Path integral representation of fractional harmonic oscillator

Fractional oscillator process can be obtained as the solution to the fractional Langevin equation. There exist two types of fractional oscillator processes, based on the choice of fractional integro-differential operators (namely Weyl and Riemann-Liouville). An operator identity for the fractional differential operators associated with the fractional oscillators is derived; it allows the solution of fractional Langevin equations to be obtained by simple inversion. The relationship between these two fractional oscillator processes is studied. The operator identity also plays an important role in the derivation of the path integral representation of the fractional oscillator processes. Relevant quantities such as two-point and n-point functions can be calculated from the generating functions.     

Path integral for a Dirac particle in a quantized plane wave field

The problem of a relativistic spinning particle interacting with a quantized electromagnetic plane wave is treated by employing path integral methods and introducing the notion of a coherent state action. The dynamics of the particle spin is described using the supersymmetric action proposed recently by Alexandrou et al. in the so-called global representation. It is shown that to obtain the relative causal Green function, two fermionic identities, related directly to the classical equations of motion, have to be incorporated. The Green function, as constructed, allows us to extract in a natural way the expressions of the corresponding energy spectrum and wave functions.

On the Dirac oscillator

In the present work we obtain a new representation for the Dirac oscillator based on the Clifford algebra C?₇. The symmetry breaking and the energy eigenvalues for our model of the Dirac oscillator are studied in the non-relativistic limit.     

Dirac oscillator in noncommutative space

We study the Dirac oscillator problem in the presence of the Aharonov-Bohm effect with the harmonic potential in commutative and noncommutative spaces in S = V and S =-V symmetry limits. We calculate exact energy levels and the corresponding eigenfunctions by the Nikiforov-Uvarov(NU) method and report the impact of the spin and the magnetic flux on the problem. Helpful numerical data is included.     

Intertwining technique for the one-dimensional stationary Dirac equation

The technique of differential intertwining operators (or Darboux transformation operators) is systematically applied to the one-dimensional Dirac equation. The following aspects are investigated: factorization of a polynomial of Dirac Hamiltonians, quadratic supersymmetry, closed extension of transformation operators, chains of transformations, and finally particular cases of pseudoscalar and scalar potentials. The method is widely illustrated by numerous examples.     

Wigner function for the Dirac oscillator in spinor space

The Wigner function for the Dirac oscillator in spinor space is studied in this paper. Firstly, since the Dirac equation is described as a matrix equation in phase space, it is necessary to define the Wigner function as a matrix function in spinor space. Secondly, the matrix form of the Wigner function is proven to support the Dirac equation. Thirdly, by solving the Dirac equation, energy levels and the Wigner function for the Dirac oscillator in spinor space are obtained.

Dirac oscillator in an external magnetic field

We show that (2+1)-dimensional Dirac oscillators in an external magnetic field is mapped onto the same with reduced angular frequency in absence of magnetic field. This can be used to study the atomic transitions in a radiation field. Relativistic Landau levels are constructed explicitly. Several interesting features of this system are discussed.     

Path integral for Koenigs spaces

I discuss a path-integral approach for the quantum motion on two-dimensional spaces according to Koenigs, for short “Koenigs spaces”. Their construction is simple: one takes a Hamiltonian from a two-dimensional flat space and divides it by a two-dimensional superintegrable potential. These superintegrable potentials are the isotropic singular oscillator, the Holt potential, and the Coulomb potential. In all cases, a nontrivial space of nonconstant curvature is generated. We can study free motion and the motion with an additional superintegrable potential. For possible bound-state solutions, we find in all three cases an equation of the eighth order in the energy E. The special cases of the Darboux spaces are easily recovered by choosing the parameters accordingly. The text was submitted by the authors in English.

Noncommutative Dirac oscillator in an external magnetic field

We show that (2+1)$(2+1)$-dimensional noncommutative Dirac oscillator in an external magnetic field is mapped onto the same but with reduced angular frequency in absence of magnetic field. We construct the relativistic Landau levels by solving corresponding Dirac equation in (2+1)$(2+1)$-dimensional noncommutative phase space. All the Landau levels become independent of noncommutative parameter for a critical value of the magnetic field. Several other interesting features along with the relevance of such models in the study of atomic transitions in a radiation field have been discussed.     

Barut equation for the particle-antiparticle system with a Dirac oscillator interaction

Barut showed us how it is possible to get a Poincaré invariant n-body equation with a single time. Starting from the Barut equation for n-free particles, we show how to generalize it when they interact through Dirac oscillators with different frequencies. We then particularize the problem to n=2 and consider the particle-antiparticle system whose frequencies are respectively and –. We indicate how the resulting equation can be solved by perturbation theory, though the spectrum and its comparison with that of the mesons will be given in another publication.Member of El Colegio Nacional and El Sistema Nacional de Investigadores.Fellow of El Sistema Nacional de Investigadores (México).     

Path integral methods for inelastic scattering

Corrections to the primitive semi-classical amplitude for multiple inelastic scattering are obtained from a path integral formulation of scattering theory. The path integrals are calculated by making an expansion about a classical orbit describing elastic scattering. Terms are collected to give a series in inverse powers of the reduced mass m of relative motion of the target and projectile. The leading term is the primitive semi-classical amplitude for multiple excitation and explicit formulae are given for the corrections of order $\text{1}\text{m}$. These are calculated in detail for a one-dimensional model. It is shown that some, but not all, of the corrections can be included by evaluating the primitive amplitude with a symmetrized orbit.     

Path integral solutions for non-Markovian processes

For a nonlinear stochastic flow driven by Markovian or non-Markovian colored noise (t) we present the path integral solution for the single-event probabilityp(x,t). The solution has the structure of a complex-valued double path integral. Explicit formulas for the action functional, i.e., the non-Markovian Onsager-Machlup functional, are derived for the case that (t) is characterized by a stationary Gaussian process. Moreover, we derive explicit results for (generalized) Poissonian colored shot noise (t). The use of the path integral solution is elucidated by a weak noise analysis of the WKB-type. As a simple application, we consider stochastic bistability driven by colored noise with an extremely long correlation time.     

Eigenvalues of one-dimensional non-self-adjoint Dirac operators and applications

We analyze eigenvalues emerging from thresholds of the essential spectrum of one-dimensional Dirac operators perturbed by complex and non-symmetric potentials. In the general non-self-adjoint setting, we establish the existence and asymptotics of weakly coupled eigenvalues and Lieb–Thirring inequalities. As physical applications, we investigate the damped wave equation and armchair graphene nanoribbons.     

Dirac bound states of anharmonic oscillator in external fields

We explore the effect of the external magnetic and Aharonov–Bohm (AB) flux fields on the energy levels of Dirac particle subjects to mixed scalar and vector anharmonic oscillator field in the two-dimensional (2D) space. We calculate the exact energy eigenvalues and the corresponding un-normalized two-spinor-components wave functions in terms of the chemical potential parameter, magnetic field strength, AB flux field and magnetic quantum number by using the Nikiforov–Uvarov (NU) method.
