Generalized <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-coupled maps with invariant measure in Bose-Mesner algebra perspective

By choosing a dynamical system with d different couplings, one can rearrange a system based on the graph with a given vertex dependent on the dynamical system elements. The relation between the dynamical elements (coupling) is replaced by a relation between the vertexes. Based on the E ₀ transverse projection operator, we addressed synchronization problem of an array of the linearly coupled map lattices of identical discrete time systems. The synchronization rate is determined by the second largest eigenvalue of the transition probability matrix. Algebraic properties of the Bose-Mesner algebra with an associated scheme with definite spectrum has been used in order to study the stability of the coupled map lattice. Associated schemes play a key role and may lead to analytical methods in studying the stability of the dynamical systems. The relation between the coupling parameters and the chaotic region is presented. It is shown that the feasible region is analytically determined by the number of couplings (i.e. by increasing the number of coupled maps, the feasible region is restricted). It is very easy to apply our criteria to the system being studied and they encompass a wide range of coupling schemes including most of the popularly used ones in the literature.      

The dynamics of coupled nonlinear model Boltzmann equations

A multispecies gas described by coupled nonlinear Boltzmann equations is studied as a dynamical system. Properties are determined of theN coupled nonlinear ODEs for the number densities obtained from the Boltzmann equations for the spatially uniform system ofN species undergoing binary scattering, removal, and regeneration in the presence of an external force field and a reservoir of background gas. The physically realizable setQ, the nonnegative cone in theN-dimensional phase space of species number densities, is established as invariant under the flow. The fixed-point equations for the ODEs are shown to be equivalent to 2 ^N linear systems, and conditions for the stability and instability of the fixed points are then established. Stable fixed points are demonstrated to exist inQ by showing that they enter via a sequence of transcritical bifurcations as physical parameters are varied. For the two-species case the typical global structure of the solutions is established. Various particular cases are described including one which possesses an infinite family of periodic solutions and one that depends delicately upon initial conditions due to a separatrix that separatesQ into two invariant sets.     

HOW TO EXTEND ANY DYNAMICAL SYSTEM SO THAT IT BECOMES ISOCHRONOUS,ASYMPTOTICALLY ISOCHRONOUS OR MULTI-PERIODIC

We indicate how one can extend any dynamical system (namely, any system of nonlinearly coupled autonomous ordinary differential equations) so that the extended dynamical system thereby obtained is either isochronous or asymptotically isochronous or multi-periodic, namely its generic solutions are either completely periodic with a fixed period or tend asymptotically, in the remote future, to such completely periodic functions or are multi-periodic (or become multi-periodic only asymptotically, in the remote future). In all cases the scale of the periodicity can be arbitrarily assigned. Moreover, the solutions of the extended systems are generally well approximated by those of the original, unmodified, systems, up to a constant rescaling of the independent variable (time), as long as their evolution is considered over time intervals short with respect to the (arbitrarily assigned) periodicities characterizing the extended systems. Several examples are displayed. In some cases the general solution of these dynamical systems is also exhibited; in others, this is impossible inasmuch as the models being manufactured are extensions of dynamical systems displaying chaotic evolutions, such as, for instance, the well-known Lorenz model of 3 nonlinearly coupled ODEs.     

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.     

Duality relations for asymmetric exclusion processes

We derive duality relations for a class ofU _q [SU(2)]-symmetric stochastic processes, including among others the asymmetric exclusion process in one dimension. Like the known duality relations for symmetric hopping processes, these relations express certainm-point correlation functions inN-particle systems (Nm) in terms of sums of correlation functions of the same system but with onlym particles. For the totally asymmetric case we obtain exact expressions for some boundary density correlation functions. The dynamical exponent for these correlators isz=2, which is different from the dynamical exponent for bulk density correlations, which is known to bez=3/2.     

