The Nonlinear σ Model
1989
The nonlinear (principal) σ model has been for a long time a theoretical laboratory to test different approaches for quantizing classical field theories. Here we shall discuss as an application of the current algebra representation theory a construction of the quantized σ model.
Two-parameter determinant representation of seventh order rogue wave solutions of the NLS equation
2013
We present a new representation of solutions of focusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLS) equation as a quotient of two determinants. We construct families of quasi-rational solutions of the NLS equation depending on two parameters, a and b. We construct, for the first time, analytical expressions of Peregrine breather of order 7 and multi-rogue waves by deformation of parameters. These expressions make possible to understand the behavior of the solutions. In the case of the Peregrine breather of order 7, it is shown for great values of parameters a or b the appearance of the Peregrine breather of order 5. 35Q55; 37K10
A Symmetry Adapted Approach to the Dynamic Jahn-Teller Problem
2011
In this article we present a symmetry-adapted approach aimed to the accurate solution of the dynamic Jahn-Teller (JT) problem. The algorithm for the solution of the eigen-problem takes full advantage of the point symmetry arguments. The system under consideration is supposed to consist of a set of electronic levels \({\Gamma }_{1},{\Gamma }_{2}\ldots {\Gamma }_{n}\) labeled by the irreducible representations (irreps) of the actual point group, mixed by the active JT and pseudo JT vibrational modes \({\Gamma }_{1},{\Gamma }_{2}\ldots {\Gamma }_{f}\) (vibrational irreps). The bosonic creation operators b +(Γγ) are transformed as components γ of the vibrational irrep Γ. The first excited vibra…
Obtaining the Weyl tensor from the Bel-Robinson tensor
2010
The algebraic study of the Bel-Robinson tensor proposed and initiated in a previous work (Gen. Relativ. Gravit. {\bf 41}, see ref [11]) is achieved. The canonical form of the different algebraic types is obtained in terms of Bel-Robinson eigen-tensors. An algorithmic determination of the Weyl tensor from the Bel-Robinson tensor is presented.
The loop-tree duality at work
2014
We review the recent developments of the loop-tree duality method, focussing our discussion on analysing the singular behaviour of the loop integrand of the dual representation of one-loop integrals and scattering amplitudes. We show that within the loop-tree duality method there is a partial cancellation of singularities at the integrand level among the different components of the corresponding dual representation. The remaining threshold and infrared singularities are restricted to a finite region of the loop momentum space, which is of the size of the external momenta and can be mapped to the phase-space of real corrections to cancel the soft and collinear divergences.
Dynamics of a Quantum Particle in Asymmetric Bistable Potential with Environmental Noise
2011
In this work we analyze the dynamics of a quantum particle subject to an asymmetric bistable potential and interacting with a thermal reservoir. We obtain the time evolution of the population distributions in both energy and position eigenstates of the particle, for different values of the coupling strength with the thermal bath. The calculation is carried out using the Feynman-Vernon functional under the discrete variable representation.
Graphical representation of non-absorbing polarization devices
2000
A graphical representation of general non-absorbing polarization devices operating under normal plane-wave incidence is presented. The representation is based on a four-dimensional spherical parametrization of the Jones matrix of this kind of polarization devices. The graphical representation takes the form of a solid cylinder. The projection of the point representing the device over the base of the cylinder gives the corresponding polarization eigenvectors represented in the complex plane, while the height of the point in the cylinder is the phase of its eigenvalue. Some simple examples like wave-plates and rotators are discussed. The representation may represent a useful tool to identify …
The local group K(4) in the algebraic approach to vibrational spectra of tetrahedral molecules: Application to silane
1992
Abstract In a previous paper, Michelot and Moret-Bailly (J. Phys., 48, 51 (1987)) proposed an algebraic treatment of vibrational stretching modes in polyatomic molecules. They used the properties of the group chain U(p + 1) ⊃ U(p) ⊃ S(p) ⊃ G for the study of p identical oscillators. The molecule, with p equivalent bonds described as a system of p oscillators, has a symmetry group G. We develop in this paper an application to p = 4 equivalent oscillators. We show that, for a tetrahedral molecule, the group chain U(5) ⊃ U(4) ⊃ S(4) ≈ Td can be completed, in a local point of view, with a particular group K(4): U(5) ⊃ U(4) ⊃ K(4) ⊃ S(4) ≈ T d This group provides us with available labels which c…
Bridging the Gap Between Atomistic and Coarse-Grained Models of Polymers: Status and Perspectives
2000
Recent developments that increase the time and distance scales accessible in the simulations of specific polymers are reviewed. Several different techniques are similar in that they replace a model expressed in fully atomistic detail with a coarse-grained model of the same polymer, atomistic → coarse-grained (and beyond!), thereby increasing the time and distance scales accessible within the expenditure of reasonable computational resources. The bridge represented by the right-pointing arrow can be constructed via different procedures, which are reviewed here. The review also considers the status of methods which reverse this arrow, atomistic ← coarse-grained. This “reverse-mapping” recover…
Master equation for cascade quantum channels: a collisional approach
2012
It has been recently shown that collisional models can be used to derive a general form for the master equations which describe the reduced time evolution of a composite multipartite quantum system, whose components "propagate" in an environmental medium which induces correlations among them via a cascade mechanism. Here we analyze the fundamental assumptions of this approach showing how some of them can be lifted when passing into a proper interaction picture representation.
