The extensions of gravitational soliton solutions with real poles

1998

We analyse vacuum gravitational "soliton" solutions with real poles in the cosmological context. It is well known that these solutions contain singularities on certain null hypersurfaces. Using a Kasner seed solution, we demonstrate that these may contain thin sheets of null matter or may be simple coordinate singularities, and we describe a number of possible extensions through them.

Comments on the dispersion relation method to vector–vector interaction

2019

We study in detail the method proposed recently to study the vector-vector interaction using the $N/D$ method and dispersion relations, which concludes that, while for $J=0$, one finds bound states, in the case of $J=2$, where the interaction is also attractive and much stronger, no bound state is found. In that work, approximations are done for $N$ and $D$ and a subtracted dispersion relation for $D$ is used, with subtractions made up to a polynomial of second degree in $s-s_\mathrm{th}$, matching the expression to $1-VG$ at threshold. We study this in detail for the $\rho - \rho$ interaction and to see the convergence of the method we make an extra subtraction matching $1-VG$ at threshold…

Triangle singularity mechanism for the pp→π+d fusion reaction

2021

We develop a model for the $pp\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}d$ reaction based on the $pp\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Delta}}(1232)N$ transition followed by $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Delta}}(1232)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\pi}{N}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ decay and posterior fusion of $N{N}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ to give the deuteron. We show that the triangle diagram depicting this process develops a triangle singularity leading to a large cross section of this reaction compared to ordinary fusion reactions. The results of the calculation also show that the process is largely dominated by the $pp$ system in $L=2$ and $S=0$, which transfers $J=2$ to the final ${\ensu…

Finitely determined singularities of ruled surfaces in 3

2009

AbstractWe study local singularities of ruled surfaces in 3. We show that any map germ f : (2, 0) → (3, 0) with a simple singularity is -equivalent to a ruled surface. Moreover, we give a topological classification of -finitely determined singularities of ruled surfaces and show that there are just eleven topological classes.

From stringy particle physics to moduli stabilisation and cosmology

2016

Intersecting D6-branes provide a geometrically intuitive road to stringy particle physics models, where D6-branes stuck at orbifold singularities can lead to the stabilisation of deformation moduli, and the QCD axion can arise from the open string sector in a very constrained way compared to pure field theory. We demonstrate this interplay of different physical features here through an explicit model.

Determination of the mobility edge in the Anderson model of localization in three dimensions by multifractal analysis.

1995

We study the Anderson model of localization in three dimensions with different probability distributions for the site energies. Using the Lanczos algorithm we calculate eigenvectors for different model parameters like disorder and energy. From these we derive the singularity spectrum typically used for the characterization of multifractal objects. We demonstrate that the singularity spectrum at the critical disorder, which determines the mobility edge at the band center, is independent of the employed probability distribution. Assuming that this singularity spectrum is universal for the metal-insulator transition regardless of specific parameters of the model we establish a straightforward …

A Comment on form-factor mass singularities in flavor changing neutral currents

1991

Flavor-changing effective verticesq l q h V 0, whereV 0 represents a neutral gauge boson (γ,Z 0,g), involving a heavy external quark, are discussed within the standard model at one-loop level and second-order approximation in external momenta and masses: the logarithmic singular terms in the form factors at vanishing mass of the internal quark in the loop have to be replaced by pieces coming from next order in external momenta. Implications in theb→d+X penguin transitions are commented.

Fluctuations and lack of self-averaging in the kinetics of domain growth

1986

The fluctuations occurring when an initially disordered system is quenched at timet=0 to a state, where in equilibrium it is ordered, are studied with a scaling theory. Both the mean-sizel(t)d of thed-dimensional ordered domains and their fluctuations in size are found to increase with the same power of the time; their relative size fluctuations are independent of the total volumeLd of the system. This lack of self-averaging is tested for both the Ising model and the φ4 model on the square lattice. Both models exhibit the same lawl(t)=(Rt)x withx=1/2, although the φ4 model has “soft walls”. However, spurious results withx≷1/2 are obtained if “bad” pseudorandom numbers are used, and if the n…

Symmetry, winding number, and topological charge of vortex solitons in discrete-symmetry media

2009

[EN] We determine the functional behavior near the discrete rotational symmetry axis of discrete vortices of the nonlinear Schrodinger equation. We show that these solutions present a central phase singularity whose charge is restricted by symmetry arguments. Consequently, we demonstrate that the existence of high-charged discrete vortices is related to the presence of other off-axis phase singularities, whose positions and charges are also restricted by symmetry arguments. To illustrate our theoretical results, we offer two numerical examples of high-charged discrete vortices in photonic crystal fibers showing hexagonal discrete rotational invariance

Numerical study of the primitive equations in the small viscosity regime

2018

In this paper we study the flow dynamics governed by the primitive equations in the small viscosity regime. We consider an initial setup consisting on two dipolar structures interacting with a no slip boundary at the bottom of the domain. The generated boundary layer is analyzed in terms of the complex singularities of the horizontal pressure gradient and of the vorticity generated at the boundary. The presence of complex singularities is correlated with the appearance of secondary recirculation regions. Two viscosity regimes, with different qualitative properties, can be distinguished in the flow dynamics.