Binary nonlinearization of the super classical-Boussinesq hierarchy

The symmetry constraint and binary nonlinearization of Lax pairs for the super classical-Boussinesq hierarchy is obtained.Under the obtained symmetry constraint,the n-th flow of the super classical-Boussinesq hierarchy is decomposed into two super finite-dimensional integrable Hamiltonian systems,defined over the super-symmetry manifold with the corresponding dynamical variables x and t n.The integrals of motion required for Liouville integrability are explicitly given.     

Theory of tensor invariants of integrable Hamiltonian systems. I. Incompatible Poisson structures

This paper develops a new theory of tensor invariants of a completely integrable non-degenerate Hamiltonian system on a smooth manifoldM ⁿ. The central objects in this theory are supplementary invariant Poisson structuresP _c which are incompatable with the original Poisson structureP ₁ for this Hamiltonian system. A complete classification of invariant Poisson structures is derived in a neighbourhood of an invariant toroidal domain. This classification resolves the well-known Inverse Problem that was brought into prominence by Magri's 1978 paper deveoted to the theory of compatible Poisson structures. Applications connected with the KAM theory, with the Kepler problem, with the basic integrable problem of celestial mechanics, and with the harmonic oscillator are pointed out. A cohomology is defined for dynamical systems on smooth manifolds. The physically motivated concepts of dynamical compatibility and strong dynamical compatibility of pairs of Poisson structures are introduced to study the diversity of pairs of Poisson structures incompatible in Magri's sense. It is proved that if a dynamical systemV preserves two strongly dynamically compatible Poisson structuresP ₁ andP ₂ in a general position then this system is completely integrable. Such a systemV generates a hierarchy of integrable dynamical systems which in general are not Hamiltonian neither with respect toP ₁ nor with respect toP ₂. Necessary conditions for dynamical compatibility and for strong dynamical compatibility are derived which connect these global properties with new local invariants of an arbitrary pair of incompatible Poisson structures.Supported by NSERC grant OGPIN 337.     

TWO NEW SOLVABLE DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS OF GOLDFISH TYPE

Two new solvable dynamical systems of goldfish type are identified, as well as their isochronous variants. The equilibrium configurations of these isochronous variants are simply related to the zeros of appropriate Laguerre and Jacobi polynomials.     

General SU(2)L × SU(2)R × U(1)EM Sigma Model with External Sources, Dynamical Breaking and Spontaneous Vacuum Symmetry Breaking

We give a general SU(2) _L × SU(2) _R × U(1) _EM sigma model with external sources, dynamical breaking and spontaneous vacuum symmetry breaking, and present the general formulation of the model. It is found that σ and π⁰ without electric charges have electromagnetic interaction effects coming from their internal structures. A general Lorentz transformation relative to external sources is derived, using the general Lorentz transformation and the four-dimensional current of nuclear matter of the ground state with J _gauge = 0, we give the four-dimensional general relations between the different currents of nuclear matter systems with J _gauge≠ 0 and those with J _gauge = 0. The relation of the density’s coupling with external magnetic field is derived, which conforms well to dense nuclear matter in a strong magnetic field. We show different condensed effects in strong interaction about fermions and antifermions, and give the concrete scalar and pseudoscalar condensed expressions of σ₀ and π₀ bosons. About different dynamical breaking and spontaneous vacuum symmetry breaking, the concrete expressions of different mass spectra are obtained in field theory. This paper acquires the running spontaneous vacuum breaking value σ′₀, and obtains the spontaneous vacuum breaking in terms of the running σ′₀, which make nucleon, σ and π particles gain effective masses. We achieve both the effect of external sources and nonvanishing value of the condensed scalar and pseudoscalar paticles. It is deduced that the masses of nucleons, σ and π generally depend on different external sources. PACA numbers: 24.10.-i, 11.30.Qc     

First-principles study of structural,mechanical, lattice dynamical and thermal properties of nodal-line semimetals ZrXY (X=Si,Ge; Y=S,Se)

