Convex Replica Simmetry Breaking From Positivity and Thermodynamic Limit
Consider a correlated Gaussian random energy model built by successively
adding one particle (spin) into the system and imposing the positivity of the
associated covariance matrix. We show that the validity of a recently isolated
condition ensuring the existence of the thermodynamic limit forces the
covariance matrix to exhibit the Parisi replica symmetry breaking scheme with a
convexity condition on the matrix elements.Comment: 11 page
Monotonicity and Thermodynamic Limit for Short Range Disordered Models
If the variance of a short range Gaussian random potential grows like the
volume its quenched thermodynamic limit is reached monotonically.Comment: 2 references adde
Geometric approach to the Hamilton-Jacobi equation and global parametrices for the Schr\"odinger propagator
We construct a family of Fourier Integral Operators, defined for arbitrary
large times, representing a global parametrix for the Schr\"odinger propagator
when the potential is quadratic at infinity. This construction is based on the
geometric approach to the corresponding Hamilton-Jacobi equation and thus
sidesteps the problem of the caustics generated by the classical flow.
Moreover, a detailed study of the real phase function allows us to recover a
WKB semiclassical approximation which necessarily involves the multivaluedness
of the graph of the Hamiltonian flow past the caustics
Ergodic Properties of Infinite Harmonic Crystals: an Analytic Approach
We give through pseudodifferential operator calculus a proof that the quantum
dynamics of a class of infinite harmonic crystals becomes ergodic and mixing
with respect to the quantum Gibbs measure if the classical infinite dynamics is
respectively ergodic and mixing with respect to the classical infinite Gibbs
measure. The classical ergodicity and mixing properties are recovered as
, and the infinitely many particles limits of the quantum Gibbs
averages are proved to be the averages over a classical infinite Gibbs measure
of the symbols generating the quantum observables under Weyl quantization.Comment: 30 pages, plain LaTe
Localization in infinite billiards: a comparison between quantum and classical ergodicity
Consider the non-compact billiard in the first quandrant bounded by the
positive -semiaxis, the positive -semiaxis and the graph of , . Although the Schnirelman Theorem holds,
the quantum average of the position is finite on any eigenstate, while
classical ergodicity entails that the classical time average of is
unbounded.Comment: 9 page
Absolute Continuity of the Floquet Spectrum for a Nonlinearly Forced Harmonic Oscillator
We prove that the Floquet spectrum of a class of time-periodic Schroedinger
equations under a a mildly nonlinear resonant forcing is purely absolutely
continuous.Comment: 8 page
A uniform quantum version of the Cherry theorem
Consider in the operator family
. is the quantum harmonic
oscillator with diophantine frequency vector \om, a bounded
pseudodifferential operator with symbol decreasing to zero at infinity in phase
space, and \ep\in\C. Then there exist \ep^\ast >0 independent of
and an open set \Omega\subset\C^2\setminus\R^2 such that if |\ep|<\ep^\ast
and \om\in\Om the quantum normal form near converges uniformly with
respect to . This yields an exact quantization formula for the
eigenvalues, and for the classical Cherry theorem on convergence of
Birkhoff's normal form for complex frequencies is recovered.Comment: 17 page
PT Symmetric Schr\"odinger Operators: Reality of the Perturbed Eigenvalues
We prove the reality of the perturbed eigenvalues of some PT symmetric
Hamiltonians of physical interest by means of stability methods. In particular
we study 2-dimensional generalized harmonic oscillators with polynomial
perturbation and the one-dimensional for
HSkip+: A Self-Stabilizing Overlay Network for Nodes with Heterogeneous Bandwidths
In this paper we present and analyze HSkip+, a self-stabilizing overlay
network for nodes with arbitrary heterogeneous bandwidths. HSkip+ has the same
topology as the Skip+ graph proposed by Jacob et al. [PODC 2009] but its
self-stabilization mechanism significantly outperforms the self-stabilization
mechanism proposed for Skip+. Also, the nodes are now ordered according to
their bandwidths and not according to their identifiers. Various other
solutions have already been proposed for overlay networks with heterogeneous
bandwidths, but they are not self-stabilizing. In addition to HSkip+ being
self-stabilizing, its performance is on par with the best previous bounds on
the time and work for joining or leaving a network of peers of logarithmic
diameter and degree and arbitrary bandwidths. Also, the dilation and congestion
for routing messages is on par with the best previous bounds for such networks,
so that HSkip+ combines the advantages of both worlds. Our theoretical
investigations are backed by simulations demonstrating that HSkip+ is indeed
performing much better than Skip+ and working correctly under high churn rates.Comment: This is a long version of a paper published by IEEE in the
