Abstract

In this thesis, we consider some spin effects in QCD and recurrence lattices with multi-site exchanges. Main topic of our manuscript are critical phenomena in spin systems defined on the recurrence lattices. Main tool of our approach is the method of recursive (hierarchical) lattices. We apply the method of dynamical mapping (or recursive lattices) for investigation of magnetic properties of the fluid and solid $^3$He, phase transitions in crystals and macromolecules. First, we analyze the helix-coil phase transition for polypeptides and proteins, and describe an quasi unfolding transition (like the cold denaturation process) for the degree of helicity (the order parameter for macromolecules). Next we consider the recurrent models of $^3$He defined on the square, Husimi and hexagon lattices. Using the method of dynamical mapping, the magnetization curves with plateaus, bifurcation point and one period doubling are obtained. Then we investigate the model with cubic symmetry defined on the Bethe lattice and containing both linear and quadratic spin-spin interactions. The magnetization of the system is calculated, and a complex structure of the phase transitions between the disordered, partially ordered and completely ordered states is observed. In the framework of QCD, we consider the azimuthal asymmetries in heavy flavor production in the lepton-nucleon deep inelastic scattering (DIS). We calculate the azimuthal (or $ϕ$-) dependence of the next-to-leading order heavy-quark-initiated contributions to DIS. It is shown that, contrary to the basic gluon-initiated component, the photon-quark scattering mechanism is practically $\cos2ϕ$-independent. We investigate the possibility of measuring both nonperturbative (intrinsic) and perturbative (CTEQ, MRST) charm distributions using the $\cos2ϕ$ asymmetry.

Quantum Many-Body Mpemba Effect through Ruelle-Pollicott Resonances

Relaxation towards equilibrium is often assumed to be slower when a system starts farther from equilibrium, but this intuition fails in the Mpemba effect. Recent advances in controllable quantum platforms have enabled the exploration of its quantum analogue, the quantum Mpemba effect (QME), yet its microscopic origin remains largely unclear. Here we provide a general framework for understanding the QME in closed quantum many-body chaotic systems by reformulating the equilibration process of local subsystems in terms of Ruelle-Pollicott (RP) resonances. We show that suppressing the initial-state overlap with the dominant RP resonant mode accelerates subsystem equilibration and thereby yields the QME. We further uncover that a novel type of strong QME can occur via complete translation-symmetry breaking of initial states. We substantiate our predictions using the prototypical kicked Ising chain and a quantum automaton circuit. These findings cast the QME in closed many-body systems into a unified framework with open-system analogues and provide experimentally accessible signatures on state-of-the-art quantum platforms.

Protected domains and cooperative invasion on weighted networks

Reciprocal contacts can favor cooperation by protecting a lineage until its descendants compete as a group. An individual is chosen to reproduce from the whole population, with a probability increasing with its averaged cooperation payoff. Its offspring replaces a neighbor through contacts weighted equally in both directions. We compare a single cooperator taking over defectors with the reverse invasion, using the same distribution of introduction sites. When payoffs weakly affect reproduction, every network with at least six sites and a path visiting them all admits weights favoring cooperation at any benefit-cost ratio $b/c>1$. This holds for mutants placed uniformly or arising in newborn offspring. Unequal contacts sustain aligned domains around two protected sites, converting individual reproduction into collective competition. Cooperation cannot have an advantage when its benefit does not exceed its cost, at any positive selection strength with positive reproduction rates. Where mutants arise changes which contact patterns can use this mechanism. On a five-site path, the weak-selection threshold has the sharp lower bound seven under uniform placement; newborn introduction never favors cooperation at this order. We classify the contact patterns with at most five sites that can favor cooperation under either rule; newborn introduction requires a four- or five-site cycle. Tracing copies backward to their ancestors separates domain competition from the probability of reaching it. Exact polynomial inequalities prove sharp threshold bounds for paths and the four- and five-site cycles. The same ancestry reconstructs evolution without selection on weighted paths and cycles and fixes the slowest relaxation rate on every connected reciprocal network. Cooperation thus depends on both the collective competitors created by contacts and the route by which a new lineage enters them.

Dynamical phase transition for a logarithm observable in chaotic systems

We consider the full distribution $P_N(A)$ of the dynamical observable $A = - \sum_{i=1}^N \ln x_i$ where $x_1, \dots, x_N$ is a sequence generated by a chaotic map $f(x)$ via $x_{n+1} = f(x_n)$. We study the particular cases where $f(x)$ is the doubling, tent or logistic map, and focus on the limit $N \gg 1$. Typical fluctuations of $A$ are Gaussian with mean $\left\langle A\right\rangle$ and variance which are both of order $\sim N$. We find that the left tail of the distribution ($A < \left\langle A\right\rangle$) scales as $P_{N}(A) \sim e^{-NI(A/N)}$, and calculate the rate function $I(a)$ which depends on the map $f(x)$. Interestingly, we find that the right tail of the distribution ($A > \left\langle A\right\rangle$) follows an anomalous scaling: $P_{N}(A) \sim e^{-N^{1/3} F((A-\left\langle A\right\rangle) / N^{2/3})}$. The large-deviation function $F(y)$ has a universal form for the three maps, differing only in the scaling constants. At a critical value $y=y_c$, it exhibits a corner singularity which has the character of a condensation transition. The transition separates between a subcritical phase $0< y y_c$ in which a small fraction of the $x_i$'s give a macroscopic contribution to the fluctuation. Despite this anomalous behavior of the right tail, we find that the cumulants of the distribution $P_N(A)$ grow linearly with $N$ at large $N$, and calculate the associated coefficients.
