Quantum Cooling Evaporation Process in Regular Black Holes

We investigate a universal behavior of thermodynamics and evaporation process for the regular black holes. We newly observe an important point where the temperature is maximum, the heat capacity is changed from negative infinity to positive infinity, and the free energy is minimum. Furthermore, this point separates the evaporation process into the early stage with negative heat capacity and the late stage with positive heat capacity. The latter represents the quantum cooling evaporation process. As a result, the whole evaporation process could be regarded as the inverse Hawking-Page phase transition.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figures, version to appear in Phys. Lett.

Exact Results for a Kondo Problem in One Dimensional t-J Model

We propose an integrable Kondo problem in a one-dimensional (1D) $t-J$ model. With the open boundary condition of the wave functions at the impurity sites, the model can be exactly solved via Bethe ansatz for a class of $J_{R,L}$ (Kondo coupling constants) and $V_{L,R}$ (impurity potentials) parametrized by a single parameter $c$. The integrable value of $J_{L,R}$ runs from negative infinity to positive infinity, which allows us to study both the ferromagnetic Kondo problem and antiferromagnetic Kondo problem in a strongly correlated electron system. Generally, there is a residual entropy for the ground state, which indicates a typical non-Fermi liquid behavior.Comment: 5 pages Revtex, no figure

p-Brane cosmology and phases of Brans-Dicke theory with matter

We study the effect of the solitonic degrees of freedom in string cosmology following the line of Rama. The gas of solitonic p-brane is treated as a perfect fluid in a Brans-Dicke type theory. In this paper, we find exact cosmological solutions for any Brans-Dicke parameter $\omega$ and for general parameter $\gamma$ of equation of state and classify the cosmology of the solutions on a parameter space of $\gamma$ and $\omega$.Comment: 26 pages, 5 figures, Contents and references added; published in Phys.
