On Solutions of Quantum Eigenvalue Problems: A Supersymmetric Approach

We study solutions of various quantum mechanical eigenvalue problems using the formalism of one dimensional supersymmetric quantum mechanics. The problems studied includes among other problems the non-polynomial oscillator and the doubly anharmonic oscillator potentials. The solutions obtained here are of two types — exact analytical solutions and approximate solutions. The method of obtaining exact solutions have been shown to be general enough to be applied to a large class of potentials. The method of obtaining approximate solutions have been studied in details and their accuracy have been compared with exact numerical results.     

A class of exact solutions for coupled electromagnetic and scalar fields for Einstein-Rosen metric. Part IA

In the previous work [1] we have obtained a class of exact solutions for the nonstatic cylindrically symmetric Einstein-Rosen metric in the presence of combined electromagnetic and zero-rest-mass scalar meson fields. But, these solutions are restricted because of assuming certain conditions on the scalar field. The present work deals with all the solutions obtained in the previous paper without any such restriction. The class of exact solutions obtained thus is more general than that given in [1].     

Traveling wave solutions of conformable time-fractional Zakharov–Kuznetsov and Zoomeron equations

To model physical phenomena more accurately, fractional order differential equations have been widely used. Investigating exact solutions of the fractional differential equations have become more important because of the applications in applied mathematics, mathematical physics, and other areas. In this work, by means of the trial solution method and complete discrimination system, exact traveling wave solutions of the conformable time-fractional Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation and conformable time-fractional Zoomeron equation have been obtained and also solutions have been illustrated. Finding exact solutions of these equations that are encountered in plasma physics, nonlinear optics, fluid mechanics, and laser physics can help to understand nature of the complex phenomena.     

Travelling Wave Solution of Korteweg-de Vries-Burger's Equation

An attempt has been made to obtain exact analytical travelling wave solution of Korteweg-de Vries-Burger's (KdVB) equation by the so-called tanh-method. This equation can be derived for dust ion acoustic shocks by using reduction perturbation method. It is found that an exact solution of the KdVB equation is obtained by tanh-method, provided the parameters involved satisfy a constraint relation. However a special exact analytical solution can be obtained where no such restriction is necessary. This solution has the structure of a shock wave. Numerical solution is also obtained for travelling wave with or without the assumption of the constraint relation. We have also found a singular solution in terms of cosech and coth functions.     

Relativistic solutions for diatomic molecules subject to pseudoharmonic oscillator in arbitrary dimensions

The exact solutions of the N-dimensional Klein-Gordon equation in the presence of an exactly solvable potential of V(r)=De(r/re-re/r)2 type have been obtained. The N dimensional Klein-Gordon equation has been reduced to a first-order differential equation via Laplace transformation. The exact bound state energy eigenvalues and corresponding wave functions for CH,H2,and HCl molecules interacting with pseudoharmonic oscillator potential in the arbitrary N dimensions have been determined. Bound state eigenfunctions used in applications related to molecular spectroscopy are obtained in terms of confluent hypergeometric functions.     

New exact travelling wave solutions for the Ostrovsky equation

In this Letter, auxiliary equation method is proposed for constructing more general exact solutions of nonlinear partial differential equation with the aid of symbolic computation. In order to illustrate the validity and the advantages of the method we choose the Ostrovsky equation. As a result, many new and more general exact solutions have been obtained for the equation.     

On solutions of the fifth-order dispersive equations with porous medium type non-linearity

In this work, we focus on obtaining the exact solutions of the fifth-order semi-linear and non-linear dispersive partial differential equations, which have the second-order diffusion-like (porous-type) non-linearity. The proposed equations were not studied in the literature in the sense of the exact solutions. We reveal solutions of the proposed equations using the classical Riccati equations method. The obtained exact solutions, which can play a key role to simulate non-linear waves in the medium with dispersion and diffusion, are illustrated and discussed in details.     

Power Series Expansion of Propagator for Path Integral and Its Applications

In this paper we obtain a propagator of path integral for a harmonic oscillator and a driven harmonic oscillator by using the power series expansion. It is shown that our result for the harmonic oscillator is more exact than the previous one obtained with other approximation methods. By using the same method, we obtain a propagator of path integral for the driven harmonic oscillator, which does not have any exact expansion. The more exact propagators may improve the path integral results for these systems.     

