Prediction of quantum many-body chaos in protactinium atom

2017

Energy level spectrum of protactinium atom (Pa, Z=91) is simulated with a CI calculation. Levels belonging to the separate manifolds of a given total angular momentum and parity $J^\pi$ exhibit distinct properties of many-body quantum chaos. Moreover, an extremely strong enhancement of small perturbations takes place. As an example, effective three-electron interaction is investigated and found to play a significant role in the system. Chaotic properties of the eigenstates allow one to develop a statistical theory and predict probabilities of different processes in chaotic systems.

Determination of the threshold of the break-up of invariant tori in a class of three frequency Hamiltonian systems

2001

We consider a class of Hamiltonians with three degrees of freedom that can be mapped into quasi-periodically driven pendulums. The purpose of this paper is to determine the threshold of the break-up of invariant tori with a specific frequency vector. We apply two techniques: the frequency map analysis and renormalization-group methods. The renormalization transformation acting on a Hamiltonian is a canonical change of coordinates which is a combination of a partial elimination of the irrelevant modes of the Hamiltonian and a rescaling of phase space around the considered torus. We give numerical evidence that the critical coupling at which the renormalization transformation starts to diverg…

Numerical evidence of hyperscaling violation in wetting transitions of the random-bond Ising model in d = 2 dimensions

2017

We performed extensive simulations of the random-bond Ising model confined between walls where competitive surface fields act. By properly taking the thermodynamic limit we unambiguously determined wetting transition points of the system, as extrapolation of localization-delocalization transitions of the interface between domains of different orientation driven by the respective fields. The finite-size scaling theory for wetting with short-range fields establishes that the average magnetization of the sample, with critical exponent β, is the proper order parameter for the study of wetting. While the hyperscaling relationship given by γ+2β=ν +ν requires β=1/2 (γ=4, ν =3, and ν =2), the therm…

Can coupled-cluster theory treat conical intersections?

2007

Conical intersections between electronic states are of great importance for the understanding of radiationless ultrafast relaxation processes. In particular, accidental degeneracies of hypersurfaces, i.e., between states of the same symmetry, become increasingly relevant for larger molecular systems. Coupled-cluster theory, including both single and multireference based schemes, offers a size-extensive description of the electronic wave function, but it sacrifices the Hermitian character of the theory. In this contribution, we examine the consequences of anti-Hermitian contributions to the coupling matrix element between near-degenerate states such as linear dependent eigenvectors and compl…

Scattering and Localization of Classical Waves Along a Wave Guide with Disorder and Dissipation

1993

The problem of localization of classical waves has recently attracted consider-able attention.1,2 Classical waves have, of course, been the subject of extensive research already in the last century, as emphasized by Landauer in his historical sketch.3 A variety of interesting phenomena is associated with classical waves like seismic waves, tidal waves, acoustic as well as optical waves. A major topic is the transport of energy or information by these waves. The current interest in classical waves is stimulated by the development of microelectronics with its very small structures, in particular very thin wires (as connections between the components of integrated circuits) which may (or may n…

An extrinsic interface developed in an equilibrium based finite element formulation

2019

Abstract The phenomenon of delamination in composite material is studied in the framework of hybrid equilibrium based formulation with extrinsic cohesive zone model. The hybrid equilibrium formulation is a stress based approaches defined in the class of statically admissible solutions. The formulation is based on the nine-node triangular element with quadratic stress field which implicitly satisfy the homogeneous equilibrium equations. The inter-element equilibrium condition and the boundary equilibrium condition are imposed by considering independent side displacement fields as interfacial Lagrangian variable, in a classical hybrid formulation. The hybrid equilibrium element formulation is…

Surface contribution to the anisotropy of magnetic nanoparticles.

2002

We calculate the contribution of the Neel surface anisotropy to the effective anisotropy of magnetic nanoparticles of spherical shape cut out of a simple cubic lattice. The effective anisotropy arises because deviations of atomic magnetizations from collinearity and thus the energy depends on the orientation of the global magnetization. The result is second order in the Neel surface anisotropy, scales with the particle volume and has cubic symmetry with preferred directions [+-1,+-1,+-1].
