Solution of the Semi-Infinite Toda Lattice for Unbounded Sequences

The semi-infinite Toda lattice is the system of differential equations d _n (t)/dt = _n (t)(b _n+1(t) – b _n (t)), db _n (t)/dt = 2( _n ²(t) – _n–1 ²(t)), n = 1, 2, ..., t > 0. The solution of this system (if it exists) is a pair of real sequences _n (t), b _n (t) which satisfy the conditions _n (0) = _n ,, b _n (0) = b _n , where _n > 0 and b _n are given sequences of real numbers. It is well known that the system has a unique solution provided that both sequences _n and b _n are bounded. When at least one of the known sequences _n and b _n is unbounded, many difficulties arise and, to the best of our knowledge, there are few results concerning the solution of the system. In this letter we find a class of unbounded sequences _n and b _n such that the system has a unique solution. The results are illustrated with a typical example where the sequences _i (t), b _i (t), i = 1, 2, ... can be exactly determined. The connection of the Toda lattice with the semi-infinite differential-difference equation d²/dt ² log h _n = h _n+1 + h _n–1 – 2h _n , n = 1, 2, ... is also discussed and the above results are translated to analogous results for the last equation.     

Traces of Intertwiners for Quantum Groups and Difference Equations

In this Letter we study twisted traces of products of intertwining operators for quantum affine algebras. They are interesting special functions, depending on two weights ,, three scalar parameters q,,k, and spectral parameters z ₁,...,z _N , which may be regarded as q-analogs of conformal blocks of the Wess–Zumino–Witten model on an elliptic curve. It is expected that in the rank 1 case they essentially coincide with the elliptic hypergeometric functions defined by Felder and Varchenko. Our main result is that after a suitable renormalization the traces satisfy four systems of difference equations – the Macdonald–Ruijsenaars equation, the q-Knizhnik–Zamolodchikov–Bernard equation, and their dual versions. We also show that in the case when the twisting automorphism is trivial, the trace functions are symmetric under the permutation , k . Thus, our results generalize those of Etingof and Schiffmann, dealing with the case q=1, and Etingof, Varchenko, and Schiffmann, dealing with the finite-dimensional case.     

Equivalence Postulate and Quantum Origin of Gravitation

We suggest that quantum mechanics and gravity are intimately related. In particular, we investigate the quantum Hamilton–Jacobi equation in the case of two free particles and show that the quantum potential, which is attractive, may generate the gravitational potential. The investigation, related to the formulation of quantum mechanics based on the equivalence postulate, is based on the analysis of the reduced action. A consequence of this approach is that the quantum potential is always non-trivial even in the case of the free particle. It plays the role of intrinsic energy and may in fact be at the origin of fundamental interactions. We pursue this idea, by making a preliminary investigation of whether there exists a set of solutions for which the quantum potential can be expressed with a gravitational potential leading term which alone would remain in the limit 0. A number of questions are raised for further investigation.     

“神光-Ⅱ”装置倍频激光直接驱动冲击波平面性的实验研究

 设计了3套针对“神光-Ⅱ”倍频激光直接驱动的透镜阵列均匀辐照系统，并对冲击波的平面性进行了实验研究。结果表明，冲击波的平面性与透镜阵列参数、平面靶厚度、靶面位置等有关，采用列阵元数为121的透镜阵列进行激光束匀滑驱动的冲击波平面性最好，间接说明它在靶面的激光辐照是最均匀的；另外，随着靶厚的增加，冲击波平面性变差，平面区变小；而且冲击波平面性随靶面离焦位置的变化成一定的周期性变化，第2套透镜阵列焦点处的冲击波平面性最好。     

Nonlinear three-wave equation for a polydisperse gas-liquid mixture

A new nonlinear three-wave equation of the sixth order for pressure in a polydisperse gas-liquid mixture with bubbles of two sizes is obtained, and its stationary solutions are analyzed. The equation includes two nonlinear quadratic terms of different derivative orders. These terms are of fundamental importance for obtaining good correspondence between the solutions to this equation and the experimentally observed solitary waves in the form of two coupled solitons.
