ABSTRACT
We propose to take advantage of using the Wiener path integrals as the formal solution for the joint probability densities of coupled Langevin equations describing particles suspended in a fluid under the effect of viscous and random forces. Our obtained formal solution, giving the expression for the Lyapunov exponent, (i) will provide the description of all the features and the behavior of such a system, e.g., the aggregation phenomenon recently studied in the literature using appropriate approximations, (ii) can be used to determine the occurrence and the nature of the aggregation-nonaggregation phase transition which we have shown for the one-dimensional case, and (iii) allows the use of a variety of approximative methods appropriate for the physical conditions of the problem such as instanton solutions in the WKB approximation in the aggregation phase for the one-dimensional case as presented in this paper. The use of instanton approximation gives the same result for the Lyapunov exponent in the aggregation phase, previously obtained by other authors using a different approximative method. The case of nonaggregation is also considered in a certain approximation using the general path integral expression for the one-dimensional case.
ABSTRACT
We present a systematic framework for noncommutative (NC) quantum field theory (QFT) within the new concept of relativistic invariance based on the notion of twisted Poincare symmetry, as proposed by Chaichian et al. [Phys. Lett. B 604, 98 (2004)]. This allows us to formulate and investigate all fundamental issues of relativistic QFT and offers a firm frame for the classification of particles according to the representation theory of the twisted Poincare symmetry and as a result for the NC versions of CPT and spin-statistics theorems, among others, discussed earlier in the literature. As a further application of this new concept of relativism we prove the NC analog of Haag's theorem.
ABSTRACT
In higher dimensional theories, such as brane world models with quasilocalized non-Abelian gauge fields, the vacuum structure turns out to be trivial. Since the gauge theory behaves at large distances as a 4 + delta dimensional, thus the topology of the infinity is that of S(3+delta) rather than S(3). This topology does not support finite action instantonic configurations and thus the CP violating theta term vanishes on the brane world volume. As well there are no contributions to the straight theta term from the higher dimensional solitonic configurations. In this way, the strong CP problem is absent in the models with quasilocalized gluons.
ABSTRACT
We have calculated the energy levels of the hydrogen atom as well as the Lamb shift within the noncommutative quantum electrodynamics theory. The results show deviations from the usual QED both on the classical and the quantum levels. On both levels, the deviations depend on the parameter of space/space noncommutativity.
ABSTRACT
We study the thermodynamics of degenerate electron and charged vector boson gases in very intense magnetic fields. In degenerate conditions of the electron gas, the pressure transverse to the magnetic field B may vanish, leading to a transverse collapse. For W bosons an instability arises because the magnetization diverges at the critical field B(c) = M(2)(W)/e. If the magnetic field is self-consistently maintained, the maximum value it can take is of the order of 2B(c)/3, but in any case the system becomes unstable and collapses.
