Models of zero-range interaction for the bosonic trimer at unitarity Rev. Math. Phys. (IF 1.215) Pub Date : 2020-12-26 Alessandro Michelangeli
We present the mathematical construction of the physically relevant quantum Hamiltonians for a three-body system consisting of identical bosons mutually coupled by a two-body interaction of zero range. For a large part of the presentation, infinite scattering length will be considered (the unitarity regime). The subject has several precursors in the mathematical literature. We proceed through an operator-theoretic

This article proposes a new two-parameter generalized entropy, which can be reduced to the Tsallis and Shannon entropies for specific values of its parameters. We develop a number of information-theoretic properties of this generalized entropy and divergence, for instance, the sub-additive property, strong sub-additive property, joint convexity, and information monotonicity. This article presents an

Solitons of general topological charge over noncommutative tori Rev. Math. Phys. (IF 1.215) Pub Date : 2020-12-11 Ludwik Da̧browski; Mads S. Jakobsen; Giovanni Landi; Franz Luef
We study solitons of general topological charge over noncommutative tori from the perspective of time-frequency analysis. These solitons are associated with vector bundles of higher rank, expressed in terms of vector-valued Gabor frames. We apply the duality theory of Gabor analysis to show that Gaussians are such solitons for any value of a topological charge. Also they solve self/anti-self duality

A physicist’s guide to explicit summation formulas involving zeros of Bessel functions and related spectral sums Rev. Math. Phys. (IF 1.215) Pub Date : 2020-11-23 Denis S. Grebenkov
In this pedagogical review, we summarize the mathematical basis and practical hints for the explicit analytical computation of spectral sums that involve the eigenvalues of the Laplace operator in simple domains such as d-dimensional balls (with d=1,2,3), an annulus, a spherical shell, right circular cylinders, rectangles and rectangular cuboids. Such sums appear as spectral expansions of heat kernels

We consider a 2×2 system of 1D semiclassical differential operators with two Schrödinger operators in the diagonal part and small interactions of order hν in the off-diagonal part, where h is a semiclassical parameter and ν is a constant larger than 1/2. We study the absence of resonance near a non-trapping energy for both Schrödinger operators in the presence of crossings of their potentials. The

This paper is devoted to a collection of results on nonlinear interpolation inequalities associated with Schrödinger operators involving Aharonov–Bohm magnetic potentials, and to some consequences. As symmetry plays an important role for establishing optimality results, we shall consider various cases corresponding to a circle, a two-dimensional sphere or a two-dimensional torus, and also the Euclidean

Orbital stability vs. scattering in the cubic-quintic Schrödinger equation Rev. Math. Phys. (IF 1.215) Pub Date : 2020-09-17 Rémi Carles; Christof Sparber
We consider the cubic-quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation of up to three space dimensions. The cubic nonlinearity is thereby focusing while the quintic one is defocusing, ensuring global well-posedness of the Cauchy problem in the energy space. The main goal of this paper is to investigate the interplay between dispersion and orbital (in-)stability of solitary waves. In space dimension one, it is

The quantum random energy model as a limit of p-spin interactions Rev. Math. Phys. (IF 1.215) Pub Date : 2020-08-31 Chokri Manai; Simone Warzel
We consider the free energy of a mean-field quantum spin glass described by a p-spin interaction and a transversal magnetic field. Recent rigorous results for the case p=∞, i.e. the quantum random energy model (QREM), are reviewed. We show that the free energy of the p-spin model converges in a joint thermodynamic and p→∞ limit to the free energy of the QREM.

We study the magnetic Laplacian and the Ginzburg–Landau functional in a thin planar, smooth, tubular domain and with a uniform applied magnetic field. We provide counterexamples to strong diamagnetism, and as a consequence, we prove that the transition from the superconducting to the normal state is non-monotone. In some nonlinear regime, we determine the structure of the order parameter and compute

On the absence of stationary currents Rev. Math. Phys. (IF 1.215) Pub Date : 2020-07-27 Sven Bachmann; Martin Fraas
We review the proofs of a theorem of Bloch on the absence of macroscopic stationary currents in quantum systems. The standard proof shows that the current in 1D vanishes in the large volume limit under rather general conditions. In higher dimensions, the total current across a cross-section does not need to vanish in gapless systems but it does vanish in gapped systems. We focus on the latter claim

Deformations of geometric characteristics of statistical hypersurfaces governed by the law of growth of entropy are studied. Both general and special cases of deformations are considered. The basic structure of the statistical hypersurface is explored through a differential relation for the variables, and connections with the replicator dynamics for Gibbs’ weights are highlighted. Ideal and super-ideal

Bosonic collective excitations in Fermi gases Rev. Math. Phys. (IF 1.215) Pub Date : 2020-05-22 Niels Benedikter
Hartree–Fock theory has been justified as a mean-field approximation for fermionic systems. However, it suffers from some defects in predicting physical properties, making necessary a theory of quantum correlations. Recently, bosonization of many-body correlations has been rigorously justified as an upper bound on the correlation energy at high density with weak interactions. We review the bosonic