The effective conductivity of composite materials with cubic arrays of multi-coated spheres

Two premeditated resistor models have been developed and tested for the prediction of the effective thermal conductivity of a periodic array of multi-coated spheres embedded in a homogeneous matrix of unit conductivity. The results have been compared and evaluated with the exact solution, as obtained by extending a method originally devised by Zuzovski and Brenner. The results for the two models were found to yield bounds for the exact solution. For some situations, the model results match well with the exact solution, but in other cases the results for one of the models could deviate from the exact solution.

Single-photon emission computed tomography in a proportional scattering medium

The reconstruction of the spatial distribution of radiation sources in a proportional scattering medium has been considered. An exact solution of the inverse tomographic problem has been obtained by analytically solving the radiation transport equation for arbitrary distributions of radiation sources and extinction coefficient and exact boundary conditions. The type and scale of distortions associated with radiation scattering in tomographic reconstructions have been demonstrated.

Comparison of several equivalent local potentials for microscopic nonlocal Nα potentials

The phase shifts obtained in the Perey-Saxon, Horiuchi and Peierls-Vinh Mau approximations for the microscopic nonlocal Nα interaction of Lassaut and Vinh Mau have been compared at 10 and 20 MeV to the exact results, without the customary approximation of Perey and Buck, which neglects part of the angular dependence of the nonlocality and is inadequate. We have also compared the equivalent local potentials with the corresponding local wave functions and damping factors to their exact wronskian counterparts and obtained the corresponding nonlocal wave functions as a product of the approximate local wave function and the damping factor in all cases. The results show that of all the approximations the Peierls-Vinh Mau approximation is the most accurate one for s-waves and that the Perey-Saxon approximation is inadequate for Nα scattering. The accuracy of all the approximations is dependent on the degree of repulsiveness of the effective nuclear force. For the exact wronskian equivalent local potential and damping factor however, we reproduce the exact nonlocal wave function to high accuracy in all cases, confirming the accuracy of our numerical methods. The implications for nuclear reactions where the off-shell behaviour of the Nα interaction is important are discussed.

Exact Learning Augmented Naive Bayes Classifier

Earlier studies have shown that classification accuracies of Bayesian networks (BNs) obtained by maximizing the conditional log likelihood (CLL) of a class variable, given the feature variables, were higher than those obtained by maximizing the marginal likelihood (ML). However, differences between the performances of the two scores in the earlier studies may be attributed to the fact that they used approximate learning algorithms, not exact ones. This paper compares the classification accuracies of BNs with approximate learning using CLL to those with exact learning using ML. The results demonstrate that the classification accuracies of BNs obtained by maximizing the ML are higher than those obtained by maximizing the CLL for large data. However, the results also demonstrate that the classification accuracies of exact learning BNs using the ML are much worse than those of other methods when the sample size is small and the class variable has numerous parents. To resolve the problem, we propose an exact learning augmented naive Bayes classifier (ANB), which ensures a class variable with no parents. The proposed method is guaranteed to asymptotically estimate the identical class posterior to that of the exactly learned BN. Comparison experiments demonstrated the superior performance of the proposed method.

Exact solutions for bright and dark solitons in spatially inhomogeneous nonlinearity

We present exact analytical results for bright and dark solitons in a type of one-dimensional spatially inhomogeneous nonlinearity. We show that the competition between a homogeneous self-defocusing (SDF) nonlinearity and a localized self-focusing (SF) nonlinearity supports stable fundamental bright solitons. For a specific choice of the nonlinear parameters, exact analytical solutions for fundamental bright solitons have been obtained. By applying both variational approximation and Vakhitov-Kolokolov stability criterion, it is found that exact fundamental bright solitons are stable. Our analytical results are also confirmed numerically. Additionally, we show that a homogeneous SF nonlinearity modulated by a localized SF nonlinearity allows the existence of exact dark solitons, for certain special cases of nonlinear parameters. By making use of linear stability analysis and direct numerical simulation, it is found that these exact dark solitons are linearly unstable.
