A q-boson representation of Zamolodchikov-Faddeev algebra for stochastic R matrix of $$\varvec{U_ q(A^{(1)}_n)}$$U q(An(1))

We construct a q-boson representation of the Zamolodchikov-Faddeev algebra whose structure function is given by the stochastic R matrix of \(U_q(A^{(1)}_n)\) introduced recently. The representation involves quantum dilogarithm type infinite products in the \(n(n-1)/2\)-fold tensor product of q-bosons. It leads to a matrix product formula of the stationary probabilities in the \(U_q(A_n^{(1)})\)-zero range process on a one-dimensional periodic lattice.     

An $${n = \left( {1,1} \right)}$$ Super-Toda Model Based on OSp $$1|{\kern 1pt} 4$$

We show that a Hamiltonian reduction of affine Lie superalgebras having bosonic simple roots (such as OSp ) does produce supersymmetric Toda models, with superconformal symmetry being nonlinearly realized for those fields of the Toda system which are related to the bosonic simple roots of the superalgebra. A fermionic b-c system of conformal spin is a natural ingredient of such models.     

Probing neutrino and Higgs sectors in $$\text{ SU(2) }_1 \times \text{ SU(2) }_2 \times \text{ U(1) }_Y $$ model with lepton-flavor non-universality

The neutrino and Higgs sectors in the \(\text{ SU(2) }_1 \times \text{ SU(2) }_2 \times \text{ U(1) }_Y \) model with lepton-flavor non-universality are discussed. We show that active neutrinos can get Majorana masses from radiative corrections, after adding only new singly charged Higgs bosons. The mechanism for the generation of neutrino masses is the same as in the Zee models. This also gives a hint to solving the dark matter problem based on similar ways discussed recently in many radiative neutrino mass models with dark matter. Except the active neutrinos, the appearance of singly charged Higgs bosons and dark matter does not affect significantly the physical spectrum of all particles in the original model. We indicate this point by investigating the Higgs sector in both cases before and after singly charged scalars are added into it. Many interesting properties of physical Higgs bosons, which were not shown previously, are explored. In particular, the mass matrices of charged and CP-odd Higgs fields are proportional to the coefficient of triple Higgs coupling \(\mu \). The mass eigenstates and eigenvalues in the CP-even Higgs sector are also presented. All couplings of the SM-like Higgs boson to normal fermions and gauge bosons are different from the SM predictions by a factor \(c_h\), which must satisfy the recent global fit of experimental data, namely \(0.995<|c_h|<1\). We have analyzed a more general diagonalization of gauge boson mass matrices, then we show that the ratio of the tangents of the W–\(W'\) and Z–\(Z'\) mixing angles is exactly the cosine of the Weinberg angle, implying that number of parameters is reduced by 1. Signals of new physics from decays of new heavy fermions and Higgs bosons at LHC and constraints of their masses are also discussed.     

Effect of tensile and compressive strain on the magnetic ordering of the ($$\hbox {LaMnO}_{3})_{1}/\hbox {(SrTiO}_{3})_{1}$$ superlattice

We study the effects of tensile and compressive strain on the \((\hbox {LaMnO}_{3})_{1}/(\hbox {SrTiO}_{3})_{1}\) superlattice from density functional theory using Quantum-Espresso open source code. In the unstrained superlattice, electron interactions in out-of-plane Mn–O–Ti chains are dominated by superexchange interactions, giving rise to ferromagnetic and half-metallic conducting characters. We found that the most stable magnetic configuration is G-type antiferromagnetic configuration for strong compressive strain and for strong tensile strain it is A-type antiferromagnetic configuration. The results are in accordance with the experimental observations which show that the superlattices can be grown on different substrates, and due to the difference in lattice parameters of the substrate and the main layer, there are also changes in the amount of strain applied to the superlattice.

Magnetic interactions and electronic structure of $$\hbox {Pt}_{2}\hbox {Mn}_{1-x}\hbox {Y}_{x} \hbox {Ga (Y = Cr and Fe)}$$ system: An ab-initio calculation

Structural, optical, electrical conductivity and dielectric relaxation properties of bulk 4-amino-3-mercapto-6-(2-(2-thienyl)vinyl)-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one donor (AMT) are studied. The structure of AMT in its powder form was analysed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). AC measurements (impedance, capacitance and phase angle) are done over the temperature range 303–373 K and in the frequency range from 42 Hz to 5 MHz. Analytical approaches for the experimental results of the σ _AC(ω, T) and the temperature behaviour of the frequency exponent show that the correlated barrier hopping (CBH) model is a good model to explain the AC electrical conductivity of bulk AMT organic semiconductor material. Application of the dielectric modulus formulism gives a simple method for evaluating the activation energy of the dielectric relaxation. The activation energy from the DC conductivity and the relaxation time are quite similar suggesting a hopping mechanism for AMT. The optical band gap of AMT is investigated using spectrophotometric measurement of transmittance at normal incidence of light in the wavelength range 300–1100 nm.     

$SU(3)_c\otimes SU(4)_{\mathrm {L}}\otimes U(1)_X$ model for three families

An extension of the standard model to the local gauge group as a three-family model is presented. The model does not contain exotic electric charges and we obtain a consistent mass spectrum by introducing an anomaly-free discrete Z₂ symmetry. The neutral currents coupled to all neutral vector bosons in the model are studied. By using experimental results from the CERN LEP, SLAC Linear Collider and atomic parity violation data we constrain the mixing angle between two of the neutral currents in the model and the mass of the additional neutral gauge bosons to be and TeV at C.L., respectively.Received: 7 February 2004, Published online: 5 May 2004
