A family of rotation numbers for discrete random dynamics on the circle
We revisit the problem of well-defining rotation numbers for discrete random
dynamical systems on the circle. We show that, contrasting with deterministic
systems, the topological (i.e. based on Poincar\'{e} lifts) approach does
depend on the choice of lifts (e.g. continuously for nonatomic randomness).
Furthermore, the winding orbit rotation number does not agree with the
topological rotation number. Existence and conversion formulae between these
distinct numbers are presented. Finally, we prove a sampling in time theorem
which recover the rotation number of continuous Stratonovich stochastic
dynamical systems on out of its time discretisation of the flow.Comment: 15 page
Lorentz-violating nonminimal coupling contributions in mesonic hydrogen atoms and generation of photon higher-order derivative terms
We have studied the contributions of Lorentz-violating CPT-odd and CPT-even
nonminimal couplings to the energy spectrum of the mesonic hydrogen and the
higher-order radiative corrections to the effective action of the photon sector
of a Lorentz-violating version of the scalar electrodynamics. By considering
the complex scalar field describes charged mesons (pion or kaon), the
non-relativistic limit of the model allows to attain upper-bounds by analyzing
its contribution to the mesonic hydrogen energy. By using the experimental data
for the strong correction shift and the pure QED transitions , the best upper-bound for the CPT-odd coupling is
and for the CPT-even one is
. Besides, the CPT-odd radiative correction to the
photon action is a dimension-5 operator which looks like a higher-order
Carroll-Field-Jackiw term. The CPT-even radiative contribution to the photon
effective action is a dimension-6 operator which would be a higher-order
derivative version of the minimal CPT-even term of the standard model

The Quantum Algebraic Structure of the Twisted XXZ Chain
We consider the Quantum Inverse Scattering Method with a new R-matrix
depending on two parameters and . We find that the underlying algebraic
structure is the two-parameter deformed algebra enlarged by
introducing an element belonging to the centre. The corresponding Hamiltonian
describes the spin-1/2 XXZ model with twisted periodic boundary conditions.Comment: LateX file, 9 pages, Minor changes (including authors` names in the
