Algebraic solution of an anisotropic nonquadratic potential

We show that an anisotropic nonquadratic potential, for which a path integral treatment has been recently discussed in the literature, possesses the SO(2, 1) ⊗SO(2, 1) ⊗SO(2, 1) dynamical symmetry, and construct its Green function algebraically. A particular case which generates new eigenvalues and eigenfunctions is also discussed. © 1990.

A Monte Carlo study of the anisotropic N=3 Ashkin-Teller model

The phase diagram of an asymmetric N = 3 Ashkin-Teller model is obtained by a numerical analysis which combines Monte Carlo renormalization group and reweighting techniques. Present results reveal several differences with those obtained by mean-field calculations and a Hamiltonian approach. In particular, we found Ising critical exponents along a line where Goldschmidt has located the Kosterlitz-Thouless multicritical point. On the other hand, we did find nonuniversal exponents along another transition line. Symmetry breaking in this case is very similar to the N = 2 case, since the symmetries associated to only two of the Ising variables are broken. However, for large values of the coupling constant ratio XW = W/K, when the only broken symmetry is of a hidden variable, we detected first-order phase transitions giving evidence supporting the existence of a multicritical point, as suggested by Goldschmidt, but in a different region of the phase diagram. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

Algebraic solution of an anisotropic ring-shaped oscillator

Using an algebraic technique related to the SO (2, 1) group we construct the Green function for the potential ar2 + b(r sin θ)-2 + c(r cos θ)-2 + dr2 sin2θ + er2 cos2θ. The energy spectrum and the normalized wave functions are also obtained. © 1990.
