Analysis of the static and dynamic behaviour of a magnetic liquid seal
1985
A rotating shaft seal, using ferrofluid between biconical truncated magnetic poles, is analysed both in static and dynamic conditions. After solving Laplace's equation and allowing an approximate expression for the magnetic potential, the magnetic forces acting on the working fluid are obtained. It is thus possible to determine the baric field existing in static conditions and the highest tolerable pressure jump. In the case of dynamic working the flow is schematized by two interior regions, where the azimuthal velocity prevails, and four boundary layers on the walls, where meridional transport of fluid takes place. Assuming laminar motion, by means of a perturbation procedure it is possibl…
Energy relaxation in a? 4 with long range interactions
1995
We investigate the influence of long range interactions on the relaxation behaviour of a lattice model with an on-site potential ofϕ 4-type and “infinite” range harmonic interactions. For finite number of particlesN, it is shown that the autocorrelation functions of the fluctuations of the one-particle energiesE n(t) decays exponentially. The corresponding relaxation time τ is proportional toN and is given by τ(T, N) =Nτ0(T). The temperature dependent time scale τ0 can explicitly be related to the dynamics of a one-particle correlator of the noninteracting system. The results are derived using Mori-Zwanzig projection formalism. The corresponding memory kernel is calculated within a mode cou…
The spiked harmonic oscillatorV(r)=r 2+λr −4 as a challenge to perturbation theory
1991
The standard weak- and strong-coupling perturbation series are interpreted as extreme special cases of expansions obtainable within the framework of Rayleigh-Schroedinger perturbation theory with non-diagonal propagators and unspecified zero-order energies. The formalism of the latter type is then tested by our strongly singular example. It proves suitable for applications in the domain of virtually arbitrary couplings. A few related technicalities and especially the quadruple problem of convergence are also discussed.
Existence results for a nonlinear nonautonomous transmission problem via domain perturbation
2021
In this paper we study the existence and the analytic dependence upon domain perturbation of the solutions of a nonlinear nonautonomous transmission problem for the Laplace equation. The problem is defined in a pair of sets consisting of a perforated domain and an inclusion whose shape is determined by a suitable diffeomorphism $\phi$. First we analyse the case in which the inclusion is a fixed domain. Then we will perturb the inclusion and study the arising boundary value problem and the dependence of a specific family of solutions upon the perturbation parameter $\phi$.
Spin-orbit couplings within the equation-of-motion coupled-cluster framework: Theory, implementation, and benchmark calculations.
2015
We present a formalism and an implementation for calculating spin-orbit couplings (SOCs) within the EOM-CCSD (equation-of-motion coupled-cluster with single and double substitutions) approach. The following variants of EOM-CCSD are considered: EOM-CCSD for excitation energies (EOM-EE-CCSD), EOM-CCSD with spin-flip (EOM-SF-CCSD), EOM-CCSD for ionization potentials (EOM-IP-CCSD) and electron attachment (EOM-EA-CCSD). We employ a perturbative approach in which the SOCs are computed as matrix elements of the respective part of the Breit-Pauli Hamiltonian using zeroth-order non-relativistic wave functions. We follow the expectation-value approach rather than the response-theory formulation for p…
Equation-of-motion coupled cluster perturbation theory revisited
2014
The equation-of-motion coupled cluster (EOM-CC) framework has been used for deriving a novel series of perturbative corrections to the coupled cluster singles and doubles energy that formally con- verges towards the full configuration interaction energy limit. The series is based on a Møller-Plesset partitioning of the Hamiltonian and thus size extensive at any order in the perturbation, thereby rem- edying the major deficiency inherent to previous perturbation series based on the EOM-CC ansatz. © 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

On the convergence of perturbative coupled cluster triples expansions:Error cancellations in the CCSD(T) model and the importance of amplitude relaxa…
2015
Recently, we proposed a novel Lagrangian-based perturbation series-the CCSD(T-n) series-which systematically corrects the coupled cluster singles and doubles (CCSD) energy in orders of the Møller-Plesset fluctuation potential for effects due to triple excitations. In the present study, we report numerical results for the CCSD(T-n) series up through fourth order which show the predicted convergence trend throughout the series towards the energy of its target, the coupled cluster singles, doubles, and triples (CCSDT) model. Since effects due to the relaxation of the CCSD singles and doubles amplitudes enter the CCSD(T-n) series at fourth order (the CCSD(T-4) model), we are able to separate th…
Cosmological data analysis of f(R) gravity models
2009
A class of well-behaved modified gravity models with long enough matter domination epoch and a late-time accelerated expansion is confronted with SNIa, CMB, SDSS, BAO and H(z) galaxy ages data, as well as current measurements of the linear growth of structure. We show that the combination of geometrical probes and growth data exploited here allows to rule out f(R) gravity models, in particular, the logarithmic of curvature model. We also apply solar system tests to the models in agreement with the cosmological data. We find that the exponential of the inverse of the curvature model satisfies all the observational tests considered and we derive the allowed range of parameters. Current data s…
Renormalisation group study of Anderson localisation in two dimensions: effect of second-order terms
1981
The localisation of electrons moving in a random potential is studied in two dimensions using the real space renormalisation group method of Domany and Sarker. The effects of the cell size and of the second-order terms in the perturbation expansion are examined. While the method is not particularly sensitive to the cell size, its results depend crucially on the truncation of the perturbation series.
Self‐consistent intermediate Hamiltonians : A coupled cluster type formulation of the singles and doubles configuration interaction matrix dressing
1995
This paper presents a new self‐consistent dressing of a singles and doubles configuration interaction matrix which insures size‐consistency, separability into closed‐shell subsystems if localized molecular orbitals (MOs) are used, and which includes all fourth order corrections. This method yields, among several schemes, a reformulation of the coupled cluster method, including fully the cluster operators of single and double excitations, and partially those of the triples (Bartlett’s algorithm named CCSDT‐1a). Further improvement can be easily included by adding exclusion principle violating corrections. Since it leads to a matrix diagonalization, the method behaves correctly in case of nea…
