Quantum Entanglement of Free Particles

In this paper, the Schrödinger equation is solved for many free particles and their quantum entanglement is studied via correlation analysis. Converting the Schrödinger equation in the Madelung hydrodynamic-like form, the quantum mechanics is extended to open quantum systems by adding Ohmic friction forces. The dissipative evolution confirms the correlation decay over time, but a new integral of motion is discovered, being appropriate for storing everlasting quantum information.

TM Standing Wave Solution of Maxwell Equations in a Self-Defocusing Kerr Media and its Application to a Thin-Film Waveguide

We applied the dielectric function method to solve analytically L-NL-L structure problems with negative Kerr nonlinearity. A damped wave in linear and a periodic standing wave in non-linear media had to be matched at boundaries. We gave a formulation of boundary conditions that did not explicitly include a film thickness. The boundary-value of a dielectric function can be expressed through the constant of non-trivial integral of motion. Using it, one generates a family of matched solutions satisfying boundary conditions. Then arbitrary film thickness can be checked against this family of solutions in search of matches. As a result, all fitted solutions are determined straightforwardly.

Stability Analysis of the Rhomboidal Restricted Six-Body Problem

We discuss the restricted rhomboidal six-body problem (RR6BP), which has four positive masses at the vertices of the rhombus, and the fifth mass is at the intersection of the two diagonals. These masses always move in rhomboidal CC with diagonals 2 a and 2 b . The sixth body, having a very small mass, does not influence the motion of the five masses, also called primaries. The masses of the primaries are m 1 = m 2 = m 0 = m and m 3 = m 4 = m ˜ . The masses m and m ˜ are written as functions of parameters a and b such that they always form a rhomboidal central configuration. The evolution of zero velocity curves is discussed for fixed values of positive masses. Using the first integral of motion, we derive the region of possible motion of test particle m 5 and identify the value of Jacobian constant C for different energy intervals at which these regions become disconnected. Using semianalytical techniques, we show the existence and uniqueness of equilibrium solutions on the axes and off the axes. We show that, for b ∈ 1 / 3 , 1.1394282249562009 , there always exist 12 equilibrium points. We also show that all 12 equilibrium points are unstable.

Poncelet property and quasi-periodicity of the integrable Boltzmann system

We study the motion of a particle in a plane subject to an attractive central force with inverse-square law on one side of a wall at which it is reflected elastically. This model is a special case of a class of systems considered by Boltzmann which was recently shown by Gallavotti and Jauslin to admit a second integral of motion additionally to the energy. By recording the subsequent positions and momenta of the particle as it hits the wall, we obtain a three-dimensional discrete-time dynamical system. We show that this system has the Poncelet property: If for given generic values of the integrals one orbit is periodic, then all orbits for these values are periodic and have the same period. The reason for this is the same as in the case of the Poncelet theorem: The generic level set of the integrals of motion is an elliptic curve, and the Poincaré map is the composition of two involutions with fixed points and is thus the translation by a fixed element. Another consequence of our result is the proof of a conjecture of Gallavotti and Jauslin on the quasi-periodicity of the integrable Boltzmann system, implying the applicability of KAM perturbation theory to the Boltzmann system with weak centrifugal force.

Are Maxwell knots integrable?

We review properties of the null-field solutions of source-free Maxwell equations. We focus on the electric and magnetic field lines, especially on limit cycles, which actually can be knotted and/or linked at every given moment. We analyse the fact that the Poynting vector induces self-consistent time evolution of these lines and demonstrate that the Abelian link invariant is integral of motion. We also consider particular examples of the field lines for the particular family of finite energy source-free “knot” solutions, attempting to understand when the field lines are closed – and can be discussed in terms of knots and links. Based on computer simulations we conjecture that Ranada’s solution, where every pair of lines forms a Hopf link, is rather exceptional. In general, only particular lines (a set of measure zero) are limit cycles and represent closed lines forming knots/links, while all the rest are twisting around them and remain unclosed. Still, conservation laws of Poynting evolution and associated integrable structure should persist.

Lagrangian equations of motion. Conservation laws

This chapter addresses the invariance of the Lagrangian equations of motion under the coordinate to transformation, the transformation of the energy and generalised momenta under the coordinate transformation. The integrals of motion for a particle moving in the field with a given symmetry to the Noether’s theorem, the Lagrangian functions, and the Lagrangian equations of motion for the electromechanical system. The authors also discuss the influence of constraints and friction on the motion of a system, the virial theorem and its generalization in the presents of a magnetic field, and an additional integral of motion for a system of three interacting particles.

Effects of multiplicative noise on the Duffing oscillator with variable coefficients and its integral of motion

In this work, we implement multiplicative noise to the Duffing oscillator with variable coefficients. The stochastic differential equations are solved using the fourth-order Runge–Kutta method with the Box-Müller algorithm and the corresponding integral of motion is obtained. Some numerical experiments are performed and the results show that the integral of motion is highly unaffected by the multiplicative noise.

Identifying stellar streams in Gaia DR2 with data mining techniques

ABSTRACT Streams of stars from captured dwarf galaxies and dissolved globular clusters are identifiable through the similarity of their orbital parameters, a fact that remains true long after the streams have dispersed spatially. We calculate the integrals of motion for 31 234 stars, to a distance of 4 kpc from the Sun, which have full and accurate 6D phase space positions in the Gaia DR2 catalogue. We then apply a novel combination of data mining, numerical, and statistical techniques to search for stellar streams. This process returns five high confidence streams (including one which was previously undiscovered), all of which display tight clustering in the integral of motion space. Colour–magnitude diagrams indicate that these streams are relatively simple, old, metal-poor populations. One of these resolved streams shares very similar kinematics and metallicity characteristics with the Gaia-Enceladus dwarf galaxy remnant, but with a slightly younger age. The success of this project demonstrates the usefulness of data mining techniques in exploring large data sets.
