Wavelet Transform of Even- and Odd-Coherent States

By employing the technique of integral within an ordered product (IWOP) of operators we recast classical wavelet transform to a matrix element of the squeezing-displacing operator U(μ,s) between the mother wavelet vector 〈ψ| and the state vector |f〉 to be transformed, i.e., we propose that 〈ψ|U(μ,s)|f〉 can be considered as a new kind of spectrum for analyzing the quantum state |f〉. In this way we do numerical calculation of wavelet-transform spectrum for the even- and odd-coherent states and then plot their figures, respectively. Thus this kind of spectrum can be used to recognize a variety of quantum optical states.     

Complex Wavelet Transform of the Bell States

By employing the technique of an integral within an ordered product (IWOP) of operators we recast the complex wavelet transform to a matrix element of the two-mode squeezing-displacing operator U ₂(μ,σ) between the mother wavelet vector 〈ψ| and the two-mode quantum state vector |f〉 to be transformed, i.e., we propose that 〈ψ|U ₂(μ,σ)|f〉 can be considered as a new kind of spectra for analyzing |f〉, this may have some potential applications in quantum information and calculation. As an example, we numerically calculate wavelet-transform spectrum for the Bell states, which may play a role of distinguishing them one from another.     

Creating a monopole in 4D gauge theories

The problem of defining the second quantized monopole creation operator in non-Abelian gauge theories is discussed and exemplified by the (3 + 1)-dimensional Georgi-Glashow model. We construct the “coherent state” operator M(x) that creates the Coulomb magnetic field in terms of the Dirac singular electromagnetic potential. Our calculation of the vacuum expectation value of this operator 〈M(x)〉 in the confining phase indicates that it is free from the singularity along the Dirac string and in the leading order of perturbation theory the 〈M(x)〉 vanishes as a power of the volume of the system. This supports the conception that inclusion of the nonperturbative effects introduces an effective infrared cutoff on the calculation providing the finiteness of vacuum expectation value 〈M(x)〉. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Classical limit of relativistic quantal system with attractive Coulomb interaction

Using the appropriate harmonic oscillator states and reasonable approximations, we construct coherent wavepackets corresponding to the solutions of the Klein-Gordon equation for the attractive potentialV(r)=−k/r, k>0, in two and three space dimensions. We deduce the corresponding classical limit in two dimension by requiring that the expectation value 〈r〉 of the radial variable is large. In the case of three dimensions, besides the condition of large 〈r〉, we make the uncertainty Δr=[〈r ²〉 − 〈r〉²]^1/2 a minimum with respect to certain parameter of the wavepacket. We then investigate the trajectory traversed by the wavepacket in the classical limit. We find that the classical limit of this relativistic quantal problem gives, in the leading order, the same expression for the rate of motion of the perihelion as that given by the solution of the corresponding special relativistic classical dynamical problem. We also briefly discuss some of the subtle aspects of the classical limit of the relativistic quantal system, in general.     

Analytic Perturbation Theory for Bound States in the Transfer Matrix Spectrum of Weakly Correlated Lattice Ferromagnetic Spin Systems

We consider general d-dimensional lattice ferromagnetic spin systems with nearest neighbor interactions in the high temperature region (β≪1). Each model is characterized by a single site apriori spin distribution taken to be even. We also take the parameter α=〈s ⁴〉−3〈s ²〉²>0, i.e. in the region which we call Gaussian subjugation, where 〈s ^k 〉 denotes the kth moment of the apriori distribution. Associated with the model is a lattice quantum field theory known to contain a particle of asymptotic mass −lnβ and a bound state below the two-particle threshold. We develop a β analytic perturbation theory for the binding energy of this bound state. As a key ingredient in obtaining our result we show that the Fourier transform of the two-point function is a meromorphic function, with a simple pole, in a suitable complex spectral parameter and the coefficients of its Laurent expansion are analytic in β.     

Donors in a strong magnetic field and elastic magnetic-impurity resonance in diamondlike semiconductors

The possibility of resonance during elastic intravalley scattering in n-type semiconductors is investigated in connection with the crossing (due to anisotropy of the effective mass) of the energy levels of excited states of a shallow donor as functions of the magnetic field. The hybridization of states of different frequencies in the vicinity of a crossing is attributed to the emergence of a nonzero dipole moment of the excited impurity atom and, accordingly, a long-range potential, which creates carrier-transport anomalies. The lower part of the donor spectrum is calculated as a function of the magnetic field in Si with B∥〈001〉 and in Ge with B∥〈111〉 or B∥〈110〉. A crossing occurs in Ge in the field range 9.9 T<B<16.7 T and in Si in the field range 10.5 T<B<37.7 T. The characteristic longitudinal relaxation time and the transverse conductivity, which are determined by scattering at excited donors in the presence of the hybridization of states, are calculated.

