Large deviations and Lifshitz singularity of the integrated density of states of random Hamiltonians

We consider the integrated density of states (IDS) ρ_∞(λ) of random Hamiltonian H_ω=?Δ+V_ω, V_ω being a random field on ? ^d which satisfies a mixing condition. We prove that the probability of large fluctuations of the finite volume IDS |Λ|^?1ρ(λ, H_Λ(ω)), Λ ? ? ^d , around the thermodynamic limit ρ_∞(λ) is bounded from above by exp {?k|Λ|},k>0. In this case ρ_∞(λ) can be recovered from a variational principle. Furthermore we show the existence of a Lifshitztype of singularity of ρ_∞(λ) as λ → 0⁺ in the case where V_ω is non-negative. More precisely we prove the following bound: ρ_∞(λ)≦exp(?kλ^?d/2) as λ → 0⁺ k>0. This last result is then discussed in some examples.     

The exponential interaction in Rn

We prove that the Schwinger functions for the ultraviolet cut-off exponential interaction with euclidean measure exp {;?λ∫Λ:e^αξk(x):dx} dμ₀(ξ/ ∫ exp{?λ∫Λ:e^αξk(x):dx} dμ₀(ξ), λ > 0, converge as the ultraviolet cut-off is removed. The limits are the free Schwinger functions in the case of space-time dimension n ? 3. In the case n = 2 this holds for |α| sufficiently big, whereas for |α| < 2 √π, one has the well-known nontrivial Schwinger functions of the exponential interaction.     

固定边矩形板的弯曲问题

The problem of bending of orthotropic rectangular plates with clamped edges on elastic foundation may be reduced to the following differential equation and boundary conditions (?⁴w)/(?x⁴)+2λ(?⁴w)/(?x²?y²)+(?⁴w)/(?y⁴)+kw=q/D. w=0, (?w)/(?x)=0 at x=±a, w=0, (?w)/(?y)=0, at y=±b. In the case of isotropic plates, λ = 1. In this paper a perturbation method is proposed for the solution of this problem fay expanding w in power series of λ: w=w₀+w₁λ+w₂λ²+……. It is proved that this series is convergent when -1 ≤λ≤1.     

Thermally assisted hopping transport in disordered systems

The response to an external field of localized electrons coupled to phonons is investigated. The low frequency (ω<T) linear response function is shown to obey a kinetic equation. The transition probabilities (including multiphonon contributions) can be expressed in terms of the dynamical correlation functions(k, ?) of the phonons. The low temperature d.c. conductivity in three dimensions obeys a law σ(0)=σ₀ · exp(? (T ₀/T)^1/4). By a combined variational and “nearest neighbor” approximation upper limits for the exponential as well as the pre-exponential factor are obtained. In two dimensions the 1/4 in the exponent has to be replaced by 1/3. The one-dimensional case requires separate considerations which do not simply lead to an exponent 1/2. An expression for the thermopower in the hopping regime is derived and evaluated.     

Charge symmetrical pairing correlations for Even-Even nuclei withN=Z

The temperature dependence of the critical heat currentQ _c in He II has been measured in the temperature region 3 · 10^?5 (?K)<T _λ?T<1.2 · 10^?2 (?K). The result Q_c∫ (T _λ?T)^1.07±0.01is consistent with a divergent mutual friction nearT _λ proposed recently byAhlers.     

