Harmonic diffeomorphisms between pseudo-riemannian surfaces

We study locally harmonic maps between a Riemann surface or Lorentz surface $M$ and a Riemann surface or Lorentz surface $N$. {All four cases are studied in a unified way}. All four cases are written using a unified formalism. Therefore solutions to the harmonic map problem can be studied in a unified way. Harmonic maps between pseudo-Riemannian surfaces are classified by the classification of the solutions of a generalized sine-Gordon equation. We then study the one-soliton solutions of this equation and we find the corresponding harmonic maps in a unified way. Next, we discuss a Bäcklund transformation of the harmonic map equations that provides a connection between the solutions of two sine-Gordon type equations. Finally, we give an example of a harmonic map that is constructed by the use of a Bäcklund transformation.

Super-Hopf realizations of Lie Superalgebras: Braided Paraparticle extensions of the Jordan-Schwinger map

The mathematical structure of a mixed paraparticle system (combining both parabosonic and parafermionic degrees of freedom) commonly known as the Relative Parabose Set, will be investigated and a braided group structure will be described for it. A new family of realizations of an arbitrary Lie superalgebra will be presented and it will be shown that these realizations possess the valuable representation-theoretic property of transferring invariably the super-Hopf structure. Finally two classes of virtual applications will be outlined: The first is of interest for both mathematics and mathematical physics and deals with the representation theory of infinite dimensional Lie superalgebras, while the second is of interest in theoretical physics and has to do with attempts to determine specific classes of solutions of the Skyrme model.

Mixed Paraparticles, Colors, Braidings and a new class of Realizations for Lie superalgebras

A rigorous algebraic description of the notion of realization, specialized in the case of Lie superalgebras is given. The idea of the Relative Parabose set $P_{BF}$ is recalled together with some recent developments and its braided group structure is established together with an extended discussion of its ($\mathbb{Z}_{2} \times \mathbb{Z}_{2}$)-grading. The final result of the paper employs $P_{BF}$ in order to realize an arbitrary Lie superalgebra. It is furthermore shown that the constructed realization is a $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$-graded Hopf algebra homomorphism. Virtual applications in pure mathematics and theoretical physics as well are outlined.

Improving quantum gate fidelities using optimized Euler angles

An explicit algorithm for calculating the optimized Euler angles for both qubit state transfer and gate engineering given two arbitary fixed Hamiltonians is presented. It is shown how the algorithm enables us to efficiently implement single qubit gates even if the control is severely restricted and the experimentally accessible Hamiltonians are far from orthogonal. It is further shown that using the optimized Euler angles can significantly improve the fidelity of quantum operations even for systems where the experimentally accessible Hamiltonians are nearly orthogonal. Unlike schemes such as composite pulses, the proposed scheme does not significantly increase the number of local operations or gate operation times.

Variants of bosonisation in Parabosonic algebra. The Hopf and super-Hopf structures

Parabosonic algebra in finite or infinite degrees of freedom is considered as a $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$-graded associative algebra, and is shown to be a $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$-graded (or: super) Hopf algebra. The super-Hopf algebraic structure of the parabosonic algebra is established directly without appealing to its relation to the $osp(1/2n)$ Lie superalgebraic structure. The notion of super-Hopf algebra is equivalently described as a Hopf algebra in the braided monoidal category ${}_{\mathbb{CZ}_{2}}\mathcal{M}$. The bosonisation technique for switching a Hopf algebra in the braided monoidal category ${}_{H}\mathcal{M}$ (where $H$ is a quasitriangular Hopf algebra) into an ordinary Hopf algebra is reviewed. In this paper we prove that for the parabosonic algebra $P_{B}$, beyond the application of the bosonisation technique to the original super-Hopf algebra, a bosonisation-like construction is also achieved using two operators, related to the parabosonic total number operator. Both techniques switch the same super-Hopf algebra $P_{B}$ to an ordinary Hopf algebra, producing thus two different variants of $P_{B}$, with ordinary Hopf structure.