Generalizations of Quantum Mechanics Induced by Classical Statistical Field Theory

No Heading We show that the Dirac-von Neumann formalism for quantum mechanics can be obtained as an approximation of classical statistical field theory. This approximation is based on the Taylor expansion (up to terms of the second order) of classical physical variables – maps f : Ω → R, where Ω is the infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. The space of classical statistical states consists of Gaussian measures ρ on Ω having zero mean value and dispersion σ²(ρ) ≈ h. This viewpoint to the conventional quantum formalism gives the possibility to create generalized quantum formalisms based on expansions of classical physical variables in the Taylor series up to terms of nth order and considering statistical states ρ having dispersion σ²(ρ) = hⁿ (for n = 2 we obtain the conventional quantum formalism).     

Λ and K s 0 production in pC collisions at 10 GeV/c

The experimental data from the 2-m propane bubble chamber have been analyzed for pC → Λ(K _s ⁰ )X reactions at 10 GeV/c. The estimation of experimental inclusive cross sections for Λ and K _s ⁰ production in the p ¹²C collision is equal to σ_Λ = (13.3 ± 1.7) mb and σ _{K s} ⁰ = (4.6 ± 0.6) mb, respectively. The measured 〈Λ〉/〈π⁺〉 ratio from pC reaction is equal to (5.3 ± 0.8) × 10⁻², and it is approximately two times larger than the 〈Λ〉/〈π⁺〉 ratio simulated by the FRITIOF model and than that of experimental pp reactions at the same energy. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Extremum uncertainty product and sum states

We consider the states with extremum products and sums of the uncertainties in non-commuting observables. These are illustrated by two specific examples of harmonic oscillator and the angular momentum states. It shows that the coherent states of the harmonic oscillator are characterized by the minimum uncertainty sum 〈(Δq)²〉 + 〈(Δp)²〉. The extremum values of the sums and products of the uncertainties of the components of the angular momentum are also obtained.     

Lattice mechanical properties of noble and transition metals

A model pseudopotential depending on an effective core radius but otherwise parameter free is used to study the interatomic interactions, phonon dispersion curves (inq and r-space analysis), phonon density of states, mode Grüneisen parameters, dynamical elastic constants (C ₁₁,C ₁₂ andC ₄₄), bulk modulus (B), shear modulus (C′), deviation from Cauchy relation (C ₁₂–C ₄₄), Poisson’s ratio (σ), Young’s modulus (Y), behavior of phonon frequencies in the elastic limit independent of the direction (Y ₁), limiting value in the [110] direction (Y ₂), degree of elastic anisotropy (A), maximum frequencyω _max, mean frequency 〈ω〉, 〈ω ²〉^1/2=(〈ω〉/〈ω ⁻¹〉)^1/2, fundamental frequency 〈ω ²〉, and propagation velocities of the elastic constants in Cu, Ag, Au, Ni, Pd, and Pt. The contribution of s-like electrons is calculated in the second-order perturbation theory for the model potential while that of d-like electrons is taken into account by introducing repulsive short-range Born-Mayer like term. Very recently proposed screening function due to Sarkar et al. has been used to obtain the screened form factor. The theoretical results are compared with experimental findings wherever possible. A good agreement between theoretical investigations and experimental findings has proved the ability of our model potential for predicting a large number of physical properties of transition metals.     

Quantum and Classical Disparity and Accord

Discrepancies and accords between quantum (QM) and classical mechanics (CM) related to expectation values and periods are generally found for both the harmonic oscillator (SHO) and a free particle in a box (FPB), which may apply generally. These indicate non-locality is expected throughout QM. The FPB energy states violate the Correspondence Principle. Previously unexpected accords are found and proven that 〈x ²〉 _CM =〈x ²〉 _QM and τ _CM =τ _QMb (beat period i.e. beats between the phases for adjoining energy states) for the SHO for all quantum numbers, n. However, for the FPB the beat periods differ at small n. It is shown that a particle’s velocity in an infinite square well varies, no matter how wide the box, nor how far the particle is from the walls. The quantum free particle variances share an indirect commonality with the Aharonov-Bohm and Aharonov-Casher effects in that there is a quantum action in the absence of a force. The concept of an “Expectation Value over a Partial Well Width” is introduced. This paper raises the question as to whether these inconsistencies are undetectable, or can be empirically ascertained. These inherent variances may need to be fixed, or nature is manifestly more non-classical than expected.     

