Process-independent strong running coupling
2016
We unify two widely different approaches to understanding the infrared behaviour of quantum chromodynamics (QCD), one essentially phenomenological, based on data, and the other computational, realised via quantum field equations in the continuum theory. Using the latter, we explain and calculate a process-independent running-coupling for QCD, a new type of effective charge that is an analogue of the Gell-Mann--Low effective coupling in quantum electrodynamics. The result is almost identical to the process-dependent effective charge defined via the Bjorken sum rule, which provides one of the most basic constraints on our knowledge of nucleon spin structure. This reveals the Bjorken sum to be…
Coherence resonance in Bonhoeffer-Van der Pol circuit
2009
International audience; A nonlinear electronic circuit simulating the neuronal activity in a noisy environment is proposed. This electronic circuit is exactly ruled by the set of Bonhoeffer-Van Der Pol equations and is excited with a Gaussian noise. Without external deterministic stimuli, it is shown that the circuit exhibits the so-called 'coherence resonance' phenomenon.
Analytic high-order Douglas–Kroll–Hess electric field gradients
2007
In this work we present a comprehensive study of analytical electric field gradients in hydrogen halides calculated within the high-order Douglas-Kroll-Hess (DKH) scalar-relativistic approach taking picture-change effects analytically into account. We demonstrate the technical feasibility and reliability of a high-order DKH unitary transformation for the property integrals. The convergence behavior of the DKH property expansion is discussed close to the basis set limit and conditions ensuring picture-change-corrected results are determined. Numerical results are presented, which show that the DKH property expansion converges rapidly toward the reference values provided by four-component met…
Action-Angle Variables
2001
In the following we will assume that the Hamiltonian does not depend explicitly on time; ∂H/∂t = 0. Then we know that the characteristic function W(q i , P i ) is the generator of a canonical transformation to new constant momenta P i , (all Q i , are ignorable), and the new Hamiltonian depends only on the P i ,: H = K = K(P i ). Besides, the following canonical equations are valid: $$ \dot Q_i = \frac{{\partial K}} {{\partial P_i }} = v_i = const. $$ (1) $$ \dot P_i = \frac{{\partial K}} {{\partial Q_i }} = 0. $$ (2)
Types of Motion in the Oblate Planet Problem
1985
We consider a mass point in the gravitational field of an oblate planet and in a meridianal plane. The Hamiltonian of the problem is: $$ \frac{1}{2}\left( {p_r^2 + \frac{{p_{\theta }^2}}{{{r^2}}}} \right) - \frac{1}{r} - \frac{\varepsilon }{{{r^3}}}\left( {1 - 3{{\sin }^2}\theta } \right) $$ .
Novel patterns for vector mesons from the large-Nc limit
2008
We report on a relation between the decay constants of \rho-like J^{PC}=1^{--} vector mesons, which arises solely from the perturbative analysis of the VV, TT and VT correlators at order \alpha_s^0 in the large-N_c limit. We find f_{V}^T/f_{V}=1/\sqrt{2} for highly excited states together with a pattern of alternation in sign. Quite remarkably, recent lattice determinations reported f_{\rho}^T/f_{\rho}=0.72(2), in excellent agreement with our large-N_c result. This seems to suggest a pattern like f_{Vn}^T/f_{Vn}=(-1)^n/\sqrt{2} for the whole (1^{--}) states. In order to test this conjecture in real QCD we construct a set of spectral sum rules, which turn out to comply nicely with this scena…
Pizza-cutter’s problem and Hamiltonian paths
2019
Summary. The pizza-cutter’s problem is to determine the maximum number of pieces that can be made with n straight cuts through a circular pizza, regardless of the size and shape of the pieces. For ...
Commutator anomalies and the Fock bundle
1990
We show that the anomalous finite gauge transformations can be realized as linear operators acting on sections of the bundle of fermionic Fock spaces parametrized by vector potentials, and more generally, by splittings of the fermionic one-particle space into a pair of complementary subspaces. On the Lie algebra level we show that the construction leads to the standard formula for the relevant commutator anomalies.
An example of cancellation of infinities in the star-quantization of fields
1993
Within the *-quantization framework, it is shown how to remove some of the divergences occurring in theλo 2 4 -theory by introducing aλ-dependent *-product cohomologically equivalent to the normal *-product.
Appearances of pseudo-bosons from Black-Scholes equation
2016
It is a well known fact that the Black-Scholes equation admits an alternative representation as a Schr\"odinger equation expressed in terms of a non self-adjoint hamiltonian. We show how {\em pseudo-bosons}, linear or not, naturally arise in this context, and how they can be used in the computation of the pricing kernel.
