Effective potential for the massless KPZ equation

In previous work we have developed a general method for casting a classical field theory subject to Gaussian noise (that is, a stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE)) into a functional integral formalism that exhibits many of the properties more commonly associated with quantum field theories (QFTs). In particular, we demonstrated how to derive the one-loop effective potential. In this paper we apply the formalism to a specific field theory of considerable interest, the massless KPZ equation (massless noisy Burgers equation), and analyze its behavior in the ultraviolet (short-distance) regime. When this field theory is subject to white noise we can calculate the one-loop effective potential and show that it is one-loop ultraviolet renormalizable in 1, 2, and 3 space dimensions, and fails to be ultraviolet renormalizable in higher dimensions. We show that the one-loop effective potential for the massless KPZ equation is closely related to that for λφ⁴ QFT. In particular, we prove that the massless KPZ equation exhibits one-loop dynamical symmetry breaking (via an analog of the Coleman–Weinberg mechanism) in 1 and 2 space dimensions, and that this behavior does not persist in 3 space dimensions.     

Functional Fokker-Planck formalism for wave propagation in random media under delocalized and weak localized regimes

The functional Fokker-Planck equation is used to obtain the phenomenological radiative transfer theory in the form of the modified Ambarzumian-Chandrasekhar equation which takes into account the backscattering enhancement effect from the 3D slab of a randomly inhomogeneous medium.     

Prolongation theory. A new nonlinear Schrödinger equation

We discuss a new kind of nonlinear Schrödinger equation from the viewpoint of prolongation theory. It is shown that the equation possess a Lax pair with a 3 × 3 matrix structure. It is further demonstrated that by a multiple scale perturbation of Zakharovet al. it can be reduced to the usual KdV equation.     

Loop variables and gauge invariant exact renormalization group equations for (open) string theory

An exact renormalization group equation is written down for the world sheet theory describing the bosonic open string in general backgrounds. Loop variable techniques are used to make the equation gauge invariant. This is worked out explicitly up to level 3. The equation is quadratic in the fields and can be viewed as a proposal for a string field theory equation. As in the earlier loop variable approach, the theory has one extra space dimension and mass is obtained by dimensional reduction. Being based on the sigma model RG, it is background independent. It is intriguing that in contrast to BRST string field theory, the gauge transformations are not modified by the interactions up to the level calculated. The interactions can be written in terms of gauge invariant field strengths for the massive higher spin fields and the non-zero mass is essential for this. This is reminiscent of Abelian Born–Infeld action (along with derivative corrections) for the massless vector field, which is also written in terms of the field strength.     

Soliton multidimensional equations and integrable evolutions preserving Laplace's equation

The KP equation, which is an integrable nonlinear evolution equation in 2+1, i.e., two spatial and one temporal dimensions, is a physically significant generalization of the KdV equation. The question of constructing an integrable generalization of the KP equation in 3+1, has been one of the central open problems in the field of integrability. By complexifying the independent variables of the KP equation, I obtain an integrable nonlinear evolution equation in 4+2. The requirement that real initial conditions remain real under this evolution, implies that the dependent variable satisfies a nonlinear evolution equation in 3+1 coupled with Laplace's equation. A reduction of this system of equations to a single equation in 2+1 contains as particular cases certain singular integro-differential equations which appear in the theory of water waves.     

Unification of gravitational and strong nuclear fields

Using the recently derived Evans wave equation of unified field theory, the strong nuclear field is described with an SU(3) representation of the gravitational field and the Gell-Mann color triplet is derived from general relativity as a three-spinor eigenfunction of the Evans wave equation.     

A non-relativistic wave equation of second order in time for scalar fields

In this paper a generalization of the traditional non-relativistic Schrödinger equation is considered. It is a wave equation of second order in time and fourth order in the space coordinates for scalar fields. The equation has certain features, which make it a closer analogue of the Klein-Gordon equation than the traditional Schrödinger equation. However, the equation maintains the non-relativistic relation between energy and momentum.The implications of this generalized wave equation and the quantized field theory based on it are studied. The theory can be shown to be charge symmetric and allows to introduce anti-particles and pair creation. We compare the Green functions for this theory with those of conventional non-relativistic quantum theory.The theory allows to formulate a transformation for charge conjugation. The PCT-theorem is valid for it. The usual spin-statistics connection holds.     

Some New Features of Linear Theory for Describing Non-linear Diffusion

The non-linear flux equation, the non-linear Fokker-Planck equation (or Smoluchowski equation), and the non-linear Langiven equation are the basicequations for describing particle diffusion in non-ideal system subjected totime-dependent external fields. Nevertheless, the exact solution of thoseequations is still a challenge because of their inherent complexity of thenon-linear mathematics. Li et al. found that, based on the defined apparentvariables, the non-linear Fokker-Planck equation and the non-linear flux equation could be transformed to linear forms under the condition of strong friction limit or local equilibrium assumption. In this paper, some new features of the theory were found: (i) The linear flux equation for describing non-linear diffusion can be obtained from the irreversible thermodynamic theory; (ii) The linear non-steady state diffusion equation for describing non-linear diffusion of the non-steady state, which was described by the non-linear Fokker-Planck equation, can be derived more consistently from the microscopic molecular statistical theory; (iii) In the theory, thenon-linear Langiven equation also bears a linear form; (iv) For some special cases, e.g. diffusion in a periodic total potential system, the local equilibrium assumption or the strong friction limit is not required in establishing the linear theory for describing non-linear diffusion, so the linear theory may be important in the study of Brown motor.

