On a Center-of-Mass System of Coordinates for Symmetric Classical and Quantum Many-Body Problems
Creators: name: Amorim, Erik
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In the context of classical or quantum many-body problems involving identical bodies, a linear change of coordinates can be constructed with the properties that it includes the center-of-mass as one of the new coordinates and preserves the inherent permutation symmetry of both the Hamiltonian and the admissible states. This has advantages over the usual system of Jacobi coordinates in the study of many-body problems for which permutation symmetry of the bodies plays an important role. This paper contains the details of the construction of this system and the proof that these properties uniquely determine it, up to trivial modifications. Examples of applications to both classical and quantum problems are explored, including a generalization to problems involving groups of different species of bodies.

description: In this paper, we prove that if two `box spaces' of two residually finite groups are coarsely equivalent, then the two groups are `uniform measured equivalent' (UME). More generally, we prove that if there is a coarse embedding of one box space into another box space, then there exists a `uniform measured equivalent embedding' (UME-embedding) of the first group into the second one. This is a reinforcement of the easier fact that a coarse equivalence (resp.\ a coarse embedding) between the box spaces gives rise to a coarse equivalence (resp.\ a coarse embedding) between the groups.
 We deduce new invariants that distinguish box spaces up to coarse embedding and coarse equivalence. In particular, we obtain that the expanders coming from $SL_n(\mathbb{Z})$ can not be coarsely embedded inside the expanders of $SL_m(\mathbb{Z})$, where $n>m$ and $n,m\geq 3$. Moreover, we obtain a countable class of residually groups which are mutually coarse-equivalent but any of their box spaces are not coarse-equivalent.

description: Many regional fisheries have reached crossroads and decisions must be made. Vast untapped resources exist as a potential foundation for a revitalized fishery. In addition, there exists available unemployed labor and capital in harvesting, processing, and marketing. As many of the traditional fisheries must continue at a low level due to an array of circumstances, we propose to encourage the transfer of effort to underutilized resources by paeans of price incentives. This will complement existing programs concerned primarily.with the acquisition of basic technical and biological data or long run improvements in harvesting efficiency as provided in part by the Fishing Fleet Improvement Act.

description: The deconfined quantum critical point (DQCP) was originally proposed as a continuous transition between two spontaneous symmetry breaking phases in 2D spin-1/2 systems. While great efforts have been spent on the DQCP for 2D systems, both theoretically and numerically, ambiguities among the nature of the transition are still not completely clarified. Here we shift the focus to a recently proposed 1D incarnation of DQCP in a spin-1/2 chain. By solving it with the variational matrix product state in the thermodynamic limit, a continuous transition between a valence-bond solid phase and a ferromagnetic phase is discovered. The scaling dimensions of various operators are calculated and compared with those from field theoretical description. At the critical point, two emergent O(2) symmetries are revealed, and the associated conserved current operators with exact integer scaling dimensions are determined with scrutiny. Our findings provide the low-dimensional analog of DQCP where unbiased numerical results are in perfect agreement with the controlled field theoretical predictions and have extended the realm of the unconventional phase transition as well as its identification with the advanced numerical methodology.

Resonant states corresponding to the conductance channel and the local charge neutrality condition cause conductance oscillations as a function of the number of atoms in the chain. Moreover, the geometrical shape of the contact leads influences the conductivity by giving rise to additional oscillations as a function of the lead opening angle.

description: The paper deals with the problem of deciding if two finite-dimensional linear subspaces over an arbitrary field are identical up to a permutation of the coordinates. This problem is referred to as the permutation code equivalence. We show that given access to a subroutine that decides if two weighted undirected graphs are isomorphic, one may deterministically decide the permutation code equivalence provided that the underlying vector spaces intersect trivially with their orthogonal complement with respect to an arbitrary inner product. Such a class of vector spaces is usually called linear codes with trivial hulls. The reduction is efficient because it essentially boils down to computing the inverse of a square matrix of order the length of the involved codes. Experimental results obtained with randomly drawn binary codes having trivial hulls show that permutation code equivalence can be decided in a few minutes for lengths up to 50,000.

