Symmetry and Phase-Selected NMR Spectra of Liquid Crystalline Samples

It is demonstrated that the NMR spectra of liquid crystalline samples can be simplified by using multiple quantum filtering. In a system of N spin- nuclei, the N or (N-1)-multiple quantum filtered spectra (NQF or (N-1)QF) contain lines which originate only from transitions among the eigenstates belonging to the highest symmetry class of the spin permutation group. In addition the NQF spectra are divided further into two sets of lines which differ in phase by 180°. A method for simulating and analysing multiple quantum filtered spectra is described, with examples from molecules with up to eight interacting spins.

Selection Rules for Multiple Quantum NMR Excitation in Solids: Derivation from Time-Reversal Symmetry and Comparison with Simulations and C NMR Experiments

New derivations of selection rules for excitation and detection of multiple quantum coherences in coupled spin-1/2 systems are presented. The selection rules apply to experiments in which the effective coupling Hamiltonian used for multiple quantum excitation is both time-reversal invariant and time-reversible by a phase shift of the radiofrequency pulse sequence that generates the effective couplings. The selection rules are shown to be consequences of time-reversal invariance and time-reversibility and otherwise independent of the specific form of the effective coupling Hamiltonian. Numerical simulations of multiple quantum NMR signal amplitudes and experimental multiple quantum excitation spectra are presented for the case of a multiply ¹³C-labeled helical polypeptide. The simulations and experiments confirm the selection rules and demonstrate their impact on multiple quantum ¹³C NMR spectra in this biochemically relevant case.     

无直接耦合自旋之间的量子信息传递

核磁共振量子计算机在实现多量子位之间的信息传递时, 随着量子位的增多, 物理距离相距较远的量子位之间的耦合作用会很弱, 从而很难在没有耦合的量子位之间直接实现信息的传递. 然而根据量子超密编码原理和自旋交换操作, 可以在两个没有直接相互作用的自旋之间实现两位经典信息的传递. 根据量子超密编码和自旋交换操作的原理, 分析了无直接耦合自旋之间的量子信息传递的方法和过程, 并且在核磁共振模拟机和谱仪上实现.

Log Mirror Symmetry and Local Mirror Symmetry

We study Mirror Symmetry of log Calabi–Yau surfaces. On one hand, we consider the number of “affine lines” of each degree in ℙ²\B, where B is a smooth cubic. On the other hand, we consider coefficients of a certain expansion of a function obtained from the integrals of dx/x∧dy/y over 2-chains whose boundaries lie on B _φ, where {B _φ} is a family of smooth cubics. Then, for small degrees, they coincide. We discuss the relation between this phenomenon and local mirror symmetry for ℙ² in a Calabi–Yau 3-fold ([CKYZ]).

Symmetry of quasicrystals

The definition of an aperiodic crystal (quasicrystal) as a solid that is characterized by the forbidden symmetry suggests the existence of an unsolved problem, because, in a mutually exclusive manner, it appeals to the fundamental theorem of classical crystallography. Using the Penrose tiling as an example, we have investigated the symmetry properties of aperiodic tilings for the purpose to establish the allowed symmetry groups of quasicrystals. The filling of the Euclidean space according to an aperiodic law is considered as the action of an infinite number of group elements on a fundamental domain in the non-Euclidean space. It is concluded that all locally equivalent tilings have a common “parent” structure and, consequently, the same symmetry group. An idealized object, namely, an infinitely refined tiling, is introduced. It is shown that the symmetry operations of this object are operations of the similarity (rotational homothety). A positive answer is given to the question about a possible composition of operations of the similarity with different singular points. It is demonstrated that the transformations of orientation-preserving aperiodic crystals are isomorphic to a discrete subgroup of the Möbius group PSL(2, ?); i.e., they can be realized as discrete subgroups of the full group of motions in the Lobachevsky space. The problem of classification of the allowed types of aperiodic tilings is reduced to the procedure of enumeration of the aforementioned discrete subgroups.     

Quantification of Symmetry

Symmetry is conventionally described in a polarized manner that the system is either completely symmetric or completely asymmetric.Using group theoretical approach to overcome this dichotomous problem,we introduce the degree of symmetry(DoS) as a non-negative continuous number ranging from zero to unity.Do S is defined through an average of the fidelity deviations of Hamiltonian or quantum state over its transformation group G,and thus is computable by making use of the completeness relations of the irreducible representations of G.The monotonicity of Do S can effectively probe the extended group for accidental degeneracy while its multi-valued natures characterize some(spontaneous) symmetry breaking.     

Gauge Symmetry and Transverse Symmetry Transformations in Gauge Theories

The transverse symmetry transformations associated with the normal symmetry transformations are proposed to build the transverse constraints on the basic vertices in gauge theories. I show that, while the BRST symmetry in non-Abelian gauge theory QCD (Quantum Chromodynamics) leads to the Slavnov-Taylor identity for the quark-gluon vertex which constrains the longitudinal part of thevertex, the transverse symmetry transformation associated with the BRST symmetry enables to derive the transverse Slavnov-Taylor identity for the quark-gluon vertex, which constrains the transverse part of the quark-gluon vertex from the gauge symmetry of QCD.     

Nonlocalization of Nonlocal Symmetry and Symmetry Reductions of the Burgers Equation

Multiple Quantum NMR in One-Dimensional and Nano-Scale Systems: Theory and Computer Simulations

We investigate several exactly solvable models of multiple quantum (MQ) NMR dynamics. We study MQ NMR dynamics of one-dimensional systems (chains and rings) and nano-voids filled with spin-carrying atoms or molecules in a strong external magnetic field. Our focus is the problem of the profile of MQ NMR coherences (i.e., the dependence of the intensities of MQ NMR coherences on their orders). We find that integrable one-dimensional systems exhibit peculiar behavior that does not shed much light on a more generic situation. On the other hand, important lessons can be extracted from our solution for the nano-scale systems. We find that the profile of the intensities of the MQ NMR coherences is rather exponential than Gaussian as was proposed earlier. We also address the cluster growth in the course of the evolution of MQ NMR coherences.

Symmetry of Lyapunov spectrum

The symmetry of the spectrum of Lyapunov exponents provides a useful quantitative connection between properties of dynamical systems consisting ofN interacting particles coupled to a thermostat, and nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. We obtain here sufficient conditions for this symmetry and analyze the structure of 1/N corrections ignored in previous studies. The relation of the Lyapunov spectrum symmetry with some other symmetries of dynamical systems is discussed.
