Holographic non-relativistic fermionic fixed point and bulk dipole coupling

Inspired by the recently discovered non-relativistic fermionic fixed points, we investigate how the presence of bulk dipole coupling modifies the spectral function at one of these novel fixed points. As a result, although the infinite flat band is always visible in the presence of the bulk dipole coupling as well as chemical potential, the band is modified in a remarkable way at small momenta up to the order of magnitude of bulk dipole coupling. On the other hand, like a phoenix, a new Fermi surface sprouts from the formed gap when the bulk dipole coupling is pushed up further such as to overshadow the charge parameter, which is obviously different from what is found at the relativistic fixed points.Comment: JHEP style, 1+17 pages, 9 figures, 1 table, typos corrected, references added, version to appear in JHE

Block-block entanglement and quantum phase transitions in one-dimensional extended Hubbard model

In this paper, we study block-block entanglement in the ground state of one-dimensional extended Hubbard model. Our results show that the phase diagram derived from the block-block entanglement manifests richer structure than that of the local (single site) entanglement because it comprises nonlocal correlation. Besides phases characterized by the charge-density-wave, the spin-density-wave, and phase-separation, which can be sketched out by the local entanglement, singlet superconductivity phase could be identified on the contour map of the block-block entanglement. Scaling analysis shows that ${\rm log}_2(l)$ behavior of the block-block entanglement may exist in both non-critical and the critical regions, while some local extremum are induced by the finite-size effect. We also study the block-block entanglement defined in the momentum space and discuss its relation to the phase transition from singlet superconducting state to the charge-density-wave state.Comment: 8 pages, 9 figure

Entanglement and quantum phase transition in the extended Hubbard model

We study quantum entanglement in one-dimensional correlated fermionic system. Our results show, for the first time, that entanglement can be used to identify quantum phase transitions in fermionic systems.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure

Bott periodicity and stable quantum classes

We use Bott periodicity to relate previously defined quantum classes to certain "exotic Chern classes" on $BU$. This provides an interesting computational and theoretical framework for some Gromov-Witten invariants connected with cohomological field theories. This framework has applications to study of higher dimensional, Hamiltonian rigidity aspects of Hofer geometry of $\mathbb{CP} ^{n}$, one of which we discuss here.Comment: prepublication versio

Desenvolvimento sustentável da Bacia Leiteira de Nossa Senhora da Glória no semi-árido sergipano.

Foram realizados dois encontros com técnicos e produtores para resgatar a história da Bacia Leiteira de Nossa Senhora da Glória e subsidiar o início dos trabalhos de rede de referência do Projeto Glória. Nos relatos e debates alguns temas foram amplamente discutidos: água, alimentação do gado, políticas públicas, mercado e agrotecnologia. Através das discussões pode-se concluir que é necessário um trabalho mais participativo para que técnicos e produtores encontrem tecnologias adequadas e se apropriem delas para alcançar a sustentabilidade da Bacia Leiteira de Nossa Senhora da Glória.1 CD-ROM

Cooper pairing near charged black holes

We show that a quartic contact interaction between charged fermions can lead to Cooper pairing and a superconducting instability in the background of a charged asymptotically Anti-de Sitter black hole. For a massless fermion we obtain the zero mode analytically and compute the dependence of the critical temperature T_c on the charge of the fermion. The instability we find occurs at charges above a critical value, where the fermion dispersion relation near the Fermi surface is linear. The critical temperature goes to zero as the marginal Fermi liquid is approached, together with the density of states at the Fermi surface. Besides the charge, the critical temperature is controlled by a four point function of a fermionic operator in the dual strongly coupled field theory.Comment: 1+33 pages, 4 figure

Black-hole dynamics in BHT massive gravity

Using an exact Vaidya-type null-dust solution, we study the area and entropy laws for dynamical black holes defined by a future outer trapping horizon in (2+1)-dimensional Bergshoeff-Hohm-Townsend (BHT) massive gravity. We consider the theory admitting a degenerate (anti-)de Sitter vacuum and pure BHT gravity. It is shown that, while the area of a black hole decreases by the injection of a null dust with positive energy density in several cases, the Wald-Kodama dynamical entropy always increases.Comment: 7 pages, 1 figur

Inclusive and Direct Photons in S + Au Central Collisions at 200A GeV/c

A hadron and string cascade model, JPCIAE, which is based on LUND string model, PYTHIA event generator especially, is used to study both inclusive photon production and direct photon production in 200A GeV S + Au central collisions. The model takes into account the photon production from the partonic QCD scattering process, the hadronic final-state interaction, and the hadronic decay and deals with them consistently. The results of JPCIAE model reproduce successfully both the WA93 data of low p_T inclusive photon distribution and the WA80 data of transverse momentum dependent upper limit of direct photon. The photon production from different decay channels is investigated for both direct and inclusive photons. We have discussed the effects of the partonic QCD scattering and the hadronic final-state interaction on direct photon production as well.Comment: 6 pages with 5 figure

Holographic Superconductors with Power-Maxwell field

With the Sturm-Liouville analytical and numerical methods, we investigate the behaviors of the holographic superconductors by introducing a complex charged scalar field coupled with a Power-Maxwell field in the background of $d$-dimensional Schwarzschild AdS black hole. We note that the Power-Maxwell field takes the special asymptotical solution near boundary which is different from all known cases. We find that the larger power parameter $q$ for the Power-Maxwell field makes it harder for the scalar hair to be condensated. We also find that, for different $q$, the critical exponent of the system is still 1/2, which seems to be an universal property for various nonlinear electrodynamics if the scalar field takes the form of this paper.Comment: 14 pages, 1 figure, and 2 table
