Structures of q-Deformed Currents

The non-perturbation and perturbation structures of the q-deformed probability currents are studied. According to two ways of realizing the q-deformed Heisenberg algebra by the undeformed operators, the perturbation structures of two q-deformed probability currents are explored in detail. Locally the structures of two perturbation q-deformed probability currents are different, one is explicitly potential dependent; the other is not. But their total contributions to the whole space are the same.Comment: 13. Physics Letters (in press

Perturbative Equivalent Theorem in q-Deformed Dynamics

Corresponding to two ways of realizing the q-deformed Heisenberg algebra by the undeformed variables there are two q-perturbative Hamiltonians with the additional momentum-dependent interactions, one originates from the perturbative expansion of the potential, the other originates from that of the kinetic energy term. At the level of operators, these two q-perturbative Hamiltonians are different. In order to establish a reliable foundation of the perturbative calculations in q-deformed dynamics, except examples of the harmonic-oscillator and the Morse potential demonstrated before, the general q-perturbative equivalent theorem is demonstrated, which states that for any regular potential which is singularity free the expectation values of two q-perturbative Hamiltonians in the eigenstates of the undeformed Hamiltonian are equivalent. For the q-deformed ``free'' particle case, the perturbative Hamiltonian originated from the kinetic energy term still keeps its general expression, but it does not lead to energy shift.Comment: 10 pages, no figure, accepted by Phys.

How to experimentally measure the number 5 of the SO(5) theory?

According to Wilson's theory of critical phenomena, critical exponents are universal functions of $d$, the dimension of space, and $n$, the dimension of the symmetry group. SO(5) theory of antiferromagnetism and superconductivity predicts a bicritical point where $T_N$ and $T_c$ intersect. By measuring critical exponents close to the bicritical point, and knowing that $d=3$, one can experimentally measure the number 5 of the SO(5) theory.Comment: Invited talk at the M2S conference in Housto

Studying top quark decay into the polarized W-boson in the TC2 model

We study the decay mode of top quark decaying into Wb in the TC2 model where the top quark is distinguished from other fermions by participating in a strong interaction. We find that the TC2 correction to the decay width $\Gamma (t \to b W)$ is generally several percent and maximum value can reach 8% for the currently allowed parameters. The magnitude of such correction is comparable with QCD correction and larger than that of minimal supersymmetric model. Such correction might be observable in the future colliders. We also study the TC2 correction to the branching ratio of top quark decay into the polarized W bosons and find the correction is below $1$. After considering the TC2 correction, we find that our theoretical predictions about the decay branching ratio are also consistent with the experimental data.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figure

Grand Unified Yukawa Matrix Ansatz: The Standard Model Fermion Mass, Quark Mixing and CP Violation Parameters

We propose a new mass matrix ansatz: At the grand unified (GU) scale, the standard model (SM) Yukawa coupling matrix elements are integer powers of the square root of the GU gauge coupling constant \varepsilon \equiv \sqrt{\alpha_{\text{GU}}}, multiplied by order unity random complex numbers. It relates the hierarchy of the SM ermion masses and quark mixings to the gauge coupling constants, greatly reducing the SM parameters, and can give good fitting results of the SM fermion mass, quark mixing and CP violation parameters. This is a neat but very effective ansatz.Comment: 4 pages (two columns), by REVTeX 4, 2 tables, no figures, version for publication in CP

Superfluid Bosons and Flux Liquids: Disorder, Thermal Fluctuations, and Finite-Size Effects

The influence of different types of disorder (both uncorrelated and correlated) on the superfluid properties of a weakly interacting or dilute Bose gas, as well as on the corresponding quantities for flux line liquids in high-temperature superconductors at low magnetic fields are reviewed, investigated and compared. We exploit the formal analogy between superfluid bosons and the statistical mechanics of directed lines, and explore the influence of the different "imaginary time" boundary conditions appropriate for a flux line liquid. For superfluids, we discuss the density and momentum correlations, the condensate fraction, and the normal-fluid density as function of temperature for two- and three-dimensional systems subject to a space- and time-dependent random potential as well as conventional point-, line-, and plane-like defects. In the case of vortex liquids subject to point disorder, twin boundaries, screw dislocations, and various configurations of columnar damage tracks, we calculate the corresponding quantities, namely density and tilt correlations, the ``boson'' order parameter, and the tilt modulus. The finite-size corrections due to periodic vs. open "imaginary time" boundary conditions differ in interesting and important ways. Experimental implications for vortex lines are described briefly.Comment: 78 pages, RevTex, 4 figures included (sorry, there are no ps-files for the remaining 2 figures; if needed, please send mail to [email protected]); brief erratum appended (2 pages
