Numerical Study of the semiclassical limit of the Davey-Stewartson II equations
2014
We present the first detailed numerical study of the semiclassical limit of the Davey–Stewartson II equations both for the focusing and the defocusing variant. We concentrate on rapidly decreasing initial data with a single hump. The formal limit of these equations for vanishing semiclassical parameter , the semiclassical equations, is numerically integrated up to the formation of a shock. The use of parallelized algorithms allows one to determine the critical time tc and the critical solution for these 2 + 1-dimensional shocks. It is shown that the solutions generically break in isolated points similarly to the case of the 1 + 1-dimensional cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation, i.e., cubic…
On i-topological spaces: generalization of the concept of a topological space via ideals
2006
[EN] The aim of this paper is to generalize the structure of a topological space, preserving its certain topological properties. The main idea is to consider the union and intersection of sets modulo “small” sets which are defined via ideals. Developing the concept of an i-topological space and studying structures with compatible ideals, we are concerned to clarify the necessary and sufficient conditions for a new space to be homeomorphic, in some certain sense, to a topological space.
Correlation patterns from massive phonons in 1+1 dimensional acoustic black holes: A toy model
2018
Transverse excitations in analogue black holes induce a mass like term in the longitudinal mode equation. With a simple toy model we show that correlation functions display a rather rich structure characterized by groups of parallel peaks. For the most part the structure is completely different from that found in the massless case.
Sufficient conditions for coincidence in ℓ1 multifacility location problems
1997
We consider the problem of finding the optimal way of locating a finite number of facilities in a finite dimensional space, in order to minimize a weighted sum of the distances between these and other pre-existent facilities which are already positioned. We study the specific case where distance is measured in the @?"1, giving a new sufficient condition for identifying groups of facilities whose position will coincide at optimality.
Blow-up of the non-equivariant 2+1 dimensional wave map
2014
It has been known for a long time that the equivariant 2+1 wave map into the 2-sphere blows up if the initial data are chosen appropriately. Here, we present numerical evidence for the stability of the blow-up phenomenon under explicit violations of equivariance.
Subjective Refraction Techniques in the Frame of the Three-Dimensional Dioptric Space
2001
A novel heuristic approach to the well-known representation of the dioptric power in a three-dimensional space is presented. It is shown how this theoretical framework is ideal for discussing the principles of several subjective refraction methods. In particular, this formalism is used to justify the stenopaic slit refraction, the Barnes subjective refraction technique, and the Jackson cross-cylinder procedure. In view of this analysis, some modifications to the traditional procedures are proposed.
Fermion confinement via quantum walks in (2+1)-dimensional and (3+1)-dimensional space-time
2017
We analyze the properties of a two- and three-dimensional quantum walk that are inspired by the idea of a brane-world model put forward by Rubakov and Shaposhnikov [Phys. Lett. B 125, 136 (1983)PYLBAJ0370-269310.1016/0370-2693(83)91253-4]. In that model, particles are dynamically confined on the brane due to the interaction with a scalar field. We translated this model into an alternate quantum walk with a coin that depends on the external field, with a dependence which mimics a domain wall solution. As in the original model, fermions (in our case, the walker) become localized in one of the dimensions, not from the action of a random noise on the lattice (as in the case of Anderson localiza…
A simple microsuperspace model in 2 + 1 spacetime dimensions
1992
Abstract We quantize the closed Friedmann model in 2 + 1 spacetime dimensions using euclidean path-integral approach and a simple microsuperspace model. A relationship between integration measure and operator ordering in the Wheeler-DeWitt equation is found within our model. Solutions to the Wheeler-DeWitt equation are exactly reproduced from the path integral using suitable integration contours in the complex plane.
(2+1)-dimensional Einstein-Kepler problem in the centre-of-mass frame
1999
We formulate and analyze the Hamiltonian dynamics of a pair of massive spinless point particles in (2+1)-dimensional Einstein gravity by anchoring the system to a conical infinity, isometric to the infinity generated by a single massive but possibly spinning particle. The reduced phase space \Gamma_{red} has dimension four and topology R^3 x S^1. \Gamma_{red} is analogous to the phase space of a Newtonian two-body system in the centre-of-mass frame, and we find on \Gamma_{red} a canonical chart that makes this analogue explicit and reduces to the Newtonian chart in the appropriate limit. Prospects for quantization are commented on.
Positioning in a flat two-dimensional space-time
2008
The basic theory on relativistic positioning systems in a two-dimensional space-time and the analysis of the possibility of making relativistic gravimetry with these systems have been presented elsewhere [Phys. Rev. D 73 , 084017 (2006); Phys. Rev. D 74 , 104003 (2006)]. Here we summarize these results and we outline new issues on the relativistic positioning systems in Minkowski plane. We point out that the accelerations of the emitters and of the user along their trajectories are determined by the sole knowledge of the emitter positioning data and of the acceleration of only one of the emitters and only during a light echo interval.
