Modelling of flyback converter using state space averaging technique
In 1960s demand made by space programs led to the development of power supplies that are highly reliable, efficient, light weight and small in size. The innovative ideas of the engineer's usher in the era of modern power electronics and switch mode power supplies came into existence. Design and optimization of dc-dc converter which offers high efficiency, small converters with isolation transformers can have multiple outputs of various magnitudes and polarities. The regulated power supply of this type has a wide application such as digital systems, in TVs instrumentation system, in industry automation etc., where in a low voltage, high current power supply with low output ripple and fast transient response are essential. This paper gives the methodology to model flyback converter (24V dc - 5V dc) operating under continuous conduction mode by using state space averaging technique which linearizes the system and simplifies the designing procedure
K-matrices for non-abelian quantum Hall states
Two fundamental aspects of so-called non-abelian quantum Hall states (the
q-pfaffian states and more general) are a (generalized) pairing of the
participating electrons and the non-abelian statistics of the quasi-hole
excitations. In this paper, we show that these two aspects are linked by a
duality relation, which can be made manifest by considering the K-matrices that
describe the exclusion statistics of the fundamental excitations in these
systems.Comment: LaTeX, 12 page
On the Beta Function for Anisotropic Current Interactions in 2D
By making use of current-algebra Ward identities we study renormalization of
general anisotropic current-current interactions in 2D. We obtain a set of
algebraic conditions that ensure the renormalizability of the theory to all
orders. In a certain minimal prescription we compute the beta function to all
orders.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figures. v2: References added and typos corrected; v3:

Singular Density of States of Disordered Dirac Fermions in the Chiral Models
The Dirac fermion in the random chiral models is studied which includes the
random gauge field model and the random hopping model. We focus on a connection
between continuum and lattice models to give a clear perspective for the random
chiral models. Two distinct structures of density of states (DoS) around zero
energy, one is a power-law dependence on energy in the intermediate energy
range and the other is a diverging one at zero energy, are revealed by an
extensive numerical study for large systems up to . For the
random hopping model, our finding of the diverging DoS within very narrow
energy range reconciles previous inconsistencies between the lattice and the
continuum models.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
Quasi-Spin-Charge Separation and the Spin Quantum Hall Effect
We use quantum field theory methods to study the network model for the spin
quantum hall transition. When the couplings are fine tuned in a certain way,
the spin and charge degrees of freedom, corresponding to the supercurrent
algebras su(2) and osp(2|2) respectively, decouple in the renormalization group
flow. The infrared fixed point of this simpler theory is the coset
osp(4|4)/su(2) which is closely related to the current algebra osp(2|2) but not
identical. Some critical exponents are computed and shown to agree with the
recent predictions based on percolation.Comment: 20 pages, two figures, Some subtleties in implementing the coset are
pointed out, so that the resulting fixed point theory is not precisely the
osp(2|2) current algebra. This modifies the comparison with percolatio
Spectral Statistics in Chiral-Orthogonal Disordered Systems
We describe the singularities in the averaged density of states and the
corresponding statistics of the energy levels in two- (2D) and
three-dimensional (3D) chiral symmetric and time-reversal invariant disordered
systems, realized in bipartite lattices with real off-diagonal disorder. For
off-diagonal disorder of zero mean we obtain a singular density of states in 2D
which becomes much less pronounced in 3D, while the level-statistics can be
described by semi-Poisson distribution with mostly critical fractal states in
2D and Wigner surmise with mostly delocalized states in 3D. For logarithmic
off-diagonal disorder of large strength we find indistinguishable behavior from
ordinary disorder with strong localization in any dimension but in addition
one-dimensional Dyson-like asymptotic spectral singularities. The
off-diagonal disorder is also shown to enhance the propagation of two
interacting particles similarly to systems with diagonal disorder. Although
disordered models with chiral symmetry differ from non-chiral ones due to the
presence of spectral singularities, both share the same qualitative
localization properties except at the chiral symmetry point E=0 which is
critical.Comment: 13 pages, Revtex file, 8 postscript files. It will appear in the
special edition of J. Phys. A for Random Matrix Theor
Particle-hole symmetric localization in two dimensions
We revisit two-dimensional particle-hole symmetric sublattice localization
problem, focusing on the origin of the observed singularities in the density of
states at the band center E=0. The most general such system [R. Gade,
Nucl. Phys. B {\bf 398}, 499 (1993)] exhibits critical behavior and has
that diverges stronger than any integrable power-law, while the
special {\it random vector potential model} of Ludwiget al [Phys. Rev. B {\bf
50}, 7526 (1994)] has instead a power-law density of states with a continuously
varying dynamical exponent. We show that the latter model undergoes a dynamical
transition with increasing disorder--this transition is a counterpart of the
static transition known to occur in this system; in the strong-disorder regime,
we identify the low-energy states of this model with the local extrema of the
defining two-dimensional Gaussian random surface. Furthermore, combining this
``surface fluctuation'' mechanism with a renormalization group treatment of a
related vortex glass problem leads us to argue that the asymptotic low
behavior of the density of states in the {\it general} case is , different from earlier prediction of Gade. We also
study the localized phases of such particle-hole symmetric systems and identify
a Griffiths ``string'' mechanism that generates singular power-law
contributions to the low-energy density of states in this case.Comment: 18 pages (two-column PRB format), 10 eps figures include
Separation of spin and charge in paired spin-singlet quantum Hall states
We propose a series of paired spin-singlet quantum Hall states, which exhibit
a separation of spin and charge degrees of freedom. The fundamental excitations
over these states, which have filling fraction \nu=2/(2m+1) with m an odd
integer, are spinons (spin-1/2 and charge zero) or fractional holons (charge
+/- 1/(2m+1) and spin zero). The braid statistics of these excitations are
non-abelian. The mechanism for the separation of spin and charge in these
states is topological: spin and charge excitations are liberated by binding to
a vortex in a p-wave pairing condensate. We briefly discuss related, abelian
spin-singlet states and possible transitions.Comment: 4 pages, uses revtex
