    On the variational noncommutative Poisson geometry

    Get PDF
    We outline the notions and concepts of the calculus of variational multivectors within the Poisson formalism over the spaces of infinite jets of mappings from commutative (non)graded smooth manifolds to the factors of noncommutative associative algebras over the equivalence under cyclic permutations of the letters in the associative words. We state the basic properties of the variational Schouten bracket and derive an interesting criterion for (non)commutative differential operators to be Hamiltonian (and thus determine the (non)commutative Poisson structures). We place the noncommutative jet-bundle construction at hand in the context of the quantum string theory.Comment: Proc.

    We formulate a simple and convenient criterion under which skew-adjoint Z_2-graded total differential operators are Hamiltonian, provided that their images are closed under commutation in the Lie algebras of evolutionary vector fields on the infinite jet spaces for vector bundles over smooth manifolds.Comment: J.Phys.Conf.Ser.: Mathematical and Physical Aspects of Symmetry.

    Polarized Electric Current in Semiclassical Transport with Spin-Orbit Interaction

    Get PDF
    Semiclassical solutions of two-dimensional Schrodinger equation with spin-orbit interaction and smooth potential are considered. In the leading order, spin polarization is in-plane and follows the evolution of the electron momentum for a given subband. Out-of-plane spin polarization appears as a quantum correction, for which an explicit expression is obtained. We demonstrate how spin-polarized currents can be achieved with the help of a barrier or quantum point contact open for transmission only in the lower subband.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figure

    Global well-posedness for a slightly supercritical surface quasi-geostrophic equation

    Full text link
    We use a nonlocal maximum principle to prove the global existence of smooth solutions for a slightly supercritical surface quasi-geostrophic equation. By this we mean that the velocity field uu is obtained from the active scalar θ\theta by a Fourier multiplier with symbol ikk1m(k)i k^\perp |k|^{-1} m(k|), where mm is a smooth increasing function that grows slower than loglogk\log \log |k| as k|k|\rightarrow \infty.Comment: 11 pages, second version with slightly stronger resul

    Gardner's deformations of the N=2 supersymmetric a=4-KdV equation

    We prove that P.Mathieu's Open problem on constructing Gardner's deformation for the N=2 supersymmetric a=4-Korteweg-de Vries equation has no supersymmetry invariant solutions, whenever it is assumed that they retract to Gardner's deformation of the scalar KdV equation under the component reduction. At the same time, we propose a two-step scheme for the recursive production of the integrals of motion for the N=2, a=4-SKdV. First, we find a new Gardner's deformation of the Kaup-Boussinesq equation, which is contained in the bosonic limit of the super-hierarchy. This yields the recurrence relation between the Hamiltonians of the limit, whence we determine the bosonic super-Hamiltonians of the full N=2, a=4-SKdV hierarchy. Our method is applicable towards the solution of Gardner's deformation problems for other supersymmetric KdV-type systems.Comment: Extended version of the talks given by A.V.K. at 8th International conference `Symmetry in Nonlinear Mathematical Physics' (June 20-27, 2009, Kiev, Ukraine) and 9th International workshop `Supersymmetry and Quantum Symmetries' (July 29 - August 3, 2009, JINR, Dubna, Russia); 22 page

    Global well-posedness for the critical 2D dissipative quasi-geostrophic equation

    Full text link
    We give an elementary proof of the global well-posedness for the critical 2D dissipative quasi-geostrophic equation. The argument is based on a non-local maximum principle involving appropriate moduli of continuity.Comment: 7 page
