Dyson's Brownian Motion and Universal Dynamics of Quantum Systems
We establish a correspondence between the evolution of the distribution of
eigenvalues of a matrix subject to a random Gaussian perturbing
matrix, and a Fokker-Planck equation postulated by Dyson. Within this model, we
prove the equivalence conjectured by Altshuler et al between the space-time
correlations of the Sutherland-Calogero-Moser system in the thermodynamic limit
and a set of two-variable correlations for disordered quantum systems
calculated by them. Multiple variable correlation functions are, however, shown
to be inequivalent for the two cases.Comment: 10 pages, revte
Universal Level dynamics of Complex Systems
. We study the evolution of the distribution of eigenvalues of a
matrix subject to a random perturbation drawn from (i) a generalized Gaussian
ensemble (ii) a non-Gaussian ensemble with a measure variable under the change
of basis. It turns out that, in the case (i), a redefinition of the parameter
governing the evolution leads to a Fokker-Planck equation similar to the one
obtained when the perturbation is taken from a standard Gaussian ensemble (with
invariant measure). This equivalence can therefore help us to obtain the
correlations for various physically-significant cases modeled by generalized
Gaussian ensembles by using the already known correlations for standard
Gaussian ensembles.
For large -values, our results for both cases (i) and (ii) are similar to
those obtained for Wigner-Dyson gas as well as for the perturbation taken from
a standard Gaussian ensemble. This seems to suggest the independence of
evolution, in thermodynamic limit, from the nature of perturbation involved as
well as the initial conditions and therefore universality of dynamics of the
eigenvalues of complex systems.Comment: 11 Pages, Latex Fil
Vortex dissipation and level dynamics for the layered superconductors with impurities
We study parametric level statistics of the discretized excitation spectra
inside a moving vortex core in layered superconductors with impurities. The
universal conductivity is evaluated numerically for the various values of
rescaled vortex velocities from the clean case to the dirty limit
case. The random matrix theoretical prediction is verified numerically in the
large regime. On the contrary in the low velocity regime, we observe
which is consistent with the theoretical
result for the super-clean case, where the energy dissipation is due to the
Landau-Zener transition which takes place at the points called ``avoided
crossing''.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figures, REVTeX3.
Magnetotunneling spectroscopy of mesoscopic correlations in two-dimensional electron systems
An approach to experimentally exploring electronic correlation functions in
mesoscopic regimes is proposed. The idea is to monitor the mesoscopic
fluctuations of a tunneling current flowing between the two layers of a
semiconductor double-quantum-well structure. From the dependence of these
fluctuations on external parameters, such as in-plane or perpendicular magnetic
fields, external bias voltages, etc., the temporal and spatial dependence of
various prominent correlation functions of mesoscopic physics can be
determined. Due to the absence of spatially localized external probes, the
method provides a way to explore the interplay of interaction and localization
effects in two-dimensional systems within a relatively unperturbed environment.
