Fractional Generalization of Gradient Systems
We consider a fractional generalization of gradient systems. We use
differential forms and exterior derivatives of fractional orders. Examples of
fractional gradient systems are considered. We describe the stationary states
of these systems.Comment: 11 pages, LaTe
Path Integral for Quantum Operations
In this paper we consider a phase space path integral for general
time-dependent quantum operations, not necessarily unitary. We obtain the path
integral for a completely positive quantum operation satisfied Lindblad
equation (quantum Markovian master equation). We consider the path integral for
quantum operation with a simple infinitesimal generator.Comment: 24 pages, LaTe
Dynamics of Fractal Solids
We describe the fractal solid by a special continuous medium model. We
propose to describe the fractal solid by a fractional continuous model, where
all characteristics and fields are defined everywhere in the volume but they
follow some generalized equations which are derived by using integrals of
fractional order. The order of fractional integral can be equal to the fractal
mass dimension of the solid. Fractional integrals are considered as an
approximation of integrals on fractals. We suggest the approach to compute the
moments of inertia for fractal solids. The dynamics of fractal solids are
described by the usual Euler's equations. The possible experimental test of the
continuous medium model for fractal solids is considered.Comment: 12 pages, LaTe
Fractional Variations for Dynamical Systems: Hamilton and Lagrange Approaches
Fractional generalization of an exterior derivative for calculus of
variations is defined. The Hamilton and Lagrange approaches are considered.
Fractional Hamilton and Euler-Lagrange equations are derived. Fractional
equations of motion are obtained by fractional variation of Lagrangian and
Hamiltonian that have only integer derivatives.Comment: 21 pages, LaTe
Quark loop contribution to \pi^0 \to 4\gamma
We find the contribution of constituent quark loop mechanism to the branching
ratio B_{4\gamma} = \Gamma_{4\gamma}/\Gamma_{4\gamma} \sim 5.45 \cdot 10^{-16}
for the reasonable choice of constituent quark mass m \sim 280 MeV. This result
is in agreement with vector-dominance approach result obtained years ago. Thus
the main contribution arises from QED mechanism \pi^0 \to \gamma (\gamma^*) \to
\gamma (3\gamma) including light-light scattering block with electron loop.
This contribution was investigated in paper of one of us and gave B_{4\gamma}
\sim 2.6 \cdot 10^{-11}.Comment: 7 pages, 2 figure
Transport Equations from Liouville Equations for Fractional Systems
We consider dynamical systems that are described by fractional power of
coordinates and momenta. The fractional powers can be considered as a
convenient way to describe systems in the fractional dimension space. For the
usual space the fractional systems are non-Hamiltonian. Generalized transport
equation is derived from Liouville and Bogoliubov equations for fractional
systems. Fractional generalization of average values and reduced distribution
functions are defined. Hydrodynamic equations for fractional systems are
derived from the generalized transport equation.Comment: 11 pages, LaTe