Symmetry and optical properties of wurtzite nanostructures with the <Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis> axis in the layer plane

In wurtzite-based quantum wells and superlattices with the c axis parallel to the layer plane, this plane is parallel either to a symmetry plane of the wurtzite lattice (type I structures, the 〈110〉 growth direction) or to a glide plane containing the c axis (type II structures, the 〈100〉 growth direction). In both cases, the space symmetry of the structure depends on the parity of the number of monolayers within the slab(s). The point symmetry is C _2v except for the type II structures with odd monolayer number(s). The latter structures have the σ _v point symmetry and can have a built-in electric field. Quite different selection rules, depending on the structure symmetry, govern electron optical transitions and exciton radiative recombination.

The Landauer resistance of a one-dimensional metal with periodically spaced random impurities

We find the dependence of the ensemble-averaged resistance, 〈ρ _L〉, of a one-dimensional chain consisting of periodically spaced random delta-function potentials of the chain length L, the incident-electron energy, and the chain disorder parameter w. We show that generally the 〈ρ _L〉 vs L dependence can be written as a sum of three exponential functions, two of which tend to zero as L℩∞. Hence the asymptotic expression for 〈ρ _L〉 is always an exponential function of L. Such an expression for 〈ρ _L〉 means that the electronic states are indeed localized and makes it possible (which is important) to find the dependence of the localization radius on the incident-electron energy and the force with which an electron interacts with the sites of the chain. We also derive a recurrence representation for 〈ρ _L〉, which proves convenient in numerical calculations. Zh. éksp. Teor. Fiz. 111, 575–584 (February 1997)     

Local quantum statistics in arbitrary curved space-time

A local quantum statistics based on a finite temperature field theory in an arbitrary Riemann space-time is considered. The expressions have been derived for the partition functions, the grand thermodynamic potential and the particle distributions 〈n _k〉 of massive scalar gas and fermion gas in arbitrary space-time. It is shown that the chemical potential depends on the geometry of manifold.     

Tensor product composition of algebras in Bose and Fermi canonical formalism

We consider a graded algebra with two products (σ, α) over anε-factor commutation. One of the products (σ) isε-commutative, but, in general non-associative; and the other (α) is a graded Lieε-product and a gradedε-derivative with respect to the first (σ). Using the obvious mathematical condition, namely—the tensor product of two graded algebras with the sameε-factors is another with the sameε-factor, we determine the complete structure of a two-product (σ, α) graded algebra. When theε-factors are taken to be unity and the gradation structure is ignored, we recover the algebras of the physical variables of classical and quantum systems, considered by Grgin and Petersen. With the retention of the gradation structure and the possible choice of two ε-factors we recover the algebras of the canonical formalism of boson and fermion systems for the above classical and quantum theories. We also recover in this case the algebra of anticommutative classical systems considered by Martin along with its quantum analogue.     

Research on the Dynamic Problems of 3D Cross Coupling Quantum Harmonic Oscillator by Virtue of Intermediate Representation |<Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis>〉<Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">λ</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">ν</Emphasis></Subscript>

The intermediate representation (namely intermediate coordinate-momentum representation) |x〉 _λ,ν are introduced and employed to research the expression of the operator in intermediate representation |x〉 _λ,ν . The systematic Hamilton operator of 3D cross coupling quantum harmonic oscillator was diagonalized by virtue of quadratic form theory. The quantity of λ,ν,τand σ were figured out. The dynamic problems of 3D cross coupling quantum harmonic oscillator are researched by virtue of intermediate representation. The energy eigen-value and eigenwave function of 3D cross coupling quantum harmonic oscillator were obtained in intermediate representation. The importance of intermediate representation was discussed. The results show that the Radon transformation of Wigner operator is just the projectional operator |x〉 _{λ,ν λ,ν} 〈x|, and the Radon transformation of Wigner function is just a margin distribution.     

