Low-temperature spectrum of correlation lengths of the XXZ chain in the antiferromagnetic massive regime
2015
We consider the spectrum of correlation lengths of the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ XXZ chain in the antiferromagnetic massive regime. These are given as ratios of eigenvalues of the quantum transfer matrix of the model. The eigenvalues are determined by integrals over certain auxiliary functions and by their zeros. The auxiliary functions satisfy nonlinear integral equations. We analyse these nonlinear integral equations in the low-temperature limit. In this limit we can determine the auxiliary functions and the expressions for the eigenvalues as functions of a finite number of parameters which satisfy finite sets of algebraic equations, the so-called higher-level Bethe Ansatz equations. The behavio…
Space and Time Averaged Quantum Stress Tensor Fluctuations
2021
We extend previous work on the numerical diagonalization of quantum stress tensor operators in the Minkowski vacuum state, which considered operators averaged in a finite time interval, to operators averaged in a finite spacetime region. Since real experiments occur over finite volumes and durations, physically meaningful fluctuations may be obtained from stress tensor operators averaged by compactly supported sampling functions in space and time. The direct diagonalization, via a Bogoliubov transformation, gives the eigenvalues and the probabilities of measuring those eigenvalues in the vacuum state, from which the underlying probability distribution can be constructed. For the normal-orde…
On the thermal instability in a horizontal rectangular porous channel heated from below by a constant flux
2014
Published version of an article in the journal: Journal of Physics: Conference Series. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/501/1/012003 Open Access The onset of thermoconvective instability in a rectangular horizontal channel filled with a fluid-saturated porous medium is studied. The channel is heated from below with a constant flux. The top wall is maintained at a uniform constant temperature, while the lateral boundaries are permeable and perfectly conducting. The stability of the basic motionless state is analysed with respect to small-amplitude disturbances. The eigenvalue problem for the neutral stability condition is solved analytically for the n…
Continuous spectrum for a two phase eigenvalue problem with an indefinite and unbounded potential
2020
Abstract We consider a two phase eigenvalue problem driven by the ( p , q ) -Laplacian plus an indefinite and unbounded potential, and Robin boundary condition. Using a modification of the Nehari manifold method, we show that there exists a nontrivial open interval I ⊆ R such that every λ ∈ I is an eigenvalue with positive eigenfunctions. When we impose additional regularity conditions on the potential function and the boundary coefficient, we show that we have smooth eigenfunctions.
A family of complex potentials with real spectrum
1999
We consider a two-parameter non-Hermitian quantum mechanical Hamiltonian operator that is invariant under the combined effects of parity and time reversal transformations. Numerical investigation shows that for some values of the potential parameters the Hamiltonian operator supports real eigenvalues and localized eigenfunctions. In contrast with other parity times time reversal symmetric models which require special integration paths in the complex plane, our model is integrable along a line parallel to the real axis.
The inverse eigenvalue problem for a Hermitian reflexive matrix and the optimization problem
2016
The inverse eigenvalue problem and the associated optimal approximation problem for Hermitian reflexive matrices with respect to a normal {k+1}-potent matrix are considered. First, we study the existence of the solutions of the associated inverse eigenvalue problem and present an explicit form for them. Then, when such a solution exists, an expression for the solution to the corresponding optimal approximation problem is obtained.
Fast Decentralized Linear Functions via Successive Graph Shift Operators
2019
Decentralized signal processing performs learning tasks on data distributed over a multi-node network which can be represented by a graph. Implementing linear transformations emerges as a key task in a number of applications of decentralized signal processing. Recently, some decentralized methods have been proposed to accomplish that task by leveraging the notion of graph shift operator, which captures the local structure of the graph. However, existing approaches have some drawbacks such as considering special instances of linear transformations, or reducing the family of transformations by assuming that a shift matrix is given such that a subset of its eigenvectors spans the subspace of i…

An iterative method to construct Lusternik-Schnirelmann critical values is presented. Examples of its use to obtain numerical solutions to nonlinear eigenvalue problems and their bifurcation branches are given. peerReviewed
Algorithms for {K, s+1}-potent matrix constructions
2013
In this paper, we deal with {K, s + 1}-potent matrices. These matrices generalize all the following classes of matrices: k-potent matrices, periodic matrices, idempotent matrices, involutory matrices, centrosymmetric matrices, mirrorsymmetric matrices, circulant matrices, among others. Several applications of these classes of matrices can be found in the literature. We develop algorithms in order to compute {K, s + 1}-potent matrices and {K, s + 1}-potent linear combinations of {K, s + 1}-potent matrices. In addition, some examples are presented in order to show the numerical performance of the method. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
