of symmetry breaking in the spectra of collective excitations in finite quantum systems. The analysis of these features allows for the better understanding of the intimate relation between the type of symmetry and other physical properties of quantum systems. This also makes it possible to predict new effects by employing the analogies between finite quantum systems of different physical nature.     

Isoperiodic classical systems and their quantum counterparts

One-dimensional isoperiodic classical systems have been first analyzed by Abel. Abel’s characterization can be extended for singular potentials and potentials which are not defined on the whole real line. The standard shear equivalence of isoperiodic potentials can also be extended by using reflection and inversion transformations. We provide a full characterization of isoperiodic rational potentials showing that they are connected by translations, reflections or Joukowski transformations. Upon quantization many of these isoperiodic systems fail to exhibit identical quantum energy spectra. This anomaly occurs at order O(?²) because semiclassical corrections of energy levels of order O(?) are identical for all isoperiodic systems. We analyze families of systems where this quantum anomaly occurs and some special systems where the spectral identity is preserved by quantization. Conversely, we point out the existence of isospectral quantum systems which do not correspond to isoperiodic classical systems.     

Local Invariants for a Class of Tripartite Quantum Mixed States

We study the equivalence of tripartite mixed states under local unitary transformations. The nonlocal properties for a class of tripartite quantum states in ${\mathbb C}^K \otimes {\mathbb C}^M \otimes {\mathbb C}^N$ composite systems are investigated and a complete set of invariants under local unitary transformations for these states is presented. It is shown that two of these states are locally equivalent if and only if all these invariants have the same values.     

Relativistic approaches to investigation of few-nucleon systems

Theoretical approaches used in investigation of relativistic effects in high energy lepton and hadron collisions with few-nucleon systems are analyzed. The Bethe-Salpeter formalism for describing interacting systems of two spinor particles both in the continuum and bound state is described in detail. Special attention is paid to partial expansions, taking into account the analytic properties of Bethe-Salpeter amplitudes and unitary transformations correlating different representations of partial amplitudes. Mathematical methods of numerical solution of equations are considered. Results of calculation of relativistic corrections and effects of interaction in the final state in particular reactions with participation of the deuteron, namely, in elastic pD backward scattering and in reactions of deuteron break-up with production of correlated pairs, are presented.     

Exact Solutions of Non-autonomous Quantum Systems With Semisimple Lie Algebraic Structure

For quantum systems with semi-simple Lie algebraic structures,the exact solutions of the equations of motion are obtained by means of algebraic dynamics.The Hamiltonian is transformed into a linear function of Cartan operators by a set of gauge transformations. The coefficients of the gauge transformations are determined by a set of ordinary differential equations.From the inverses of these gauge transformations,the solutions of the Schrodinger equation,as well as a set of dynamic constants of motion (dynamic invariant operators) are obtained. An SU(3) model serves as an example.     

Affine R-Matrix and the Generalized Elliptic Ruijsenaars Models

Commutative elliptic difference operators associated with the affine root systems are constructed in terms of affine R-matrices. These operators describe the Ruijsenaars models with elliptic potentials and reduce to the Macdonald operators in the trigonometric limit.     

Electret effect and electrotransport in disperse organic and inorganic systems

The electret properties and electrotransport of venous human blood of various groups and a disperse system based on fine-grained mica are studied. General laws are revealed in the thermally stimulated current spectra of these inorganic and organic systems. The nature of the current peaks and their relation to the physicochemical transformations and the interphase interactions in these systems are discussed. A set of numerical parameters is obtained to describe the electrophysical state of the biological system; it can be used to diagnose the functional and biochemical states of this system.     

CO-ORDINATE TRANSFORMATIONS FOR SECOND ORDER SYSTEMS. PART II: ELEMENTARY STRUCTURE-PRESERVING TRANSFORMATIONS

It has been shown in a previous paper that there is a real-valued transformation from the generalN -degree-of-freedom second order system to a second order system characterized by diagonal matrices. An immediate extension of this fact is that for any second order system, there is a set of real-valued transformations (thestructure-preserving transformations) which transform this system to a different second order system having identical characteristic behaviour. There are several possible reasons why it may be very useful to achieve a particular structure in the transformed system. It is obvious that a diagonal structure is extremely useful and a method has been devised for determining the diagonalizing transformation from the solution of the usual (complex) eigenvalue-eigenvector problem.This paper begins by outlining the usefulness of some other structures. Then it defines a class of elementary structure-preserving co-ordinate transformations that transform from one N -degree-of-freedom second order system to another. The termelementary is applied because any one of these transformations is the minimum-rank modification of the identity transformation. The changes occurring in the system matrices as a result of the application of one such elementary transformation transpire to be very simple in form, they are low rank, and they can be computed very efficiently.This paper provides the fundamental tools to enable the design of structure-preserving co-ordinate transformations which transform a second order system originally characterized by three general matrices in stages into a mathematically similar second order system characterized by three diagonal matrices. The procedure by which the individual elementary transformations are obtained is still under development and it is not discussed in this paper. However, an illustration is given of a five-degree-of-freedom self-adjoint system being transformed into tridiagonal form.     

Dark Equations

Abstract

Observing the Universe, astronomers have concluded that the motion of stars can not be accounted for unless one assumes that most of the mass in the Universe is carried on by a “dark matter”, so far impervious to all attempts at being detected. There is now a similar concept of “dark energy”. I shall discuss a different subject, “dark equations”. These have never indicated that they influence anything or even exist, but if one supposes that they do exist, one can systematically discover them and study their properties, some of which turn out to be strange and others mysterious. These equations are similar in spirit to what one gets when linearizing a given system, or studies how an external linear wave interacts with a particular solution of a given system. We define and study linear extensions of dynamical systems in general, and integrable and Hamiltonian systems in particular. Systems discussed include the KdV and mKdV equations and the associated Miura maps, the Burgers hierarchy and the associated Hopf–Cole transformations, long wave equations, the Benney hierarchy, and the KP hierarchy.