Orientation dependence of electrical properties of 0.96Na<Subscript>0.5</Subscript>Bi<Subscript>0.5</Subscript>TiO<Subscript>3</Subscript>-0.04BaTiO<Subscript>3</Subscript> lead-free piezoelectric single crystal

In this paper, a single crystal of 0.96Na_0.5Bi_0.5TiO₃-0.04BaTiO₃ with dimensions of Φ 30×10 mm was grown by the top-seeded-solution growth method. X-ray powder diffraction results show that the as-grown crystal possesses the rhombohedral perovskite-type structure. The dielectric, piezoelectric and electrical conductivity properties were systematically investigated with 〈001〉, 〈110〉 and 〈111〉 oriented crystal samples. The room-temperature dielectric constants for the 〈001〉, 〈110〉 and 〈111〉 oriented crystal samples are found to be 650, 740 and 400 at 1 kHz. The (T _m, ε _m) values of the dielectric temperature spectra are almost independent of the crystal orientations; they are (306°C, 3718), (305°C, 3613) and (307°C, 3600) at 1 kHz for the 〈001〉, 〈110〉 and 〈111〉 oriented crystal. The optimum poling conditions were obtained by investigating the piezoelectric constants d ₃₃ as a function of poling temperature and poling electric field. For the 〈001〉 and 〈110〉 crystal samples, the maximum d ₃₃ values of 146 and 117 pC/N are obtained when a poling electric field of 3.5 kV/mm and a poling temperature of 80°C were applied during the poling process. The as-grown 0.96Na_0.5Bi_0.5TiO₃-0.04BaTiO₃ crystal possesses a relatively large dc electrical conductivity, especially at higher temperature, having a value of 1.98×10⁻¹¹ Ω⁻¹⋅m⁻¹ and 3.95×10⁻⁹ Ω⁻¹⋅m⁻¹ at 25°C and 150°C for the 〈001〉 oriented crystal sample.     

Bell Inequalities as Constraints on Unmeasurable Correlations

The interpretation of the violation of Bell-Clauser-Horne inequalities is revisited, in relation with the notion of extension of QM predictions to unmeasurable correlations. Such extensions are compatible with QM predictions in many cases, in particular for observables with compatibility relations described by tree graphs. This implies classical representability of any set of correlations 〈A _i 〉, 〈B〉, 〈A _i B〉, and the equivalence of the Bell-Clauser-Horne inequalities to a non void intersection between the ranges of values for the unmeasurable correlation 〈A ₁ A ₂〉 associated to different choices for B. The same analysis applies to the Hardy model and to the “perfect correlations” discussed by Greenberger, Horne, Shimony and Zeilinger. In all the cases, the dependence of an unmeasurable correlation on a set of variables allowing for a classical representation is the only basis for arguments about violations of locality and causality.     

Overall values of conventional discrepancy indices for crystals with heavy atoms. Part II. Results for monoclinic and orthorhombic crystals when the heavy-atom part alone constitutes the model

Theoretical expressions of 〈y _N〉, 〈|y _N − σ₁ y _P ^c |〉 and 〈|y _N ² −σ ₁ ² (y _P ^c )²|〉 (wherey _N andy _P ^c are the normalized structure amplitudes of the structure and the model respectively) are derived in terms of the heavy atom contributionσ ₁ ² for monoclinic and orthorhombic crystals containing a few (i.e., 1 or 2) heavy atoms of the same kind per asymmetric unit by taking the heavy atom part alone as the model. Results are obtained for both the related and unrelated cases. The local values of 〈y _N〉 and 〈|y _N ⁿ − σ ₁ ⁿ (y _P ^c ) ⁿ |〉, (n=1, 2) calculated from these expressions can be used to calculate the overall values of the conventionalR-indicesR(F) andR(I) for the related and unrelated cases. These overall values could be used to check the correctness of heavy atoms located in the structure. Contribution No. 550     

Theory of melting,vacancy model

A theory of melting based on vacancy model is formulated. The polymer solution theory is used for derivation of the melting equation for a two-species model of melting solid. Under simplifying assumptions the analysis leads to a simple correlation betweenT _m and 〈v〉, the average energy of interaction between the vibrating atoms. Pseudopotential method is used for calculating 〈v〉 for the alkali metals lithium, sodium, potassium and rubidium at temperatureT _m. The calculated values ofT _m〈v〉 are in accord with those expected from our model. Application to the high pressure melting curves of solids is also discussed.