Abstract

The nodal-line semimetals are new and very promising materials for technological applications. To understand their structural, mechanical, lattice dynamical and thermal properties in detail, we have investigated theoretical study of ZrXY (X = Si,Ge; Y = S,Se) using Density Functional Theory for the first time. Obtained lattice parameters are in excellent agreement with previous experimental data. These nodal-line semimetals obey the mechanical stability conditions for tetragonal structure. We obtain Bulk modulus, Shear modulus, Poisson’s ratio, Pugh ratio, sound velocities and thermal conductivity using elastic constant. All the materials behave in brittle manner. Poisson’s ratio data and Bader charge analysis results indicate that the ionic bonding characters are dominant. Next, the lattice dynamical properties are calculated. Phonon density of states shows that nodal-line semimetals ZrXY are also dynamically stable in the tetragonal structure. Raman and IR active phonon modes are determined. Highest optical mode at gamma point corresponds to A_2u (IR active) and E_g (Raman active) modes for ZrXSe and ZrXS, respectively. Based on phonon density of states, thermal properties such as Helmholtz free energy, entropy, heat capacity at constant volume and Debye temperature are also presented and discussed.     

Embedding of Dynamical Symmetry Groups U(1, 1) and U(2) of a Free Particle on AdS 2 and S 2 into Parasupersymmetry Algebra

Using two different types of the laddering equations realized simultaneously by the associated Gegenbauer functions, we show that all quantum states corresponding to the motion of a free particle on AdS ₂ and S ² are splitted into infinite direct sums of infinite-and finite-dimensional Hilbert subspaces which represent Lie algebras u(1, 1) and u(2) with infinite- and finite-fold degeneracies, respectively. In addition, it is shown that the representation bases of Lie algebras with rank 1, i.e., gl(2, C), realize the representation of nonunitary parasupersymmetry algebra of arbitrary order. The realization of the representation of parasupersymmetry algebra by the Hilbert subspaces which describe the motion of a free particle on AdS ₂ and S ² with the dynamical symmetry groups U(1, 1) and U(2) are concluded as well.     

Bifurcation and chaos in simple jerk dynamical systems

In recent years, it is observed that the third-order explicit autonomous differential equation, named as jerk equation, represents an interesting sub-class of dynamical systems that can exhibit many major features of the regular and chaotic motion. In this paper, we investigate the global dynamics of a special family of jerk systems {ie075-01}, whereG(x) is a non-linear function, which are known to exhibit chaotic behaviour at some parameter values. We particularly identify the regions of parameter space with different asymptotic dynamics using some analytical methods as well as extensive Lyapunov spectra calculation in complete parameter space. We also investigate the effect of weakening as well as strengthening of the non-linearity in theG(x) function on the global dynamics of these jerk dynamical systems. As a result, we reach to an important conclusion for these jerk dynamical systems that a certain amount of non-linearity is sufficient for exhibiting chaotic behaviour but increasing the non-linearity does not lead to larger regions of parameter space exhibiting chaos.     

AVERAGING IN WEAKLY COUPLED DISCRETE DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS

In [Y. Kifer, Averaging in difference equations driven by dynamical systems, Asterisque 287 (2003) 103–123] a general averaging principle for slow-fast discrete dynamical systems was presented. In this paper we extend this method to weakly coupled slow-fast systems. For this setting we obtain sharper estimates than in the mentioned paper.     

Quantum Dynamical Algebra SU(1,1) in One-Dimensional Exactly Solvable Potentials

In this paper, we establish the underlying quantum dynamical algebra SU(1,1) for some one-dimensional exactly solvable potentials by using the shift operators method. The connection between SU(1,1) algebra and the radial Hamiltionian problems is also discussed. PACS numbers: 03.65.Ge     

Application of epidemic models to phase transitions

The Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) and Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Recovered (SEIR) models describe the spread of epidemics in a society. In the typical case, the ratio of the susceptible individuals fall from a value S ₀ close to 1 to a final value S_f , while the ratio of recovered individuals rise from 0 to R_f?=?1???S_f . The sharp passage from the level zero to the level R_f allows also the modeling of phase transitions by the number of “recovered” individuals R(t) of the SIR or SEIR model. In this article, we model the sol–gel transition for polyacrylamide–sodium alginate (SA) composite with different concentrations of SA as SIR and SEIR dynamical systems by solving the corresponding differential equations numerically and we show that the phase transitions of “classical” and “percolation” types are represented, respectively, by the SEIR and SIR models.     

