Integrable Systems for Particles with Internal Degrees of Freedom

We show that a class of models for particles with internal degrees of freedom are integrable. These systems are basically generalizations of the models of Calogero and Sutherland. The proofs of integrability are based on a recently developed exchange operator formalism. We calculate the wave-functions for the Calogero-like models and find the ground-state wave-function for a Calogero-like model in a position dependent magnetic field. This last model might have some relevance for matrix models of open strings.Comment: 10 pages, UVA-92-04, CU-TP-56

A discrete linearizability test based on multiscale analysis

In this paper we consider the classification of dispersive linearizable partial difference equations defined on a quad-graph by the multiple scale reduction around their harmonic solution. We show that the A1, A2 and A3 linearizability conditions restrain the number of the parameters which enter into the equation. A subclass of the equations which pass the A3 C-integrability conditions can be linearized by a Möbius transformation

Exact Solution of a N-body Problem in One Dimension

Complete energy spectrum is obtained for the quantum mechanical problem of N one dimensional equal mass particles interacting via potential $$V(x_1,x_2,...,x_N) = g\sum^N_{i < j}{1\over (x_i-x_j)^2} - {\alpha\over \sqrt{\sum_{i < j} (x_i-x_j)^2}}$$ Further, it is shown that scattering configuration, characterized by initial momenta $p_i (i=1,2,...,N)$ goes over into a final configuration characterized uniquely by the final momenta $p'_i$ with $p'_i=p_{N+1-i}$.Comment: 8 pages, tex file, no figures, sign in the first term on the right hand side of eq.3 correcte

Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations and the Calogero-Sutherland-Moser integrable models with exchange terms

It is shown that from some solutions of generalized Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations one can construct eigenfunctions of the Calogero-Sutherland-Moser Hamiltonians with exchange terms, which are characterized by any given permutational symmetry under particle exchange. This generalizes some results previously derived by Matsuo and Cherednik for the ordinary Calogero-Sutherland-Moser Hamiltonians.Comment: 13 pages, LaTeX, no figures, to be published in J. Phys.

On frequencies of small oscillations of some dynamical systems associated with root systems

In the paper by F. Calogero and author [Commun. Math. Phys. 59 (1978) 109-116] the formula for frequencies of small oscillations of the Sutherland system ($A_l$ case) was found. In present note the generalization of this formula for the case of arbitrary root system is given.Comment: arxiv version is already officia

Goldfishing by gauge theory

A new solvable many-body problem of goldfish type is identified and used to revisit the connection among two different approaches to solvable dynamical systems. An isochronous variant of this model is identified and investigated. Alternative versions of these models are presented. The behavior of the alternative isochronous model near its equilibrium configurations is investigated, and a remarkable Diophantine result, as well as related Diophantine conjectures, are thereby obtained.Comment: 22 page

Upper and lower limits on the number of bound states in a central potential

In a recent paper new upper and lower limits were given, in the context of the Schr\"{o}dinger or Klein-Gordon equations, for the number $N_{0}$ of S-wave bound states possessed by a monotonically nondecreasing central potential vanishing at infinity. In this paper these results are extended to the number $N_{\ell}$ of bound states for the $\ell$-th partial wave, and results are also obtained for potentials that are not monotonic and even somewhere positive. New results are also obtained for the case treated previously, including the remarkably neat \textit{lower} limit $N_{\ell}\geq \{\{[\sigma /(2\ell+1)+1]/2\}\}$ with $V(r)| ^{1/2}]$ (valid in the Schr\"{o}dinger case, for a class of potentials that includes the monotonically nondecreasing ones), entailing the following \textit{lower} limit for the total number $N$ of bound states possessed by a monotonically nondecreasing central potential vanishing at infinity: N\geq \{\{(\sigma+1)/2\}\} {(\sigma+3)/2\} \}/2 (here the double braces denote of course the integer part).Comment: 44 pages, 5 figure