description: We develop new techniques for computing exact correlation functions of a class of local operators, including certain monopole operators, in three-dimensional $\mathcal{N} = 4$ abelian gauge theories that have superconformal infrared limits. These operators are position-dependent linear combinations of Coulomb branch operators. They form a one-dimensional topological sector that encodes a deformation quantization of the Coulomb branch chiral ring, and their correlation functions completely fix the ($n\leq 3$)-point functions of all half-BPS Coulomb branch operators. Using these results, we provide new derivations of the conformal dimension of half-BPS monopole operators as well as new and detailed tests of mirror symmetry. Our main approach involves supersymmetric localization on a hemisphere $HS^3$ with half-BPS boundary conditions, where operator insertions within the hemisphere are represented by certain shift operators acting on the $HS^3$ wavefunction. By gluing a pair of such wavefunctions, we obtain correlators on $S^3$ with an arbitrary number of operator insertions. Finally, we show that our results can be recovered by dimensionally reducing the Schur index of 4D $\mathcal{N} = 2$ theories decorated by BPS 't Hooft-Wilson loops.

description: We report high-resolution specific heat measurements on the quasi-2D organic superconductor $κ$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$Cu(NCS)$_2$, performed by using a most sensitive ac-modulation technique. The main observations are (i) a discontinuity at \tc\ much in excess of what is expected for a weak-coupling BCS superconductor and (ii) a quasiparticle contribution to the specific heat with an exponentially weak temperature dependence at $T \ll T_c$. The latter finding is incompatible with an order parameter that vanishes at certain parts of the Fermi surface. The data for $T \leq T_c$ can be well described by a strong-coupling extension of the BCS theory - the $α$-model - similar to what has been recently found for the $κ$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$Cu[N(CN)$_2$]Br salt [Elsinger {\em et al.}, Phys.

description: After the detection of gravitational waves caused by the coalescence of compact objects in the mass range of neutron stars, GW170817, several studies have searched for an imprint of tidal effects in the signal, employing different model assumptions. One important distinction is whether or not to assume that both objects are neutron stars and obey the same equation of state. Some studies assumed independent properties. Others assume a universal equation of state, and in addition that the tidal deformability follows certain phenomenological relations. An important question is whether the gravitational-wave data alone constitute observational evidence for finite tidal effects. All studies provide Bayesian credible intervals, often without sufficiently discussing the impact of prior assumptions, especially in the case of lower limits on the neutron-star tidal deformability or radius. In this article, we scrutinize the implicit and explicit prior assumptions made in those studies. Our findings strongly indicate that existing lower credible bounds are mainly a consequence of prior assumptions combined with information gained about the system's masses. Importantly, those lower bounds are typically not informed by the observation of tidal effects in the gravitational-wave signal. Thus, regarding them as observational evidence might be misleading without a more detailed discussion. Further, we point out technical problems and conceptual inconsistencies in existing studies. We also assess the limitations due to systematic waveform model uncertainties in a novel way, demonstrating that differences between existing models are not guaranteed to be small enough for an unbiased estimation of lower bounds on the tidal deformability. Finally, we propose strategies for gravitational-wave data analysis designed to avoid some of the problems we uncovered.

Lensing effects of misaligned disks in dark matter halos

description: We study the observational signatures of the lensing signal produced by dark matter halos with embedded misaligned disks. This issue is of particular interest at the present time since most of the observed multiple lens systems have magnification ratios and image geometries that are not well-fit by standard mass models. The presence of substructure exterior to the lens has been invoked by several authors in the context of Cold Dark Matter (CDM) models in order to explain the anamolous magnification ratios. We emphasize that the anomalous magnification ratios may be an artifact of the simple one-component mass models currently in use; the inclusion of a misaligned disk may be able to mimic the effect of substructure. These slight spatial offsets between the dark matter halo and the disk, which are likely to occur during or as a consequence of interactions or mergers, lead to complex image configurations and non-standard magnification ratios. We investigate two illustrative lens models: a spiral disk embedded within a dark matter halo, and a compact disk-like component within an elliptical galaxy. The expected fraction of galaxies with a misaligned disk is estimated to be of the order of 10%. In such cases we find that the resultant lensing geometries are unusual, with high image multiplicities. The caustic structures - both radial and tangential - are drastically modified and the magnification ratios differ compared to expectations from standard lens models. The additional parameters required to specify the relative alignment of the mass components in the primary lens introduce yet another source of uncertainty in the mass modeling of gravitational lens systems.

