Reflection matrices for the vertex model
The graded reflection equation is investigated for the
vertex model. We have found four classes of diagonal
solutions and twelve classes of non-diagonal ones. The number of free
parameters for some solutions depends on the number of bosonic and fermionic
degrees of freedom considered.Comment: 30 page
Hamilton-Jacobi Approach for Power-Law Potentials
The classical and relativistic Hamilton-Jacobi approach is applied to the
one-dimensional homogeneous potential, , where and
are continuously varying parameters. In the non-relativistic case, the
exact analytical solution is determined in terms of , and the total
energy . It is also shown that the non-linear equation of motion can be
linearized by constructing a hypergeometric differential equation for the
inverse problem . A variable transformation reducing the general problem
to that one of a particle subjected to a linear force is also established. For
any value of , it leads to a simple harmonic oscillator if , an
"anti-oscillator" if , or a free particle if E=0. However, such a
reduction is not possible in the relativistic case. For a bounded relativistic
motion, the first order correction to the period is determined for any value of
. For , it is found that the correction is just twice that one
deduced for the simple harmonic oscillator (), and does not depend on the
specific value of .Comment: 12 pages, Late
Jeans' gravitational instability and nonextensive kinetic theory
The concept of Jeans gravitational instability is rediscussed in the
framework of nonextensive statistics and its associated kinetic theory. A
simple analytical formula generalizing the Jeans criterion is derived by
assuming that the unperturbed self- gravitating collisionless gas is
kinetically described by the -parameterized class of power law velocity
distributions. It is found that the critical values of wavelength and mass
depend explicitly on the nonextensive -parameter. The standard Jeans
wavelength derived for a Maxwellian distribution is recovered in the limiting
case =1. For power-law distributions with cutoff, the instability condition
is weakened with the system becoming unstable even for wavelengths of the
disturbance smaller than the standard Jeans length .Comment: 5 pages, including 3 figures. Accepted for publication in A&
, and reflection K-matrices
We investigate the possible regular solutions of the boundary Yang-Baxter
equation for the vertex models associated with the ,
and affine Lie algebras. We find three types of solutions with
, and 1 free parameters,respectively. Special cases and all diagonal
solutions are presented separately.Comment: 22 pages, LaTe
Is CDM an effective CCDM cosmology?
We show that a cosmology driven by gravitationally induced particle
production of all non-relativistic species existing in the present Universe
mimics exactly the observed flat accelerating CDM cosmology with just
one dynamical free parameter. This kind of scenario includes the creation cold
dark matter (CCDM) model [Lima, Jesus & Oliveira, JCAP 011(2010)027] as a
particular case and also provides a natural reduction of the dark sector since
the vacuum component is not needed to accelerate the Universe. The new cosmic
scenario is equivalent to CDM both at the background and perturbative
levels and the associated creation process is also in agreement with the
universality of the gravitational interaction and equivalence principle.
Implicitly, it also suggests that the present day astronomical observations
cannot be considered the ultimate proof of cosmic vacuum effects in the evolved
Universe because CDM may be only an effective cosmology.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, changes in the abstract, introduction, new
