On the equation of the pp-adic open string for the scalar tachyon field

We study the structure of solutions of the one-dimensional non-linear pseudodifferential equation describing the dynamics of the $p$-adic open string for the scalar tachyon field $p^{\frac12\partial^2_t}\Phi=\Phi^p$. We elicit the role of real zeros of the entire function $\Phi^p(z)$ and the behaviour of solutions $\Phi(t)$ in the neighbourhood of these zeros. We point out that discontinuous solutions can appear if $p$ is even. We use the method of expanding the solution $\Phi$ and the function $\Phi^p$ in the Hermite polynomials and modified Hermite polynomials and establish a connection between the coefficients of these expansions (integral conservation laws). For $p=2$ we construct an infinite system of non-linear equations in the unknown Hermite coefficients and study its structure. We consider the 3-approximation. We indicate a connection between the problems stated and the non-linear boundary-value problem for the heat equation.Comment: AMSTeX, 26 page

Nonlinear equations for p-adic open, closed, and open-closed strings

We investigate the structure of solutions of boundary value problems for a one-dimensional nonlinear system of pseudodifferential equations describing the dynamics (rolling) of p-adic open, closed, and open-closed strings for a scalar tachyon field using the method of successive approximations. For an open-closed string, we prove that the method converges for odd values of p of the form p=4n+1 under the condition that the solution for the closed string is known. For p=2, we discuss the questions of the existence and the nonexistence of solutions of boundary value problems and indicate the possibility of discontinuous solutions appearing.Comment: 16 pages, 3 figure

On the Nonlinear Dynamical Equation in the p-adic String Theory

In this work nonlinear pseudo-differential equations with the infinite number of derivatives are studied. These equations form a new class of equations which initially appeared in p-adic string theory. These equations are of much interest in mathematical physics and its applications in particular in string theory and cosmology. In the present work a systematical mathematical investigation of the properties of these equations is performed. The main theorem of uniqueness in some algebra of tempored distributions is proved. Boundary problems for bounded solutions are studied, the existence of a space-homogenous solution for odd p is proved. For even p it is proved that there is no continuous solutions and it is pointed to the possibility of existence of discontinuous solutions. Multidimensional equation is also considered and its soliton and q-brane solutions are discussed.Comment: LaTex, 18 page

Noncommutative magnetic moment of charged particles

It has been argued, that in noncommutative field theories sizes of physical objects cannot be taken smaller than an elementary length related to noncommutativity parameters. By gauge-covariantly extending field equations of noncommutative U(1)_*-theory to the presence of external sources, we find electric and magnetic fields produces by an extended charge. We find that such a charge, apart from being an ordinary electric monopole, is also a magnetic dipole. By writing off the existing experimental clearance in the value of the lepton magnetic moments for the present effect, we get the bound on noncommutativity at the level of 10^4 TeV.Comment: 9 pages, revtex; v2: replaced to match the published versio
