Singular repulsive barrier V (x) = −gln(|x|) inside a square-well is interpreted and studied as a linear analog of the state-dependent interaction ℒeff(x) = −gln[ψ∗(x)ψ(x)] in nonlinear Schrödinger equation. In the linearized case, Rayleigh–Schrödinger perturbation theory is shown to provide a closed-form spectrum at sufficiently small g or after a...

... the logarithmically singular but still positive-definite barrier the unperturbed spectrum is being pushed upwards. Still, due to the immanent weakness of the singularity of the logarithmic type even in the strong-coupling dynamical regime with g ≫ 1, the expected effect of the quasi- degeneracy will get quickly suppressed with the growth of n, i.e., of the excitation. In contrast to the stronger and more common (e.g., power-law) models of the repulsion in the origin, this will make the real influence of the logarithmic barrier restricted to the low-lying spectrum. Table 1: The first ten numerical coefficients E [1] n in Eq. (10). Fig. 2 may be recalled for an explicit quantitative illustration of the latter expectation. Using just the most elementary leading-order-approximation estimates we see there that while the pre- diction of the quasi-degeneracy between the ground (i.e., n = 0) and the first excited (i.e., n = 1) state might still occur near the reasonably small value of coupling g [1] 0,1 = 4.540138798, the next analogous crossing of the first-order energies E [1] 2 and E [1] 3 only takes place near the estimate as large as g [1] 2,3 = 29.13203044, etc. The same Fig. 2 also shows that another first-order crossing may be detected for E [1] 0 and E [1] 2 , emerging even earlier (i.e., at g [1] 0,2 = 23.96744320) and being, obviously, spurious. In other words, for the prediction of the quasidegeneracy in the strong-coupling dynamical regime the knowledge of the mere first-order perturbation corrections must be declared ...

We explore the phenomena of absorption/emission of solitons by an integrable boundary for the focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation on the half-line. This is based on the investigation of time-dependent reflection matrices which satisfy the boundary zero curvature equation. In particular, this leads to absorption/emission processes at the boundar...
Families of discrete quantum models that describe a free non-relativistic quantum particle propagating on rescaled and shifted dual weight lattices inside closures of Weyl alcoves are developed. The boundary conditions of the presented discrete quantum billiards are enforced by precisely positioned Dirichlet and Neumann walls on the borders of the...
We study standing waves of the NLS equation posed on the double-bridge graph: two semi-infinite half-lines attached at a circle. At the two vertices, Kirchhoff boundary conditions are imposed. We pursue a recent study concerning solutions nonzero on the half-lines and periodic on the circle, by proving some existing results of sign-changing solutio...
We consider solving the stationary Dirac equation for a spin-1/2 fermion confined in a two dimensional quantum billiard with a regular hexagon boundary, using symmetry transformations of the point group C6v.
Closed-form bound-state solutions for this problem are obtained and the nonrelativistic limit of our results are clearly discussed. Due to an...
Quantum Field Theories (QFTs) in Anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime are often strongly coupled when the radius of AdS is large, and few methods are available to study them. In this work, we develop a Hamiltonian truncation method to compute the energy spectrum of QFTs in two-dimensional AdS. The infinite volume of constant timeslices of AdS leads to di...

We derive an effective gravitational potential, induced by the quantum wavefunction of a physical vacuum of a self-gravitating configuration, while the vacuum itself is viewed as the superfluid described by the logarithmic quantum wave equation. We determine that gravity has a multiple-scale pattern, to such an extent that one can distinguish sub-Newtonian, Newtonian, galactic, extragalactic and cosmological terms. The last of these dominates at the largest length scale of the model, where superfluid vacuum induces an asymptotically Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker-type spacetime, which provides an explanation for the accelerating expansion of the Universe. The model describes different types of expansion mechanisms, which could explain the discrepancy between measurements of the Hubble constant using different methods. On a galactic scale, our model explains the non-Keplerian behaviour of galactic rotation curves, and also why their profiles can vary depending on the galaxy. It also makes a number of predictions about the behaviour of gravity at larger galactic and extragalactic scales. We demonstrate how the behaviour of rotation curves varies with distance from a gravitating center, growing from an inner galactic scale towards a metagalactic scale: A squared orbital velocity’s profile crosses over from Keplerian to flat, and then to non-flat. The asymptotic non-flat regime is thus expected to be seen in the outer regions of large spiral galaxies.
Anharmonic oscillator is considered using an unusual, logarithmic form of the anharmonicity. The model is shown connected with the more conventional power-law anharmonicity ∼|x|α in the limit α → 0. An efficient and user-friendly method of the solution of the model is found in the large-N expansion technique.