Ternary Poisson algebra for the non degenerate three dimensional Kepler Coulomb potential

In the three dimensional flat space any classical Hamiltonian, which has five functionally independent integrals of motion, including the Hamiltonian, is characterized as superintegrable. Kalnins, Kress and Miller have proved that, in the case of non degenerate potentials, i.e potentials depending linearly on four parameters, with quadratic symmetries, posses a sixth quadratic integral, which is linearly independent of the other integrals. The existence of this sixth integral imply that the integrals of motion form a ternary parafermionic-like quadratic Poisson algebra with five generators. The Kepler Coulomb potential that was introduced by Verrier and Evans is a special case of superintegrable system, having two independent integrals of motion of fourth order among the remaining quadratic ones. The corresponding Poisson algebra of integrals is a quadratic one, having the same special form, characteristic to the non degenerate case of systems with quadratic integrals.

Quadratic algebras for three dimensional non degenerate superintegrable systems with quadratic integrals of motion

The three dimensional superintegrable systems with quadratic integrals of motion have five functionally independent integrals, one among them is the Hamiltonian. Kalnins, Kress and Miller have proved that in the case of non degenerate potentials there is a sixth quadratic integral, which is linearly independent of the other integrals. The existence of this sixth integral imply that the integrals of motion form a ternary {parafermionic-like} quadratic Poisson algebra with five generators. We show that in all the non degenerate cases (with one exception) there are at least two subalgebras of three integrals having a Poisson quadratic algebra structure, which is similar to the two dimensional case.

Paraboson quotients. A braided look at Green ansatz and a generalization

Bosons and Parabosons are described as associative superalgebras, with an infinite number of odd generators. Bosons are shown to be a quotient superalgebra of Parabosons, establishing thus an even algebra epimorphism which is an immediate link between their simple modules. Parabosons are shown to be a super-Hopf algebra. The super-Hopf algebraic structure of Parabosons, combined with the projection epimorphism previously stated, provides us with a braided interpretation of the Green's ansatz device and of the parabosonic Fock-like representations. This braided interpretation combined with an old problem leads to the construction of a straightforward generalization of Green's ansatz.

Graded structure and Hopf structures in parabosonic algebra. An alternative approach to bosonisation

Parabosonic algebra in infinite degrees of freedom is presented as a generalization of the bosonic algebra, from the viewpoints of both physics and mathematics. The notion of super-Hopf algebra is shortly discussed and the super-Hopf algebraic structure of the parabosonic algebra is established (without appealing to its Lie superalgebraic structure). Two possible variants of the parabosonic algebra are presented and their (ordinary) Hopf algebraic structure is estabished: The first is produced by "bosonising" the original super-Hopf algebra, while the second is constructed via a slightly different path.

Unified treatment and classification of superintegrable systems with integrals quadratic in momenta on a two dimensional manifold

In this paper we prove that the two dimensional superintegrable systems with quadratic integrals of motion on a manifold can be classified by using the Poisson algebra of the integrals of motion. There are six general fundamental classes of superintegrable systems. Analytic formulas for the involved integrals are calculated in all the cases. All the known superintegrable systems are classified as special cases of these six general classes.

Parabosonic and parafermionic algebras. Graded structure and Hopf structures

Parabosonic $P_{B}^{(n)}$ and parafermionic $P_{F}^{(n)}$ algebras are described as quotients of the tensor algebras of suitably choosen vector spaces. Their (super-) Lie algebraic structure and consequently their (super-) Hopf structure is shortly discussed. A bosonisation-like construction is presented, which produces an ordinary Hopf algebra $P_{B(K^{\pm})}^{(n)}$ starting from the super Hopf algebra $P_{B}^{(n)}$.

Bosonisation and Parastatistics: An Example and an Alternative Approach

Definitions of the parastatistics algebras and known results on their Lie (super)algebraic structure are reviewed. The notion of super-Hopf algebra is discussed. The bosonisation technique for switching a Hopf algebra in a braided category ${}_{H}\mathcal{M}$ ($H$: a quasitriangular Hopf algebra) into an ordinary Hopf algebra is presented and it is applied in the case of the parabosonic algebra. A bosonisation-like construction is also introduced for the same algebra and the differences are discussed.

