    Static properties of chiral models with SU(3) group structure

    Get PDF
    We investigate the strangeness in the framework of chiral models, such as the Skyrmion, MIT bag, chiral bag and superqualiton models, with SU(3) flavor group structure. We review the recent progresses in both the theoretical paradigm and experimental verification for strange hadron physics, and in particular the SAMPLE experiment results on the proton strange form factor. We study the color flavor locking phase in the color superconducting quark matter at high density, which might exist in the core of neutron stars, in the soliton-like superqualiton description. We explain the difficulties encountered in the application of the standard Dirac quantization to the Skyrmion and superqualiton models and treat the geometrical constraints of these soliton models properly to yield the relevant mass spectrum including the Weyl ordering corrections and the BRST symmetry structures.Comment: 112 pages, 6 figures, revise

    Get PDF
    Exploiting a multiply warped product manifold scheme, we study the interior solutions of the Banados-Teitelboim-Zanelli black holes and the exterior solutions of the de Sitter black holes in the (2+1) dimensions.Comment: 13 page

    Warped products and Reissner-Nordstrom metric

    Full text link
    We study a multiply warped products manifold associated with the Reissner-Nordstrom metric to investigate the physical properties inside the black hole event horizons. It is shown that, different from the uncharged Schwarzschild metric, the Ricci curvature components inside the Reissner-Nordstrom black hole horizons are nonvanishing, while the Einstein scalar curvature vanishes even in the interior of the charged metric. Introducing a perfect fluid inside the Reissor-Nordstrom black hole, it is also shown that the charge plays effective roles of decreasing the mass-energy density and the pressure of the fluid inside the black hole.Comment: 7 page

    Warped products and the Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m-AdS black hole

    Full text link
    We study a multiply warped product manifold associated with the Reissner-Nordstrom-AdS metric to investigate the physical properties inside the black hole event horizons. Our results include various limiting geometries of the RN, Schwarzschild--AdS and Schwarzschild space-times, through the successive truncation procedure of parameters in the original curved space.Comment: 10 page

    Online Gaussian Process State-Space Model: Learning and Planning for Partially Observable Dynamical Systems

    Full text link
    This paper proposes an online learning method of Gaussian process state-space model (GP-SSM). GP-SSM is a probabilistic representation learning scheme that represents unknown state transition and/or measurement models as Gaussian processes (GPs). While the majority of prior literature on learning of GP-SSM are focused on processing a given set of time series data, data may arrive and accumulate sequentially over time in most dynamical systems. Storing all such sequential data and updating the model over entire data incur large amount of computational resources in space and time. To overcome this difficulty, we propose a practical method, termed \textit{onlineGPSSM}, that incorporates stochastic variational inference (VI) and online VI with novel formulation. The proposed method mitigates the computational complexity without catastrophic forgetting and also support adaptation to changes in a system and/or a real environments. Furthermore, we present application of onlineGPSSM into the reinforcement learning (RL) of partially observable dynamical systems by integrating onlineGPSSM with Bayesian filtering and trajectory optimization algorithms. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate applicability of the proposed method.Comment: This work has been submitted to the IEEE for possible publication.

    Consistent Dirac Quantization of SU(2) Skyrmion equivalent to the BFT Scheme

    Full text link
    In the framework of Dirac quantization, the SU(2) Skyrmion is canonically quantized to yield the modified predictions of the static properties of baryons. We show that the energy spectrum of this Skyrmion obtained by the Dirac method with the suggestion of generalized momenta is consistent with the result of the Batalin-Fradkin-Tyutin formalism.Comment: 12 pages, no figure

    Bosonization of QCD at high density

    Get PDF
    We describe the color-flavor locking (CFL) color superconductor in terms of bosonic variables, where the gaped quarks are realized as solitons, so-called superqualitons. We then show that the ground state of the CFL color superconductor is a QQ-matter, which is the lowest energy state for a given fixed baryon number. From this QQ-matter, we calculate the minimal energy to create a superqualiton and argue that it is twice of the Cooper gap. Upon quantizing the zero modes of superqualitons, we find superqualitons have the same quantum number as the gaped quarks and furthermore all the high spin states of superqualitons are absent in the effective bosonic description of the CFL color superconductor.Comment: 13 pages, revtex, no figure

    GEMS embeddings and freely falling temperatures of Schwarzschild(-AdS) black holes in massive gravity

    Full text link
    We globally embed (3+1)-dimensional Schwarzschild and Schwarzschild-AdS black holes in massive gravity into (5+2)-dimensional flat spacetimes. Making use of embedding coordinates, we directly obtain the generalized Hawking, Unruh and freely falling temperatures in a Schwarzschild and Schwarzschild-AdS black hole due to massive graviton effects.Comment: 15 pages, 7 figures, title changed, references added, version to appear in PLB. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1812.0037

    Improved Dirac quantization of a free particle

    Full text link
    In the framework of Dirac quantization with second class constraints, a free particle moving on the surface of a (d−1)−(d-1)-dimensional sphere has an ambiguity in the energy spectrum due to the arbitrary shift of canonical momenta. We explicitly show that this spectrum obtained by the Dirac method can be consistent with the result of the Batalin-Fradkin-Tyutin formalism, which is an improved Dirac method, at the level of the first-class constraint by fixing the ambiguity, and discuss its physical consequences.Comment: 12 pages, revtex, no figures, minor corrections, title is change

    Adaptive Path-Integral Autoencoder: Representation Learning and Planning for Dynamical Systems

    Full text link
    We present a representation learning algorithm that learns a low-dimensional latent dynamical system from high-dimensional \textit{sequential} raw data, e.g., video. The framework builds upon recent advances in amortized inference methods that use both an inference network and a refinement procedure to output samples from a variational distribution given an observation sequence, and takes advantage of the duality between control and inference to approximately solve the intractable inference problem using the path integral control approach. The learned dynamical model can be used to predict and plan the future states; we also present the efficient planning method that exploits the learned low-dimensional latent dynamics. Numerical experiments show that the proposed path-integral control based variational inference method leads to tighter lower bounds in statistical model learning of sequential data.
