Truncated Harmonic Osillator and Parasupersymmetric Quantum Mechanics
We discuss in detail the parasupersymmetric quantum mechanics of arbitrary
order where the parasupersymmetry is between the normal bosons and those
corresponding to the truncated harmonic oscillator. We show that even though
the parasusy algebra is different from that of the usual parasusy quantum
mechanics, still the consequences of the two are identical. We further show
that the parasupersymmetric quantum mechanics of arbitrary order p can also be
rewritten in terms of p supercharges (i.e. all of which obey ).
However, the Hamiltonian cannot be expressed in a simple form in terms of the p
supercharges except in a special case. A model of conformal parasupersymmetry
is also discussed and it is shown that in this case, the p supercharges, the p
conformal supercharges along with Hamiltonian H, conformal generator K and
dilatation generator D form a closed algebra.Comment: 9 page
Exceptional orthogonal polynomials, QHJ formalism and SWKB quantization condition
We study the quantum Hamilton-Jacobi (QHJ) equation of the recently obtained
exactly solvable models, related to the newly discovered exceptional
polynomials and show that the QHJ formalism reproduces the exact eigenvalues
and the eigenfunctions. The fact that the eigenfunctions have zeros and poles
in complex locations leads to an unconventional singularity structure of the
quantum momentum function , the logarithmic derivative of the wave
function, which forms the crux of the QHJ approach to quantization. A
comparison of the singularity structure for these systems with the known
exactly solvable and quasi-exactly solvable models reveals interesting
differences. We find that the singularities of the momentum function for these
new potentials lie between the above two distinct models, sharing similarities
with both of them. This prompted us to examine the exactness of the
supersymmetric WKB (SWKB) quantization condition. The interesting singularity
structure of and of the superpotential for these models has important
consequences for the SWKB rule and in our proof of its exactness for these
quantal systems.Comment: 10 pages with 1 table,i figure. Errors rectified, manuscript

On the Representation Theory of Orthofermions and Orthosupersymmetric Realization of Parasupersymmetry and Fractional Supersymmetry
We construct a canonical irreducible representation for the orthofermion
algebra of arbitrary order, and show that every representation decomposes into
irreducible representations that are isomorphic to either the canonical
representation or the trivial representation. We use these results to show that
every orthosupersymmetric system of order has a parasupersymmetry of order
and a fractional supersymmetry of order .Comment: 13 pages, to appear in J. Phys. A: Math. Ge
On Exactness Of The Supersymmetric WKB Approximation Scheme
Exactness of the lowest order supersymmetric WKB (SWKB) quantization
condition , for certain
potentials, is examined, using complex integration technique. Comparison of the
above scheme with a similar, but {\it exact} quantization condition, , originating from the quantum Hamilton-Jacobi
formalism reveals that, the locations and the residues of the poles that
contribute to these integrals match identically, for both of these cases. As
these poles completely determine the eigenvalues in these two cases, the
exactness of the SWKB for these potentials is accounted for. Three non-exact
cases are also analysed; the origin of this non-exactness is shown to be due
the presence of additional singularities in , like branch
cuts in the plane.Comment: 11 pages, latex, 1 figure available on reques

Superposition in nonlinear wave and evolution equations
Real and bounded elliptic solutions suitable for applying the Khare-Sukhatme
superposition procedure are presented and used to generate superposition
solutions of the generalized modified Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation (gmKPE)
and the nonlinear cubic-quintic Schroedinger equation (NLCQSE).Comment: submitted to International Journal of Theoretical Physics, 23 pages,

Island diffusion on metal fcc(100) surfaces
We present Monte Carlo simulations for the size and temperature dependence of
the diffusion coefficient of adatom islands on the Cu(100) surface. We show
that the scaling exponent for the size dependence is not a constant but a
decreasing function of the island size and approaches unity for very large
islands. This is due to a crossover from periphery dominated mass transport to
a regime where vacancies diffuse inside the island. The effective scaling
exponents are in good agreement with theory and experiments.Comment: 13 pages, 2 figures, to be published in Phys. Rev. Let
Bogomol'nyi Equations of Maxwell-Chern-Simons vortices from a generalized Abelian Higgs Model
We consider a generalization of the abelian Higgs model with a Chern-Simons
term by modifying two terms of the usual Lagrangian. We multiply a dielectric
function with the Maxwell kinetic energy term and incorporate nonminimal
interaction by considering generalized covariant derivative. We show that for a
particular choice of the dielectric function this model admits both topological
as well as nontopological charged vortices satisfying Bogomol'nyi bound for
which the magnetic flux, charge and angular momentum are not quantized. However
the energy for the topolgical vortices is quantized and in each sector these
topological vortex solutions are infinitely degenerate. In the nonrelativistic
limit, this model admits static self-dual soliton solutions with nonzero finite
energy configuration. For the whole class of dielectric function for which the
nontopological vortices exists in the relativistic theory, the charge density
satisfies the same Liouville equation in the nonrelativistic limit.Comment: 30 pages(4 figures not included), RevTeX, IP/BBSR/93-6
