Complex spectral analysis and test function spaces

We consider complex eigenstates of unstable Hamiltonian and its physically meaningful regions. Starting from a simple model of a discrete state interacting with a continuum via a general potential, we show that its Lippmann-Schwinger solution set can be decomposed into a free-field set, a set containing lower half plane pole of Green's function and a set containing upper half pole of Green's function. From here distinctive complex eigenstates corresponding to each pole are constructed. We note that on the real line square integrable functions can be decomposed into Hardy class above and below functions which behave well in their respective complex half planes. Test function restriction formulas which remove unphysical growth are given. As a specific example we consider Friedrichs model which solutions and complex eigenstates are known, and compare numerically calculated total time evolution with test function restricted complex eigenstates for various cases. The results shows that test function restricted complex eigenstates capture the essence of decay phenomena quite well.Comment: 32 page

A game-theoretic analysis of Inter-Korean transboundary rivers

Thesis(Master) --KDI School:Master of Public Management,2018.The purpose of this research is to establish a management strategy for the reasonable and equitable utilization of the inter-Korean transboundary rivers through the case of the Imnam Dam on the Bukhan River and the Hwanggang Dam on the Imjin River. As a methodology, game theoretic approach was deployed to explore a solution to the problems of the transboundary rivers between North Korea and South Korea. The existing studies dealing with the inter-Korean negotiations on the transboundary rivers have focused primarily on establishing counter-strategies under non-cooperative circumstances. However, in this research, the possibility of collaboration between the two Koreas was set up by analyzing the scenarios as cooperative games that link rewards. Besides, a methodology is presented that can quantify and evaluate the conditions of cooperation and reward for the best benefits of the two Koreas. The most favorable way for the two Koreas to enjoy the best benefits is that North Korea allocates river flow to South Korea and South Korea actively invests in joint development projects as a reward for it, such as the modernization of North Korea''s deteriorating hydroelectric power facilities, etc.I.

Stable finite element methods for the Stokes problem

The mixed finite element scheme of the Stokes problem with pressure stabilization is analyzed for the cross-grid Pk−Pk−1elements, k≥1, using discontinuous pressures. The Pk+−Pk−1 elements are also analyzed. We prove the stability of the scheme using the macroelement technique. The order of convergence follows from the standard theory of mixed methods. The macroelement technique can also be applicable to the stability analysis for some higher order methods using continuous pressures such as Taylor-Hood methods, cross-grid methods, or iso-grid methods

Complex collective states in a one-dimensional two-atom system

We consider a pair of identical two-level atoms interacting with a scalar field in one dimension, separated by a distance $x_{21}$. We restrict our attention to states where one atom is excited and the other is in the ground state, in symmetric or anti-symmetric combinations. We obtain exact collective decaying states, belonging to a complex spectral representation of the Hamiltonian. The imaginary parts of the eigenvalues give the decay rates, and the real parts give the average energy of the collective states. In one dimension there is strong interference between the fields emitted by the atoms, leading to long-range cooperative effects. The decay rates and the energy oscillate with the distance $x_{21}$. Depending on $x_{21}$, the decay rates will either decrease, vanish or increase as compared with the one-atom decay rate. We have sub- and super-radiance at periodic intervals. Our model may be used to study two-cavity electron wave-guides. The vanishing of the collective decay rates then suggests the possibility of obtaining stable configurations, where an electron is trapped inside the two cavities.Comment: 14 pages, 14 figures, submitted to Phys.

Decay modes of two repulsively interacting bosons

We study the decay of two repulsively interacting bosons tunneling through a delta potential barrier by direct numerical solution of the time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation. The solutions are analyzed according to the regions of particle presence: both particles inside the trap (in-in), one particle in and one particle out (in-out), and both particles outside (out-out). It is shown that the in-in probability is dominated by exponential decay, and its decay rate is predicted very well from outgoing boundary conditions. Up to a certain range of interaction strength the decay of in-out probability is dominated by the single particle decay mode. The decay mechanisms are adequately described by simple models.Comment: 18 pages, 13 figure

2\sqrt{2}×\times2R45∘\sqrt{2}R45^\circ surface reconstruction and electronic structure of BaSnO3_3 film

We studied surface and electronic structures of barium stannate (BaSnO$_3$) thin-film by low energy electron diffraction (LEED), and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) techniques. BaSnO$_3$/Ba$_{0.96}$La$_{0.04}$SnO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ (10 nm/100 nm/0.5 mm) samples were grown using pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) method and were \emph{ex-situ} transferred from PLD chamber to ultra-high vacuum (UHV) chambers for annealing, LEED and ARPES studies. UHV annealing starting from 300$^{\circ}$C up to 550$^{\circ}$C, followed by LEED and ARPES measurements show 1$\times$1 surfaces with non-dispersive energy-momentum bands. The 1$\times$1 surface reconstructs into a $\sqrt{2}$$\times$$\sqrt{2}R45^\circ$ one at the annealing temperature of 700$^{\circ}$C where the ARPES data shows clear dispersive bands with valence band maximum located around 3.3 eV below Fermi level. While the $\sqrt{2}$$\times$$\sqrt{2}R45^\circ$ surface reconstruction is stable under further UHV annealing, it is reversed to 1$\times$1 surface by annealing the sample in 400 mTorr oxygen at 600$^{\circ}$C. Another UHV annealing at 600$^{\circ}$C followed by LEED and ARPES measurements, suggests that LEED $\sqrt{2}$$\times$$\sqrt{2}R45^\circ$ surface reconstruction and ARPES dispersive bands are reproduced. Our results provide a better picture of electronic structure of BaSnO$_3$ surface and are suggestive of role of oxygen vacancies in the reversible $\sqrt{2}$$\times$$\sqrt{2}R45^\circ$ surface reconstruction.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figures, Journa

Computability of entropy and information in classical Hamiltonian systems

We consider the computability of entropy and information in classical Hamiltonian systems. We define the information part and total information capacity part of entropy in classical Hamiltonian systems using relative information under a computable discrete partition. Using a recursively enumerable nonrecursive set it is shown that even though the initial probability distribution, entropy, Hamiltonian and its partial derivatives are computable under a computable partition, the time evolution of its information capacity under the original partition can grow faster than any recursive function. This implies that even though the probability measure and information are conserved in classical Hamiltonian time evolution we might not actually compute the information with respect to the original computable partition
