Eigenvalues of Ruijsenaars–Schneider models associated with An−1 root system in Bethe ansatz formalism
Ruijsenaars–Schneider models associated with An−1 root system with a discrete coupling constant are studied. The eigenvalues of the Hamiltonian are given in terms of the Bethe ansatz formulas. Taking the “nonrelativistic” limit, we obtain the spectrum of the corresponding Calogero–Moser systems in the third formulas of Felder et al.

title: Exact solution of the XXX Gaudin model with generic open boundaries
abstract: The XXX Gaudin model with generic integrable open boundaries specified by the most general non-diagonal reflecting matrices is studied. Besides the inhomogeneous parameters, the associated Gaudin operators have six free parameters which break the U ( 1 ) -symmetry. With the help of the off-diagonal Bethe ansatz, we successfully obtained the eigenvalues of these Gaudin operators and the corresponding Bethe ansatz equations.

title: Exact solution of the Izergin-Korepin model with general non-diagonal boundary terms
abstract: A bstractThe Izergin-Korepin model with general non-diagonal boundary terms, a typical integrable model beyond A-type and without U(1)-symmetry, is studied via the offdiagonal Bethe ansatz method. Based on some intrinsic properties of the R-matrix and the K-matrices, certain operator product identities of the transfer matrix are obtained at some special points of the spectral parameter. These identities and the asymptotic behaviors of the transfer matrix together allow us to construct the inhomogeneous T − Q relation and the associated Bethe ansatz equations. In the diagonal boundary limit, the reduced results coincide exactly with those obtained via other methods.

title: Inner structure of Spinc(4) gauge potential on 4-dimensional manifolds
abstract: The decomposition of Spinc(4) gauge potential in terms of the Dirac 4-spinor is investigated, where an important characterizing equation ΔAμ=-λAμ has been discovered. Here, λ is the vacuum expectation value of the spinor field, λ=Φ2, and Aμ the twisting U(1) potential. It is found that when λ takes constant values, the characterizing equation becomes an eigenvalue problem of the Laplacian operator. It provides a revenue to determine the modulus of the spinor field by using the Laplacian spectral theory. The above study could be useful in determining the spinor field and twisting potential in the Seiberg–Witten equations. Moreover, topological characteristic numbers of instantons in the self-dual sub-space are also discussed.

title: Off-diagonal Bethe ansatz solutions of the anisotropic spin-1/2 chains with arbitrary boundary fields
abstract: The anisotropic spin-1/2 chains with arbitrary boundary fields are diagonalized with the off-diagonal Bethe ansatz method. Based on the properties of the R-matrix and the K-matrices, an operator product identity of the transfer matrix is constructed at some special points of the spectral parameter. Combining with the asymptotic behavior (for XXZ case) or the quasi-periodicity properties (for XYZ case) of the transfer matrix, the extended T-Q ansatzes and the corresponding Bethe ansatz equations are derived.

title: Domain wall partition function of the eight-vertex model with a non-diagonal reflecting end
abstract: With the help of the Drinfeld twist or factorizing F-matrix for the eight-vertex SOS model, we derive the recursion relations of the partition function for the eight-vertex model with a generic non-diagonal reflecting end and domain wall boundary condition. Solving the recursion relations, we obtain the explicit determinant expression of the partition function. Our result shows that, contrary to the eight-vertex model without a reflecting end, the partition function can be expressed as a single determinant.

