Mathematical structure of magnons in quantum ferromagnets

We provide the mathematical structure and a simple, transparent and rigorous derivation of the magnons as elementary quasi-particle excitations at low temperatures and in the infinite spin limit for a large class of Heisenberg ferromagnets. The magnon canonical variables are obtained as fluctuation operators in the infinite spin limit. Their quantum character is governed by the size of the magnetization.</p

On the Finite-Temperature Generalization of the C-theorem and the Interplay between Classical and Quantum Fluctuations

The behavior of the finite-temperature C-function, defined by Neto and Fradkin [Nucl. Phys. B {\bf 400}, 525 (1993)], is analyzed within a d -dimensional exactly solvable lattice model, recently proposed by Vojta [Phys. Rev. B {\bf 53}, 710 (1996)], which is of the same universality class as the quantum nonlinear O(n) sigma model in the limit $n\to \infty$. The scaling functions of C for the cases d=1 (absence of long-range order), d=2 (existence of a quantum critical point), d=4 (existence of a line of finite temperature critical points that ends up with a quantum critical point) are derived and analyzed. The locations of regions where C is monotonically increasing (which depend significantly on d) are exactly determined. The results are interpreted within the finite-size scaling theory that has to be modified for d=4.

BEC for a Coupled Two-type Hard Core Bosons Model

We study a solvable model of two types hard core Bose particles. A complete analysis is given of its equilibrium states including the proof of existence of Bose-Einstein condensation. The plasmon frequencies and the quantum normal modes corresponding to these frequencies are rigorously constructed. In particular we show a two-fold degeneracy of these frequencies. We show that all this results from spontaneous gauge symmetry breakdown

Imperfect Bose Gas with Attractive Boundary Conditions

The free Bose gas with attractive boundary conditions is an interesting toy model for the study of Bose-Einstein Condensation (BEC), because one has BEC already in one dimension. Here we study for the first time the imperfect Bose gas with these boundary conditions and prove rigorously the occurence of condensation.Comment: 8 page

A Dicke Type Model for Equilibrium BEC Superradiance

We study the effect of electromagnetic radiation on the condensate of a Bose gas. In an earlier paper we considered the problem for two simple models showing the cooperative effect between Bose-Einstein condensation and superradiance. In this paper we formalise the model suggested by Ketterle et al in which the Bose condensate particles have a two level structure. We present a soluble microscopic Dicke type model describing a thermodynamically stable system. We find the equilibrium states of the system and compute the thermodynamic functions giving explicit formulae expressing the cooperative effect between Bose-Einstein condensation and superradiance

Non-Extensive Bose-Einstein Condensation Model

The imperfect Boson gas supplemented with a gentle repulsive interaction is completely solved. In particular it is proved that it has non-extensive Bose-Einstein condensation, i.e., there is condensation without macroscopic occupation of the ground state (k=0) level
