Universal Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid phases in one-dimensional strongly attractive SU(N) fermionic cold atoms
A simple set of algebraic equations is derived for the exact low-temperature
thermodynamics of one-dimensional multi-component strongly attractive fermionic
atoms with enlarged SU(N) spin symmetry and Zeeman splitting. Universal
multi-component Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid (TLL) phases are thus determined. For
linear Zeeman splitting, the physics of the gapless phase at low temperatures
belongs to the universality class of a two-component asymmetric TLL
corresponding to spin-neutral N-atom composites and spin-(N-1)/2 single atoms.
The equation of states is also obtained to open up the study of multi-component
TLL phases in 1D systems of N-component Fermi gases with population imbalance.Comment: 12 pages, 3 figure
Incorporating residual temperature and specific humidity in predicting weather-dependent warm-season electricity consumption

Any further distribution of this work must maintain attribution to the author(s) and the title of the work, journal citation and DOI.Climate warming and increasing variability challenges the electricity supply in warm seasons. A good quantitative representation of the relationship between warm-season electricity consumption and weather condition provides necessary information for long-term electricity planning and short-term electricity management. In this study, an extended version of cooling degree days (ECDD) is proposed for better characterisation of this relationship. The ECDD includes temperature, residual temperature and specific humidity effects. The residual temperature is introduced for the first time to reflect the building thermal inertia effect on electricity consumption. The study is based on the electricity consumption data of four multiple-street city blocks and three office buildings.
It is found that the residual temperature effect is about 20% of the current-day temperature effect at the block scale, and increases with a large variation at the building scale. Investigation of this residual temperature effect provides insight to the influence of building designs and structures on electricity consumption. The specific humidity effect appears to be more important at the building scale than at the block scale. A building with high energy performance does not necessarily have low specific humidity dependence. The new ECDD better reflects the weather dependence of electricity consumption than the conventional CDD method
Singularity structure of the pi N scattering amplitude in a meson-exchange model up to energies W < 2.0 GeV
Within the previously developed Dubna-Mainz-Taipei meson-exchange model, the
singularity structure of the pi N scattering amplitudes has been investigated.
For all partial waves up to F waves and c.m. energies up to W = 2 GeV, the
T-matrix poles have been calculated by three different techniques: analytic
continuation into the complex energy plane, speed-plot and the regularization
method. For all 4-star resonances, we find a perfect agreement between the
analytic continuation and the regularization method. We also find resonance
poles for resonances that are not so well established, but in these cases the
pole positions and residues obtained by analytic continuation can substantially
differ from the results predicted by the speed-plot and regularization methods.Comment: 21 pages, 4 figures, 4 table
Regularity of Kobayashi metric
We review some recent results on existence and regularity of Monge-Amp\`ere
exhaustions on the smoothly bounded strongly pseudoconvex domains, which admit
at least one such exhaustion of sufficiently high regularity. A main
consequence of our results is the fact that the Kobayashi pseudo-metric k on an
appropriare open subset of each of the above domains is actually a smooth
Finsler metric. The class of domains to which our result apply is very large.
It includes for instance all smoothly bounded strongly pseudoconvex complete
circular domains and all their sufficiently small deformations.Comment: 14 pages, 8 figures - The previously announced main result had a gap.

Universal local pair correlations of Lieb-Liniger bosons at quantum criticality
The one-dimensional Lieb-Liniger Bose gas is a prototypical many-body system
featuring universal Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid (TLL) physics and free fermion
quantum criticality. We analytically calculate finite temperature local pair
correlations for the strong coupling Bose gas at quantum criticality using the
polylog function in the framework of the Yang-Yang thermodynamic equations. We
show that the local pair correlation has the universal value in the quantum critical regime, the TLL phase and the
quasi-classical region, where is the pressure per unit length rescaled by
the interaction energy with interaction
strength and linear density . This suggests the possibility to test
finite temperature local pair correlations for the TLL in the relativistic
dispersion regime and to probe quantum criticality with the local correlations
beyond the TLL phase. Furthermore, thermodynamic properties at high
temperatures are obtained by both high temperature and virial expansion of the
Yang-Yang thermodynamic equation.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, additional text and reference
Exactly solvable models and ultracold Fermi gases
Exactly solvable models of ultracold Fermi gases are reviewed via their
thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz solution. Analytical and numerical results are
obtained for the thermodynamics and ground state properties of two- and
three-component one-dimensional attractive fermions with population imbalance.
New results for the universal finite temperature corrections are given for the
two-component model. For the three-component model, numerical solution of the
dressed energy equations confirm that the analytical expressions for the
critical fields and the resulting phase diagrams at zero temperature are highly
accurate in the strong coupling regime. The results provide a precise
description of the quantum phases and universal thermodynamics which are
applicable to experiments with cold fermionic atoms confined to one-dimensional
tubes.Comment: based on an invited talk at Statphys24, Cairns (Australia) 2010. 16

The Heine-Stieltjes correspondence and the polynomial approach to the standard pairing problem
A new approach for solving the Bethe ansatz (Gaudin-Richardson) equations of
the standard pairing problem is established based on the Heine-Stieltjes
correspondence. For pairs of valence nucleons on different
single-particle levels, it is found that solutions of the Bethe ansatz
equations can be obtained from one (k+1)x(k+1) and one (n-1)x(k+1) matrices,
which are associated with the extended Heine-Stieltjes and Van Vleck
polynomials, respectively. Since the coefficients in these polynomials are free
from divergence with variations in contrast to the original Bethe ansatz
equations, the approach thus provides with a new efficient and systematic way
to solve the problem, which, by extension, can also be used to solve a large
class of Gaudin-type quantum many-body problems and to establish a new
efficient angular momentum projection method for multi-particle systems.Comment: ReVTeX, 4 pages, no figur
Vertical Structure of Stationary Accretion Disks with a Large-Scale Magnetic Field
In earlier works we pointed out that the disk's surface layers are
non-turbulent and thus highly conducting (or non-diffusive) because the
hydrodynamic and/or magnetorotational (MRI) instabilities are suppressed high
in the disk where the magnetic and radiation pressures are larger than the
plasma thermal pressure. Here, we calculate the vertical profiles of the {\it
stationary} accretion flows (with radial and azimuthal components), and the
profiles of the large-scale, magnetic field taking into account the turbulent
viscosity and diffusivity and the fact that the turbulence vanishes at the
surface of the disk.
Also, here we require that the radial accretion speed be zero at the disk's
surface and we assume that the ratio of the turbulent viscosity to the
turbulent magnetic diffusivity is of order unity. Thus at the disk's surface
there are three boundary conditions. As a result, for a fixed dimensionless
viscosity -value, we find that there is a definite relation between the
ratio of the accretion power going into magnetic disk winds to the
viscous power dissipation and the midplane plasma-, which is the ratio
of the plasma to magnetic pressure in the disk. For a specific disk model with
of order unity we find that the critical value required for a
stationary solution is , where the disk's
half thickness. For weaker magnetic fields, , we argue that
the poloidal field will advect outward while for it will
advect inward. Alternatively, if the disk wind is negligible (), there are stationary solutions with .Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
