Uniqueness of Topological Solutions and the Structure of Solutions for the Chern-Simons System with Two Higgs Particles

The existence of topological solutions for the Chern-Simons equation with two Higgs particles has been proved by Lin, Ponce and Yang [16]. However, both the uniqueness problem and the existence of non-topological solutions have been left open. In this paper, we consider the case of one vortex at origin. Among others, we prove the uniqueness of topological solutions and give a complete study of the radial solutions, in particular, the existence of some non-topological solutions.     

CAN THE PRINCIPLE OF MICROCAUSALITY BE REMOVED ARBITRARILY?

We discuss the problem of microcausality in a model of quantized field theory. Under the assumptions that the commutator of the "in" fields satisfies the requirement of translational invariance, we show that, in the case of self-conjugate scalar particles or particles with integer spins, one can deduce the law of microcausality.     

Do bosons obey Bose-Einstein distribution: Two iterated limits of Gentile distribution

It is a common impression that by only setting the maximum occupation number to infinity, which is the demand of the indistinguishability of bosons, one can achieve the statistical distribution that bosons obey — the Bose-Einstein distribution. In this Letter, however, we show that only with an infinite maximum occupation number one cannot uniquely achieve the Bose-Einstein distribution, since in the derivation of the Bose-Einstein distribution, the problem of iterated limit is encountered. For achieving the Bose-Einstein distribution, one needs to take both the maximum occupation number and the total number of particles to infinities, and, then, the problem of the order of taking limits arises. Different orders of the limit operations will lead to different statistical distributions. For achieving the Bose-Einstein distribution, besides setting the maximum occupation number, we also need to state the order of the limit operations.     

Analysis of the method of generalized separation of variables in the problem of light scattering by small axisymmetric particles

In the problem of light scattering by small axisymmetric particles, we have constructed the Rayleigh approximation in which the polarizability of particles is determined by the generalized separation of variables method (GSVM). In this case, electric-field strengths are gradients of scalar potentials, which are represented as expansions in term of eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator in the spherical coordinate system. By virtue of the fact that the separation of variables in the boundary conditions is incomplete, the initial problem is reduced to infinite systems of linear algebraic equations (ISLAEs) with respect to unknown expansion coefficients. We have examined the asymptotic behavior of ISLAE elements at large values of indices. It has been shown that the necessary condition of the solvability of the ISLAE coincides with the condition of correct application of the extended boundary conditions method (ЕВСМ). We have performed numerical calculations for Chebyshev particles with one maximum (also known as Pascal’s snails or limaçons of Pascal). The obtained numerical results for the asymptotics of ISLAE elements and for the matrix support theoretical inferences. We have shown that the scattering and absorption cross sections of examined particles can be calculated in a wide range of variation of parameters with an error of about 1–2% using the spheroidal model. This model is also applicable in the case in which the solvability condition of the ISLAE for nonconvex particles is violated; in this case, the SVM should be considered as an approximate method, which frequently ensures obtaining results with an error less than 0.1–0.5%.     

四粒子纠缠的一般W态的退纠缠和W态的概率隐形传态

我们推广地得到了到四粒子纠缠的一般W态,给出了一般W态的不同退纠缠的条件,得到了一个新的二粒子的一般W态,并得到对于四粒子纠缠的一般W态而言,其系数α1,α2和α3从一个直到全部为零时,这一般的|ΨW〉依次有一个粒子,二个粒子和最后全部粒子退出纠缠。还给出了一个利用四个二粒子纠缠态作为量子信道来传送四粒子纠缠W态的方案,并且进一步给出了当量子信道为非最大纠缠态时,四粒子纠缠的一般W态的隐形传态的一个方案,同时通过构造一个5×5对角投影变换矩阵,解决了使用一般纠缠量子信道并不再引入辅助态时,态畸变的恢复问题.并且这里的对角投影变换UM也与以往文献中的不同,而且比过去文献的讨论更直接.因本文的研究是一般性的,本文关于对角的投影变换矩阵UM的变换方法等可以直接推广到任意一般纠缠信道的一般纠缠态的概率隐形传态。     

Chaotic delocalization of two interacting particles in the classical Harper model

We study the problem of two interacting particles in the classical Harper model in the regime when one-particle motion is absolutely bounded inside one cell of periodic potential. The interaction between particles breaks integrability of classical motion leading to emergence of Hamiltonian dynamical chaos. At moderate interactions and certain energies above the mobility edge this chaos leads to a chaotic propulsion of two particles with their diffusive spreading over the whole space both in one and two dimensions. At the same time the distance between particles remains bounded by one or two periodic cells demonstrating appearance of new composite quasi-particles called chaons. The effect of chaotic delocalization of chaons is shown to be rather general being present for Coulomb and short range interactions. It is argued that such delocalized chaons can be observed in experiments with cold atoms and ions in optical lattices.     