New realizations of algebras of the Askey–Wilson type in terms of Lie and quantum algebras Rev. Math. Phys. (IF 1.215) Pub Date : 2020-07-20 Nicolas Crampé; Dounia Shaaban Kabakibo; Luc Vinet
The Askey–Wilson algebra is realized in terms of the elements of the quantum algebras Uq(𝔰𝔲(2)) or Uq(𝔰𝔲(1,1)). A new realization of the Racah algebra in terms of the Lie algebras 𝔰𝔲(2) or 𝔰𝔲(1,1) is also given. Details for different specializations are provided. The advantage of these new realizations is that one generator of the Askey–Wilson (or Racah) algebra becomes diagonal in the usual

Non-relativistic quantum particles bounded to a curve in ℝ2 by attractive contact δ-interaction are considered. The interval between the energy of the transversal bound state and zero is shown to belong to the absolutely continuous spectrum, with possible embedded eigenvalues. The existence of the wave operators is proved for the mentioned energy interval using the Hamiltonians with the interaction

We prove a Koszul formula for the Levi-Civita connection for any pseudo-Riemannian bilinear metric on a class of centered bimodule of noncommutative one-forms. As an application to the Koszul formula, we show that our Levi-Civita connection is a bimodule connection. We construct a spectral triple on a fuzzy sphere and compute the scalar curvature for the Levi-Civita connection associated to a canonical

Canonical quantization of constants of motion Rev. Math. Phys. (IF 1.215) Pub Date : 2020-05-06 Fabián Belmonte
We develop a quantization method, that we name decomposable Weyl quantization, which ensures that the constants of motion of a prescribed finite set of Hamiltonians are preserved by the quantization. Our method is based on a structural analogy between the notions of reduction of the classical phase space and diagonalization of selfadjoint operators. We obtain the spectral decomposition of the emerging

Increasing tensor powers of the k×k matrices Mk(ℂ) are known to give rise to a continuous bundle of C∗-algebras over I={0}∪1/ℕ⊂[0,1] with fibers A1/N=Mk(ℂ)⊗N and A0=C(Xk), where Xk=S(Mk(ℂ)), the state space of Mk(ℂ), which is canonically a compact Poisson manifold (with stratified boundary). Our first result is the existence of a strict deformation quantization of Xk à la Rieffel, defined by perfectly

We consider the entanglement evolution of two qubits embedded into disordered multiconnected environment. We model the environment and its interaction with qubits by large random matrices allowing for a possibility to describe environments of meso- and even nanosize. We obtain general formulas for the time dependent reduced density matrix of the qubits corresponding to several cases of the qubit-environment

Topological recursion and geometry Rev. Math. Phys. (IF 1.215) Pub Date : 2020-04-22 Gaëtan Borot
This paper aims at explaining some incarnations of the idea of topological recursion: in two-dimensional quantum field theories (2d TQFTs), in cohomological field theories (CohFT), and in the computation of volumes of the moduli space of curves. It gives an introduction to the formalism of quantum Airy structures on which the topological recursion is based, which is seen at work in the above topics

On the regularity of Cauchy hypersurfaces and temporal functions in closed cone structures Rev. Math. Phys. (IF 1.215) Pub Date : 2020-04-22 Ettore Minguzzi
We complement our work on the causality of upper semi-continuous distributions of cones with some results on Cauchy hypersurfaces. We prove that every locally stably acausal Cauchy hypersurface is stable. Then we prove that the signed distance dS from a spacelike hypersurface S is, in a neighborhood of it, as regular as the hypersurface, and by using this fact we give a proof that every Cauchy hypersurface

Ring chains with vertex coupling of a preferred orientation Rev. Math. Phys. (IF 1.215) Pub Date : 2020-04-16 Marzieh Baradaran; Pavel Exner; Miloš Tater
We consider a family of Schrödinger operators supported by a periodic chain of loops connected either tightly or loosely through connecting links of the length ℓ>0 with the vertex coupling which is non-invariant with respect to the time reversal. The spectral behavior of the model illustrates that the high-energy behavior of such vertices is determined by the vertex parity. The positive spectrum of

Renault, Wassermann, Handelman and Rossmann (early 1980s) and Evans and Gould (1994) explicitly described the K-theory of certain unital AF-algebras A as (quotients of) polynomial rings. In this paper, we show that in each case the multiplication in the polynomial ring (quotient) is induced by a ∗-homomorphism A⊗A→A arising from a unitary braiding on a C*-tensor category and essentially defined by

Joint spectral measures associated to the rank two Lie group G2, including the representation graphs for the irreducible representations of G2 and its maximal torus, nimrep graphs associated to the G2 modular invariants have been studied. In this paper, we study the joint spectral measures for the McKay graphs (or representation graphs) of finite subgroups of G2. Using character theoretic methods we

For parity-conserving fermionic chains, we review how to associate ℤ2-indices to ground states in finite systems with quadratic and higher-order interactions as well as to quasifree ground states on the infinite CAR algebra. It is shown that the ℤ2-valued spectral flow provides a topological obstruction for two systems to have the same ℤ2-index. A rudimentary definition of a ℤ2-phase label for a class

