Pair Wave Functions in a Bose Liquid

Abstract

Pair wave functions (PWF) which are eigenfunctions of the reduced density 2-matrix are considered for a homogeneous Bose liquid. With the Bogoliubov principle of the correlation weakening it is proved that the distribution of the "dissociated" pair states over momenta is exactly the product of the single-particle distribution functions. Thus, the "dissociated" pair states are naturally classified as condensate-condensate, condensate-supracondensate and supracondensate-supracondensate ones provided the Bose-Einstein condensate exists. The condensate-condensate as well as condensate-supracondensate PWF are expressed in terms of the averages of products of the creation and destruction Bose operators. This leads to the simple interpretation of the anomalous averages as the "scattering parts" of the condensate-condensate and condensate-supracondensate PWF. It is shown that in contrast to the Fermi liquid, the appearance of the anomalous averages for the Bose liquid does not necessarily mean that there exist bound states of pairs of particles. The PWF in the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) approach are found. Given the density of the condensate is not zero, there are no bound pair states in the HFB scheme. The expansion of the pair correlation function in the set of PWF is very useful in order to take into account both short-range and long-range spatial correlations. Applications (possible and already realized) of the formalism developed are discussed.

Sharp Bounds on the Mean Efficiency of a Fluctuating Machine

The efficiency of a machine at the scale of thermal fluctuations is random, and the conventional ratio $-W/Q_h$ has no moment of any order: its input heat fluctuates through zero. We work instead with the exergetic ratio $η=W/(W+T_0S)$, which lies in $[0,1]$ pointwise for non-negative dissipation, and ask what the energy budget alone determines about its mean. With $α=T_0\langle S\rangle/W$ and $σ^2$ the relative variance of the dissipation, $1/(1+α)<\langleη\rangle\leσ^2/(1+σ^2)+1/\{(1+σ^2)[1+α(1+σ^2)]\}$, both ends sharp, with no distributional assumption. The floor is Jensen's inequality: fluctuating dissipation raises the mean efficiency above its deterministic value, and the mean alone gives nothing more. The ceiling is attained by an intermittently reversible law, dissipating nothing in a fraction $σ^2/(1+σ^2)$ of realisations, a prediction testable on trajectories. A third moment lifts the floor. Fixed delivered work is not required: when it too fluctuates, the bounds hold with the moments taken on $T_0S/W$, and the thermodynamic uncertainty relation on the work current converts the ceiling into a precision-efficiency frontier, whose zero-variance member is the known bound on a motor's ratio-of-means efficiency, shown here to be unsafe for the mean of the fluctuating ratio. Inside the interval lies the maximum-entropy benchmark $α^{-1}e^{1/α}E_1(1/α)$. Finally the bounds are worked out for a motor with futile cycles, observed until a fixed number of steps is delivered. There the dissipation cannot fall below the reversible cost of that work, and this floor $b$ sharpens the ceiling to $q/(1+αb)+(1-q)/(1+αc)$, $q=σ^2/[σ^2+(1-b)^2]$, $c=1+σ^2/(1-b)$, removing 40-67 per cent of the width. It is saturated when slips are rare: the extremal law is an operating regime, not an idealisation.

Amplified Memory and Finite-Time Regularity in Driven Non-Hermitian Systems

We study the roles of broken spectra and exceptional points in finite-time driven non-Hermitian fermionic dynamics. We compute the Nambu biorthogonal correlation matrix for this purpose. The imbalanced-pairing Kitaev chain serves as our concrete realization. Transient passage through a broken-spectrum region amplifies preparation memory. The effect survives when the final Hamiltonian returns to a real-spectrum regime. Negative imbalance forces spectral nonpositivity in the static endpoint state. We isolate the genuine drive history by subtracting out this baseline, leaving an excess that is strictly controlled by the accumulated imaginary-energy action and persists over the entire post-ramp time window. A connected longitudinal correlation mirrors this physics. Its slow-ramp growth tracks the corresponding doubled action. Unstable sectors instead continue amplifying post-ramp if the drive halts inside the broken-spectrum region. Exceptional points yield distinct physics. The finite-time propagator and subsystem correlation matrix remain entirely regular near an exceptional endpoint, even as the quasiparticle gap exhibits its characteristic square-root closing. This finite-time regularity reflects the analyticity of the matrix evolution in the endpoint parameter; a diagonalizable endpoint is strictly not required. A diverging long-time crossover eventually reveals the exceptional scale. We halt the drive exactly at the exceptional point to find that the correlation projector and the connected longitudinal correlation share an identical ballisti front. The subsystem saturation length establishes a distinct but comparable spatial scale. Memory and exceptional-endpoint scalings show no divergence across the tested negative-imbalance range. Memory scaling is fixed by the drive and remains insensitive to the specific choice of real-spectrum final endpoint.

Multidimensional dynamical centrality from Green functions in complex networks

Conventional centrality measures provide compact descriptions of node importance, but they emphasize specific structural relations and do not directly resolve the temporal and spectral organization of dynamical perturbation responses. Building on the Green function of a linearized networked system, we develop a multidimensional framework for dynamical node characterization. From the same response function, we extract three complementary indicators---Influence, Efficiency, and Distortion---that quantify cumulative response strength, temporal rate of response, and spectral concentration, respectively, together with a contribution matrix that resolves these quantities into source--target pathways. As a numerical demonstration, we apply the framework to weighted Kuramoto--Sakaguchi dynamics on heterogeneous Barabási--Albert networks. The three indicators distinguish implanted dynamical node classes through complementary dimensions of the perturbation response, while remaining strongly coupled to conventional topological centralities. These results demonstrate how a common dynamical response can be decomposed into distinct, physically interpretable characteristics rather than represented by a single aggregate descriptor. We finally discuss the scope and limitations of the linear-response assumption and extensions to time-dependent and nonlinear regimes.
