Analytic solutions and Singularity formation for the Peakon b--Family equations
2012
This paper deals with the well-posedness of the b-family equation in analytic function spaces. Using the Abstract Cauchy-Kowalewski theorem we prove that the b-family equation admits, locally in time, a unique analytic solution. Moreover, if the initial data is real analytic and it belongs to H s with s>3/2, and the momentum density u 0-u 0, xx does not change sign, we prove that the solution stays analytic globally in time, for b≥1. Using pseudospectral numerical methods, we study, also, the singularity formation for the b-family equations with the singularity tracking method. This method allows us to follow the process of the singularity formation in the complex plane as the singularity a…
Effects of nonlinear sweep in the Landau-Zener-Stueckelberg effect
2002
We study the Landau-Zener-Stueckelberg (LZS) effect for a two-level system with a time-dependent nonlinear bias field (the sweep function) W(t). Our main concern is to investigate the influence of the nonlinearity of W(t) on the probability P to remain in the initial state. The dimensionless quantity epsilon = pi Delta ^2/(2 hbar v) depends on the coupling Delta of both levels and on the sweep rate v. For fast sweep rates, i.e., epsilon << l and monotonic, analytic sweep functions linearizable in the vicinity of the resonance we find the transition probability 1-P ~= epsilon (1+a), where a>0 is the correction to the LSZ result due to the nonlinearity of the sweep. Further increase …
Coupled plasmonic graphene wires: theoretical study including complex frequencies and field distributions of bright and dark surface plasmons
2020
Theoretical research on localized surface plasmons (LSPs) supported by a structure formed by two parallel dielectric wires with a circular cross section wrapped with a graphene sheet has an impact in the practical realm. Here, LSPs are represented in the form of an infinite series of cylindrical multipole partial waves linked to each of the graphene wires. To obtain the kinematics (complex eigenfrequencies) and dynamic characteristics (field distributions) of the LSPs, we consider the analytic extension to the complex plane of the solution to the boundary value problem. The lower frequency LSP group is formed by four branches, two of them corresponding to bright modes and the others to dark…
Regularized Euler-alpha motion of an infinite array of vortex sheets
2016
We consider the Euler- $$\alpha $$ regularization of the Birkhoff–Rott equation and compare its solutions with the dynamics of the non regularized vortex-sheet. For a flow induced by an infinite array of planar vortex-sheets we analyze the complex singularities of the solutions.Through the singularity tracking method we show that the regularized solution has several complex singularities that approach the real axis. We relate their presence to the formation of two high-curvature points in the vortex sheet during the roll-up phenomenon.
A simple microsuperspace model in 2 + 1 spacetime dimensions
1992
Abstract We quantize the closed Friedmann model in 2 + 1 spacetime dimensions using euclidean path-integral approach and a simple microsuperspace model. A relationship between integration measure and operator ordering in the Wheeler-DeWitt equation is found within our model. Solutions to the Wheeler-DeWitt equation are exactly reproduced from the path integral using suitable integration contours in the complex plane.
Ghost spectral function from the spectral Dyson-Schwinger equation
2021
We compute the ghost spectral function in Yang-Mills theory by solving the corresponding Dyson-Schwinger equation for a given input gluon spectral function. The results encompass both scaling and decoupling solutions for the gluon propagator input. The resulting ghost spectral function displays a particle peak at vanishing momentum and a negative scattering spectrum, whose infrared and ultraviolet tails are obtained analytically. The ghost dressing function is computed in the entire complex plane, and its salient features are identified and discussed.
Sweeping the Space of Admissible Quark Mass Matrices
2002
We propose a new and efficient method of reconstructing quark mass matrices from their eigenvalues and a complete set of mixing observables. By a combination of the principle of NNI (nearest neighbour interaction) bases which are known to cover the general case, and of the polar decomposition theorem that allows to convert arbitrary nonsingular matrices to triangular form, we achieve a parameterization where the remaining freedom is reduced to one complex parameter. While this parameter runs through the domain bounded by a circle with radius R determined by the up-quark masses around the origin in the complex plane one sweeps the space of all mass matrices compatible with the given set of d…
Helicity Amplitudes of the Lambda(1670) and two Lambda(1405) as dynamically generated resonances
2010
We determine the helicity amplitudes A(1/2) and radiative decay widths in the transition Lambda(1670) -> gamma Y (Y = Lambda or Sigma(0)). The Lambda(1670) is treated as a dynamically generated resonance in meson-baryon chiral dynamics. We obtain the radiative decay widths of the Lambda(1670) to gamma Lambda as 2 +/- 1 keV and to -gamma Sigma(0) as 120 +/- 50 keV. Also, the Q(2)-dependence of the helicity amplitudes A(1/2) is calculated. We find that the K Xi component in the Lambda(1670) structure, mainly responsible for the dynamical generation of this resonance, is also responsible for the significant suppression of the decay ratio Gamma(gamma A)/Gamma(gamma Sigma 0). A measurement of th…
Study of a possible S=+1 dynamically generated baryonic resonance
2005
Starting from the lowest order chiral Lagrangian for the interaction of the baryon decuplet with the octet of pseudoscalar mesons we find an attractive interaction in the $\Delta K$ channel with L=0 and I=1, while the interaction is repulsive for I=2. The attractive interaction leads to a pole in the second Riemann sheet of the complex plane and manifests itself in a large strength of the $\Delta K$ scattering amplitude close to the $\Delta K$ threshold, which is not the case for I=2. However, we also make a study of uncertainties in the model and conclude that the existence of this pole depends sensitively upon the input used and can disappear within reasonable variations of the input para…
Chiral unitary approach to hadron spectroscopy
2002
The s-wave meson-baryon interaction in the $S = -1$, $S= 0$ and $S= -2$ sectors is studied by means of coupled channels, using the lowest-order chiral Lagrangian and the N/D method or equivalently the Bethe-Salpeter equation to implement unitarity. This chiral approach leads to the dynamical generation of the $\Lambda (1405)$, $\Lambda(1670)$ and $\Sigma(1620)$ states for $S = -1$, the $N^*(1535)$ for $S= 0$ and the $\Xi(1620)$ for $S= -2$. We look for poles in the complex plane and extract the couplings of the resonances to the different final states. This allows identifying the $\Lambda (1405)$ and the $\Lambda(1670)$ resonances with $\bar{K}N$ and $K\Xi$ quasibound states, respectively. …
