Quantum and Classical Statistical Mechanics of the Non-Linear Schrödinger, Sinh-Gordon and Sine-Gordon Equations
1985
We are going to describe our work on the quantum and classical statistical mechanics of some exactly integrable non-linear one dimensional systems. The simplest is the non-linear Schrodinger equation (NLS) $$i{\psi _t} = - {\psi _{XX}} + 2c{\psi ^ + }\psi \psi $$ (1) where c, the coupling constant, is positive. The others are the sine- and sinh-Gordon equations (sG and shG) $${\phi _{xx}} - {\phi _{tt}} = {m^2}\sin \phi $$ (1.2) $${\phi _{xx}} - {\phi _{tt}} = {m^2}\sinh \phi $$ (1.3)
Stochastic response determination of nonlinear oscillators with fractional derivatives elements via the Wiener path integral
2014
A novel approximate analytical technique for determining the non-stationary response probability density function (PDF) of randomly excited linear and nonlinear oscillators endowed with fractional derivatives elements is developed. Specifically, the concept of the Wiener path integral in conjunction with a variational formulation is utilized to derive an approximate closed form solution for the system response non-stationary PDF. Notably, the determination of the non-stationary response PDF is accomplished without the need to advance the solution in short time steps as it is required by the existing alternative numerical path integral solution schemes which rely on a discrete version of the…
Solving fractional Schroedinger-type spectral problems: Cauchy oscillator and Cauchy well
2014
This paper is a direct offspring of Ref. [J. Math. Phys. 54, 072103, (2013)] where basic tenets of the nonlocally induced random and quantum dynamics were analyzed. A number of mentions was maid with respect to various inconsistencies and faulty statements omnipresent in the literature devoted to so-called fractional quantum mechanics spectral problems. Presently, we give a decisive computer-assisted proof, for an exemplary finite and ultimately infinite Cauchy well problem, that spectral solutions proposed so far were plainly wrong. As a constructive input, we provide an explicit spectral solution of the finite Cauchy well. The infinite well emerges as a limiting case in a sequence of deep…