We describe the theoretical background of the approach and quantitatively
discuss the behavior of the current fluctuations in diffusive and ergodic
regimes. The influence of both various interaction mechanisms and localization
effects on the current is discussed. Finally a proposal is made on how, at
least in principle, the method may be used to experimentally determine the
relevant critical exponents of localization-delocalization transitions.Comment: 15 pages, 3 figures include
Condensation and Lasing of Microcavity Polaritons: Comparison between two Models
Condensation of microcavity polaritons and the substantial influence of
pair-breaking disorder and decoherence leading to a laser regime has been
recently considered using two different models: a model for direct two band
excitons in a disordered quantum well coupled to light and a model where the
cavity mode couples instead to a medium of localised excitons, represented by
two-level oscillators in the presence of dephasing processes. Even if
complementary from the point of view of assumptions, the models share most of
the main conclusions and show similar phase diagrams. The issue whether
excitons are propagating or localised seems secondary for the polariton
condensation and the way in which pair-breaking disorder and decoherence
processes influence the condensation and drive the microcavity into a lasing
regime is, within the approximations used in each model, generic. The reasons
for the similarities between the two physical situations are analysed and
explained.Comment: Proceeding of the First International Conference on Spontaneous

Thermodynamics of an one-dimensional ideal gas with fractional exclusion statistics
We show that the particles in the Calogero-Sutherland Model obey fractional
exclusion statistics as defined by Haldane. We construct anyon number densities
and derive the energy distribution function. We show that the partition
function factorizes in the form characteristic of an ideal gas. The virial
expansion is exactly computable and interestingly it is only the second virial
coefficient that encodes the statistics information.Comment: 10pp, REVTE
Universal Correlations of Coulomb Blockade Conductance Peaks and the Rotation Scaling in Quantum Dots
We show that the parametric correlations of the conductance peak amplitudes
of a chaotic or weakly disordered quantum dot in the Coulomb blockade regime
become universal upon an appropriate scaling of the parameter. We compute the
universal forms of this correlator for both cases of conserved and broken time
reversal symmetry. For a symmetric dot the correlator is independent of the
details in each lead such as the number of channels and their correlation. We
derive a new scaling, which we call the rotation scaling, that can be computed
directly from the dot's eigenfunction rotation rate or alternatively from the
conductance peak heights, and therefore does not require knowledge of the
spectrum of the dot. The relation of the rotation scaling to the level velocity
scaling is discussed. The exact analytic form of the conductance peak
correlator is derived at short distances. We also calculate the universal
distributions of the average level width velocity for various values of the
scaled parameter. The universality is illustrated in an Anderson model of a
disordered dot.Comment: 35 pages, RevTex, 6 Postscript figure
A lecture on the Calogero-Sutherland models
In these lectures, I review some recent results on the Calogero-Sutherland
model and the Haldane Shastry-chain. The list of topics I cover are the
following: 1) The Calogero-Sutherland Hamiltonian and fractional statistics.
The form factor of the density operator. 2) The Dunkl operators and their
relations with monodromy matrices, Yangians and affine-Hecke algebras. 3) The
Haldane-Shastry chain in connection with the Calogero-Sutherland Hamiltonian at
a specific coupling constant.Comment: (2 references added, small modifications
Universality of Parametric Spectral Correlations: Local versus Extended Perturbing Potentials
We explore the influence of an arbitrary external potential perturbation V on
the spectral properties of a weakly disordered conductor. In the framework of a
statistical field theory of a nonlinear sigma-model type we find, depending on
the range and the profile of the external perturbation, two qualitatively
different universal regimes of parametric spectral statistics (i.e.
cross-correlations between the spectra of Hamiltonians H and H+V). We identify
the translational invariance of the correlations in the space of Hamiltonians
as the key indicator of universality, and find the connection between the
coordinate system in this space which makes the translational invariance
manifest, and the physically measurable properties of the system. In
particular, in the case of localized perturbations, the latter turn out to be
the eigenphases of the scattering matrix for scattering off the perturbing
potential V. They also have a purely statistical interpretation in terms of the
moments of the level velocity distribution. Finally, on the basis of this
analysis, a set of results obtained recently by the authors using random matrix
theory methods is shown to be applicable to a much wider class of disordered
and chaotic structures.Comment: 16 pages, 7 eps figures (minor changes and reference [17] added
Even-odd correlations in capacitance fluctuations of quantum dots
We investigate effects of short range interactions on the addition spectra of
quantum dots using a disordered Hubbard model. A correlation function \cS(q) is
defined on the inverse compressibility versus filling data, and computed
numerically for small lattices. Two regimes of interaction strength are
identified: the even/odd fluctuations regime typical of Fermi liquid ground
states, and a regime of structureless \cS(q) at strong interactions. We
propose to understand the latter regime in terms of magnetically correlated
localized spins.Comment: 3 pages, Revtex, Without figure