On quantum electrodynamics of two-particle bound states containing spinless particles

We develop here the general treatment arising from the Bethe-Salpeter equation for a two-particle bound system in which at least one of the particles is spinless. It is shown that a natural two-component formalism can be formulated for describing the propagators of scalar particles. This leads to a formulation of the Bethe-Salpeter equation in a form very reminiscent of the fermion-fermion case. It is also shown, that using this two-component formulation for spinless particles, the perturbation theory can be systematically developed in a manner similar to that of fermions. Quantum electrodynamics for scalar particles is then developed in the two component formalism, and the problem of bound states, in which one of the constituent particles is spinless, is examined by means of the means of the Bethe-Salpeter equation. For this case, the Bethe-Salpeter equation is cast into a form which is convenient to perform a Foldy-Woutyhuysen transformation which we carry out, keeping the lowest-order relativistic corrections to the nonrelativistic equation. The results are compared with the corresponding fermion-fermion case. It is shown, as might have been expected, that the only spin-independent terms that occur for the fermion-fermion system which do not occur for bound scalar particle cases, is the zitterbewegung contribution. The relevance of the above considerations for systems that are essentially bound by electromagnetic interactions, such as kaonic hydrogen, is discussed.     

Relativistic Two-Boson System in Presence of Electromagnetic Plane Wave

The relativistic two-body problem is considered for spinless particles subject to an external electromagnetic field. When this field is made of the monochromatic superposition of two counter-propagating plane waves (and provided the mutual interaction between particles is known), it is possible to write down explicitly a pair of coupled wave equations (corresponding to a pair of mass-shell constraints) which takes into account also the field contribution. These equations are manifestly covariant; constants of the motion are exhibited, so one ends up with a reduced problem involving five degrees of freedom.     

Stationary Scattering Theory for a Charged Particles Transport Problem

We consider a nonautonomous transport problem, the modelization of the charge exchange dynamics in a monoatomic ionized gas, and apply scattering theory to its dynamics. The free dynamics corresponds to the evolution of the total distribution of particles (neutral plus ionized particles) and the perturbed dynamics corresponds to the evolution of the neutral particles, which is the solution of a nonautonomous transport problem. The existence of the time-dependent wave operators was proved by the first author. In the present paper we follow Howland's formalism in constructing a stationary scattering theory for this nonautonomous transport problem by studying the evolution equation. We prove the existence of the wave operators and by using the smooth perturbation technique we obtain the similarity between perturbed and unperturbed operators.     

Statistical mechanical model with chemical reaction

We study a mixture of classical particles where unequal particles interact with strong binding forces, while equal particles repel each other with a hard-core interaction. The interactions are constructed so that at most two unequal particles can bind to a molecule. Such a system can be interpreted as one where the basic species react to form diatomic molecules, the equilibrium of which at low densities is governed by the well-known law of mass action. Our results explicate and supplement the approach of Andersen to this problem.     

The moment method for boundary layer problems in Brownian motion theory

We apply Grad's moment method, with Hermite moments and Marshak-type boundary conditions, to several boundary layer problems for the Klein-Kramers equation, the kinetic equation for noninteracting Brownian particles, and study its convergence properties as the number of moments is increased. The errors in various quantities of physical interest decrease asymptotically as inverse powers of this number; the exponent is roughly three times as large as in an earlier variational method, based on an expansion in the exact boundary layer eigenfunctions. For the case of a fully absorbing wall (the Milne problem) we obtain full agreement with the recent exact solution of Marshall and Watson; the relevant slip coefficient, the Milne length, is reproduced with an accuracy better than 10^–6. We also consider partially absorbing walls, with specular or diffuse reflection of nonabsorbed particles. In the latter case we allow for a temperature difference between the wall and the medium in which the particles move. There is noa priori reason why our method should work only for Brownian dynamics; one may hope to extend it to a broad class of linear transport equations. As a first test, we looked at the Milne problem for the BGK equation. In spite of the completely different analytic structure of the boundary layer eigenfunctions, the agreement with the exact solution is almost as good as for the Klein-Kramers equation.     

