Stationary phase corrections in the process of bosonization of multi-quark interactions

The functional integration over the auxiliary bosonic variables of cubic order related with the effective action of the Nambu -- Jona-Lasinio model with 't Hooft term has recently been obtained in the form of a loop expansion. Even numbers of loops contribute to the action, while odd numbers of loops are assigned to the measure. We consider the two-loop corrections and analyse their effect on the low-lying pseudoscalar and scalar mass spectra, quark condensates and weak decay constants. The results are compared to the leading order calculations and other approaches.Comment: 22 pages, LaTeX, to appear in European Physics Journal

Harmonic analysis and the Riemann-Roch theorem

This paper is a continuation of papers: arXiv:0707.1766 [math.AG] and arXiv:0912.1577 [math.AG]. Using the two-dimensional Poisson formulas from these papers and two-dimensional adelic theory we obtain the Riemann-Roch formula on a projective smooth algebraic surface over a finite field.Comment: 7 pages; to appear in Doklady Mathematic

Shadowing for differential equations with grow-up

We consider the problem of shadowing for differential equations with grow-up. We introduce so-called nonuniform shadowing properties (in which size of the error depends on the point of the phase space) and prove for them analogs of shadowing lemma. Besides, we prove a theorem about weighted shadowing for flows. We compactify the system (using Poincare compactification, for example), apply the results about nonuniform or weighted shadowing to the compactified system, and then transfer the results back to the initial system using the decompactification procedure.Comment: preprint, 19 pages, 3 figure

OZI violating eight-quark interactions as a thermometer for chiral transitions

This work is a follow-up of our recent observation that in the SU(3) flavor limit with vanishing current quark masses the temperature for the chiral transition is substantially reduced by adding eight-quark interactions to the Nambu - Jona-Lasinio Lagrangian with U_A(1) breaking. Here we generalize the case to realistic light and strange quark masses and confirm our prior result. Additionally, we demonstrate that depending on the strength of OZI violating eight-quark interactions, the system undergoes either a rapid crossover or a first order phase transition. The meson mass spectra of the low lying pseudoscalars and scalars at T=0 are not sensitive to the difference in the parameter settings that correspond to these two alternatives, except for the singlet-octet mixing scalar channels, mainly the sigma meson.Comment: LaTeX, 5 pages, 3 figure

Eight-quark interactions as a chiral thermometer

A NJL Lagrangian extended to six and eight quark interactions is applied to study temperature effects (SU(3) flavor limit, massless case), and (realistic massive case). The transition temperature can be considerably reduced as compared to the standard approach, in accordance with recent lattice calculations. The mesonic spectra built on the spontaneously broken vacuum induced by the 't Hooft interaction strength, as opposed to the commonly considered case driven by the four-quark coupling, undergoes a rapid crossover to the unbroken phase, with a slope and at a temperature which is regulated by the strength of the OZI violating eight-quark interactions. This strength can be adjusted in consonance with the four-quark coupling and leaves the spectra unchanged, except for the sigma meson mass, which decreases. A first order transition behavior is also a possible solution within the present approach.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, prepared for the proceedings of Quark Matter 2008 - 20th International Conference on Ultra-Relativistic Nucleus Nucleus Collisions, February 4-10, Jaipur (India
