View of bunching and antibunching from the standpoint of classical signals

The similarity between classical wave mechanics and quantum mechanics was noted in the works of De Broglie, Schr?dinger, ??late?? Einstein, Lamb, Lande, Mandel, Marshall, Santos, Boyer, and many others. We present a new wave model of quantum mechanics, the so-called prequantum classical statistical field theory, in which an analogy between some quantum phenomena and the classical theory of random fields is investigated. Quantum systems are interpreted as symbolic representations of such fields (not only for photons, cf. Lande and Lamb, but even for massive particles). All quantum averages and correlations (including composite systems in entangled states) can be represented as averages and correlations for classical random fields. We use the prequantum classical statistical field theory to obtain bunching and antibunching in the framework of classical signal theory. We note that antibunching at least is typically considered an essentially quantum (nonclassical) phenomenon.     

Quantum rule for detection probability from Brownian motion in the space of classical fields

We obtain Born’s rule from the classical theory of random waves in combination with the use of thresholdtype detectors. We consider a model of classical random waves interacting with classical detectors and reproducing Born’s rule. We do not discuss complicated interpretational problems of quantum foundations. The reader can select between the “weak interpretation,” the classical mathematical simulation of the quantum measurement process, and the “strong interpretation,” the classical wave model of the real quantum (in fact, subquantum) phenomena.     

Hua operator on vector bundle: Application to AdS/CFT correspondence of Dirac fields

Hua’s theory of harmonic functions on classical domains is generalized to the theory on holomorphic vector bundles over classical domains and further on vector bundles over the real classical domains and quaternion classical domains. In case of the simplest quaternion classical domain there is a relation between Hua operator and Dirac operator, by which an AdS/CFT correspondence of Dirac fields is established.     

Dynamical Locality of the Free Maxwell Field

The extent to which the non-interacting and source-free Maxwell field obeys the condition of dynamical locality is determined in various formulations. Starting from contractible globally hyperbolic spacetimes, we extend the classical field theory to globally hyperbolic spacetimes of arbitrary topology in two ways, obtaining a ‘universal’ theory and a ‘reduced’ theory of the classical free Maxwell field and their corresponding quantisations. We show that the classical and the quantised universal theory fail local covariance and dynamical locality owing to the possibility of having non-trivial radicals in the classical pre-symplectic spaces and non-trivial centres in the quantised *-algebras. The classical and the quantised reduced theory are both locally covariant and dynamically local, thus closing a gap in the discussion of dynamical locality and providing new examples relevant to the question of how theories should be formulated so as to describe the same physics in all spacetimes.     

Weighted covering numbers of convex sets

In this paper we define the notions of weighted covering number and weighted separation number for convex sets, and compare them to the classical covering and separation numbers. This sheds new light on the equivalence of classical covering and separation. We also provide a formula for computing these numbers via a limit of classical covering numbers in higher dimensions.

Classical limits of the SU(2)-invariant solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation

The possible classical limits of the SU(2)-invariant solution of the Yang-Baxter equation are systematically studied. In addition to the already known classical limits, namely the classical R-matrix, the lattice and the continuous L-operators, a series of new classical objects are introduced and the equations satisfied by them are enumerated.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Eigenvalues of Bethe vectors in the Gaudin model

According to the Feigin–Frenkel–Reshetikhin theorem, the eigenvalues of higher Gaudin Hamiltonians on Bethe vectors can be found using the center of an affine vertex algebra at the critical level. We recently calculated explicit Harish-Chandra images of the generators of the center in all classical types. Combining these results leads to explicit formulas for the eigenvalues of higher Gaudin Hamiltonians on Bethe vectors. The Harish-Chandra images can be interpreted as elements of classical W-algebras. By calculating classical limits of the corresponding screening operators, we elucidate a direct connection between the rings of q-characters and classical W-algebras.     

The Kurzweil-Henstock theory of stochastic integration

The Kurzweil-Henstock approach has been successful in giving an alternative definition to the classical It? integral, and a simpler and more direct proof of the It? Formula. The main advantage of this approach lies in its explicitness in defining the integral, thereby reducing the technicalities of the classical stochastic calculus. In this note, we give a unified theory of stochastic integration using the Kurzweil-Henstock approach, using the more general martingale as the integrator. We derive Henstock’s Lemmas, absolute continuity property of the primitive process, integrability of stochastic processes and convergence theorems for the Kurzweil-Henstock stochastic integrals. These properties are well-known in the classical (non-stochastic) integration theory but have not been explicitly derived in the classical stochastic integration.     

