Non interacting electron gas model of quantum Hall effect

On the basis of our previous studies on energy levels and wave functions of single electrons in a strong magnetic field, the energy levels and wave functions of non-interacting electron gas system, electron gas Hall surface density and Hall resistance of electron gas system are calculated. Then, a comparison is made between non-interaction electron gas model and Laughlin's interaction two dimensional electron gas system. It is found that the former can more quickly and unified the explain the integer and the fractional quantum Hall effects without the help of concepts proposed by Laughlin, such as fractionally charged quasi-particles and quasi-holes which obey fractional statistics. After explicit calculation, it is also discovered that quantum Hall effect has the same physical nature as superconducting state.

Theoretical basis for the unification of the integer and the fractional quantum Hall effects

This paper intends to provide a theoretical basis for the unification of the integer and the fractional quantum Hall effects. Guided by concepts and theories of quantum mechanics and with the solution of the Pauli equation in a magnetic field under the symmetric gauge, wave functions, energy levels of single electrons, and the expectation value of electron's spatial scope are presented. After the quotation of non-interaction dilute gas system, the product of single electron's wave functions is used to construct wave functions of the N electron gas system in magnetic field. Then the expectation value of the system's motion area and the electron's surface density are obtained. In this way, the unification explaination of the integer and the fractional quantum Hall effects is formulated without the help of the concept of fractional charge.

Crossover between weak localization and weak antilocalization in magnetically doped topological insulator

Topological insulators (TI) are a new class of quantum materials with insulating bulk enclosed by topologically protected metallic boundaries. The surface states of three-dimensional TIs have spin helical Dirac structure, and are robust against time reversal invariant perturbations. This extraordinary property is notably exemplified by the absence of backscattering by nonmagnetic impurities and the weak antilocalization (WAL) of Dirac fermions. Breaking the time reversal symmetry (TRS) by magnetic element doping is predicted to create a variety of exotic topological magnetoelectric effects. Here we report transport studies on magnetically doped TI Cr-Bi2Se3. With increasing Cr concentration, the low temperature electrical conduction exhibits a characteristic crossover from WAL to weak localization (WL). In the heavily doped regime where WL dominates at the ground state, WAL reenters as temperature rises, but can be driven back to WL by strong magnetic field. These complex phenomena can be explained by a unified picture involving the evolution of Berry phase with the energy gap opened by magnetic impurities. This work demonstrates an effective way to manipulate the topological transport properties of the TI surface states by TRS-breaking perturbations.

From one solution of a 3-satisfiability formula to a solution cluster: Frozen variables and entropy

A solution to a 3-satisfiability (3-SAT) formula can be expanded into a cluster, all other solutions of which are reachable from this one through a sequence of single-spin flips. Some variables in the solution cluster are frozen to the same spin values by one of two different mechanisms: frozen-core formation and long-range frustrations. While frozen cores are identified by a local whitening algorithm, long-range frustrations are very difficult to trace, and they make an entropic belief-propagation (BP) algorithm fail to converge. For BP to reach a fixed point the spin values of a tiny fraction of variables (chosen according to the whitening algorithm) are externally fixed during the iteration. From the calculated entropy values, we infer that, for a large random 3-SAT formula with constraint density close to the satisfiability threshold, the solutions obtained by the survey-propagation or the walksat algorithm belong neither to the most dominating clusters of the formula nor to the most abundant clusters. This work indicates that a single solution cluster of a random 3-SAT formula may have further community structures.

The Aharonov-Casher effect for spin-1 particles in non-commutative quantum mechanics

By using a generalized Bopp's shift formulation, instead of star product method, we investigate the Aharonov-Casher(AC) effect for a spin-1 neutral particle in non-commutative(NC) quantum mechanics. After solving the Kemmer equations both on a non-commutative space and a non-commutative phase space, we obtain the corrections to the topological phase of the AC effect for a spin-1 neutral particle both on a NC space and a NC phase space.

Landau Problem in Noncommutative Quantum Mechanics

The Landau problem in non-commutative quantum mechanics (NCQM) is studied. First by solving the Schr$\ddot{o}$dinger equations on noncommutative(NC) space we obtain the Landau energy levels and the energy correction that is caused by space-space noncommutativity. Then we discuss the noncommutative phase space case, namely, space-space and momentum-momentum non-commutative case, and we get the explicit expression of the Hamiltonian as well as the corresponding eigenfunctions and eigenvalues.

Distribution of equilibrium free energies in a thermodynamic system with broken ergodicity

At low temperatures the configurational phase space of a macroscopic complex system (e.g., a spin-glass) of $N\sim 10^{23}$ interacting particles may split into an exponential number $Ω_s \sim \exp({\rm const} \times N)$ of ergodic sub-spaces (thermodynamic states). Previous theoretical studies assumed that the equilibrium collective behavior of such a system is determined by its ground thermodynamic states of the minimal free-energy density, and that the equilibrium free energies follow the distribution of exponential decay. Here we show that these assumptions are not necessarily valid. For some complex systems, the equilibrium free-energy values may follow a Gaussian distribution within an intermediate temperature range, and consequently their equilibrium properties are contributed by {\em excited} thermodynamic states. This work will help improving our understanding of the equilibrium statistical mechanics of spin-glasses and other complex systems.

Non-commutative phase space and its space-time symmetry

First a description of 2+1 dimensional non-commutative(NC) phase space is presented, where the deformation of the planck constant is given. We find that in this new formulation, generalized Bopp's shift has a symmetric representation and one can easily and straightforwardly define the star product on NC phase space. Then we define non-commutative Lorentz transformations both on NC space and NC phase space. We also discuss the Poincare symmetry. Finally we point out that our NC phase space formulation and the NC Lorentz transformations can be applicable to any even dimensional NC space and NC phase space.

Scalar Gravity and Higgs Mechanism

The role that the auxiliary scalar field $ϕ$ played in Brans-Dicke cosmology is discussed. If a constant vacuum energy is assumed to be the origin of dark energy, then the corresponding density parameter would be a quantity varying with $ϕ$; and almost all of the fundamental components of our universe can be unified into the dynamical equation for $ϕ$. As a generalization of Brans-Dicke theory, we propose a new gravity theory with a complex scalar field $ϕ$ which is coupled to the cosmological curvature scalar. Through such a coupling, the Higgs mechanism is naturally incorporated into the evolution of the universe, and a running density of the field vacuum energy is obtained which may release the particle standard model from the rigorous cosmological constant problem in some sense. Our model predicts a running mass scale of the fundamental particles in which the gauge symmetry breaks spontaneously. The running speed of the mass scale in our case could survive all existing experiments.

Finally, the basic uncertainty relations for space-space and space-momentum as well as momentum-momentum operators in noncommutative quantum mechanics (NCQM), and uncertainty relation for arbitrary physical observable operators in NCQM are discussed.

Some comments to paper [SD] are also mentioned.
