Non-Unitary and Unitary Transitions in Generalized Quantum Mechanics, New Small Parameter and Information Problem Solving
Quantum Mechanics of the Early Universe is considered as deformation of a
well-known Quantum Mechanics. Similar to previous works of the author, the
principal approach is based on deformation of the density matrix with
concurrent development of the wave function deformation in the respective
Schr{\"o}dinger picture, the associated deformation parameter being interpreted
as a new small parameter. It is demonstrated that the existence of black holes
in the suggested approach in the end twice causes nonunitary transitions
resulting in the unitarity. In parallel this problem is considered in other
terms: entropy density, Heisenberg algebra deformation terms, respective
deformations of Statistical Mechanics, - all showing the identity of the basic
results. From this an explicit solution for Hawking's informaion paradox has
been derived.Comment: 18 page
Instabilities of noncommutative two dimensional BF model
The noncommutative extension of two dimensional BF model is considered. It is
shown that the realization of the noncommutative map via the Groenewold-Moyal
star product leads to instabilities of the action, hence to a non
renormalizable theory.Comment: 9 page
On Consistency Of Noncommutative Chern-Simons Theory
We consider the noncommutative extension of Chern-Simons theory. We show the
the theory can be fully expanded in power series of the noncommutative
parameter theta and that no non-analytical sector exists. The theory appears to
be unstable under radiative corrections, but we show that the infinite set of
instabilities, to all orders in \hbar and in theta, is confined to a BRS exact
cocycle. We show also that the theory is anomaly free. The quantum theory
cannot be written in terms of the Groenewald-Moyal star product, and hence
doubts arise on the interpretation of the noncommutative nature of the
underlying spacetime. Nonetheless, the deformed theory is well defined as a
quantum field theory, and the beta function of the Chern-Simons coupling
constant vanishes, as in the ordinary Chern-Simons theory.Comment: 17 page
Symmetry breaking aspects of the effective Lagrangian for quantum black holes
The physical excitations entering the effective Lagrangian for quantum black
holes are related to a Goldstone boson which is present in the Rindler limit
and is due to the spontaneous breaking of the translation symmetry of the
underlying Minkowski space. This physical interpretation, which closely
parallels similar well-known results for the effective stringlike description
of flux tubes in QCD, gives a physical insight into the problem of describing
the quantum degrees of freedom of black holes. It also suggests that the
recently suggested concept of 'black hole complementarity' emerges at the
effective Lagrangian level rather than at the fundamental level.Comment: 11 pages, Latex,1 figur
Wave Packets Propagation in Quantum Gravity
Wave packet broadening in usual quantum mechanics is a consequence of
dispersion behavior of the medium which the wave propagates in it. In this
paper, we consider the problem of wave packet broadening in the framework of
Generalized Uncertainty Principle(GUP) of quantum gravity. New dispersion
relations are derived in the context of GUP and it has been shown that there
exists a gravitational induced dispersion which leads to more broadening of the
wave packets. As a result of these dispersion relations, a generalized
Klein-Gordon equation is obtained and its interpretation is given.Comment: 9 pages, no figur
A Multi Megawatt Cyclotron Complex to Search for CP Violation in the Neutrino Sector
A Multi Megawatt Cyclotron complex able to accelerate H2+ to 800 MeV/amu is
under study. It consists of an injector cyclotron able to accelerate the
injected beam up to 50 MeV/n and of a booster ring made of 8 magnetic sectors
and 8 RF cavities. The magnetic field and the forces on the superconducting
coils are evaluated using the 3-D code OPERA. The injection and extraction
trajectories are evaluated using the well tested codes developed by the MSU
group in the '80s. The advantages to accelerate H2+ are described and
preliminary evaluations on the feasibility and expected problems to build the
injector cyclotron and the ring booster are here presented.Comment: Presentation at Cyclotron'10 conference, Lanzhou, China, Sept 7, 201
Gravitational Wave Bursts from Cosmic Superstrings with Y-junctions
Cosmic superstring loops generically contain strings of different tensions
that meet at Y-junctions. These loops evolve non-periodically in time, and have
cusps and kinks that interact with the junctions. We study the effect of
junctions on the gravitational wave signal emanating from cosmic string cusps
and kinks. We find that earlier results on the strength of individual bursts
from cusps and kinks on strings without junctions remain largely unchanged, but
junctions give rise to additional contributions to the gravitational wave
signal coming from strings expanding at the speed of light at a junction and
kinks passing through a junction.Comment: 20 pages, 5 figure
Geophysical constraint on a relic background of the dilatons
According to a scenario in string cosmology, a relic background of light
dilatons can be a significant component of the dark matter in the Universe. A
new approach of searching for such a dilatonic background by observing Earth's
surface gravity was proposed in my previous work. In this paper, the concept of
the geophysical search is briefly reviewed, and the geophysical constraint on
the dilaton background is presented as a function of the strength of the
dilaton coupling, . For simplicity, I focus on massless dilatons and
assume a simple Earth model. With the current upper limit on , we obtain
the upper limit on the dimensionless energy density of the massless background,
, which is about one-order of
magnitude more stringent than the one from astrophysical observations, at the
frequency of 7 10 Hz. If the magnitude of is
experimentally found to be smaller than the current upper limit by one order of
magnitude, the geophysical upper limit on becomes less
stringent and comparable to the one obtained from the astrophysical
observations.Comment: 6 pages, Proceedings for the 8th Edoardo Amaldi Conference on

Pure States, Mixed States and Hawking Problem in Generalized Quantum Mechanics
This paper is the continuation of a study into the information paradox
problem started by the author in his earlier works. As previously, the key
instrument is a deformed density matrix in quantum mechanics of the early
universe. It is assumed that the latter represents quantum mechanics with
fundamental length. It is demonstrated that the obtained results agree well
with the canonical viewpoint that in the processes involving black holes pure
states go to the mixed ones in the assumption that all measurements are
performed by the observer in a well-known quantum mechanics. Also it is shown
that high entropy for Planck remnants of black holes appearing in the
assumption of the Generalized Uncertainty Relations may be explained within the
scope of the density matrix entropy introduced by the author previously. It is
noted that the suggested paradigm is consistent with the Holographic Principle.
Because of this, a conjecture is made about the possibility for obtaining the
Generalized Uncertainty Relations from the covariant entropy bound at high
energies in the same way as R. Bousso has derived Heisenberg uncertainty
principle for the flat space.Comment: 12 pages,no figures,some corrections,new reference
