The quantum stochastic equation is unitarily equivalent to a symmetric boundary value problem for the Schrödinger equation

We prove that the solution of the Hudson-Parthasarathy quantum stochastic differential equation in the Fock space coincides with the solution of a symmetric boundary value problem for the Schrödinger equation in the interaction representation generated by the energy operator of the environment. The boundary conditions describe the jumps in the phase and the amplitude of the Fourier transforms of the Fock vector components as any of its arguments changes the sign. The corresponding Markov evolution equation (the Lindblad equation or the “master equation”) is derived from the boundary value problem for the Schrödinger equation.     

Geometric Analysis and Symbol Calculus: Fourier Transform Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Wavelets

Due to its unequalled advantages, the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) modality has truly revolutionized the diagnosis and evaluation of pathology. Because many morphological anatomic details that may not be visualized by other high tech imaging methods can now be readily shown by diagnostic MRI, it has already become the standard modality by which all other clinical imaging techniques are measured. The unique quantum physical basis of the MRI modality combined with the imaging capabilities of current computer technology has made this imaging modality a target of interdisciplinary interest for clinicians, physicists, biologists, engineers, and mathematicians. Due to the fact that MRI scanners perform corticomorphic processing, this modality is by far more complex than all the other high tech clinical imaging techniques. The purpose of this paper is to outline a phase coherent wavelet approach to Fourier transform MRI. It is based on distributional harmonic analysis on the Heisenberg nilpotent Lie group G and the associated symplectically invariant symbol calculus of pseudodifferential operators. The contour and contrast resolution of MRI scans which is controlled by symplectic filter bank processing gives the noninvasive MRI modality superiority over X-ray computed tomography (CT) in soft tissue differentiation.     

The Stochastic Beverton-Holt Equation and the M. Neubert Conjecture

In the Beverton-Holt difference equation of population biology with intrinsic growth parameter above its critical value, any initial non-zero population will approach an asymptotically stable fixed point, the carrying capacity of the environment. When this carrying capacity is allowed to vary periodically it is known that there is a globally asymptotically stable periodic solution and the average of the state variable along this solution is strictly less than the average of the carrying capacities, i.e. the varying environment has a deleterious effect on the state average. In this work we consider the case of a randomly varying environment and show that there is a unique invariant density to which all other density distributions on the state variable converge. Further, for every initial non-zero state variable and almost all random sequences of carrying capacities, the averages of the state variable along an orbit and the carrying capacities exist and the former is strictly less than the latter. 2000 MSC: 37H10; 39A11; 92D25.     

Groups associated with minimal flows

Let S be topological semigroup, we consider an appropriate semigroup compactification of S. In this paper we study the connection between subgroups of a maximal group in a minimal left ideal of , which arise as equivalence classes of some closed left congruence, and the minimal ow characterized by the left congruence. A particular topology is defined on a maximal group and it is shown that a closed subgroup under this topology is precisely the intersection of an equivalence class with the maximal group for some left congruence on .

Phase diagrams of Ising models on Husimi trees II. Pair Wand multisite interaction systems

We continue an earlier study of multisite interaction Ising spin models on Husimi trees. In particular, attention is given to systems with both a nearestneighbor pair interaction and three-site interactions. We use our calculations of the phase diagrams of the systems on Husimi trees as approximations of systems with the same interactions but on a regular lattice, e.g., the triangle lattice. Specific models where exact results are available are used as test cases. All of the work involves computation of quantities, such as the magnetization, by iterative processes. Hence we are dealing with a discrete map and for certain values of the interaction strengths we obtain for the magnetization diagram results involving period doubling, chaos, period-three windows, etc., all phenomena of recent interest in connection with dynamical systems and now associated with certain Ising spin systems.     

On the Shadowing Property and Shadowable Point of Set-valued Dynamical Systems

In this article, the authors introduce the concept of shadowable points for set-valued dynamical systems, the pointwise version of the shadowing property, and prove that a set-valued dynamical system has the shadowing property iff every point in the phase space is shadowable; every chain transitive set-valued dynamical system has either the shadowing property or no shadowable points; and for a set-valued dynamical system there exists a shadowable point iff there exists a minimal shadowable point. In the end, it is proved that a set-valued dynamical system with the shadowing property is totally transitive iff it is mixing and iff it has the specification property.