description: We revisit and clarify some aspects of perturbative renormalization in pure Chern-Simons theory by means of a localization principle associated with an underlying supersymmetry. This perspective allows the otherwise perturbative one-loop shifts to be interpreted as nonperturbative consequences of a non-renormalization theorem, while providing a unified understanding of their origin (particularly in the case of Wilson lines). We illustrate this approach explicitly for $SU(2)$ Chern-Simons theory in flat space, on Seifert manifolds, and on a solid torus.

description: When asymmetry or non-verifiability of information, or non-excludability of users, makes contracts incomplete or unenforceable, and where for these and other reasons there are impediments to efficient bargaining, we show that private contracting will not generally assign the control of assets and the residual claimancy over income streams of projects to achieve socially efficient outcomes, suggesting that the policy relevance of the widely accepted "efficiency-equity tradeoff" should be seriously reconsidered. We illustrate these ideas with reference to misallocations in land, labor and credit markets. We also explore the consequences of redistributive policies for risk-taking and risk exposure when non-wealthy agents are risk-averse and for resolving collective action problems inherent in the provision of local public goods in the context of commons.

description: We study the star-forming (SF) population of galaxies within a sample of 209 IR-selected galaxy clusters at 0.3$\,\leq\,z\,\leq\,$1.1 in the ELAIS-N1 and XMM-LSS fields, exploiting the first HSC-SSP data release. The large area and depth of these data allows us to analyze the dependence of the SF fraction, $f_{SF}$, on stellar mass and environment separately. Using $R/R_{200}$ to trace environment, we observe a decrease in $f_{SF}$ from the field towards the cluster core, which strongly depends on stellar mass and redshift. The data show an accelerated growth of the quiescent population within the cluster environment: the $f_{SF}$ vs. stellar mass relation of the cluster core ($R/R_{200}\,\leq\,$0.4) is always below that of the field (4$\,\leq\,R/R_{200}\,

description: The dispersion relations of energy bands in solids are characterized by their density of states, but a given density of states may originate from various band structures. We show how a spherically symmetric dispersion can be constructed for any one-band density of states. This method is applied to one-, two- and three-dimensional systems. It also serves to establish that any one-band spectrum with finite bandwidth can be obtained from a properly scaled dispersion relation in the limit of infinite dimensions.

description: We use partial actions, as formalized by Exel, to construct various commensurating actions. We use this in the context of groups piecewise preserving a geometric structure, and we interpret the transfixing property of these commensurating actions as the existence of a model for which the group acts preserving the geometric structure. We apply this to many groups with piecewise properties in dimension 1, notably piecewise of class C^k, piecewise affine, piecewise projective (possibly discontinuous).
 We derive various conjugacy results for subgroups with Property FW, or distorted cyclic subgroups, or more generally in the presence of rigidity properties for commensurating actions. For instance we obtain, under suitable assumptions, the conjugacy of a given piecewise affine action to an affine action on possibly another model. By the same method, we obtain a similar result in the projective case. An illustrating corollary is the fact that the group of piecewise projective self-transformations of the circle has no infinite subgroup with Kazhdan's Property T; this corollary is new even in the piecewise affine case.
 In addition, we use this to provide of the classification of circle subgroups of piecewise projective homeomorphisms of the projective line. The piecewise affine case is a classical result of Minakawa.