Divergence-free WKB theory

We present a divergence-free WKB theory, which is a new semiclassical theory modified by nonperturbative quantum corrections. Conventionally, the WKB theory is constructed upon a trajectory that obeys the bare classical dynamics expressed by a quadratic equation in momentum space. Contrary to this, the divergence-free WKB theory is based on a higher-order algebraic equation in momentum space, which represents a dressed classical dynamics. More precisely, this higher-order algebraic equation is obtained by including quantum corrections to the quadratic equation, which is the bare classical limit. An additional solution of the higher-order algebraic equation enables us to construct a uniformly converging perturbative expansion of the wavefunction. Namely, our theory removes the notorious divergence of wavefunction at a turning point from the WKB theory. Moreover, our theory is able to produce wavefunctions and eigenenergies more accurate than those given by the traditional WKB method. In addition, the divergence-free WKB theory that is based on the cubic equation allows us to construct a uniformly valid wavefunction for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE). A recent short letter [T. Hyouguchi, S. Adachi, M. Ueda, Phys. Rev. Lett. 88 (2002) 170404] is the opening of the divergence-free WKB theory. This paper presents full formalism of this theory and its several applications concerning wavefunction and eigenenergy to show that our theory is a natural extension of the traditional WKB theory that incorporates nonperturbative quantum corrections.     

New Exact Solutions and Conservation Laws to (3+1)-Dimensional Potential-YTSF Equation

Using the modified CK's direct method, we build the relationship between new solutions and old ones and find some new exact solutions to the (3+1)-dimensional potential-YTSF equation. Based on the invariant group theory, Lie point symmetry groups and Lie symmetries of the (3+1)-dimensional potential-YTSF equation are obtained. We also get conservation laws of the equation with the given Lie symmetry.     

A DFT-based microkinetic theory for Fe2O3 reduction by CO in chemical looping

Redox kinetics of oxygen carrier in chemical looping is an important component for material preparation, reactor design and process demonstration. How to bridge the gap between the microscale density functional theory (DFT) and the macroscale redox kinetics and develop a first-principle-based theoretical model is still a challenge in the field of chemical looping. This study addresses this challenge and proposes a DFT-based microkinetic rate equation theory to calculate the heterogeneous kinetics of Fe₂O₃ reduction by CO in chemical looping. Firstly, the DFT calculation is adopted to search the reaction pathways and to obtain the energy barriers of elementary reactions. Secondly, the DFT results are introduced into the transition state theory (TST) to calculate the reaction rate constants and build the rate equations of elementary surface reactions. Finally, by considering the bulk diffusion, a rate equation is developed to bridge the gap between the elementary surface reactions and the grain conversion. In the theory, the reaction mechanism obtained from DFT and kinetic rate constants obtained from TST are directly implemented into the rate equation to predict the reduction kinetics of oxygen carriers without fitting experimental data. The accuracy of the developed theory is validated by experimental data of two Fe₂O₃ oxygen carriers obtained from the thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA). The microkinetic rate equation theory is based on the first principles calculation and can predict directly the redox kinetics of oxygen carriers without depending on the experimental kinetic data, therefore, it provides a powerful theoretical tool to screen the oxygen carrier materials and optimize the microstructure of oxygen carriers.

Einstein-Maxwell theory in 2+1 dimensions

Einstein-Maxwell theory in 2+1 dimensions is considered as a toy model for the 3+1 theory and as a means for understanding field theories without a background space-time geometry. Two possible approaches to the quantization of this theory are presented, one based on a Schwinger-Tomonaga time evolution equation and the other on a loop space construction, and the problems arising in both of these are discussed.     

Exact Absorption Probabilities for the D3-Brane

We consider a minimal scalar in the presence of a three-brane in ten dimensions. The linearized equation of motion, which is just the wave equation in the three-brane metric, can be solved in terms of associated Mathieu functions. An exact expression for the reflection and absorption probabilities can be obtained in terms of the characteristic exponent of Mathieu's equation. We describe an algorithm for obtaining the low-energy behavior as a series expansion, and discuss the implications for the world-volume theory of D3-branes.

Dependence of the ordinary hall constant on the temperature and alloying-element concentration

An equation is derived for the Hall constant for the case of a binary disordered solid solution on the basis of two-band theory. The equation explains the change in the sign of the Hall emf at certain alloying-element concentrations. An equation is found for the temperature coefficient of the Hall constant for a compensated metal; this equation explains the decrease in this coefficient with increasing temperature and the change in sign at certain alloying-element concentrations.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii Fizika, No. 3, pp. 59–64, March, 1971.
