Starting from the classical equation of the motion of a domain wall in the ferromagnetic systems, the quantum energy levels of the wall and the corresponding eigenfunctions in the case of considering damping term are given by using the canonical quantization method and unitary transformation. The quantum fluctuations of displacement and momentum of the moving wall has also been given as well as the uncertain relation.

Recent experiments have fabricated structured arrays. We study hybrid nanowires, in which normal and superconducting regions are in close proximity, by using the Bogoliubov–de Gennes equations for superconductivity in a cylindrical nanowire. We succeed to obtain the quantum energy levels and wavefunctions of a superconducting nanowire. The obtained spectra of electrons remind Hofstadter’s butterfly.


A method for regularizing spectral determinants is developed which facilitates their computation from a finite number of eigenvalues. This is used to calcu­late the determinant ∆ for the hyperbola billiard over a range which includes 46 quantum energy levels. The result is compared with semiclassical periodic orbit evaluations of ∆ using the Dirichlet series, Euler product, and a Riemann-Siegel-type formula. It is found that the Riemann-Siegel-type expansion, which uses the least number of orbits, gives the closest approximation. This provides explicit numerical support for recent conjectures concerning the analytic proper­ties of semiclassical formulae, and in particular for the existence of resummation relations connecting long and short pseudo-orbits.

In this paper, we carry out a theoretical calculation of quantum state and quantum energy structure in carbon nanotube embedded semiconductor surface. In this theoretical model, the electrons in the carbon nanotube are considered as in a two-dimensional cylindrical surface. Their motion, therefore, can be described by the Dirac equation. We solve the equation and find that the energy levels are quantized and are linearly dependent on the wave vectors along the [Formula: see text]-direction that is along the direction of the nanotube. This type of energy structure may have potential application for fabricating high efficiency solar cell or quantum bit in computer chips.

We consider the random graph modelG(w)for a given expected degree sequencew=(w1,w2,…,wn). Warmth, introduced by Brightwell and Winkler in the context of combinatorial statistical mechanics, is a graph parameter related to lower bounds of chromatic number. We present new upper and lower bounds on warmth ofG(w). In particular, the minimum expected degree turns out to be an upper bound of warmth when it tends to infinity and the maximum expected degreem=O(nα)with0<α<1/2.

1. The properties of partitions of numbers extensively investigated by Hardy and Ramanujan (1) have proved to be of outstanding mathematical interest. The first physical application known to us of the Hardy-Ramanujan asymptotic expression for the number of possible ways any integer can be written as the sum of smaller positive integers is due to Bohr and Kalckar (2) for estimating the density of energy levels for a heavy nucleus. The present paper is concerned with the study of thermodynamical assemblies corresponding to the partition functions familiar in the theory of numbers. Such a discussion is not only of intrinsic interest, but it also leads to some properties of partition functions, which, we believe, have not been explicitly noticed before. Here we shall only consider an assembly of identical (Bose-Einstein, and Fermi-Dirac) linear simple-harmonic oscillators. The discussion will be extended to assemblies of non-interacting particles in a subsequent paper.
