    Non-Unitary and Unitary Transitions in Generalized Quantum Mechanics, New Small Parameter and Information Problem Solving

    Get PDF
    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

    The Universe as a Nonuniform Lattice in the Finite-Dimensional Hypercube II.Simple Cases of Symmetry Breakdown and Restoration

    Get PDF
    This paper continues a study of field theories specified for the nonuniform lattice in the finite-dimensional hypercube with the use of the earlier described deformation parameters. The paper is devoted to spontaneous breakdown and restoration of symmetry in simple quantum-field theories with scalar fields. It is demonstrated that an appropriate deformation opens up new possibilities for symmetry breakdown and restoration. To illustrate, at low energies it offers high-accuracy reproducibility of the same results as with a nondeformed theory. In case of transition from low to higher energies and vice versa it gives description for new types of symmetry breakdown and restoration depending on the rate of the deformation parameter variation in time, and indicates the critical points of the previously described lattice associated with a symmetry restoration. Besides, such a deformation enables one to find important constraints on the initial model parameters having an explicit physical meaning.Comment: 9 pages,Revte

    Pure States, Mixed States and Hawking Problem in Generalized Quantum Mechanics

    Get PDF
    This paper is the continuation of a study into the information paradox problem started by the author in his earlier works. As previously, the key instrument is a deformed density matrix in quantum mechanics of the early universe. It is assumed that the latter represents quantum mechanics with fundamental length. It is demonstrated that the obtained results agree well with the canonical viewpoint that in the processes involving black holes pure states go to the mixed ones in the assumption that all measurements are performed by the observer in a well-known quantum mechanics. Also it is shown that high entropy for Planck remnants of black holes appearing in the assumption of the Generalized Uncertainty Relations may be explained within the scope of the density matrix entropy introduced by the author previously. It is noted that the suggested paradigm is consistent with the Holographic Principle. Because of this, a conjecture is made about the possibility for obtaining the Generalized Uncertainty Relations from the covariant entropy bound at high energies in the same way as R. Bousso has derived Heisenberg uncertainty principle for the flat space.Comment: 12 pages,no figures,some corrections,new reference

    Quantum Mechanics at Planck's scale and Density Matrix

    Get PDF
    In this paper Quantum Mechanics with Fundamental Length is chosen as Quantum Mechanics at Planck's scale. This is possible due to the presence in the theory of General Uncertainty Relations. Here Quantum Mechanics with Fundamental Length is obtained as a deformation of Quantum Mechanics. The distinguishing feature of the proposed approach in comparison with previous ones, lies on the fact that here density matrix subjects to deformation whereas so far commutators have been deformed. The density matrix obtained by deformation of quantum-mechanical density one is named throughout this paper density pro-matrix. Within our approach two main features of Quantum Mechanics are conserved: the probabilistic interpretation of the theory and the well-known measuring procedure corresponding to that interpretation. The proposed approach allows to describe dynamics. In particular, the explicit form of deformed Liouville's equation and the deformed Shr\"odinger's picture are given. Some implications of obtained results are discussed. In particular, the problem of singularity, the hypothesis of cosmic censorship, a possible improvement of the definition of statistical entropy and the problem of information loss in black holes are considered. It is shown that obtained results allow to deduce in a simple and natural way the Bekenstein-Hawking's formula for black hole entropy in semiclassical approximation.Comment: 18 pages,Latex,new reference

    Superaging correlation function and ergodicity breaking for Brownian motion in logarithmic potentials

    Get PDF
    We consider an overdamped Brownian particle moving in a confining asymptotically logarithmic potential, which supports a normalized Boltzmann equilibrium density. We derive analytical expressions for the two-time correlation function and the fluctuations of the time-averaged position of the particle for large but finite times. We characterize the occurrence of aging and nonergodic behavior as a function of the depth of the potential, and support our predictions with extensive Langevin simulations. While the Boltzmann measure is used to obtain stationary correlation functions, we show how the non-normalizable infinite covariant density is related to the super-aging behavior.Comment: 16 pages, 6 figure

    Chow's theorem and universal holonomic quantum computation

    Full text link
    A theorem from control theory relating the Lie algebra generated by vector fields on a manifold to the controllability of the dynamical system is shown to apply to Holonomic Quantum Computation. Conditions for deriving the holonomy algebra are presented by taking covariant derivatives of the curvature associated to a non-Abelian gauge connection. When applied to the Optical Holonomic Computer, these conditions determine that the holonomy group of the two-qubit interaction model contains SU(2)×SU(2)SU(2) \times SU(2). In particular, a universal two-qubit logic gate is attainable for this model.Comment: 13 page

    Different frequencies of RIP among early vs. late ascospores of Neurospora crassa

    Get PDF
    We have noticed that the frequency of RIP can be quite variable, even in crosses of the same strains. One possible source of variability is the time at which ascospores are harvested. We reasoned that the earliest ascospores shot from a perithecium might contain DNA that went through relatively few mitotic divisions in pre-meiosis. RIP occurs between fertilization and premeiotic DNA synthesis (Selker et al. 1987 Cell 51:741-752). Thus, early spores might have less exposure to RIP than late spores. Since all ascospores from a perithecium are thought to arise from a single fertilization event, a minimum of 7- 10 divisions are required to account for the number of ascospores normally produced (Perkins and Barry, 1977 Adv. Genet. 211:541-544). It is likely, however, that some ascospore lineages contain fewer divisions than others

    Geometric Control Over the Motion of Magnetic Domain Walls

    Get PDF
    We propose a method, which enables precise control of magnetic patterns, relying only on the fundamental properties of the wire and the choice of the path in the controlled parameter space but not on the rate of motion along this path. Possible experimental realizations of this mechanism are discussed. In particular, we show that the domain walls in magnetic nanowires can be translated by rotation of the magnetic easy axis, or by applying pulses of magnetic field directed transverse to the magnetic easy axis.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure

    On distributions of functionals of anomalous diffusion paths

    Full text link
    Functionals of Brownian motion have diverse applications in physics, mathematics, and other fields. The probability density function (PDF) of Brownian functionals satisfies the Feynman-Kac formula, which is a Schrodinger equation in imaginary time. In recent years there is a growing interest in particular functionals of non-Brownian motion, or anomalous diffusion, but no equation existed for their PDF. Here, we derive a fractional generalization of the Feynman-Kac equation for functionals of anomalous paths based on sub-diffusive continuous-time random walk. We also derive a backward equation and a generalization to Levy flights. Solutions are presented for a wide number of applications including the occupation time in half space and in an interval, the first passage time, the maximal displacement, and the hitting probability. We briefly discuss other fractional Schrodinger equations that recently appeared in the literature.Comment: 25 pages, 4 figure