Reggeon quantum mechanics: A critical discussion

The quantum-mechanical problem of reggeon field theory in zero transverse dimensions is re-examined in order to set up a precise mathematical framework for the case μ = α(0) ? 1 > 0. We establish a Hamiltonian formulation in a Hilbert space for (ifμ > 0) and we prove the equivalence of the related eigenvalue problem with a “radial” Schrödinger-type equation in an L²(0, ∞) space. We prove that the S-matrix and the pomeron Green functions, at fixed rapidity Y and triple-pomeron coupling λ ≠ 0, have a spectral decomposition and are analytic in μ for ?∞ < μ < + ∞. For μ > 0, we confirm most of the qualitative results found by previous authors, and in particular the tunnelling shift [～ exp(?μ²/2λ²)] setting the scale for the asymptotic behaviour in Y.In the classical limit of λ/μ small we find that the action, for μ > 0, develops a singularity in Y at some value Y_c. We give arguments to show that for Y ? Y_c the perturbative result is reached, while for $\text{Y ? Y}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>c</mtext>}}$ perturbation theory breaks down. Most of these results are shown to be stable against the addition of a small quartic coupling of the simplest type [$\text{λ′(}\text{Ψ}\text{Ψ)}{}^2$] up to the “magic” vvalue λ′ = λ²/μ. The existence of a level crossing at this value is confirmed by an analytic continuation in λ′.     

Electrical conductivity in amorphous Si(O or H)-Au films

SiO films obtained by sputtering in an ArO mixture with an oxygen partial pressure less than 3% are similar to a-Si films: the resistivity is proportional to exp (T₀/T)^{$\text{1}\text{4}$} and T₀ increases with oxygen content and decreases with increasing Au concentration (? 3.7 at.%). On the other hand, above an oxygen partial pressure of 5% one obtains insulating amorphous SiO₂ films. Conductivity appears in such films for Au? 13 at.% (? the percolation threshold) and then the resistivity is proportional to exp (T₀/T)^{$\text{1}\text{2}$}. The same behavior is observed when oxygen is replaced by hydrogen.     

Diffusionskonstante und charakteristische Absorption vor der Bandkante von Mn in ZnO-Kristallen

ZnO single crystals were doped with Mn and Co by diffusion. In the temperature range from 1400–1600 K the Mn and Co-diffusion-constants were determined:D _Mn=3.2 · 10^?3 exp (?2.87 eV/kT) cm² sec^?1 andD _Co=1·10exp(?3.98 eV/kT) cm² sec^?1. The Mn doped ZnO crystals show a characteristic colour due to an absorption near the intrinsic absorption edge. The corresponding absorption spectra were measured forE⊥c andE∥c. A discussion of different absorption mechanism shows that a charge-transfer transition is responsible for this absorption.     

Iodine as a donor in CdS

Iodine doped single crystals of CdS were grown from the vapor phase. High temperature Hall effect measurements for the crystals equilibrated with Cd and S₂ vapors at temperatures between 700 and 1000°C gave the free electron concentration as a function of p_Cd or p_S2 and temperature. The results can be explained on the basis of a model in which the CdS is saturated with iodine at low p_Cd (=high p_S2) but unsaturated at high p_Cd.The solubility of iodine in CdS is given by c_t=1·73×10²²p_S2^?1/8 exp (?1·045 eV/kT) cm^?3 atm^?1/8=4·62×10¹⁹p_Cd^1/4 exp (?0·195 eV/kT) cm^?3 atm^1/4The formation of pairs (I_SV_Cd)′ from I_S^· and V_Cd″ is governed by the equilibrium constant K_{P(I, V)}=4 exp (≤1·1 eV/kT)If Cd diffusion occurs primarily by free vacancies, the Cd^* tracer self diffusion leads to a vacancy mobility of (1·2±0·5)×10^?5 cm² sec^?1 at 900°C, in agreement with results reported by Woodbury [12], but (7±3) times larger than reported by Kumar and Kroger [10].     

Measurement of magnetostriction and anisotropy of Mg-ferrite

The magnetostriction constants λ₁₀₀ and λ₁₁₁ and the anisotropy constant K₁ of Mg-ferrites [Mg_η;Fe_1?η][Mg_1?ηFe_1+η]O₄, (η = 0·101, 0·154, 0·184, 0·219) at room temperature, liquid N₂ temperature and liquid He temperature were observed by ferrimagnetic resonance techniques at 9·5 GHz.The signs of the magnetostriction constants λ₁₀₀ and λ₁₁₁ are always negative and positive, respectively and the magnitudes of these constants increase with decreasing temperature. These constants λ₁₀₀ and λ₁₁₁ at liquid He temperature are found to be ? 14·4 × 10^?6 and 2·4 × 10^?6 respectively, when η is 0·101, and then the magnitudes of those constants decrease linearly with increasing η.     

