Point Interactions in One Dimension and Holonomic Quantum Fields

We introduce and study a family of quantum fields, associated to δ-interactions in one dimension. These fields are analogous to holonomic quantum fields of Sato et al. in Holonomic quantum fields I–V (Publ. RIMS, Kyoto University, 14: 223–267, 1978; 15: 201–278, 1979; 15: 577–629, 1979; 15: 871-972, 1979; 16: 531–584, 1979). Corresponding field operators belong to an infinite-dimensional representation of the group in the Fock space of ordinary harmonic oscillator. We compute form factors of such fields and their correlation functions, which are related to the determinants of Schroedinger operators with a finite number of point interactions. It is also shown that these determinants coincide with tau functions, obtained through the trivialization of the det^*-bundle over a Grassmannian associated to a family of Schroedinger operators.     

On Higher Order Pyramidal Finite Elements

In this paper we first prove a theorem on the nonexistence of pyramidal polynomial basis functions. Then we present a new symmetric composite pyramidal finite element which yields a better convergence than the nonsymmetric one. It has fourteen degrees of freedom and its basis functions are incomplete piecewise triquadratic polynomials. The space of ansatz functions contains all quadratic functions on each of four sub-tetrahedra that form a given pyramidal element.     

The role of emitter quasi-bound state and scattering on intrinsic bistability in resonant tunneling diodes

Usually, numerical self-consistent calculations predict a much larger intrinsic bistability region than actually is measured in resonant tunneling diodes (RTDs). In addition, numerical calculations have shown that scattering in the well reduces bistability. We used a unified treatment of current flowing from continuum states and emitter quasi-bound states to show numerically and analytically that not only the scattering in the quantum well but also the scattering in the emitter reduces bistability. Moreover, within the Hartree approximation, bistability occurs by tunneling resonantly between emitter quasi-bound state and well quasi-bound state as a pitchfork bifurcation.     

Chaos based multiple image encryption using multiple canonical transforms

We propose a new method for multiple image encryption using linear canonical transforms and chaotic maps. Three linear canonical transforms and three chaotic maps are used in the proposed technique. The three linear canonical transforms that have been used are the fractional Fourier transform, the extended fractional Fourier transform and the Fresnel transform. The three chaotic maps that have been used are the tent map, the Kaplan-Yorke map and the Ikeda map. These chaotic maps are used to generate the random phase masks and these random phase masks are known as chaotic random phase masks. The mean square error and the signal to noise ratio have been calculated. Robustness of the proposed technique to blind decryption has been evaluated. Optical implementation of the technique has been proposed. Experimental and simulations results are presented to verify the validity of the proposed technique.     

Fractal differential equations and fractal-time dynamical systems

Differential equations and maps are the most frequently studied examples of dynamical systems and may be considered as continuous and discrete time-evolution processes respectively. The processes in which time evolution takes place on Cantor-like fractal subsets of the real line may be termed as fractal-time dynamical systems. Formulation of these systems requires an appropriate framework. A new calculus calledF ^α-calculus, is a natural calculus on subsetsF⊂ R of dimension α,0 < α ≤ 1. It involves integral and derivative of order α, calledF ^α-integral andF ^α-derivative respectively. TheF ^α-integral is suitable for integrating functions with fractal support of dimension α, while theF ^α-derivative enables us to differentiate functions like the Cantor staircase. The functions like the Cantor staircase function occur naturally as solutions ofF ^α-differential equations. Hence the latter can be used to model fractal-time processes or sublinear dynamical systems. We discuss construction and solutions of some fractal differential equations of the form

Exact expressions for row correlation functions in the isotropicd=2 ising model

We present exact explicit expressions for the row spin-spin correlation functions _{00 n}0 in the isotropicd= 2 Ising model, in terms of elliptic integrals, forn 5. We also give a general structural formula for _{00 n}0.     

Some neutral current effects in an SU(3)×U(1) gauge model

The anomalous magnetic moment of muon is calculated in anSU(3)×U(1) gauge model proposed by Gupta and Mani. We find the contribution due to the intermediate gauge bosons to be of the same order of magnitude as in Weinberg. Salam model. The deep-inelastic structure functions are also analysed in the same model and inequalities for the structure functions are obtained in the light-cone algebra approach.     

An exactly soluble case of the triangular ising model in a magnetic field

An anisotropic triangular Ising model in which the first- and second-order parameters and the field parameters are functionally related is solved exactly by representing the distribution of the atom patterns in terms of a suitably constructed Markov process. The probabilities of patterns, defined as the probabilities generated by this process, are a mathematically tractable alternative to the classical representation of these probabilities in terms of the partition function. The interaction and field parameters of this Ising model, its magnetization, free energy, and its nearest neighbor correlation functions, are expressed in terms of the parameters of this Markov process. Special cases are worked out in detail and numerical examples are given.
