(D+1)-Dimensional Formulation for D-Dimensional Constrained Systems

D-dimensional constrained systems are studied with stochastic Lagrangian and\break Hamiltonian. It is shown that stochastic consistency conditions are second class constraints and Lagrange multiplier fields can be determined in (D+1)-dimensional canonical formulation. The Langevin equations for the constrained system are obtained as Hamilton's equations of motion where conjugate momenta play a part of noise fields.Comment: 10 pages (Plain TeX), CHIBA-EP-58-Re

Non-perturbative gadget for topological quantum codes

Many-body entangled systems, in particular topologically ordered spin systems proposed as resources for quantum information processing tasks, often involve highly non-local interaction terms. While one may approximate such systems through two-body interactions perturbatively, these approaches have a number of drawbacks in practice. Here, we propose a scheme to simulate many-body spin Hamiltonians with two-body Hamiltonians non-perturbatively. Unlike previous approaches, our Hamiltonians are not only exactly solvable with exact ground state degeneracy, but also support completely localized quasi-particle excitations, which are ideal for quantum information processing tasks. Our construction is limited to simulating the toric code and quantum double models, but generalizations to other non-local spin Hamiltonians may be possible.Comment: 13 pages, 8 figures, PRL Accepte

Theoretical study of the decay-out spin of superdeformed bands in the Dy and Hg regions

Decay of the superdeformed bands have been studied mainly concentrating upon the decay-out spin, which is sensitive to the tunneling probability between the super- and normal-deformed wells. Although the basic features are well understood by the calculations, it is difficult to precisely reproduce the decay-out spins in some cases. Comparison of the systematic calculations with experimental data reveals that values of the calculated decay-out spins scatter more broadly around the average value in both the $A \approx$ 150 and 190 regions, which reflects the variety of calculated tunneling probability in each band.Comment: 6 pages 4 figures (30 PS files).

Summary of Working Group I: Hadron Structure

A summary is given on the main aspects which were discussed by the working group. They include new results on the deep inelastic scattering structure functions $F_2, xF_3, F_L$ and $F_2^{c\bar{c}}$ and their parametrizations, the measurement of the gluon density, recent theoretical work on the small $x$ behavior of structure functions, theoretical and experimental results on $\alpha_s$, the direct photon cross section, and a discussion of the event rates in the high $p_T$ range at Tevatron and the high $Q^2$ range at HERA, as well as possible interpretations.Comment: 22 pages latex, including 8 figures (ps,eps), to appear in the Proceedings of the International Conference on Deep Inelastic Scattering, Chicago, April 1997, AI