E.S.R. evidence for the planarity of the t-butyl radical

Monte Carlo calculations are reported for the radial distribution function g ₂(r; λ) of a fluid in which the intermolecular pair potential is [u ^ref(r) + λu ^p(r)], u ^ref(r) being the Weeks-Chandler-Andersen (WCA) reference fluid, and [u ^ref(r) + u ^p(r)] being the Lennard-Jones (6, 12) fluid. The calculations are performed for λ values in the range 0 to 1, at the state condition ρσ³ = 0·80, kT/ε = 0·719. It is shown that at high densities the perturbation expansion of g ₂(r; λ = 1) about g ₂(r; λ = 0) is rapidly convergent, but that the corresponding expansion for y ₂(r; λ) = exp [βu(r; λ)] × g ₂(r; λ) is not. In addition Monte Carlo estimates of the individual terms that contribute to the first-order perturbation term, (?g ₂/?λ)_λ=0, are presented. It is shown that these terms are individually large, but that (?g ₂/?λ)_λ=0 is small because there is strong cancellation between the various terms. Consequently, the calculation of (?g ₂/?λ)_λ=0 is highly sensitive to the approximation used to evaluate the individual terms.     

Specific Heat of the Spin-1/2 Dimerized Antiferromagnetic Chains at Low Temperatures

A spin linear chain with antiferromagnetic nearest-neighbor interaction is considered. The coupling constants of each spin with the right and left neighbors are different. Within the Bulaevskii model, the magnetic specific heat is calculated as a function of temperature for different alternation parameters. It is shown that the temperature dependence of the specific heat has two regimes. In the first one, the temperature is lower than half the band gap; in this case, in the low-temperature limit, C ∝ T^-1 exp(?Δ/k_BT). In the second regime, the temperature exceeds half the band gap; in this case, we approximately have C ∝ T.

On Gibbs Measures of Models with Competing Ternary and Binary Interactions and Corresponding von Neumann Algebras

In the present paper a model with competing ternary (J ₂) and binary (J ₁) interactions with spin values ±1, on a Cayley tree is considered. One studies the structure of Gibbs measures for the model considered. It is known, that under some conditions on parameters J ₁,J ₂ (resp. in the opposite case) there are three (resp. a unique) translation-invariant Gibbs measures. We prove, that two of them (minimal and maximal) are extreme in the set of all Gibbs measures and also construct two periodic (with period 2) and uncountable number of distinct non-translation-invariant Gibbs measures. One shows that they are extreme. Besides, types of von Neumann algebras, generated by GNS-representation associated with diagonal states corresponding to extreme periodic Gibbs measures, are determined. Namely, it is shown that an algebra associated with the unordered phase is a factor of type III _λ , where λ=exp{?2βJ ₂}, β>0 is the inverse temperature. We find conditions, which ensure that von Neumann algebras, associated with the periodic Gibbs measures, are factors of type III _δ , otherwise they have type III₁.     

The beam quality of nonparaxial Hermite-sine-Gaussian beam

Based on the theory of the second intensity moment of nonparaxial scalar beam and the method of angular spectrum, the expressions for the far-field divergence angle, waist width and M² factor of nonparaxial Hermite-sine-Gaussian (HSiG) beams are derived. Calculation and analysis show the dependence of the far-field divergence angle of nonparaxial HSiG beams on the parameter w₀/λ, as well as on order m, And it with even and odd orders approach 73.898° and 63.435° as w₀/λ → 0. With increasing order m and the parameter w₀/λ, the waist width increase monotonously, which is same as paraxial case. But nonparaxial M² factor is different from paraxial case, it cannot only less than 1, but also approach 0 as w₀/λ → 0.     

