Nonlinear Bloch modes, optical switching and Bragg solitons in tightly coupled micro-ring resonator chains

We study nonlinear wave phenomena in coupled ring resonator optical waveguides in the tight coupling regime. A discrete model for the system dynamics is put forward and its steady state nonlinear Bloch modes are derived. The switching behavior of the transmission system is addressed numerically and the results are explained in the light of this analytical result. We also present a numerical study on the spontaneous generation of Bragg solitons from a continuous-wave input.

Superintegrable Lissajous systems on the sphere

A kind of systems on the sphere, whose trajectories are similar to the Lissajous curves, are studied by means of one example. The symmetries are constructed following a unified and straightforward procedure for both the quantum and the classical versions of the model. In the quantum case it is stressed how the symmetries give the degeneracy of each energy level. In the classical case it is shown how the constants of motion supply the orbits, the motion and the frequencies in a natural way.

Polynomial symmetries of spherical Lissajous systems

In a previous work, both the constants of motion of a classical system and the symmetries of the corresponding quantum version have been computed with the help of factorizations. As their expressions were not polynomial, in this paper the question of finding an equivalent set of polynomial constants of motion and symmetries is addressed. The general algebraic relations as well as the appropriate Hermitian relations will also be found.

Intertwining symmetry algebras of quantum superintegrable systems on the hyperboloid

A class of quantum superintegrable Hamiltonians defined on a two-dimensional hyperboloid is considered together with a set of intertwining operators connecting them. It is shown that such intertwining operators close a su(2,1) Lie algebra and determine the Hamiltonians through the Casimir operators. By means of discrete symmetries a broader set of operators is obtained closing a so(4,2) algebra. The physical states corresponding to the discrete spectrum of bound states as well as the degeneration are characterized in terms of unitary representations of su(2,1) and so(4,2).

Superintegrable quantum u(3)--systems and higher rank factorizations

A class of two-dimensional superintegrable systems on a constant curvature surface is considered as the natural generalization of some well known one-dimensional factorized systems. By using standard methods to find the shape-invariant intertwining operators we arrive at a $so(6)$ dynamical algebra and its Hamiltonian hierarchies. We pay attention to those associated to certain unitary irreducible representations that can be displayed by means of three-dimensional polyhedral lattices. We also discuss the role of superpotentials in this new context.

Dynamical symmetries for superintegrable quantum systems

We study the dynamical symmetries of a class of two-dimensional superintegrable systems on a 2-sphere, obtained by a procedure based on the Marsden-Weinstein reduction, by considering its shape-invariant intertwining operators. These are obtained by generalizing the techniques of factorization of one-dimensional systems. We firstly obtain a pair of noncommuting Lie algebras $su(2)$ that originate the algebra $so(4)$. By considering three spherical coordinate systems we get the algebra $u(3)$ that can be enlarged by `reflexions' to $so(6)$. The bounded eigenstates of the Hamiltonian hierarchies are associated to the irreducible unitary representations of these dynamical algebras.

Pseudo-orthogonal groups and integrable dynamical systems in two dimensions

Integrable systems in low dimensions, constructed through the symmetry reduction method, are studied using phase portrait and variable separation techniques. In particular, invariant quantities and explicit periodic solutions are determined. Widely applied models in Physics are shown to appear as particular cases of the method.
