Dunajski generalization of the second heavenly equation: dressing method and the hierarchy
Dunajski generalization of the second heavenly equation is studied. A
dressing scheme applicable to Dunajski equation is developed, an example of
constructing solutions in terms of implicit functions is considered. Dunajski
equation hierarchy is described, its Lax-Sato form is presented. Dunajsky
equation hierarchy is characterized by conservation of three-dimensional volume
form, in which a spectral variable is taken into account.Comment: 13 page
Solutions for real dispersionless Veselov-Novikov hierarchy
We investigate the dispersionless Veselov-Novikov (dVN) equation based on the
framework of dispersionless two-component BKP hierarchy. Symmetry constraints
for real dVN system are considered. It is shown that under symmetry reductions,
the conserved densities are therefore related to the associated Faber
polynomials and can be solved recursively. Moreover, the method of hodograph
transformation as well as the expressions of Faber polynomials are used to find
exact real solutions of the dVN hierarchy.Comment: 14 page
Lattice and q-difference Darboux-Zakharov-Manakov systems via -dressing method
A general scheme is proposed for introduction of lattice and q-difference
variables to integrable hierarchies in frame of -dressing
method . Using this scheme, lattice and q-difference Darboux-Zakharov-Manakov
systems of equations are derived. Darboux, B\"acklund and Combescure
transformations and exact solutions for these systems are studied.Comment: 8 pages, LaTeX, to be published in J Phys A, Letters
New Perturbation Theory for Nonstationary Anharmonic Oscillator
The new perturbation theory for the problem of nonstationary anharmonic
oscillator with polynomial nonstationary perturbation is proposed. As a zero
order approximation the exact wave function of harmonic oscillator with
variable frequency in external field is used. Based on some intrinsic
properties of unperturbed wave function the variational-iterational method is
proposed, that make it possible to correct both the amplitude and the phase of
wave function. As an application the first order correction are proposed both
for wave function and S-matrix elements for asymmetric perturbation potential
of type The transition amplitude
''ground state - ground state'' is analyzed in detail
depending on perturbation parameter (including strong coupling
region ) and one-dimensional refraction coefficient .Comment: LaTeX, 13 page
Non-Linear Evolution Equations with Non-Analytic Dispersion Relations in 2+1 Dimensions. Bilocal Approach
A method is proposed of obtaining (2+1)-dimensional non- linear equations
with non-analytic dispersion relations. Bilocal formalism is shown to make it
possible to represent these equations in a form close to that for their
counterparts in 1+1 dimensions.Comment: 13 pages, to be published in J. Phys.
Thermal X-rays from Millisecond Pulsars: Constraining the Fundamental Properties of Neutron Stars
Abridged) We model the X-ray properties of millisecond pulsars (MSPs) by
considering hot spot emission from a weakly magnetized rotating neutron star
(NS) covered by an optically-thick hydrogen atmosphere. We investigate the
limitations of using the thermal X-ray pulse profiles of MSPs to constrain the
mass-to-radius () ratio of the underlying NS. The accuracy is strongly
dependent on the viewing angle and magnetic inclination. For certain systems,
the accuracy is ultimately limited only by photon statistics implying that
future X-ray observatories could, in principle, achieve constraints on
and hence the NS equation of state to better than 5%. We demonstrate that
valuable information regarding the basic properties of the NS can be extracted
even from X-ray data of fairly limited photon statistics through modeling of
archival spectroscopic and timing observations of the nearby isolated PSRs
J0030+0451 and J2124--3358. The X-ray emission from these pulsars is consistent
with the presence of a hydrogen atmosphere and a dipolar magnetic field
configuration, in agreement with previous findings for PSR J0437--4715. For
both MSPs, the favorable geometry allows us to place interesting limits on the
allowed of NSs. Assuming 1.4 M, the stellar radius is
constrained to be km and km (68% confidence) for PSRs
J0030+0451 and J2124--3358, respectively. We explore the prospects of using
future observatories such as \textit{Constellation-X} and \textit{XEUS} to
conduct blind X-ray timing searches for MSPs not detectable at radio
wavelengths due to unfavorable viewing geometry. Using the observational
constraints on the pulsar obliquities we are also able to place strong
constraints on the magnetic field evolution model proposed by Ruderman.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figures, published in the Astrophysical Journal (Volume

Statistical Estimation of Quantum Tomography Protocols Quality
A novel operational method for estimating the efficiency of quantum state
tomography protocols is suggested. It is based on a-priori estimation of the
quality of an arbitrary protocol by means of universal asymptotic fidelity
distribution and condition number, which takes minimal value for better
protocol. We prove the adequacy of the method both with numerical modeling and
through the experimental realization of several practically important protocols
of quantum state tomography
Ground states of Heisenberg evolution operator in discrete three-dimensional space-time and quantum discrete BKP equations
In this paper we consider three-dimensional quantum q-oscillator field theory
without spectral parameters. We construct an essentially big set of eigenstates
of evolution with unity eigenvalue of discrete time evolution operator. All
these eigenstates belong to a subspace of total Hilbert space where an action
of evolution operator can be identified with quantized discrete BKP equations
(synonym Miwa equations). The key ingredients of our construction are specific
eigenstates of a single three-dimensional R-matrix. These eigenstates are
boundary states for hidden three-dimensional structures of U_q(B_n^1) and
U_q(D_n^1)$.Comment: 13 page
IR spectral analysis for the diagnostics of crust earthquake precursors
Some possible physical processes are analysed that cause, under the condition of additional ionisation in a pre-breakdown electric field, emissions in the infrared (IR) interval. The atmospheric transparency region of the IR spectrum at wavelengths of 7–15 μm is taken into account. This transparency region corresponds to spectral lines of small atmospheric constituents like CH<sub>4</sub>, CO<sub>2</sub>, N<sub>2</sub>O, NO<sub>2</sub>, NO, and O<sub>3</sub>. The possible intensities of the IR emissions observable in laboratories and in nature are estimated. The acceleration process of the electrons in the pre-breakdown electrical field before its adhesion to the molecules is analyzed. For daytime conditions, modifications of the adsorption spectra of the scattered solar emissions are studied; for nighttime, variations of emission spectra may be used for the analysis
Polarization ququarts
We discuss the concept of polarization states of four-dimensional quantum
systems based on frequency non-degenerate biphoton field. Several quantum
tomography protocols were developed and implemented for measurement of an
arbitrary state of ququart. A simple method that does not rely on
interferometric technique is used to generate and measure the sequence of
states that can be used for quantum communication purposes.Comment: 13 pages, 10 figure
