On the critical behavior for inhomogeneous wave inequalities with Hardy potential in an exterior domain
2021
Abstract We study the wave inequality with a Hardy potential ∂ t t u − Δ u + λ | x | 2 u ≥ | u | p in ( 0 , ∞ ) × Ω , $$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \partial_{tt}u-{\it\Delta} u+\frac{\lambda}{|x|^2}u\geq |u|^p\quad \mbox{in } (0,\infty)\times {\it\Omega}, \end{array}$$ where Ω is the exterior of the unit ball in ℝ N , N ≥ 2, p > 1, and λ ≥ − N − 2 2 2 $\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \left(\frac{N-2}{2}\right)^2 \end{array}$ , under the inhomogeneous boundary condition α ∂ u ∂ ν ( t , x ) + β u ( t , x ) ≥ w ( x ) on ( 0 , ∞ ) × ∂ Ω , $$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \alpha \frac{\partial u}{\partial \nu}(t,x)+\beta u(t,x)\geq w(x)\quad\mbox{on } (0,\infty)\times \partial{\it\Omega}, \e…
Effect of reactant spatial distribution in theA+B→0reaction kinetics in one dimension with Coulomb interaction
1996
The effect of nonequilibrium charge screening in the kinetics of the one-dimensional, diffusion-controlled $A+B\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0$ reaction between charged reactants in solids and liquids is studied. The incorrectness of the static, Debye-H\"uckel theory is shown. Our microscopic formalism is based on the Kirkwood superposition approximation for three-particle densities and the self-consistent treatment of the electrostatic interactions defined by the nonuniform spatial distribution of similar and dissimilar reactants treated in terms of the relevant joint correlation functions. Special attention is paid to the pattern formation due to a reaction-induced non-Poissonian fluctuation sp…
Localization-delocalization transition for disordered cubic harmonic lattices.
2012
We study numerically the disorder-induced localization-delocalization phase transitions that occur for mass and spring constant disorder in a three-dimensional cubic lattice with harmonic couplings. We show that, while the phase diagrams exhibit regions of stable and unstable waves, the universality of the transitions is the same for mass and spring constant disorder throughout all the phase boundaries. The combined value for the critical exponent of the localization lengths of $\nu = 1.550^{+0.020}_{-0.017}$ confirms the agreement with the universality class of the standard electronic Anderson model of localization. We further support our investigation with studies of the density of states…
A mode coupling analysis of the central peak at order disorder phase transitions
1993
The influence of local and translation invariant memory effects on the critical dynamics of a model undergoing a continous structural phase transition from a disordered (T>Tc) to an ordered distorted phase (T>Tc) is studied by mode coupling theory above the critical temperatureTc. It is shown that besides the existence of critical slowing-down modes there also exists a central peak as a consequence of correlations of the critical modes, increasing with the critical exponent γ when approachingTc. The dependence of the central peak on the wavevector\(\vec q\), temperatureT and on the spatial dimensiond is investigated. Ford=3 a scenario withlocal long time memory correlations is compared with…
Power law singularities inn-vector models
2012
Power law singularities and critical exponents in n-vector models are considered within a theoretical approach called GFD (grouping of Feynman diagrams) theory. It is discussed how possible values of the critical exponents can be related to specific n-vector models in this approach. A good agreement with the estimates of the perturbative renormalization group (RG) theory can be obtained. Predictions for corrections to scaling of the perturbative RG and GFD approaches are different. A nonperturbative proof is provided, supporting corrections to scaling of the GFD theory. Highly accurate experimental data very close to the λ-transition point in liquid helium, as well as the Goldstone mode sin…
Static freezing transition at a finite temperature in a quasi-one-dimensional deuteron glass.
1996
The dipolar freezing process of a quasi-one-dimensional betaine deuteron glass was studied using linear and nonlinear dielectric spectroscopy. The linear response as measured for frequencies $5\mathrm{mHz}l\ensuremath{\nu}l200\mathrm{MHz}$ was analyzed using the recently invented $\ensuremath{\delta}$ plot, providing evidence for a static freezing transition near 30 K. Measurements of the ergodic to nonergodic transition as well as of the incipient divergence of the nonlinear susceptibility yield independent confirmation of this quasistatic freezing transition temperature. The critical exponent describing the nonlinear behavior is found to be $\ensuremath{\gamma}\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\p…
Ising model universality for two-dimensional lattices
1993
We use the single-cluster Monte Carlo update algorithm to simulate the Ising model on two-dimensional Poissonian random lattices of Delaunay type with up to 80\,000 sites. By applying reweighting techniques and finite-size scaling analyses to time-series data near criticality, we obtain unambiguous support that the critical exponents for the random lattice agree with the exactly known exponents for regular lattices, i.e., that (lattice) universality holds for the two-dimensional Ising model.
The Ising transition in 2D simplicial quantum gravity - can Regge calculus be right?
1995
We report a high statistics simulation of Ising spins coupled to 2D quantum gravity in the Regge calculus approach using triangulated tori with up to $512^2$ vertices. For the constant area ensemble and the $dl/l$ functional measure we definitively can exclude the critical exponents of the Ising phase transition as predicted for dynamically triangulated surfaces. We rather find clear evidence that the critical exponents agree with the Onsager values for static regular lattices, independent of the coupling strength of an $R^2$ interaction term. For exploratory simulations using the lattice version of the Misner measure the situation is less clear.
Structure of chromomagnetic fields in the glasma
2014
The initial stage of a heavy ion collision is dominated by nonperturbatively strong chromoelectric and -magnetic fields. The spatial Wilson loop provides a gauge invariant observable to probe the dynamics of the longitudinal chromomagnetic field. We discuss recent results from a real time lattice calculation of the area-dependence of the expectation value of the spatial Wilson loop. We show that at relatively early times after the collision, a universal scaling as a function of the area emerges at large distances for very different initial conditions, with a nontrivial critical exponent. A similar behavior has earlier been seen in calculations of the gluon transverse momentum spectrum, whic…
Dynamic percolation transition induced by phase separation: A Monte Carlo analysis
1987
The percolation transition of geometric clusters in the three-dimensional, simple cubic, nearest neighbor Ising lattice gas model is investigated in the temperature and concentration region inside the coexistence curve. We consider “quenching experiments,” where the system starts from an initially completely random configuration (corresponding to equilibrium at infinite temperature), letting the system evolve at the considered temperature according to the Kawasaki “spinexchange” dynamics. Analyzing the distributionnl(t) of clusters of sizel at timet, we find that after a time of the order of about 100 Monte Carlo steps per site a percolation transition occurs at a concentration distinctly l…
