Solution of Coulomb Path Integral in Momentum Space
The path integral for a point particle in a Coulomb potential is solved in
momentum space. The solution permits us to give for the first time a negative
answer to an old question of quantum mechanics in curved spaces raised in 1957
by DeWitt, whether the Hamiltonian of a particle in a curved space contains an
additional term proportional to the curvature scalar . We show that this
would cause experimentally wrong level spacings in the hydrogen atom. Our
solution also gives a first experimental confirmation of the correctness of the
measure of integration in path integrals in curved space implied by a recently
discovered nonholonomic mapping principle.Comment: Author Information under

Perturbative Calculation of Multi-Loop Feynman Diagrams. New Type of Expansions for Critical Exponents
We show that the calculation of L-loop Feynman integrals in D dimensions can
be reduced to a series of matrix multiplications in D times L dimensions. This
gives rise to a new type of expansions for the critical exponents in three
dimensions in which all coefficients can be calculated exactly.Comment: Author Information under

Strong Enhancement of High Voltage Electronic Transport in Chiral Electrical Nanotube Superlattices
We consider metallic carbon nanotubes with an overlying unidirectional
electrical chiral (wavevector out of the radial direction, where the axial
direction is included) superlattice potential. We show that for superlattices
with a wavevector close to the axial direction, the electron velocity assumes
the same value as for nanotubes without superlattice. Due to an increased
number of phonons with different momenta but lower electron-phonon scattering
probabilities, we obtain a large enhancement of the high-voltage conductance
and current sustainability in comparison with the nanotube without
superlattice.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, published versio
