Using the operator method and properties of $O(2,1)$ algebra, the integral representation for the two-dimensional Green's function of an electron in the field of a magnetic monopole is found. This representation is valid in all complex plane of the electron energy.
The scheme of experiment for studying electron scattering in the field of a magnetic monopole in two dimensional electron gas is proposed. The differential scattering cross section is obtained in the eikonal approximation. For unpolarized initial electron, the differential cross section coincides with that in the field of an infinitely long solenoid, up to redefinition of a magnetic flux. It is shown that the scattered electron becomes polarized even for unpolarized initial electron. Besides, in an experimental setup similar to the Hall experiment, the spin polarization arises in the direction perpendicular to the electron current.
The scattering of a nonrelativistic electron on a narrow solenoid of finite length is considered. In this case, the magnetic field outside the solenoid is not zero. Using the eikonal approximation, the differential and total cross sections of the process are found. It is shown that the total cross section is finite, in contrast to the case of scattering on an infinitely long solenoid (Aharonov-Bohm effect). An asymmetry in the scattering cross section is also found, which can be observed in an experiment.
The interaction model of two electrons in the edge states of a two-dimensional topological insulator is investigated. Both solutions of the Schrödinger equation and solutions of the Bethe-Salpeter equation at different values of the Fermi energy are considered. It is shown that for the Bethe-Salpeter equation, which takes into account the existence of the Fermi surface, there is a discrete spectrum in the system of two electrons. This phenomenon does not appear in the case of the Schrödinger equation.
The non-stationary Aharonov-Bohm effect (scattering of electron in the field of a narrow solenoid with alternating current) is considered. Using the eikonal approximation, the wave function of electron, the differential and total scattering cross sections are found. Unlike the case of direct current, the total cross section in the case of alternating current turns out to be finite. An oscillating asymmetry in the differential scattering cross section is discovered. The possibility of experimental observation of the effect is discussed.
We calculate analytically the charge density $ρ_{\text{ind}}(\boldsymbol{r})$ at small distances induced by a Coulomb impurity in two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides. The calculations were performed exactly in the coupling constant. We found the first three leading terms of the charge density asymptotics at small distances. Using this result, we demonstrate that the impurity with charge number $Z=1$ remains subcritical at any value of the coupling constant, whereas impurities with higher charge number could become supercritical at certain coupling constant values. Such a behavior is similar to that in graphene.
We introduce a new approach to reservoir computing based on up-sampling and modulation, utilizing semiconductor optical amplifier and photodetector as nonlinear elements without conventionally used delay loop. We demonstrated the 400-step prediction capability of the proposed scheme for the Mackey-Glass time series test.
The interacting electron and hole in transition-metal dichalcogenides is considered. For investigation of the interaction between electron and hole we obtain the Bethe-Salpeter equation for two interacting Dirac particles. The dependence of a few lowest binding energies of electron and hole on the interaction constant for different potentials is found. We demonstrate that the behavior of the potential at small distances significantly affects on the values of the binding energies. For small interaction constant we have developed the perturbative method of the binding energy calculation. For the largre interaction constant the binding energies are found numerically. The critical values of the interaction constant for the Coulomb potential and exponential potential are found.
We consider the information channel described by Schrödinger equation with additive Gaussian noise. We introduce the model of the input signal and the model of the output signal receiver. For this channel, using perturbation theory for the small nonlinearity parameter, we calculate the first three terms of the expansion of the conditional probability density function in the nonlinearity parameter. At large signal-to-noise power ratio we calculate the conditional entropy, the output signal entropy, and the mutual information in the leading and next-to-leading order in the nonlinearity parameter and in the leading order in the parameter $1/\mathrm{SNR}$. Using the mutual information we find the optimal input signal distribution and channel capacity in the leading and next-to-leading order in the nonlinearity parameter. Finally, we present the method of the construction of the input signal with the optimal statistics for the given shape of the signal.
We consider the optical fiber channel modelled by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with additive white Gaussian noise and with large signal-to-noise ratio. For the small dispersion case we present the approach to analyze the stochastic nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Taking into account the averaging procedure (frequency filtering) of the output signal detector we find the first corrections in small dispersion parameter to the correlators of the input signal recovered by the backward propagation. These correlators are the important ingredients for the calculation of the channel capacity and the optimal input signal distribution. We assert that the information channel characteristics essentially depend on the procedures of the output signal filtering and the recovery of the transmitted signal.
