Description of a domain by a squeezed state in a scalar field theory

The author attempted to describe a domain by using a squeezed state in quantum field theory. An extended squeeze operator was used to construct the state. In a scalar field theory, the author described a domain that the distributions of the condensate and of the fluctuation are Gaussian. The momentum distribution, chaoticity and correlation length were calculated. It was found that the typical value of the momentum is about the inverse of the domain size, and that the chaoticity reflects the ratio of the size of the squeeze region to that of the coherent region. The results indicate that the quantum state of a domain is surmised by these quantities under the assumption that the distributions are Gaussian. As an example, this method was applied to a pion field, and the momentum distribution and the chaoticity were shown.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figures, a typographical error in the reference is correcte

Vertex operator approach for form factors of Belavin's (Z/nZ)(Z/nZ)-symmetric model

Belavin's $(\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z})$-symmetric model is considered on the basis of bosonization of vertex operators in the $A^{(1)}_{n-1}$ model and vertex-face transformation. Free field representations of nonlocal tail operators are constructed for off diagonal matrix elements with respect to the ground state sectors. As a result, integral formulae for form factors of any local operators in the $(\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z})$-symmetric model can be obtained, in principle.Comment: 24 pages, 4 figures, published in J.

Parametric amplification with a friction in heavy ion collisions

We study the effects of the expansion of the system and the friction on the parametric amplification of mesonic fields in high energy heavy ion collisions within the linear $\sigma$ model . The equation of motion which is similar to Mathieu equation is derived to describe the time development of classical fields in the last stage of a heavy ion collision after the freezeout time. The enhanced mode is extracted analytically by comparison with Mathieu equation and the equation of motion is solved numerically to examine whether soft modes will be enhanced or not. It is found that the strong peak appears around 267 MeV in the pion transverse momentum distribution in cases with weak friction and high maximum temperature. This enhancement can be extracted by taking the ratio between different modes in the pion transverse momentum distribution.Comment: 10 pages, 9 figures LaTeX: appendix adde

Compound basis arising from the basic A1(1)A^{(1)}_{1}-module

A new basis for the polynomial ring of infinitely many variables is constructed which consists of products of Schur functions and Q-functions. The transition matrix from the natural Schur function basis is investigated.Comment: 12 page

Form factors of the XXZ model and the affine quantum group symmetry

We present new expressions of form factors of the XXZ model which satisfy Smirnov's three axioms. These new form factors are obtained by acting the affine quantum group $U_q (\hat{\frak s \frak l_2})$ to the known ones obtained in our previous works. We also find the relations among all the new and known form factors, i.e., all other form factors can be expressed as kind of descendents of a special one.Comment: 11 pages, latex; Some explanation is adde

Annihilation poles of a Smirnov-type integral formula for solutions to quantum Knizhnik--Zamolodchikov equation

We consider the recently obtained integral representation of quantum Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation of level 0. We obtain the condition for the integral kernel such that these solutions satisfy three axioms for form factor \'{a} la Smirnov. We discuss the relation between this integral representation and the form factor of XXZ spin chain.Comment: 14 pages, latex, no figures

Squeezed Correlations and Spectra for Mass-Shifted Bosons

Huge back-to-back correlations are shown to arise for thermal ensembles of bosonic states with medium-modified masses. The effect is experimentally observable in high energy heavy ion collisions.Comment: 4 pages (RevTex) including 2 eps figures via psfig, published versio

Elucidation of the molecular signatures of renal cell carcinoma by gene expression profiling

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the 10th most common cancer in United States. It is a heterogeneous disease with various histologic types. Since high-throughput technologies such as microarrays have been introduced, molecular confirmation of previously known findings in RCC has been made and new molecular findings have emerged. We review the accumulating advances in this field and their clinical implications. The published data so far have proved to be significant and promising, and numerous microarray studies with larger number of cases are currently ongoing or being planned. Although various clinical parameters are being refined for diagnosis and prognosis, these data obtained by microarray studies will undoubtedly contribute to both and eventually impacts the treatment of RCC

Dynamical Pion Production via Parametric Resonance from Disoriented Chiral Condensate

We discuss a dynamical mechanism of pion production from disoriented chiral condensates (DCC). It leads to an explosive production of pions via the parametric amplification mechanism, which is similar to the reheating mechanism in inflationary cosmology. Classically, it is related with the instability in the solutions of the Mathieu equation and we explore the quantum aspects of the mechanism. We show that nonlinearlities and back reactions can be ignorable for sufficiently long time under the small amplitude approximations of background $\sigma$ oscillations, which may be appropriate for the late stage of nonequilibrium phase transition. It allows us to obtain an explicit quantum state of the produced pions and $\sigma$, the squeezed state of BCS type. Single particle distributions and two-pion correlation functions are computed within these approximations. The results obtained illuminate the characteristic features of multi-pion states produced through the parametric amplification mechanism. In particular, two-pion correlations of various charge combinations contain back-to-back correlations which cannot be masked by the identical particle interference effect.Comment: REVTEX 18 pages and 10 figure

Comprehensive Analysis of Market Conditions in the Foreign Exchange Market: Fluctuation Scaling and Variance-Covariance Matrix

We investigate quotation and transaction activities in the foreign exchange market for every week during the period of June 2007 to December 2010. A scaling relationship between the mean values of number of quotations (or number of transactions) for various currency pairs and the corresponding standard deviations holds for a majority of the weeks. However, the scaling breaks in some time intervals, which is related to the emergence of market shocks. There is a monotonous relationship between values of scaling indices and global averages of currency pair cross-correlations when both quantities are observed for various window lengths $\Delta t$.Comment: 13 pages, 10 figure
