On the possibility of applying the quasi-isothermal St\"ackel's model to our Galaxy

An earlier derived quasi-isothermal St\"ackel's model of mass distribution in stellar systems and the corresponding formula for space density are applied to our Galaxy. The model rotation curve is fitted to HI kinematical data. The structural and scale parameters of the model are estimated and the corresponding density contours for our Galaxy are presented.Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures.

AC Conductance in Dense Array of the Ge0.7_{0.7}Si0.3_{0.3} Quantum Dots in Si

Complex AC-conductance, $\sigma^{AC}$, in the systems with dense Ge$_{0.7}$Si$_{0.3}$ quantum dot (QD) arrays in Si has been determined from simultaneous measurements of attenuation, $\Delta\Gamma=\Gamma(H)-\Gamma(0)$, and velocity, $\Delta V /V=(V(H)-V(0)) / V(0)$, of surface acoustic waves (SAW) with frequencies $f$ = 30-300 MHz as functions of transverse magnetic field $H \leq$ 18 T in the temperature range $T$ = 1-20 K. It has been shown that in the sample with dopant (B) concentration 8.2$\times 10^{11}$ cm$^{-2}$ at temperatures $T \leq$4 K the AC conductivity is dominated by hopping between states localized in different QDs. The observed power-law temperature dependence, $\sigma_1(H=0)\propto T^{2.4}$, and weak frequency dependence, $\sigma_1(H=0)\propto \omega^0$, of the AC conductivity are consistent with predictions of the two-site model for AC hopping conductivity for the case of $\omega \tau_0 \gg$1, where $\omega=2\pi f$ is the SAW angular frequency and $\tau_0$ is the typical population relaxation time. At $T >$ 7 K the AC conductivity is due to thermal activation of the carriers (holes) to the mobility edge. In intermediate temperature region 4$< T<$ 7 K, where AC conductivity is due to a combination of hops between QDs and diffusion on the mobility edge, one succeeded to separate both contributions. Temperature dependence of hopping contribution to the conductivity above $T^*\sim$ 4.5 K saturates, evidencing crossover to the regime where $\omega \tau_0 <$1. From crossover condition, $\omega \tau_0(T^*)$ = 1, the typical value, $\tau_0$, of the relaxation time has been determined.Comment: revtex, 3 pages, 6 figure

Arbitrary l-state solutions of the rotating Morse potential by the asymptotic iteration method

For non-zero $\ell$ values, we present an analytical solution of the radial Schr\"{o}dinger equation for the rotating Morse potential using the Pekeris approximation within the framework of the Asymptotic Iteration Method. The bound state energy eigenvalues and corresponding wave functions are obtained for a number of diatomic molecules and the results are compared with the findings of the super-symmetry, the hypervirial perturbation, the Nikiforov-Uvarov, the variational, the shifted 1/N and the modified shifted 1/N expansion methods.Comment: 15 pages with 1 eps figure. accepted for publication in Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Genera

Mathematical Structure of Relativistic Coulomb Integrals

We show that the diagonal matrix elements $,$ where $O$ $={1,\beta,i\mathbf{\alpha n}\beta}$ are the standard Dirac matrix operators and the angular brackets denote the quantum-mechanical average for the relativistic Coulomb problem, may be considered as difference analogs of the radial wave functions. Such structure provides an independent way of obtaining closed forms of these matrix elements by elementary methods of the theory of difference equations without explicit evaluation of the integrals. Three-term recurrence relations for each of these expectation values are derived as a by-product. Transformation formulas for the corresponding generalized hypergeometric series are discussed.Comment: 13 pages, no figure

Landau (\Gamma,\chi)-automorphic functions on \mathbb{C}^n of magnitude \nu

We investigate the spectral theory of the invariant Landau Hamiltonian \La^\nu acting on the space ${\mathcal{F}}^\nu_{\Gamma,\chi}$ of $(\Gamma,\chi)$-automotphic functions on \C^n, for given real number $\nu>0$, lattice $\Gamma$ of \C^n and a map $\chi:\Gamma\to U(1)$ such that the triplet $(\nu,\Gamma,\chi)$ satisfies a Riemann-Dirac quantization type condition. More precisely, we show that the eigenspace {\mathcal{E}}^\nu_{\Gamma,\chi}(\lambda)=\set{f\in {\mathcal{F}}^\nu_{\Gamma,\chi}; \La^\nu f = \nu(2\lambda+n) f}; \lambda\in\C, is non trivial if and only if $\lambda=l=0,1,2, ...$. In such case, ${\mathcal{E}}^\nu_{\Gamma,\chi}(l)$ is a finite dimensional vector space whose the dimension is given explicitly. We show also that the eigenspace ${\mathcal{E}}^\nu_{\Gamma,\chi}(0)$ associated to the lowest Landau level of \La^\nu is isomorphic to the space, {\mathcal{O}}^\nu_{\Gamma,\chi}(\C^n), of holomorphic functions on \C^n satisfying g(z+\gamma) = \chi(\gamma) e^{\frac \nu 2 |\gamma|^2+\nu\scal{z,\gamma}}g(z), \eqno{(*)} that we can realize also as the null space of the differential operator $\sum\limits_{j=1}\limits^n(\frac{-\partial^2}{\partial z_j\partial \bar z_j} + \nu \bar z_j \frac{\partial}{\partial \bar z_j})$ acting on $\mathcal C^\infty$ functions on \C^n satisfying $(*)$.Comment: 20 pages.

Orthogonal polynomials of discrete variable and Lie algebras of complex size matrices

We give a uniform interpretation of the classical continuous Chebyshev's and Hahn's orthogonal polynomials of discrete variable in terms of Feigin's Lie algebra gl(N), where N is any complex number. One can similarly interpret Chebyshev's and Hahn's q-polynomials and introduce orthogonal polynomials corresponding to Lie superlagebras. We also describe the real forms of gl(N), quasi-finite modules over gl(N), and conditions for unitarity of the quasi-finite modules. Analogs of tensors over gl(N) are also introduced.Comment: 25 pages, LaTe