We consider a 2-dimensional Bloch–Landau–Pauli Hamiltonian for a spinful electron in a constant magnetic field subject to a periodic background potential. Assuming that the z-component of the spin operator is conserved, we compute the linear response of the associated spin density of states to a small change in the magnetic field, and identify it with the spin Hall conductivity. This response is in

Classification of first order sesquilinear forms Rev. Math. Phys. (IF 1.215) Pub Date : 2020-03-05 Matteo Capoferri; Nikolai Saveliev; Dmitri Vassiliev
A natural way to obtain a system of partial differential equations on a manifold is to vary a suitably defined sesquilinear form. The sesquilinear forms we study are Hermitian forms acting on sections of the trivial ℂn-bundle over a smooth m-dimensional manifold without boundary. More specifically, we are concerned with first order sesquilinear forms, namely, those generating first order systems. Our

We first review the problem of a rigorous justification of Kubo’s formula for transport coefficients in gapped extended Hamiltonian quantum systems at zero temperature. In particular, the theoretical understanding of the quantum Hall effect rests on the validity of Kubo’s formula for such systems, a connection that we review briefly as well. We then highlight an approach to linear response theory based

In this paper, we consider Anderson type operators on a separable Hilbert space where the random perturbations are finite rank and the random variables have full support on ℝ. We show that spectral multiplicity has a uniform lower bound whenever the lower bound is given on a set of positive Lebesgue measure on the point spectrum away from the continuous one. We also show a deep connection between the

We review recent results obtained in the scattering theory of dissipative quantum systems representing the long-time evolution of a system S interacting with another system S′ and susceptible of being absorbed by S′. The effective dynamics of S is generated by an operator of the form H=H0+V−iC∗C on the Hilbert space of the pure states of S, where H0 is the self-adjoint generator of the free dynamics

On a connected, oriented, smooth Riemannian manifold without boundary we consider a real scalar field whose dynamics is ruled by E, a second-order elliptic partial differential operator of Laplace type. Using the functional formalism and working within the framework of algebraic quantum field theory and of the principle of general local covariance, first we construct the algebra of locally covariant

We consider ensembles of real symmetric band matrices with entries drawn from an infinite sequence of exchangeable random variables, as far as the symmetry of the matrices permits. In general, the entries of the upper triangular parts of these matrices are correlated and no smallness or sparseness of these correlations is assumed. It is shown that the eigenvalue distribution measures still converge

(No) Wigner Theorem for C*-algebras Rev. Math. Phys. (IF 1.215) Pub Date : 2020-01-10 Klaas Landsman; Kitty Rang
Wigner’s Theorem states that bijections of the set 𝒫1(H) of one-dimensional projections on a Hilbert space H that preserve transition probabilities are induced by either a unitary or an anti-unitary operator on H (which is uniquely determined up to a phase). Since elements of 𝒫1(H) define pure states on the C*-algebra B(H) of all bounded operators on H (though typically not producing all of them)

We present homotopy theoretic and geometric interpretations of the Kane–Mele invariant for gapped fermionic quantum systems in three dimensions with time-reversal symmetry. We show that the invariant is related to a certain 4-equivalence which lends it an interpretation as an obstruction to a block decomposition of the sewing matrix up to non-equivariant homotopy. We prove a Mayer–Vietoris Theorem

For a gauge theory (X0,S0) with an affine configuration space X0, we describe an algorithm to construct a corresponding extended theory (X̃,S̃), obtained by introducing ghost and anti-ghost fields, with S̃ a solution of the classical master equation in 𝒪X̃. This construction is the first step to define the (gauge-fixed) BRST

We establish the Level-1 and Level-3 Large Deviation Principles (LDPs) for invariant measures on shift spaces over finite alphabets under very general decoupling conditions for which the thermodynamic formalism does not apply. Such decoupling conditions arise naturally in multifractal analysis, in Gibbs states with hard-core interactions, and in the statistics of repeated quantum measurement processes

Schramm–Loewner evolution (SLE) is a random process that gives a useful description of fractal curves. After its introduction, many works concerning the connection between SLE and conformal field theory (CFT) have been carried out. In this paper, we develop a new method of coupling SLE with a Wess–Zumino–Witten (WZW) model for SU(2), an example of CFT, relying on a coset construction of Virasoro minimal

There are two groups which act in a natural way on the bundle TP tangent to the total space P of a principal G-bundle P(M,G): the group Aut0TP of automorphisms of TP covering the identity map of P and the group TG tangent to the structural group G. Let AutTGTP⊂Aut0TP be the subgroup of those automorphisms which commute with the action of TG. In the paper, we investigate G-invariant symplectic structures

Let H be a separable Hilbert space and T be a self-adjoint bounded linear operator on H⊗2 with norm ≤1, satisfying the Yang–Baxter equation. Bożejko and Speicher ([10]) proved that the operator T determines a T-deformed Fock space ℱ(H)=⊕n=0∞ℱn(H). We start with reviewing and extending the known results about the structure of the n-particle spaces ℱn(H) and the commutation relations satisfied by the
