Noncommutative Extension of AdS-CFT and Holographic Superconductors

In this Letter, we consider a Non-Commutative (NC) extension of AdS-CFT correspondence and its effects on holographic superconductors. NC corrections are incorporated via the NC generalization of Schwarzschild black hole metric in AdS with the probe limit. We study NC effects on the relations connecting the charge density and the critical temperature of the Holographic Superconductors. Furthermore, condensation operator of the superconductor has been analyzed. Our results suggest that generically, NC effects increase the critical temperature of the holographic superconductor.Comment: One figure is added, modification in formalism and noncommutative effects emergent from star product has been removed. Results altered but main conclusions remain unchanged. To appear in Phys.Lett.

Soliton solutions, Liouville integrability and gauge equivalence of Sasa Satsuma equation

Exact integrability of the Sasa Satsuma eqation (SSE) in the Liouville sense is established by showing the existence of an infinite set of conservation laws. The explicit form of the conserved quantities in term of the fields are obtained by solving the Riccati equation for the associated 3x3 Lax operator. The soliton solutions in particular, one and two soliton solutions, are constructed by the Hirota's bilinear method. The one soliton solutions is also compared with that found through the inverse scattering method. The gauge equivalence of the SSE with a generalized Landau Lifshitz equation is established with the explicit construction oComment: 14 pages, to be published in J. Math. Phys. April-May, 199

Effects of a Maximal Energy Scale in Thermodynamics for Photon Gas and Construction of Path Integral

In this article, we discuss some well-known theoretical models where an observer-independent energy scale or a length scale is present. The presence of this invariant scale necessarily deforms the Lorentz symmetry. We study different aspects and features of such theories about how modifications arise due to this cutoff scale. First we study the formulation of energy-momentum tensor for a perfect fluid in doubly special relativity (DSR), where an energy scale is present. Then we go on to study modifications in thermodynamic properties of photon gas in DSR. Finally we discuss some models with generalized uncertainty principle (GUP).Comment: This is a review article based on our works arXiv:1002.0192, arXiv:0908.0413, arXiv:1205.3919; v2: text overlap with gr-qc/0207085 remove

Mueller matrix polarimetry of plasmon resonant silver nano-rods: biomedical prospects

Fundamental understanding of the light-matter interaction in the context of nano-particles is immensely bene- fited by the study of geometry dependent tunable Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance (LSPR) and has been demonstrated to have potential applications in various areas of science. The polarization characteristics of LSPR in addition to spectroscopic tuning can be suitably exploited in such systems as contrast enhancement mech- anisms and control parameters. Such polarization characteristics like diattenuation and retardance have been studied here using a novel combination of Muller-matrix polarimetry with the T-matrix matrix approach for silver nano-rods to show unprecedented control and sensitivity to local refractive index variations. The study carried out over various aspect ratios for a constant equal volume sphere radius shows the presence of longitu- dinal (dipolar and quadrupolar) and transverse (dipolar) resonances; arising due to differential contribution of polarizabilities in two directions. The overlap regions of these resonances and the resonances themselves exhibit enhanced retardance and diattenuation respectively. The spectral and amplitude tunability of these polarimetric parameters through the aspect ratios to span from the minimum to maximum ([0, 1] in the case of diattenuation and [0, {\pi}] in the case of retardance) presents a novel result that could be used to tailor systems for study of biological media. On the other hand, the high sensitivity of diattenuation dip (caused by equal contribution of polarizabilities) could be possibly used for medium characterization and bio-sensing or bio-imaging studies.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, Proceedings of the Saratov Fall Meeting, 201

Equity divestment and profit rate performance for sustainable development: a study of central public sector enterprises in India

Disinvestment can be described as a way of action whereby the Government withdraws its equity capital either in part or in full in public sector enterprises. From 1991-92, the Government of India undertake the process of divesting its equity shares in CPSEs. The present study has inspected the impact of equity divestment on profit rate performance in terms of ROCE of the CPSEs in India during the period 1998-99 to 2017-18. The study concluded that CPSEs have a proficient negative impact of equity divestment on their overall profit rate performance during the study period. However, the CPSEs have been able to sustain satisfactory average ROCE in the competitive market economy. Key Words: Equity Divestment, Profit Rate, CPSEs, ROCE
