Borel-Leroy summability of a nonpolynomial potential

We investigate the perturbation series for the spectrum of a class of Schrodinger operators with potential V = 1/2 x(2) + g(m-1)x(2m)/(1 + alpha gx(2)) which generalize particular cases investigated in the literature in connection with models in laser theory and quantum field theory of particles and fields. It is proved that the series obey a modified strong asymptotic condition of order (m - 1) and have an order (m - 1) strong asymptotic series in g which are shown to be summable in the sense of Borel-Leroy method.

Caminhos do lembrar: a construção e os usos políticos da memória no morro do Borel

O objetivo do presente trabalho é elaborar uma reflexão sobre os processos de construção e os usos políticos da memória na favela do Borel. Para o alcance dessa finalidade, serão analisados o livro “As lutas do povo do Borel”, de autoria de Manoel Gomes, ex-morador local e ex-militante comunista, já falecido, e o projeto Condutores de Memória, realizado por moradoras das favelas do Borel e da Casa Branca em parceria com a Agenda Social Rio. Desse modo, pretende-se pensar as características da articulação de diferentes atores na elaboração de suportes de memória de moradores de favelas, a partir do caso do Borel, bem como a forma como diferentes contextos históricos podem interferir na instrumentalização da memória como forma de reivindicação política.

Três métodos para o cálculo da série zeta(2n) de Riemann

Neste trabalho apresentamos três métodos distintos provando que S(n) = +1 X k=−1 (4k + 1)−n é um múltiplo racional de n para todos os inteiros n = 1, 2, 3, . . . O primeiro utiliza a teoria das função analíticas e funções geradoras. No segundo reduzimos o problema, via mudança de variável devida a E. Calabi, ao cálculo do volume de certos politopos em Rn enquanto que no terceiro usamos a teoria dos operadores integrais compactos. Cada um dos métodos tem um interesse intrínsico e está sujeito a generalizações para aplicações em novas situações.

Spin 1 fields in Riemann-Cartan space-times via Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau theory

We consider massive spin 1 fields, in Riemann-Cartan space-times, described by Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau theory. We show that this approach induces a coupling between the spin 1 field and the space-time torsion which breaks the usual equivalence with the Proca theory, but that such equivalence is preserved in the context of the Teleparallel Equivalent of General Relativity.

Massless DKP fields in Riemann-Cartan spacetimes

We study massless Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau (DKP) fields in the context of Einstein-Cartan gravitation theory, interacting via minimal coupling procedure. In the case of an identically vanishing torsion (Riemannian spacetimes) we show that there exist local gauge symmetries which reproduce the usual gauge symmetries for the massless scalar and electromagnetic fields. on the other hand, similarly to what happens with the Maxwell theory, a nonvanishing torsion, in general, breaks the usual U(1) local gauge symmetry of the electromagnetic field or, from a different point of view, imposes conditions on the torsion.

General soliton matrices in the Riemann-Hilbert problem for integrable nonlinear equations

We derive the soliton matrices corresponding to an arbitrary number of higher-order normal zeros for the matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem of arbitrary matrix dimension, thus giving the complete solution to the problem of higher-order solitons. Our soliton matrices explicitly give all higher-order multisoliton solutions to the nonlinear partial differential equations integrable through the matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem. We have applied these general results to the three-wave interaction system, and derived new classes of higher-order soliton and two-soliton solutions, in complement to those from our previous publication [Stud. Appl. Math. 110, 297 (2003)], where only the elementary higher-order zeros were considered. The higher-order solitons corresponding to nonelementary zeros generically describe the simultaneous breakup of a pumping wave (u(3)) into the other two components (u(1) and u(2)) and merger of u(1) and u(2) waves into the pumping u(3) wave. The two-soliton solutions corresponding to two simple zeros generically describe the breakup of the pumping u(3) wave into the u(1) and u(2) components, and the reverse process. In the nongeneric cases, these two-soliton solutions could describe the elastic interaction of the u(1) and u(2) waves, thus reproducing previous results obtained by Zakharov and Manakov [Zh. Eksp. Teor. Fiz. 69, 1654 (1975)] and Kaup [Stud. Appl. Math. 55, 9 (1976)]. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.

Reply to 'comment on 'Braneworld remarks in Riemann-Cartan manifolds''

In this brief reply, we elucidate some missing points in the comment (Khakshournia S 2009 Class. Quantum Grav. 26 178001) on our original paper (Hoff da Silva J M and da Rocha R 2009 Class. Quantum Grav. 26 055007), explicitly showing that the comment is unfounded in this context. We show that the term proposed equals zero, since the brane discontinuity is correctly defined in the torsion.

Sedenions of Cayley-Dickson and the Cauchy-Riemann like relations

This work is an extension to sedenions of the Cauchy-Riemann relations, following a similar earlier construction made by one of the authors (M. Borges) to quaternions and octonions, see [1], [2], [3]. © 2011 Academic Publications.