An application of hypervirial perturbation theory to calculate energy eigenvalues of the Morse potential for various diatomic molecules

The Schrödinger equation with the potentialV(r)=D[exp(?2β(r?r _e))?2exp(?β(r?r _e))] is treated in the framework of the hypervirial-renormalization parameter scheme. The energy eigenvalues of various eigenstates for different molecules are calculated.     

Effect of surface orientation and thickness on the magnetization of anisotropic FCC ferromagnetic films

The dependence on temperature of the layer magnetization of a Heisenberg ferromagnetic ultrathin film in presence of magnetocrystalline single-ion anisotropy was theoretically investigated in the framework of a Green's function approach using the random phase approximation (RPA). The effect of surface orientation and of film thickness N on the Curie temperature T_C was carefully investigated in the case of face centered cubic (FCC) films: the steepest increase of T_C(N) was found in the case of the FCC(1 1 1) orientation and the smoothest in the FCC(1 1 0) one. Our results for T_C(N) were successfully fitted by a finite-size scaling relation [T_C(∞)−T_C(N)]/T_C(N)=(N/N₀)^−λ, giving a shift exponent λ≃1.5, irrespectively of the surface orientation. Finally, the temperature evolution of the magnetization profile was analyzed, as well as its limiting shape at T_C.     

Electron-phonon scattering in potassium at high magnetic fields

We have measured the temperature dependence of both the zero-field resistivity and the transverse magnetoresistance of polycrystalline potassium wires (?(300 K)/?(4.2 K)=140 to 6000) in fieldsH?35 kG and at temperaturesT?4.2 K. Our principal findings are: 1) The presence of a large magnetic fieldH=35 kG does not alter the temperature dependence of ? from that observed atH=0; below 4.2 K theT-dependent part of the resistivities,_?T (H=0) and_?T (H=35 kG), fit well to the function exp (?Θ*/T) with the same Θ*=23K. 2) Deviations from Matthiessen's rule are significantly reduced in a strong field so that the magnitude of_?T (H=0) approaches that of_?T (H=35 kG) as sample purity decreases. 3) The slope of the high-field linear magnetoresistance increases slightly (?8%) from 1.5 K to 4.2 K. We attribute the exponential temperature dependence of_?T (H) to the freezing out of electron-phonon umklapp processes as has been shown for the zero-field resistivity. The reduction in deviations from Matthiessen's rule at high fields can be understood within semiclassical theory, but the latter cannot explain the failure of_?T (H) to saturate at high fields. A proposal by Young that electron-phonon umklapp scattering may contribute aT-dependent high-field linear magnetoresistance in potassium is considered.     

Electroweak baryon number violation at finite temperature

We consider baryon and lepton number violating processes in the electroweak theory induced by gauge and Higgs fields passing the sphaleron solution at finite temperature. We show that for temperatures larger than 19 GeV the anomalous baryon and lepton number violating processes are suppressed by the Boltzmann factor exp (?βE _sp), whereE _sp is the sphaleron energy, rather than by the instanton tunneling factor exp (?8π²/g ²). We caculate the rate of baryon and lepton number violating processes at finite temperature and determine the freezing temperature of the anomalous processes in the early universe as a function of the Higgs mass. We compare the freezing temperature with the critical temperature of the electroweak phase transition infered from the one-loop finite-temperature effective potential. We obtain a critical Higgs mass of the order of 100 GeV, slightly depending on the top mass and the magnitude of the pre-exponential factor in the rate of theB non-conservation, above which the anomalous processes are certainly in equilibrium after the electroweak phase transition. Assuming that the temperature-dependence of the sphaleron energy is given by that found from the one-loop finitetemperature effective potential, this critical Higgs mass is lowered to a value of the order of 50 GeV.