Theoretical and experimental studies on one-dimensional magnetic systems

The present situation in theoretical and experimental studies on one-dimensional magnetic systems is fully discussed. Equal-time as well as the dynamic properties are included with an emphasis on the latter. Four model systems are examined in detail: TMMC (Heisenberg antiferromagnet), CsNiF₃ (planar ferromagnet), CoCl₂. 2NC₅H₅ (Ising ferromagnet), CuCl₂. 2NC₅H₅ (Heisenberg antiferromagnet with S = ½). The equal-time properties are quite well understood in theory and in experiment but the dynamical properties much less so. The open questions and possible investigations for the future are discussed.     

Neutron,x-ray and lattice dynamical studies of paraelectric Sb2S3

Neutron and x-ray diffraction studies of Sb₂S₃ indicate extensive diffuse scattering in the plane perpendicular to the chain axis of polymer-like (Sb₄S₆) _n molecules. The crystal structure of the paraelectric phase is said to be orthorhombic with space group D _2h ¹⁶ with four molecules per unit cell. The observed diffuse scattering may be due to static disorder or some dynamical effects. In this paper the authors have examined the possible dynamical origin by recourse to lattice dynamical studies. Dispersion relation of phonons along the three symmetry directionsa*,b* andc* is evaluated based on a lattice dynamical model incorporating Coulomb, covalent and a Born-Mayer-like short range interactions. Group theoretical analysis based on the group of neutral elements of crystal sites (GNES) was essential in order to examine and aid in the numerical computations. The group theoretical technique involving GNES extended to ‘pseudo-molecular’ systems is also discussed in this context. The phonon dispersion relation shows that there are rather flat TA-TO branches of very low frequency in thea andc directions which may give rise to diffuse scattering. The branches along theb-axis are quite dissimilar to those alonga andc axes because of anisotropy. Variation of the potential parameters leads to instability of the lowest TA-TO branch. This is suggestive of a temperatures or pressure-dependent phase transition. However since these modes are optically ‘silent’ one needs to carry out either high resolution neutron scattering or ultrasonic studies to confirm various aspects of the theoretical studies.     

Ergodicity for the Randomly Forced 2D Navier–Stokes Equations

We study space-periodic 2D Navier–Stokes equations perturbed by an unbounded random kick-force. It is assumed that Fourier coefficients of the kicks are independent random variables all of whose moments are bounded and that the distributions of the first N ₀ coefficients (where N ₀ is a sufficiently large integer) have positive densities against the Lebesgue measure. We treat the equation as a random dynamical system in the space of square integrable divergence-free vector fields. We prove that this dynamical system has a unique stationary measure and study its ergodic properties.     

Probability of Local Bifurcation Type from a Fixed Point: A Random Matrix Perspective

Results regarding probable bifurcations from fixed points are presented in the context of general dynamical systems (real, random matrices), time-delay dynamical systems (companion matrices), and a set of mappings known for their properties as universal approximators (neural networks). The eigenvalue spectrum is considered both numerically and analytically using previous work of Edelman et al. Based upon the numerical evidence, various conjectures are presented. The conclusion is that in many circumstances, most bifurcations from fixed points of large dynamical systems will be due to complex eigenvalues. Nevertheless, surprising situations are presented for which the aforementioned conclusion does not hold, e.g., real random matrices with Gaussian elements with a large positive mean and finite variance.