In our previous paper [Phys. Rev. E 95, 062122 (2017)] we considered the optical channel modelled by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with zero dispersion and additive Gaussian noise. We found per-sample channel capacity rof this model. In the present paper we extend per-sample model by introducing the initial signal dependence on time and the output signal detection procedure. The proposed model is a closer approximation of the realistic communication link than the per-sample model where there is no dependence of the initial signal on time. For the proposed model we found the correlators of the output signal both analytically and numerically. Using these correlators we built the conditional probability density function. Then we calculated an entropy of the output signal, a conditional entropy, and the mutual information. Maximizing the mutual information we found the optimal input signal distribution, channel capacity? and their dependence on the shape or the initial signal in the time domain for the intermediate power range.
The wave equation describing the interaction of two electrons in graphene at arbitrary value of the Fermi energy $E_F$ is derived. For the solutions of this equation, we have found the explicit forms of the density and the current which obey the continuity equation. We have traced the evolution of the wave packet during a scattering process. It is shown that the long-leaving localized quasi-stationary peak may appear at $E_F<0$ . Then this peak decays into a set of wave packets following each other. At $t\rightarrow\infty$ a total norm of all outgoing wave packets equals to that of incoming wave packet. At $E_F=0$ the localized state does not appear. For $E_F<0$ there is an infinite set of the localized solutions with the finite norms.
We consider the optical fiber channel modelled by the nonlinear Shrödinger equation with zero dispersion and additive Gaussian noise. Using Feynman path-integral approach for the model we find corrections to conditional probability density function, output signal distribution, conditional and output signal entropies, and the channel capacity at large signal-to-noise ratio. We demonstrate that the correction to the channel capacity is positive for large signal power. Therefore, this correction increases the earlier calculated capacity for a nondispersive nonlinear optical fiber channel in the intermediate power region.
Applying perturbation theory to the path-integral representation for the mutual information of the nonlinear communication channel described by the nonlinear Shrödinger equation (NLSE) with the additive Gaussian noise we analyze the analytical expression for the mutual information at large signal-to-noise ratio ($\mathrm{SNR}$) and small nonlinearity. We classify all possible corrections to the mutual information in nonlinearity parameter and demonstrate that all singular in $\mathrm{SNR}$ terms vanish in the final result. Furthermore our analytical result demonstrates that the corrections to Shannon's contribution to the mutual information in the leading order in $\mathrm{SNR}$ are of order of squared nonlinearity parameter. We outline the way for the calculation of these corrections in the further investigations.
Using the path-integral technique we examine the mutual information for the communication channel modelled by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with additive Gaussian noise. The nonlinear Schrödinger equation is one of the fundamental models in nonlinear physics, and it has a broad range of applications, including fiber optical communications --- the backbone of the Internet. At large signal-to-noise ratio ($\mathrm{SNR}$) we present the mutual information through the path-integral which is convenient for the perturbative expansion in nonlinearity. In the limit of small noise and small nonlinearity we derive analytically the first nonzero nonlinear correction to the mutual information for the channel.
We consider a model nondispersive nonlinear optical fiber channel with additive white Gaussian noise at large $\mathrm{SNR}$ (signal-to-noise ratio) in the intermediate power region. Using Feynman path-integral technique we for the first time find the optimal input signal distribution maximizing the channel's per-sample mutual information. The finding of the optimal input signal distribution allows us to improve previously known estimates for the channel capacity. The output signal entropy, conditional entropy, and per-sample mutual information are calculated for Gaussian, half-Gaussian and modified Gaussian input signal distributions. We explicitly show that in the intermediate power regime the per-sample mutual information for the optimal input signal distribution is greater than the per-sample mutual information for the Gaussian and half-Gaussian input signal distributions.
A residual disorder in the gate system is the main problem on the way to create artificial graphene based on two-dimensional electron gas. The disorder can be significantly screened/reduced due to the many-body effects. To analyse the screening/disorder problem we consider AlGaAs/GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure with two metallic gates. We demonstrate that the design least susceptible to the disorder corresponds to the weak coupling regime (opposite to tight binding) which is realised via system of quantum anti-dots. The most relevant type of disorder is the area disorder which is a random variation of areas of quantum anti-dots. The area disorder results in formation of puddles. Other types of disorder, the position disorder and the shape disorder, are practically irrelevant. The formation/importance of puddles dramatically depends on parameters of the nanopatterned heterostructure. A variation of the parameters by 20--30\% can change the relative amplitude of puddles by orders of magnitude. Based on this analysis we formulate criteria for the acceptable design of the heterostructure aimed at creation of the artificial graphene.
The method for computation of conditional probability density function for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with additive noise is developed. We present in a constructive form the conditional probability density function in the limit of a small noise and analytically derive it in a weakly nonlinear case. The general theory results are illustrated using fibre-optic communications as a particular, albeit practically very important, example.
