Spatial structure of Cooper pairs in nuclei
We discuss the spatial structure of the Cooper pair in dilute neutron matter
and neutron-rich nuclei by means of the BCS theory and the
Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogioliubov model, respectively. The neutron pairing in
dilute neutron matter is close to the region of the BCS-BEC crossover in a wide
density range, giving rise to spatially compact Cooper pair whose size is
smaller than the average interaparticle distance. This behavior extends to
moderate low density ( of the saturation density) where the
Cooper pair size becomes smallerst ( fm). The Cooper pair in finite
nuclei also exhibits the spatial correlation favoring the coupling of neutrons
at small relative distances r \lesim 3 fm with large probability.
Neutron-rich nuclei having small neutron separation energy may provide us
opportunity to probe the spatial correlation since the neutron pairing and the
spatial correlation persists also in an area of low-density neutron
distribution extending from the surface to far outside the nucleus.Comment: 13 pages, 5 figures, chapter in "Fifty Years of Nuclear BCS", eds.

A challenge for critical point of spin glass in ground state
We show several calculations to identify the critical point in the ground
state in random spin systems including spin glasses on the basis of the duality
analysis. The duality analysis is a profound method to obtain the precise
location of the critical point in finite temperature even for spin glasses. We
propose a single equality for identifying the critical point in the ground
state from several speculations. The equality can indeed give the exact
location of the critical points for the bond-dilution Ising model on several
lattices and provides insight on further analysis on the ground state in spin
glasses.Comment: 7 pages, 2 figures, to appear in Proceedings of 4th YSM-SPIP (Sendai,
