Study reveals effect of aluminum on saturation moment of Fe-Ni alloys
Study of saturation magnetization, important in the investigation of the electronic structure of alloys, reveals the effect of aluminum on the saturation moments of iron-nickel alloys. The saturation magnetizations were extrapolated to the absolute zero of temperature for calculating average atomic moments
Mean field limit for bosons and propagation of Wigner measures
We consider the N-body Schr\"{o}dinger dynamics of bosons in the mean field
limit with a bounded pair-interaction potential. According to the previous work
\cite{AmNi}, the mean field limit is translated into a semiclassical problem
with a small parameter , after introducing an
-dependent bosonic quantization. The limit is expressed as a
push-forward by a nonlinear flow (e.g. Hartree) of the associated Wigner
measures. These object and their basic properties were introduced in
\cite{AmNi} in the infinite dimensional setting. The additional result
presented here states that the transport by the nonlinear flow holds for rather
general class of quantum states in their mean field limit.Comment: 10 page
On the analyticity and Gevrey class regularity up to the boundary for the Euler Equations
We consider the Euler equations in a three-dimensional Gevrey-class bounded
domain. Using Lagrangian coordinates we obtain the Gevrey-class persistence of
the solution, up to the boundary, with an explicit estimate on the rate of
decay of the Gevrey-class regularity radius
Semiclassical Theory of Time-Reversal Focusing
Time reversal mirrors have been successfully implemented for various kinds of
waves propagating in complex media. In particular, acoustic waves in chaotic
cavities exhibit a refocalization that is extremely robust against external
perturbations or the partial use of the available information. We develop a
semiclassical approach in order to quantitatively describe the refocusing
signal resulting from an initially localized wave-packet. The time-dependent
reconstructed signal grows linearly with the temporal window of injection, in
agreement with the acoustic experiments, and reaches the same spatial extension
of the original wave-packet. We explain the crucial role played by the chaotic
dynamics for the reconstruction of the signal and its stability against
external perturbations.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figur
Inviscid Large deviation principle and the 2D Navier Stokes equations with a free boundary condition
Using a weak convergence approach, we prove a LPD for the solution of 2D
stochastic Navier Stokes equations when the viscosity converges to 0 and the
noise intensity is multiplied by the square root of the viscosity. Unlike
previous results on LDP for hydrodynamical models, the weak convergence is
proven by tightness properties of the distribution of the solution in
appropriate functional spaces
Hilbert Expansion from the Boltzmann equation to relativistic Fluids
We study the local-in-time hydrodynamic limit of the relativistic Boltzmann
equation using a Hilbert expansion. More specifically, we prove the existence
of local solutions to the relativistic Boltzmann equation that are nearby the
local relativistic Maxwellian constructed from a class of solutions to the
relativistic Euler equations that includes a large subclass of near-constant,
non-vacuum fluid states. In particular, for small Knudsen number, these
solutions to the relativistic Boltzmann equation have dynamics that are
effectively captured by corresponding solutions to the relativistic Euler
equations.Comment: 50 page
Mean-field evolution of fermions with singular interaction
We consider a system of N fermions in the mean-field regime interacting
though an inverse power law potential , for
. We prove the convergence of a solution of the many-body
Schr\"{o}dinger equation to a solution of the time-dependent Hartree-Fock
equation in the sense of reduced density matrices. We stress the dependence on
the singularity of the potential in the regularity of the initial data. The
proof is an adaptation of [22], where the case is treated.Comment: 16 page
Semiclassical Propagation of Coherent States for the Hartree equation
In this paper we consider the nonlinear Hartree equation in presence of a
given external potential, for an initial coherent state. Under suitable
smoothness assumptions, we approximate the solution in terms of a time
dependent coherent state, whose phase and amplitude can be determined by a
classical flow. The error can be estimated in by C \sqrt {\var}, \var
being the Planck constant. Finally we present a full formal asymptotic
expansion
