On strong orthogonality and strictly convex normed linear spaces

We introduce the notion of strongly orthogonal set relative to an element in the sense of Birkhoff-James in a normed linear space to find a necessary and sufficient condition for an element $ x $ of the unit sphere $ S_{X}$ to be an exposed point of the unit ball $ B_X .$ We then prove that a normed linear space is strictly convex iff for each element x of the unit sphere there exists a bounded linear operator A on X which attains its norm only at the points of the form $ λx $ with $ λ\in S_{K} $.

Nuclear forces and nuclear excited states

In this work, the role of the central, spin-force and tensor forces of two-nucleon interaction in building the first 2$^+$ and 4$^+$ states of 20 sd-shell nuclei is studied. Calculations are performed within the framework of the nuclear shell model. It is shown that the central force predominantly contributes to the excitation energy. While the spin-orbit and tensor forces contribute relatively less, their roles are noted crucial in a few cases, such as in $^{22}$O. Further, it is demonstrated that the Hamiltonian projection approach should be preferred for rightly assessing the contributions of each force to the excitation energy.

Effect of tensor force on lowering of 5/2$^{-}$ level in heavier Cu isotopes

The inversion of 3/2$^{-}$ and 5/2$^{-}$ levels in heavier Cu isotopes is one of the most visible example of shell-evolution, caused by the strong monopole attraction between the nucleons occupying the orbitals $π0f_{5/2}$ and $ν0g_{9/2}$. The tensor part of the nucleon-nucleon interaction is expected to be the driving force behind this monopole migration. In shell model framework, usually spin-tensor decomposition is used to get the information of individual force components to the shell evolution, however, in the present scenario, this method can not apply on \textit{pfg} model space due to the missing spin-orbit partners $ 0f_{7/2}$ and $ 0g_{7/2}$. Therefore, we have analytically obtained the tensor force two-body matrix elements (TBMEs) for this model space using Yukawa potential, and subtract it from effective interaction jj44b \cite{}. The interaction without tensor part, named as jj44a, have been used for calculation of Ni, Zn, Ge and Cu isotopes with various physics viewpoints. In most of the cases, the theoretical results are in good agreement with the experiment only when tensor force is included to the interaction jj44a.

Modification of tensor force in \textit{p}-shell effective interaction

In many shell model interactions, the tensor force monopole matrix elements often retain systematic trends originating in the bare tensor force. However, in the present work, we find that Isospin T = 0 tensor force monopole matrix elements of \textit{p}-shell effective interaction CK(8-16) do not share these systematic. We correct these discrepancies by modifying T = 0 tensor force two-body matrix elements (TBMEs) of CK(8-16) by the analytically calculated tensor force TBMEs. With some additional modification of single-particle energies and TBMEs, the revised effective interaction is named as CKN. The effective interaction CKN has been tested for the calculations of \textit{p}-shell nuclei of normal parity states from various physics viewpoints such as excitation spectra, electromagnetic moments, and electromagnetic and \textit{G}amow-\textit{T}eller (\textit{GT}) transitions. The obtained results are found to be satisfactory.

A way forward towards improvement of tensor force in \textit{pf}-shell

In many shell model interactions, the tensor force monopole matrix elements often retain systematic trends originating in the bare tensor force. In this work, however, we note for GX-interactions of \textit{pf}-shell that the seven out of ten T = 1 tensor force monopole matrix elements do not share these systematic. We ameliorate this disparity making use of Yukawa-type tensor force and spin-tensor decomposition. Furthermore, we modify the single-particle energy of $1p_{3/2}$ orbit and two TBMEs of $0f$-orbit,and test the revised interaction from Ca to Ge isotopes with various physics viewpoints. The results are found to be satisfactory with respect to the experimental data.

Role of individual components of two-nucleon interaction in nuclear matrix elements of $2νββ$ and $0νββ$ of $^\textbf{48}$Ca: Beyond the closure approximation

In the present work, we examine the role of central (C), spin-orbit (SO) and tensor (T) components of two-nucleon interaction in the nuclear matrix elements (NMEs) of the two-neutrino double beta decay ($2νββ$) and the light neutrino-exchange mechanism of neutrinoless double beta decay ($0νββ$) of $^{48}$Ca in closure approximation and nonclosure approach. The NMEs are calculated in the nuclear shell-model framework using two-nucleon effective interaction GXPF1A used for $pf$ shell. The decomposition of the shell model two-nucleon interaction into its individual components is performed using the spin-tensor decomposition (STD). The NMEs for $2νββ$ are calculated in running nonclosure method. The NMEs for $0νββ$ are calculated with four different methods, namely, closure, running closure, running nonclosure, and mixed method. Results show that the magnitude of NMEs for $2νββ$ decreases about 7\% with the C+SO component of the interaction as compared to the C component. The magnitude of NMEs is further decreased about 9\% by adding T component to the C+SO component. The NMEs of $0νββ$ calculated in running nonclosure method are enhanced by about 8-10\%, 8-10\%, and 9-12\%, respectively, as compared to corresponding NMEs calculated in running closure method with C, C+SO components and total (C+SO+T) GXPF1A interaction for different SRC parametrization. For both $2νββ$ and $0νββ$, the NMEs calculated with C+SO component is in opposite phase with the NMEs calculated with C component and the total GXPF1A interaction.

Strictly convex space : Strong orthogonality and Conjugate diameters

In a normed linear space X an element x is said to be orthogonal to another element y in the sense of Birkhoff-James, written as $ x \perp_{B}y, $ iff $ \| x \| \leq \| x + λy \| $ for all scalars $ λ.$ We prove that a normed linear space X is strictly convex iff for any two elements x, y of the unit sphere $ S_X$, $ x \perp_{B}y $ implies $ \| x + λy \| > 1~ \forall~ λ\neq 0. $ We apply this result to find a necessary and sufficient condition for a Hamel basis to be a strongly orthonormal Hamel basis in the sense of Birkhoff-James in a finite dimensional real strictly convex space X. Applying the result we give an estimation for lower bounds of $ \| tx+(1-t)y\|, t \in [0,1] $ and $ \| y + λx \|, ~\forall ~λ$ for all elements $ x,y \in S_X $ with $ x \perp_B y. $ We find a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of conjugate diameters through the points $ e_1,e_2 \in ~S_X $ in a real strictly convex space of dimension 2. The concept of generalized conjuagte diameters is then developed for a real strictly convex smooth space of finite dimension.