质量算符和五维概率分布空间的规范场理论(英文)

鉴于量子场论中普遍存在的粒子产生和湮灭,把描述场量的独立变量个数从量子力学波函数的4个常规时空坐标推广到了5个,其中第5个独立变量对应为粒子的内禀固有时,但是粒子运动的背景还是4维的常规时空。在场函数中固有时之所以可以看作为独立于常规时空坐标的变量,不仅是量子物理所特有的概率性描述语言所允许的,而且有可能是描述量子场论中广泛存在的粒子产生和湮灭现象所必需的。与此对应,在量子场论中,引入了质量算符((?)=-i(?))。由此,自由费米场在推广到五维概率分布空间和引入质量算符的基础上,根据相互作用的规范原理,引入了矢量规范相互作用和标量规范相互作用,同时所有的基本粒子的质量项都由质量算符自然地呈现。在此物理图像下,原则上基本粒子的质量应该通过求解相互作用耦合下的质量算符的本征值得到。此外,理论中存在普遍耦合的标量规范场和质量算符天然地联系在一起,有可能和引力作用对应起来。     

Path of Momentum Integral in the Skorniakov-Ter-Martirosian Equation

The Skorniakov-Ter-Martirosian (STM) integral equation is widely used for the quantum three-body problems of low-energy particles (e.g., ultracold atom gases). With this equation these three-body problems can be efficiently solved in the momentum space. In this approach the boundary condition for the case that all the three particles are gathered together is described by the upper limit of the momentum integral, i.e., the momentum cutoff. On the other hand, in realistic systems, the three-body recombination (TBR) process can occur when all these three particles are close to each other. In this process two particles form a deep dimer and the other particle can gain high kinetic energy and then escape from the low-energy system. In the presence of the TBR process, the momentum-cutoff in the STM equation would include a non-zero imaginary part. As a result, the momentum integral in the STM equation should be done in the complex-momentum plane. In this case the result of the integral depends on the choice of the integral path. Obviously, only one integral path can lead to the correct result. In this paper we consider how to correctly choose the integral path for the STM equation. We take the atom-dimer scattering problem in a specific ultracold atom gas as an example, and show the results given by different integral paths. Based on the result for this case we explore the reasonable integral paths for general case.     

A Counter Example to Cercignani’s Conjecture for the <Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis> Dimensional Kac Model

Kac’s d dimensional model gives a linear, many particle, binary collision model from which, under suitable conditions, the celebrated Boltzmann equation, in its spatially homogeneous form, arise as a mean field limit. The ergodicity of the evolution equation leads to questions about the relaxation rate, in hope that such a rate would pass on the Boltzmann equation as the number of particles goes to infinity. This program, starting with Kac and his one dimensional ‘Spectral Gap Conjecture’ at 1956, finally reached its conclusion in the Maxwellian case in a series of papers by authors such as Janvresse, Maslen, Carlen, Carvalho, Loss and Geronimo, but the hope to get a limiting relaxation rate for the Boltzmann equation with this linear method was already shown to be unrealistic (although the problem is still important and interesting due to its connection with the linearized Boltzmann operator). A less linear approach, via a many particle version of Cercignani’s conjecture, is the grounds for this paper. In our paper, we extend recent results by the author from the one dimensional Kac model to the d dimensional one, showing that the entropy-entropy production ratio, Γ _N , still yields a very strong dependency in the number of particles of the problem when we consider the general case.

Genuine Equilibria of Three Body Coulomb Configurations

The problem analyzed is the classical non-regularized Hamiltonian formulation of a restricted three body problem under the influence of Coulomb-interactions. Completing the large literature on Helium-like systems we will consider the motions around a fixed positive point charge of (i) one negative and one positive point charge as well as the “classical” issue of (ii) two negative point charges. Thereby, all our considerations deal with arbitrary positive and negative charge values of the mass particles. Here, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of genuine equilibria in such systems—recall that there are none in the usual classical Helium-atom—and analyze their linearized stability. The thus obtained insights allow us to study the dynamics near such genuine equilibria.     

Calculation of Canonical Properties and Excited States by Path Integral Numerical Methods

Path integral Monte Carlo method in the expanded ensemble is used for calculation of the ratio of partition functions for different classes of permutations treating the problem of several interacting identical particles (fermions) in an external field. Wang‐Landau algorithm is used for adjustment of balancing factors. For systems consisting of greater than two number of particles we propose an advanced variant of our approach which implies calculation of the ratio of positive and negative contributions to the partition function. Densities and energies of the sequence of excited states starting from the ground state for a system of non interacting quantum particles are calculated in turn, one by one, by means of considering systems with artificially excluded lowest energy levels and further obtaining of the ”ground state” of each next system constructed in this way. The idea of evaluation of densities of excited states for a quantum system with interparticle interaction by evaluating density difference between systems of different number of noninteracting Fermi‐copies of the system of interest is realized in terms of cyclic expansion formalism for a simple 2D system of two spinless fermions interacting via Coulomb repulsion (© 2011 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
