    On the explicit solutions of the elliptic Calogero system

    Let q1,q2,...,qNq_1,q_2,...,q_N be the coordinates of NN particles on the circle, interacting with the integrable potential ∑j<kN℘(qj−qk)\sum_{j<k}^N\wp(q_j-q_k), where ℘\wp is the Weierstrass elliptic function. We show that every symmetric elliptic function in q1,q2,...,qNq_1,q_2,...,q_N is a meromorphic function in time. We give explicit formulae for these functions in terms of genus N−1N-1 theta functions.Comment: 18 pages, Late

    Energy-momentum tensor in thermal strong-field QED with unstable vacuum

    Full text link
    The mean value of the one-loop energy-momentum tensor in thermal QED with electric-like background that creates particles from vacuum is calculated. The problem differes essentially from calculations of effective actions (similar to that of Heisenberg--Euler) in backgrounds that do not violate the stability of vacuum. The role of a constant electric background in the violation of both the stability of vacuum and the thermal character of particle distribution is investigated. Restrictions on the electric field and its duration under which one can neglect the back-reaction of created particles are established.Comment: 7 pages, Talk presented at Workshop "Quantum Field Theory under the Influence of External Conditions", Leipzig, September 17-21, 2007; introduction extended, version accepted for publication in J.Phys.

    Optimal fast single pulse readout of qubits

    Full text link
    The computer simulations of the process of single pulse readout from the flux-biased phase qubit is performed in the frame of one-dimensional Schroedinger equation. It has been demonstrated that the readout error can be minimized by choosing the optimal pulse duration and the depth of a potential well, leading to the fidelity of 0.94 for 2ns and 0.965 for 12ns sinusoidal pulses.Comment: 4 pages, 6 figure

    Dirac equation in the magnetic-solenoid field

    We consider the Dirac equation in the magnetic-solenoid field (the field of a solenoid and a collinear uniform magnetic field). For the case of Aharonov-Bohm solenoid, we construct self-adjoint extensions of the Dirac Hamiltonian using von Neumann's theory of deficiency indices. We find self-adjoint extensions of the Dirac Hamiltonian in both above dimensions and boundary conditions at the AB solenoid. Besides, for the first time, solutions of the Dirac equation in the magnetic-solenoid field with a finite radius solenoid were found. We study the structure of these solutions and their dependence on the behavior of the magnetic field inside the solenoid. Then we exploit the latter solutions to specify boundary conditions for the magnetic-solenoid field with Aharonov-Bohm solenoid.Comment: 23 pages, 2 figures, LaTex fil

    One-loop energy-momentum tensor in QED with electric-like background

    Full text link
    We have obtained nonperturbative one-loop expressions for the mean energy-momentum tensor and current density of Dirac's field on a constant electric-like background. One of the goals of this calculation is to give a consistent description of back-reaction in such a theory. Two cases of initial states are considered: the vacuum state and the thermal equilibrium state. First, we perform calculations for the vacuum initial state. In the obtained expressions, we separate the contributions due to particle creation and vacuum polarization. The latter contributions are related to the Heisenberg-Euler Lagrangian. Then, we study the case of the thermal initial state. Here, we separate the contributions due to particle creation, vacuum polarization, and the contributions due to the work of the external field on the particles at the initial state. All these contributions are studied in detail, in different regimes of weak and strong fields and low and high temperatures. The obtained results allow us to establish restrictions on the electric field and its duration under which QED with a strong constant electric field is consistent. Under such restrictions, one can neglect the back-reaction of particles created by the electric field. Some of the obtained results generalize the calculations of Heisenberg-Euler for energy density to the case of arbitrary strong electric fields.Comment: 35 pages; misprints in the sign in definitions (40)-(43), and (68) corrected, results unchange

    On the non-persistence of Hamiltonian identity cycles

    Get PDF
    We study the leading term of the holonomy map of a perturbed plane polynomial Hamiltonian foliation. The non-vanishing of this term implies the non-persistence of the corresponding Hamiltonian identity cycle. We prove that this does happen for generic perturbations and cycles, as well for cycles which are commutators in Hamiltonian foliations of degree two. Our approach relies on the Chen's theory of iterated path integrals which we briefly resume.Comment: 17 page

    Comments on spin operators and spin-polarization states of 2+1 fermions

    Get PDF
    In this brief article we discuss spin polarization operators and spin polarization states of 2+1 massive Dirac fermions and find a convenient representation by the help of 4-spinors for their description. We stress that in particular the use of such a representation allows us to introduce the conserved covariant spin operator in the 2+1 field theory. Another advantage of this representation is related to the pseudoclassical limit of the theory. Indeed, quantization of the pseudoclassical model of a spinning particle in 2+1 dimensions leads to the 4-spinor representation as the adequate realization of the operator algebra, where the corresponding operator of a first-class constraint, which cannot be gauged out by imposing the gauge condition, is just the covariant operator previously introduced in the quantum theory.Comment: 6 page

    Integration of D-dimensional 2-factor spaces cosmological models by reducing to the generalized Emden-Fowler equation

    Get PDF
    The D-dimensional cosmological model on the manifold M=R×M1×M2M = R \times M_{1} \times M_{2} describing the evolution of 2 Einsteinian factor spaces, M1M_1 and M2M_2, in the presence of multicomponent perfect fluid source is considered. The barotropic equation of state for mass-energy densities and the pressures of the components is assumed in each space. When the number of the non Ricci-flat factor spaces and the number of the perfect fluid components are both equal to 2, the Einstein equations for the model are reduced to the generalized Emden-Fowler (second-order ordinary differential) equation, which has been recently investigated by Zaitsev and Polyanin within discrete-group analysis. Using the integrable classes of this equation one generates the integrable cosmological models. The corresponding metrics are presented. The method is demonstrated for the special model with Ricci-flat spaces M1,M2M_1,M_2 and the 2-component perfect fluid source.Comment: LaTeX file, no figure
