Phase diagram of two-species Bose-Einstein condensates in an optical lattice
The exact macroscopic wave functions of two-species Bose-Einstein condensates
in an optical lattice beyond the tight-binding approximation are studied by
solving the coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations. The phase diagram for
superfluid and insulator phases of the condensates is determined analytically
according to the macroscopic wave functions of the condensates, which are seen
to be traveling matter waves.Comment: 13 pages, 2 figure

Fermi-liquid ground state in n-type copper-oxide superconductor Pr0.91Ce0.09LaCuO4-y
We report nuclear magnetic resonance studies on the low-doped n-type
copper-oxide Pr_{0.91}LaCe_{0.09}CuO_{4-y} (T_c=24 K) in the superconducting
state and in the normal state uncovered by the application of a strong magnetic
field. We find that when the superconductivity is removed, the underlying
ground state is the Fermi liquid state. This result is at variance with that
inferred from previous thermal conductivity measurement and contrast with that
in p-type copper-oxides with a similar doping level where high-T_c
superconductivity sets in within the pseudogap phase. The data in the
superconducting state are consistent with the line-nodes gap model.Comment: version to appear in Phys. Rev. Let
Contributions of Repulsive and Attractive Interactions to Nematic Order
Both repulsive and attractive molecular interactions can be used to explain
the onset of nematic order. The object of this paper is to combine these two
nematogenic molecular interactions in a unified theory. This attempt is not
unprecedented; what is perhaps new is the focus on the understanding of
nematics in the high density limit. There, the orientational probability
distribution is shown to exhibit a unique feature: it has compact support on
configuration space. As attractive interactions are turned on, the behavior
changes, and at a critical attractive interaction strength, thermotropic
behavior of the Maier-Saupe type is attained.Comment: 14 pages, 4 figure
Symbolic Dynamics Analysis of the Lorenz Equations
Recent progress of symbolic dynamics of one- and especially two-dimensional
maps has enabled us to construct symbolic dynamics for systems of ordinary
differential equations (ODEs). Numerical study under the guidance of symbolic
dynamics is capable to yield global results on chaotic and periodic regimes in
systems of dissipative ODEs which cannot be obtained neither by purely
analytical means nor by numerical work alone. By constructing symbolic dynamics
of 1D and 2D maps from the Poincare sections all unstable periodic orbits up to
a given length at a fixed parameter set may be located and all stable periodic
orbits up to a given length may be found in a wide parameter range. This
knowledge, in turn, tells much about the nature of the chaotic limits. Applied
to the Lorenz equations, this approach has led to a nomenclature, i.e.,
absolute periods and symbolic names, of stable and unstable periodic orbits for
an autonomous system. Symmetry breakings and restorations as well as
coexistence of different regimes are also analyzed by using symbolic dynamics.Comment: 35 pages, LaTeX, 13 Postscript figures, uses psfig.tex. The revision