Quantum Computation Beyond the "Standard Circuit Model"

Construction of explicit quantum circuits follows the notion of the "standard circuit model" introduced in the solid and profound analysis of elementary gates providing quantum computation. Nevertheless the model is not always optimal (e.g. concerning the number of computational steps) and it neglects physical systems which cannot follow the "standard circuit model" analysis. We propose a computational scheme which overcomes the notion of the transposition from classical circuits providing a computation scheme with the least possible number of Hamiltonians in order to minimize the physical resources needed to perform quantum computation and to succeed a minimization of the computational procedure (minimizing the number of computational steps needed to perform an arbitrary unitary transformation). It is a general scheme of construction, independent of the specific system used for the implementation of the quantum computer. The open problem of controllability in Lie groups is directly related and rises to prominence in an effort to perform universal quantum computation.

Odd-Even Staggering in Octupole Bands of Actinides and Rare Earths: Systematics of "Beat" Patterns

``Beat'' patterns are shown to appear in the octupole bands of several actinides and rare earths, their appearance being independent from the formula used in order to isolate and demonstrate them. It is shown that the recent formalism, making use of discrete approximations to derivatives of the transition energies (or of the energy levels) gives results consistent with the traditional formulae. In both regions it is seen that the first vanishing of the staggering occurs at higher values of the angular momentum I in nuclei exhibiting higher staggering at low I. Since these nuclei happen to be good rotators, the observed slow decrease of the amplitude of the staggering with increasing I is in good agreement with the parameter independent predictions of the su(3) (rotational) limit of several algebraic models. In the actinides it has been found that within each series of isotopes the odd-even staggering exhibits minima at N=134 and N=146, while a local maximum is shown at N=142, these findings being in agreement with the recent suggestion of a secondary maximum of octupole deformation around N=146.

Quantum machine language and quantum computation with Josephson junctions

An implementation method of a gate in a quantum computer is studied in terms of a finite number of steps evolving in time according to a finite number of basic Hamiltonians, which are controlled by on-off switches. As a working example, the case of a particular implementation of the two qubit computer employing a simple system of two coupled Josephson junctions is considered. The binary values of the switches together with the time durations of the steps constitute the quantum machine language of the system.

Staggering effects in nuclear and molecular spectra

It is shown that the recently observed Delta J = 2 staggering effect (i.e. the relative displacement of the levels with angular momenta J, J+4, J+8, ..., relatively to the levels with angular momenta J+2, J+6, J+10, ...) seen in superdeformed nuclear bands is also occurring in certain electronically excited rotational bands of diatomic molecules (YD, CrD, CrH, CoH), in which it is attributed to interband interactions (bandcrossings). In addition, the Delta J = 1 staggering effect (i.e. the relative displacement of the levels with even angular momentum J with respect to the levels of the same band with odd J) is studied in molecular bands free from Delta J = 2 staggering (i.e. free from interband interactions/bandcrossings). Bands of YD offer evidence for the absence of any Delta J = 1 staggering effect due to the disparity of nuclear masses, while bands of sextet electronic states of CrD demonstrate that Delta J = 1 staggering is a sensitive probe of deviations from rotational behaviour, due in this particular case to the spin-rotation and spin-spin interactions.

Delta I = 1 staggering in octupole bands of light actinides: "Beat" patterns

The Delta I = 1 staggering (odd--even staggering) in octupole bands of light actinides is found to exhibit a ``beat'' behaviour as a function of the angular momentum I, forcing us to revise the traditional belief that this staggering decreases gradually to zero and then remains at this zero value. Various algebraic models (spf-Interacting Boson Model, spdf-IBM, Vector Boson Model, Nuclear Vibron Model) are shown to predict in their su(3) limits constant staggering for this case, being thus unable to describe the ``beat'' behaviour. An explanation of the ``beat'' behaviour is given in terms of two Dunham expansions (expansions in terms of powers of I(I+1)) with slightly different sets of coefficients for the ground state band and the negative parity band, the difference in the values of the coefficients being attributed to Coriolis couplings to other negative parity bands. Similar ``beat'' patterns have already been seen in rotational bands of some diatomic molecules, like AgH.
