Fractional Generalization of Gradient Systems

We consider a fractional generalization of gradient systems. We use differential forms and exterior derivatives of fractional orders. Examples of fractional gradient systems are considered. We describe the stationary states of these systems.Comment: 11 pages, LaTe

Fractional Variations for Dynamical Systems: Hamilton and Lagrange Approaches

Fractional generalization of an exterior derivative for calculus of variations is defined. The Hamilton and Lagrange approaches are considered. Fractional Hamilton and Euler-Lagrange equations are derived. Fractional equations of motion are obtained by fractional variation of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian that have only integer derivatives.Comment: 21 pages, LaTe

Path Integral for Quantum Operations

In this paper we consider a phase space path integral for general time-dependent quantum operations, not necessarily unitary. We obtain the path integral for a completely positive quantum operation satisfied Lindblad equation (quantum Markovian master equation). We consider the path integral for quantum operation with a simple infinitesimal generator.Comment: 24 pages, LaTe

Phase-Space Metric for Non-Hamiltonian Systems

We consider an invariant skew-symmetric phase-space metric for non-Hamiltonian systems. We say that the metric is an invariant if the metric tensor field is an integral of motion. We derive the time-dependent skew-symmetric phase-space metric that satisfies the Jacobi identity. The example of non-Hamiltonian systems with linear friction term is considered.Comment: 12 page

Spaces of quasi-exponentials and representations of the Yangian Y(gl_N)

We consider a tensor product V(b)= \otimes_{i=1}^n\C^N(b_i) of the Yangian $Y(gl_N)$ evaluation vector representations. We consider the action of the commutative Bethe subalgebra $B^q \subset Y(gl_N)$ on a $gl_N$-weight subspace $V(b)_\lambda \subset V(b)$ of weight $\lambda$. Here the Bethe algebra depends on the parameters $q=(q_1,...,q_N)$. We identify the $B^q$-module $V(b)_\lambda$ with the regular representation of the algebra of functions on a fiber of a suitable discrete Wronski map. If $q=(1,...,1)$, we study the action of $B^{q=1}$ on a space $V(b)^{sing}_\lambda$ of singular vectors of a certain weight. Again, we identify the $B^{q=1}$-module $V(b)^{sing}_\lambda$ with the regular representation of the algebra of functions on a fiber of another suitable discrete Wronski map. These results we announced earlier in relation with a description of the quantum equivariant cohomology of the cotangent bundle of a partial flag variety and a description of commutative subalgebras of the group algebra of a symmetric group.Comment: Latex, 23 pages, misprints correcte

Fractional Derivative as Fractional Power of Derivative

Definitions of fractional derivatives as fractional powers of derivative operators are suggested. The Taylor series and Fourier series are used to define fractional power of self-adjoint derivative operator. The Fourier integrals and Weyl quantization procedure are applied to derive the definition of fractional derivative operator. Fractional generalization of concept of stability is considered.Comment: 20 pages, LaTe
