Nonideal Bose Gases: Correlation Inequalities and Bose Condensation

We consider two simple model systems describing effective repulsion in a nonideal Bose gas. The interaction Hamiltonians in these systems can be analytically represented as functions of the occupation number operators for modes with nonzero momenta (p0). One of these models contains an interaction term corresponding to repulsion of bosons with the mode p=0 and ensuring the thermodynamic superstability of the system; the other model does not contain such a term. We use the Bogoliubov–Dirac–Ginibre approximation and the method of correlation inequalities to prove that a Bose condensate can exist in these model systems. Because of the character of interaction, the condensate can be formed in the superstable case for any values of the spatial dimensions, temperature, and positive chemical potentials.     

Stability of a Special Class of $$q_{ij}$$ -CCR and Extensions of Higher-Dimensional Noncommutative Tori

The -algebras A_{{q i}}, generated by generalised quon commutation relations are considered. The nuclearity of these algebras is proved. It is shown that A_{{q i}}, is isomorphic to the extension of a higher-dimensional noncommutative torus. Irreducible representations of A_{{q i}}, are considered. It is shown that the Fock representation is faithful.     

Boson fock representations of stochastic processes

A classification theory of quantum stationary processes similar to the corresponding theory for classical stationary processes is presented. Our main result is the classification of those pairs of classical stationary processes that admit a joint boson Fock canonical representation.

Asymptotic regularity of solutions to Hartree–Fock equations with Coulomb potential

We study the asymptotic regularity of solutions to Hartree–Fock (HF) equations for Coulomb systems. To deal with singular Coulomb potentials, Fock operators are discussed within the calculus of pseudo‐differential operators on conical manifolds. First, the non‐self‐consistent‐field case is considered, which means that the functions that enter into the nonlinear terms are not the eigenfunctions of the Fock operator itself. We introduce asymptotic regularity conditions on the functions that build up the Fock operator, which guarantee ellipticity for the local part of the Fock operator on the open stretched cone ?₊ × S². This proves the existence of a parametrix with a corresponding smoothing remainder from which it follows, via a bootstrap argument, that the eigenfunctions of the Fock operator again satisfy asymptotic regularity conditions. Using a fixed‐point approach based on Cancès and Le Bris analysis of the level‐shifting algorithm, we show via another bootstrap argument that the corresponding self‐consistent‐field solutions to the HF equation have the same type of asymptotic regularity.

Impurity effects of the Λhyperon in the hypernuclear systems ${}_{{\rm{\Lambda }}}^{25}\mathrm{Mg}$ and ${}_{{\rm{\Lambda }}}^{29}\mathrm{Si}$

Based on the beyond-mean-field Skyrme–Hartree–Fock model, impurity effects of the Λhyperon in the hypernuclear systems ${}_{\,{\rm{\Lambda }}}^{25}$ Mg and ${}_{\,{\rm{\Lambda }}}^{29}$ Si are investigated, respectively. Four cases, in which the Λhyperon occupies the single-particle orbitals ${\rm{\Lambda }}$[000]${\tfrac{1}{2}}^{+}$, ${\rm{\Lambda }}$[110]${\tfrac{1}{2}}^{-}$, ${\rm{\Lambda }}$[101]${\tfrac{3}{2}}^{-}$ and ${\rm{\Lambda }}$[101]${\tfrac{1}{2}}^{-}$, are focused. In each case, the potential energy surface and the energy curves projected on certain angular momenta are employed to show the influence of the Λhyperon on the nuclear core. Beside the shrinkage effect that is induced by the Λhyperon occupying the s_Λ orbital, it is found that the Λhyperon on the p_Λ orbital, ${\rm{\Lambda }}$[110]${\tfrac{1}{2}}^{-}$, drives the nuclear core toward a prolate shape, while the ones on the other two p_Λ orbitals, ${\rm{\Lambda }}$[101]${\tfrac{3}{2}}^{-}$ and ${\rm{\Lambda }}$[101]${\tfrac{1}{2}}^{-}$, drive the nuclear core toward an oblate shape. The energy spectra and the corresponding intra-band E2 transition rates for the rotational bands are given as a prediction for future experiments.     

Quantum interference between a single-photon Fock state and a coherent state

We derive analytical expressions for the single mode quantum field state at the individual output ports of a beam splitter when a single-photon Fock state and a coherent state are incident on the input ports. The output states turn out to be a statistical mixture between a displaced Fock state and a coherent state. Consequently we are able to find an analytical expression for the corresponding Wigner function. Because of the generality of our calculations the obtained results are valid for all passive and lossless optical four port devices. We show further how the results can be adapted to the case of the Mach-Zehnder interferometer. In addition we consider the case for which the single-photon Fock state is replaced with a general input state: a coherent input state displaces each general quantum state at the output port of a beam splitter with the displacement parameter being the amplitude of the coherent state.     

Positivity of Fock Toeplitz Operators via the Berezin Transform

This paper deals with the relationship between the positivity of the Fock Toeplitz operators and their Berezin transforms. The author considers the special case of the bounded radial function φ(z) = a + be~(-α|z|~2)+ ce~(-β|z|~2), where a, b, c are real numbers and α, β are positive numbers. For this type of φ, one can choose these parameters such that the Berezin transform of φ is a nonnegative function on the complex plane, but the corresponding Toeplitz operator Tφ is not positive on the Fock space.