Dense loops, supersymmetry, and Goldstone phases in two dimensions

description: Loop models in two dimensions can be related to O(N) models. The low-temperature dense-loops phase of such a model, or of its reformulation using a supergroup as symmetry, can have a Goldstone broken-symmetry phase for N<2. We argue that this phase is generic for -2< N <2 when crossings of loops are allowed, and distinct from the model of non-crossing dense loops first studied by Nienhuis [Phys. Rev. Lett. 49, 1062 (1982)]. Our arguments are supported by our numerical results, and by a lattice model solved exactly by Martins et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 81, 504 (1998)].

description: In interpreting the SNO experiments, very accurate estimates of the νd reaction cross sections are of great importance. We improve the previous estimates of our group by updating some of its inputs and by taking into account the results of a recent effective-field-theoretical calculation. The new cross sections are slightly (\sim 1%) larger than the previously reported values. We present arguments that lead to the conclusion that it is reasonable to assign 1% uncertainty to the νd cross sections reported here.

description: The phase diagram of the organic superconductor (TMTSF)_2PF_6 has been revisited using transport measurements with an improved control of the applied pressure. We have found a 0.8 kbar wide pressure domain below the critical point (9.43 kbar, 1.2 K) for the stabilisation of the superconducting ground state featuring a coexistence regime between spin density wave (SDW) and superconductivity (SC). The inhomogeneous character of the said pressure domain is supported by the analysis of the resistivity between T_SDW and T_SC and the superconducting critical current. The onset temperature T_SC is practically constant (1.20+-0.01 K) in this region where only the SC/SDW domain proportion below T_SC is increasing under pressure. An homogeneous superconducting state is recovered above the critical pressure with T_SC falling at increasing pressure. We propose a model comparing the free energy of a phase exhibiting a segregation between SDW and SC domains and the free energy of homogeneous phases which explains fairly well our experimental findings.

Intermittent dislocation flow in viscoplastic deformation

description: The viscoplastic deformation (creep) of crystalline materials under constant stress involves the motion of a large number of interacting dislocations. Analytical methods and sophisticated `dislocation-dynamics' simulations have proved very effective in the study of dislocation patterning, and have led to macroscopic constitutive laws of plastic deformation. Yet, a statistical analysis of the dynamics of an assembly of interacting dislocations has not hitherto been performed. Here we report acoustic emission measurements on stressed ice single crystals, the results of which indicate that dislocations move in a scale-free intermittent fashion. This result is confirmed by numerical simulations of a model of interacting dislocations that successfully reproduces the main features of the experiment. We find that dislocations generate a slowly evolving configuration landscape which coexists with rapid collective rearrangements. These rearrangements involve a comparatively small fraction of the dislocations and lead to an intermittent behavior of the net plastic response. This basic dynamical picture appears to be a generic feature in the deformation of many other materials. Moreover, it should provide a framework for discussing fundamental aspects of plasticity, that goes beyond standard mean-field approaches that see plastic deformation as a smooth laminar flow.

description: The failure of the American-led coalition war on Iraq 2003, compiled over the earlier failure of the Afghanistan war 2001, produced an adverse effect in the literature on war. Instead of identifying the non-Western side’s achievements as victories, it viewed the outcomes as defeats or indecisive for the Western, proposing a decreasing rate of achieving war victories as a result of the change in the nature of war itself. However, claiming that the nature of war has changed – in an attempt to hide the fact that since 1945, Western forces have usually habituated to defeat – appears to be the result of a Western-centric view dominated by the “industrial” or “total” war paradigm in which war is the deciding factor in solving conflict, leading to a state of peace and/or durable stability.This view does injustice to the utility of limited war in which the weak usually loses battles but still wins the war, especially that historically, the “industrial” or “total” war paradigm of the Western-dominant era, has been the exception rather than the rule. In Vietnam, Algeria, Lebanon and Afghanistan, the weak, non-Western side won the war not by destroying the enemy’s forces – a mission impossible – but by making it renounce its intentions, much like the Americans won the war against the British in 1783 and the Japanese against the Russians in 1905, in continuation of the limited war tradition that has dominated the battlefield since the Romans and the Persians. Limited war has always been the preferred strategy of the weak side, not necessarily of the East of Third World parties.That said, the aim of this paper is not to “reinvent the wheel” of what victory in war means, but rather to shed light on neglected aspects that receive less attention than warranted in the existing literature. In particular, it demonstrates the distinction between conflict and war, i.e., that conflict could persist for decades, if not centuries, with the occurrence of wars whose outcomes shape the trajectory of the conflict resolution, and that wars are waged with the knowledge of the limited utility of force.