A Notion of Nonlocal Curvature

We consider a nonlocal (or fractional) curvature and we investigate similarities and differences with respect to the classical local case. In particular, we show that the nonlocal mean curvature can be seen as an average of suitable nonlocal directional curvatures and there is a natural asymptotic convergence to the classical case. Nevertheless, different from the classical cases, minimal and maximal nonlocal directional curvatures are not in general attained at perpendicular directions and, in fact, one can arbitrarily prescribe the set of extremal directions for nonlocal directional curvatures. Also the classical directional curvatures naturally enjoy some linear properties that are lost in the nonlocal framework. In this sense, nonlocal directional curvatures are somewhat intrinsically nonlinear.     

On Invariants of Virtual Links

We propose a new method of generalizing classical link invariants for the case of virtual links. In particular, we have generalized the knot quandle, the knot fundamental group, the Alexander module, and the coloring invariants. The virtual Alexander module leads to a definition of VA-polynomial that has no analogue in the classical case (i.e. vanishes on classical links).     

Characterizations of classical orthogonal polynomials on quadratic lattices

This paper is devoted to characterizations of classical orthogonal polynomials on quadratic lattices by using a matrix approach. In this form we recover the Hahn, Geronimus, Tricomi and Bochner type characterizations of classical orthogonal polynomials on quadratic lattices. Moreover a new matrix characterization of classical ortho-gonal polynomials in quadratic lattices is presented. From the Bochner type characterization we derive the three-term recurrence relation coefficients for these polynomials.     

On the λ-point for classical gases and superfluidity in nanotubes

We study situations in which problems regarded as quantum are, in fact, classical ones, i.e., the classical limit as h → 0 does not change them. Therefore, the corresponding results obtained earlier for the quantum case can be carried over to certain classical problems. This includes results for both quantum and classical gases and liquids. The phenomenon of superfluidity and λ-points for classical gases are studied without invoking complex germ theory.     

Evaluation of the mathematical and economic basis for conversion processes in the LEAP energy-economy model

An evaluation was made of the mathematical and economic basis for conversion processes in the LEAP energy-economy model. Conversion processes are the main modelling subunit in LEAP used to represent energy conversion industries and are supposedly based on the classical economic theory of the firm. The study arose out of questions about the uniqueness and existence of LEAP solutions and their relation to classical equilibrium economic theory. An analysis of classical theory and LEAP model equations was made to determine their exact relationship. The conclusions drawn from this analysis were that LEAP theory is not consistent with the classical theory of the firm. Specifically, the capacity for factor formalism used by LEAP does not support a classical interpretation in terms of a technological production function for energy conversion processes. The economic implications of this inconsistency are suboptimal process operation and short term negative profits in years where plant operation should be terminated. A new capacity factor formalism, which retains the behavioural features of the original model, is proposed to resolve these discrepancies.     

Compactly generated stacks: A Cartesian closed theory of topological stacks

A convenient bicategory of topological stacks is constructed which is both complete and Cartesian closed. This bicategory, called the bicategory of compactly generated stacks, is the analogue of classical topological stacks, but for a different Grothendieck topology. In fact, there is an equivalence of bicategories between compactly generated stacks and those classical topological stacks which admit locally compact Hausdorff atlases. Compactly generated stacks are also equivalent to a bicategory of topological groupoids and principal bundles, just as in the classical case. If a classical topological stack and a compactly generated stack have a presentation by the same topological groupoid, then they restrict to the same stack over locally compact Hausdorff spaces and are homotopy equivalent.     

On classical analogues of free entropy dimension

We define a classical probability analogue of Voiculescu's free entropy dimension that we shall call the classical probability entropy dimension of a probability measure on Rn. We show that the classical probability entropy dimension of a measure is related with diverse other notions of dimension. First, it can be viewed as a kind of fractal dimension. Second, if one extends Bochner's inequalities to a measure by requiring that microstates around this measure asymptotically satisfy the classical Bochner's inequalities, then we show that the classical probability entropy dimension controls the rate of increase of optimal constants in Bochner's inequality for a measure regularized by convolution with the Gaussian law as the regularization is removed. We introduce a free analogue of the Bochner inequality and study the related free entropy dimension quantity. We show that it is greater or equal to the non-microstates free entropy dimension.
