    Klein-Gordon and Dirac particles in non-constant scalar-curvature background

    Full text link
    The Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations are considered in a semi-infinite lab (x>0x > 0) in the presence of background metrics ds2=u2(x)ημνdxμdxνds^2 =u^2(x) \eta_{\mu\nu} dx^\mu dx^\nu and ds2=dt2+u2(x)ηijdxidxjds^2=-dt^2+u^2(x)\eta_{ij}dx^i dx^j with u(x)=e±gxu(x)=e^{\pm gx}. These metrics have non-constant scalar-curvatures. Various aspects of the solutions are studied. For the first metric with u(x)=egxu(x)=e^{gx}, it is shown that the spectrums are discrete, with the ground state energy Emin2=p2c2+g2c22E^2_{min}=p^2c^2 + g^2c^2\hbar^2 for spin-0 particles. For u(x)=egxu(x)=e^{-gx}, the spectrums are found to be continuous. For the second metric with u(x)=egxu(x)=e^{-gx}, each particle, depends on its transverse-momentum, can have continuous or discrete spectrum. For Klein-Gordon particles, this threshold transverse-momentum is 3g/2\sqrt{3}g/2, while for Dirac particles it is g/2g/2. There is no solution for u(x)=egxu(x)=e^{gx} case. Some geometrical properties of these metrics are also discussed.Comment: 14 pages, LaTeX, to be published in Int. Jour. Mod. Phys.

    Exactly solvable reaction diffusion models on a Cayley tree

    Full text link
    The most general reaction-diffusion model on a Cayley tree with nearest-neighbor interactions is introduced, which can be solved exactly through the empty-interval method. The stationary solutions of such models, as well as their dynamics, are discussed. Concerning the dynamics, the spectrum of the evolution Hamiltonian is found and shown to be discrete, hence there is a finite relaxation time in the evolution of the system towards its stationary state.Comment: 9 pages, 2 figure

    A new class of integrable diffusion-reaction processes

    Full text link
    We consider a process in which there are two types of particles, A and B, on an infinite one-dimensional lattice. The particles hop to their adjacent sites, like the totally asymmetric exclusion process (ASEP), and have also the following interactions: A+B -> B+B and B+A -> B+B, all occur with equal rate. We study this process by imposing four boundary conditions on ASEP master equation. It is shown that this model is integrable, in the sense that its N-particle S-matrix is factorized into a product of two-particle S-matrices and, more importantly, the two-particle S-matrix satisfy quantum Yang-Baxter equation. Using coordinate Bethe-ansatz, the N-particle wavefunctions and the two-particle conditional probabilities are found exactly. Further, by imposing four reasonable physical conditions on two-species diffusion-reaction processes (where the most important ones are the equality of the reaction rates and the conservation of the number of particles in each reaction), we show that among the 4096 types of the interactions which have these properties and can be modeled by a master equation and an appropriate set of boundary conditions, there are only 28 independent interactions which are integrable. We find all these interactions and also their corresponding wave functions. Some of these may be new solutions of quantum Yang-Baxter equation.Comment: LaTex,16 pages, some typos are corrected, will be appeared in Phys. Rev. E (2000

    Laughlin states on the Poincare half-plane and its quantum group symmetry

    Full text link
    We find the Laughlin states of the electrons on the Poincare half-plane in different representations. In each case we show that there exist a quantum group suq(2)su_q(2) symmetry such that the Laughlin states are a representation of it. We calculate the corresponding filling factor by using the plasma analogy of the FQHE.Comment: 9 pages,Late

    Quantum Hall Effect Wave Functions as Cyclic Representations of U_q(sl(2))

    Full text link
    Quantum Hall effect wave functions corresponding to the filling factors 1/2p+1, 2/2p+1, ..., 2p/2p+1, 1, are shown to form a basis of irreducible cyclic representation of the quantum algebra U_q(sl(2)) at q^{2p+1}=1. Thus, the wave functions \Psi_{P/Q} possessing filling factors P/Q<1 where Q is odd and P, Q are relatively prime integers are classified in terms of U_q(sl(2)).Comment: Version to appear in Jour.

    Neutrino oscillation in a space-time with torsion

    Get PDF
    Using the Einstein-Cartan-Dirac theory, we study the effect of torsion on neutrino oscillation. We see that torsion cannot induce neutrino oscillation, but affects it whenever oscillation exists for other reasons. We show that the torsion effect on neutrino oscillation is as important as the neutrino mass effect, whenever the ratio of neutrino number density to neutrino energy is 1069\sim 10^{69} cm3^{-3} /eV, or the number density of the matter is 1069\sim 10^{69} cm3^{-3}.Comment: 7 pages, LaTex,Some typos corrected Journal: Int.

    Torsion Phenomenology at the LHC

    Get PDF
    We explore the potential of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) to test the dynamical torsion parameters. The form of the torsion action can be established from the requirements of consistency of effective quantum field theory. The most phenomenologically relevant part of the torsion tensor is dual to a massive axial vector field. This axial vector has geometric nature, that means it does not belong to any representation of the gauge group of the SM extension or GUT theory. At the same time, torsion should interact with all fermions, that opens the way for the phenomenological applications. We demonstrate that LHC collider can establish unique constraints on the interactions between fermions and torsion field considerably exceeding present experimental lower bounds on the torsion couplings and its mass. It is also shown how possible non-universal nature of torsion couplings due to the renormalization group running between the Planck and TeV energy scales can be tested via the combined analysis of Drell-Yan and ttˉt\bar{t} production processes

    Exact solution of a one-parameter family of asymmetric exclusion processes

    Full text link
    We define a family of asymmetric processes for particles on a one-dimensional lattice, depending on a continuous parameter λ[0,1]\lambda \in [0,1] , interpolating between the completely asymmetric processes [1] (for λ=1\lambda =1) and the n=1 drop-push models [2] (for λ=0 \lambda =0). For arbitrary \la, the model describes an exclusion process, in which a particle pushes its right neighbouring particles to the right, with rates depending on the number of these particles. Using the Bethe ansatz, we obtain the exact solution of the master equation .Comment: 14 pages, LaTe

    p-species integrable reaction-diffusion processes

    Full text link
    We consider a process in which there are p-species of particles, i.e. A_1,A_2,...,A_p, on an infinite one-dimensional lattice. Each particle AiA_i can diffuse to its right neighboring site with rate DiD_i, if this site is not already occupied. Also they have the exchange interaction A_j+A_i --> A_i+A_j with rate rij.r_{ij}. We study the range of parameters (interactions) for which the model is integrable. The wavefunctions of this multi--parameter family of integrable models are found. We also extend the 2--species model to the case in which the particles are able to diffuse to their right or left neighboring sites.Comment: 16 pages, LaTe

    Thermodynamic Properties of a Quantum Group Boson Gas GLp,q(2)GL_{p,q}(2)

    Get PDF
    An approach is proposed enabling to effectively describe the behaviour of a bosonic system. The approach uses the quantum group GLp,q(2)GL_{p,q}(2) formalism. In effect, considering a bosonic Hamiltonian in terms of the GLp,q(2)GL_{p,q}(2) generators, it is shown that its thermodynamic properties are connected to deformation parameters pp and qq. For instance, the average number of particles and the pressure have been computed. If pp is fixed to be the same value for qq, our approach coincides perfectly with some results developed recently in this subject. The ordinary results, of the present system, can be found when we take the limit p=q=1p=q=1.Comment: 13 pages, Late
