Radiative processes as a condensation phenomenon and the physical meaning of deformed canonical structures
Working with well known models in we discuss the physics behind the
deformation of the canonical structure of these theories. A new deformation is
constructed linking the massless scalar field theory with the self-dual theory.
This is the exact dual of the known deformation connecting the Maxwell theory
with the Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory. Duality is used to establish a web of
relations between the mentioned theories and a physical picture of the
deformation procedure is suggested.Comment: revtex4 file, 16 page
Non-Unitary and Unitary Transitions in Generalized Quantum Mechanics, New Small Parameter and Information Problem Solving
Quantum Mechanics of the Early Universe is considered as deformation of a
well-known Quantum Mechanics. Similar to previous works of the author, the
principal approach is based on deformation of the density matrix with
concurrent development of the wave function deformation in the respective
Schr{\"o}dinger picture, the associated deformation parameter being interpreted
as a new small parameter. It is demonstrated that the existence of black holes
in the suggested approach in the end twice causes nonunitary transitions
resulting in the unitarity. In parallel this problem is considered in other
terms: entropy density, Heisenberg algebra deformation terms, respective
deformations of Statistical Mechanics, - all showing the identity of the basic
results. From this an explicit solution for Hawking's informaion paradox has
been derived.Comment: 18 page
Collective Modes in Light Nuclei from First Principles
Results for ab initio no-core shell model calculations in a symmetry-adapted
SU(3)-based coupling scheme demonstrate that collective modes in light nuclei
emerge from first principles. The low-lying states of 6Li, 8Be, and 6He are
shown to exhibit orderly patterns that favor spatial configurations with strong
quadrupole deformation and complementary low intrinsic spin values, a picture
that is consistent with the nuclear symplectic model. The results also suggest
a pragmatic path forward to accommodate deformation-driven collective features
in ab initio analyses when they dominate the nuclear landscape.Comment: 5 pages 3 figures, accepted to Physical Review Letter
Long-time stress relaxation of filled amorphous networks under uniaxial tension: The dynamic constrained junction model
The dynamic constrained junction model, based on the equilibrium theory of rubber elasticity, is applied to study the effects of fillers on the relaxation of stress in uniaxially deformed rubbers. Only low degrees of reinforcement are considered where complications such as filler-filler interactions are not pronounced. The proposed model is based on a purely molecular picture of the network and attempts to explain the molecular origins of the deformation and time dependence of stress in filled rubbers. Comparison with experimental data on filled (poly) isoprene networks showed that the deformation and time dependence of lightly filled samples can be predicted satisfactorily by the model
Correlations in STAR: interferometry and event structure
STAR observes a complex picture of RHIC collisions where correlation effects
of different origins -- initial state geometry, semi-hard scattering,
hadronization, as well as final state interactions such as quantum intensity
interference -- coexist. Presenting the measurements of flow, mini-jet
deformation, modified hadronization, and the Hanbury Brown and Twiss effect, we
trace the history of the system from the initial to the final state. The
resulting picture is discussed in the context of identifying the relevant
degrees of freedom and the likely equilibration mechanism.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, plenary talk at the 5th International Conference

Exactly Solvable Quantum Mechanics
A comprehensive review of exactly solvable quantum mechanics is presented
with the emphasis of the recently discovered multi-indexed orthogonal
polynomials.
The main subjects to be discussed are the factorised Hamiltonians, the
general structure of the solution spaces of the Schroedinger equation (Crum's
theorem and its modifications), the shape invariance, the exact solvability in
the Schroedinger picture as well as in the Heisenberg picture, the
creation/annihilation operators and the dynamical symmetry algebras, coherent
states, various deformation schemes (multiple Darboux transformations) and the
infinite families of multi-indexed orthogonal polynomials, the exceptional
orthogonal polynomials, and deformed exactly solvable scattering problems.Comment: LaTeX 48 pages, 5 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with