title: The Color Excesses of Type Ia Supernovae from Single-Degenerate Channel Model
abstract: Single Degenerate model is the most widely accepted progenitor model of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), in which a carbon-oxygen white dwarf (CO WD) accretes hydrogen-rich material from a main sequence or a slightly evolved star (WD +MS) to increase its mass, and explodes when its mass approaches the Chandrasekhar mass limit. During the mass transfer phase between the two components, an optically thick wind may occur and the material lost as the wind may exist as circumstellar material (CSM). Searching the CSM around progenitor star is helpful to discriminate different progenitor models of SNe Ia. Meanwhile, the CSM is a source of color excess.The purpose of this paper is to study the color excess produced from the single-degenerate progenitor model with optically thick wind, and reproduce the distribution o f color excesses of SNe Ia. Meng et al. (2009) systemically carried out binary evolution calculation of the WD +MS systems for various metallicities and showed the parameters of the systems before Roche lobe overflow and at the moment of supernova explosion in Meng & Yang (2009). With the results of Meng et al. (2009), we calculate the color excesses of SNe Ia at maximum light via a simple analytic method.We reproduces the distribution of color excesses of SNe Ia by our binary population synthesis approach if the velocity of the optically thick wind is taken to be of order of magnitude of 10 km s −1 . However, if the wind velocity is larger than 100 km s −1 , the reproduction is bad.

title: Decay constants of the pion and B mesons with the Bethe–Salpeter equation
abstract: In this Letter, we investigate the under-structures of the π and B mesons in the framework of the Bethe–Salpeter equation with the confining effective potential (infrared modified flat bottom potential). In bare quark–gluon vertex approximation, we obtain the algebraic expressions for the solutions of the coupled rainbow Schwinger–Dyson equation and ladder Bethe–Salpeter equation. Firstly, we neglect the rainbow Schwinger–Dyson equation, take the bare quark propagator and solve the Bethe–Salpeter equation numerically alone. Although the bare quark propagator cannot embody dynamical chiral symmetry breaking and has a mass pole in the time-like region, it can give reasonable results for the values of decay constants f π and f B compared with the values of experimental data and other theoretical calculations, such as lattice simulations and QCD sum rules. Secondly, we explore those mesons within the framework of the coupled rainbow Schwinger–Dyson equation and ladder Bethe–Salpeter equation. The Schwinger–Dyson functions for the u and d quarks are greatly renormalized at small momentum region and the curves are steep at about q 2 =1 GeV 2 which indicates an explicitly dynamical symmetry breaking. The Euclidean time Fourier-transformed quark propagator has no mass poles in the time-like region which naturally implements confinement. As for the b quark, the current mass is very large, the renormalization is more tender, however, mass pole in the time-like region is also absent. The Bethe–Salpeter wavefunctions for both the π and B mesons have the same type (Gaussian type) momentum dependence as the corresponding wavefunctions with the bare quark propagator, however, the quantitative values are changed and the values for the decay constants f π and f B are changed correspondingly.

title: Grand Canonical Ensembles in General Relativity
abstract: We develop a formalism for general relativistic, grand canonical ensembles in space-times with timelike Killing fields. Using that, we derive ideal gas laws, and show how they depend on the geometry of the particular space-times. A systematic method for calculating Newtonian limits is given for a class of these space-times, which is illustrated for Kerr space-time. In addition, we prove uniqueness of the infinite volume Gibbs measure, and absence of phase transitions for a class of interaction potentials in anti-de Sitter space.

title: On the largest Lyapunov exponent for coupled surjective map lattice with weak diffusive coupling
abstract: The largest Lyapunov exponent for one dimensional coupled map lattices with diffusive coupling is considered analytically. It is shown that if the map is surjective there exists a simple relation between the largest Lyapunov exponent λ1 and the coupling strength e, namely λ1 = λ0 - κe0, when e → 0, where λ0 is the Lyapunov exponent for the map and o = 1/p if the mapping function has p-th order maximum.

title: A New approach for calculating the Nambu-Gorkov propagator in color superconductivity theory
abstract: In this article, we propose a new approach to calculate the Nambu-Gorkov propagator intuitively with some linear algebra techniques in presence of the scalar diquark condensates. With the help of energy projective operators, we can obtain relatively simple expressions for the quark propagators, which greatly facilitate the calculations in solving the Schwinger-Dyson equation to obtain the gap parameters.
