Localization of Bose-Einstein Condensation and Disappearance of Superfluidity of Strongly Correlated Bose Fluid in a Confined Potential
We develop a Bose fluid model in a confined potential to consider the new
quantum phase due to the localization of Bose-Einstein condensation and
disappearance of superfluidity which is recently observed in liquid 4He in
porous glass at high pressures. A critical pressure of the transition to this
phase can be defined by our new analytical criterion of supposing the size of
localized Bose-Einstein condensate becomes comparable to the scale of
confinement. The critical pressure is quantitatively consistent with
observations without free parameters.Comment: 2 pages, 1 figur
Non-minimal bridge positions of torus knots are stabilized
We show that any non-minimal bridge decomposition of a torus knot is
stabilized and that -bridge decompositions of a torus knot are unique for
any integer . This implies that a knot in a bridge position is a torus knot
if and only if there exists a torus containing the knot such that it intersects
the bridge sphere in two essential loops.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figure
