Class of solvable reaction-diffusion processes on Cayley tree

Considering the most general one-species reaction-diffusion processes on a Cayley tree, it has been shown that there exist two integrable models. In the first model, the reactions are the various creation processes, i.e. $\circ\circ\to\bullet\circ$, $\circ\circ\to\bullet\bullet$ and $\circ\bullet\to\bullet\bullet$, and in the second model, only the diffusion process $\bullet\circ\to\circ\bullet$ exists. For the first model, the probabilities $P_l(m;t)$, of finding $m$ particles on $l$-th shell of Cayley tree, have been found exactly, and for the second model, the functions $P_l(1;t)$ have been calculated. It has been shown that these are the only integrable models, if one restricts himself to $L+1$-shell probabilities $P(m_0,m_1,...,m_L;t)$s.

Quantum attractors of generalized Gauss-Bonnet dark energy

The influences of quantum effects on the structure of the phase-space of generalized Gauss-Bonnet theory, introduced by the Lagrangian F(R,G), have been studied. G is the Gauss-Bonnet invariant, and the quantum effects are described via the account of conformal anomaly. It has been shown that the quantum effects change many aspects of the attractors of F(R,G) gravity models in the R-H plane, including the location of the attractors, the number of them and their stability properties. These variations are not, in general, from the type of small perturbations, but instead, it can induce the great, so not ignorable, variations which have root in the "singular perturbation" nature of this effect. In other words, one can not ignore the quantum corrections and must be always considered. The influences of the perfect barotropic fluids on this problem have been studied, and it has been shown that this kind of matters do not alter the quantum effects. It has been shown that the classical contribution of the coupled-quintessence model, which is responsible for inducing the quantum effects, is of this type, that is a perfect barotropic fluid, and therefore can not change our results.

Remarks on generalized scalar-tensor models of dark energy

The generalized scalar-tensor models with Lagrangian $F(ϕ,R)-U(ϕ)(\nablaϕ)^2$ are considered. It is shown that the phantom-divide-line crossing and the deceleration to acceleration transition generally occurr in these models. Two specific examples, the coupled quintessence model and the Brans-Dicke model are considered. For the first example, it is shown that for the models with $ξ>3/16$, the $ω=-1$ transition exists. This is verified numerically for some special cases. For the Brans-Dicke model, it is shown that the transition does not occur, a result which can be verified by using the exact solution of this model. Finally the contribution of quantum effects on these phenomena is investigated. It is shown that for some special cases where the $ω=-1$ transition is classically forbidden, the quantum effects can induce transition. The $ξ=1/6$ of coupled quintessence model is an example of this. The quantum effects are described via the account of conformal anomaly.

The phase-space of generalized Gauss-Bonnet dark energy

The generalized Gauss-Bonnet theory, introduced by Lagrangian F(R,G), has been considered as a general modified gravity for explanation of the dark energy. G is the Gauss-Bonnet invariant. For this model, we seek the situations under which the late-time behavior of the theory is the de-Sitter space-time. This is done by studying the two dimensional phase space of this theory, i.e. the R-H plane. By obtaining the conditions under which the de-Sitter space-time is the stable attractor of this theory, several aspects of this problem have been investigated. It has been shown that there exist at least two classes of stable attractors : the singularities of the F(R,G), and the cases in which the model has a critical curve, instead of critical points. This curve is R=12H^2 in R-H plane. Several examples, including their numerical calculations, have been discussed.

Remarks on generalized Gauss-Bonnet dark energy

The modified gravity with F(R,G) Lagrangian, G is the Gauss-Bonnet invariant, is considered. It is shown that the phantom-divide-line crossing and the deceleration to acceleration transition generally occur in these models. Our results coincide with the known results of f(R)-gravity and f(G)-gravity models. The contribution of quantum effects to these transitions is calculated, and it is shown that in some special cases where there are no transitions in classical level, quantum contributions can induce transitions. The quantum effects are described via the account of conformal anomaly.

Quantum induced w = -1 crossing of the quintessence and phantom models

Considering the single scalar field models of dark energy, i.e. the quintessence and phantom models, it is shown that the quantum effects can cause the system crosses the w = -1 line. This phenomenon does not occur in classical level. The quantum effects are described via the account of conformal anomaly.

Klein-Gordon and Dirac particles in non-constant scalar-curvature background

The Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations are considered in a semi-infinite lab ($x > 0$) in the presence of background metrics $ds^2 =u^2(x) η_{μν} dx^μdx^ν$ and $ds^2=-dt^2+u^2(x)η_{ij}dx^i dx^j$ with $u(x)=e^{\pm gx}$. These metrics have non-constant scalar-curvatures. Various aspects of the solutions are studied. For the first metric with $u(x)=e^{gx}$, it is shown that the spectrums are discrete, with the ground state energy $E^2_{min}=p^2c^2 + g^2c^2\hbar^2$ for spin-0 particles. For $u(x)=e^{-gx}$, the spectrums are found to be continuous. For the second metric with $u(x)=e^{-gx}$, each particle, depends on its transverse-momentum, can have continuous or discrete spectrum. For Klein-Gordon particles, this threshold transverse-momentum is $\sqrt{3}g/2$, while for Dirac particles it is $g/2$. There is no solution for $u(x)=e^{gx}$ case. Some geometrical properties of these metrics are also discussed.

The w = -1 crossing of the quintom model with slowly-varying potentials

Considering the quintom model with arbitrary potential, it is shown that there always exists a solution which evolves from w > -1 region to w < -1 region. The problem is restricted to the slowly varying potentials, i.e. the slow-roll approximation. It is seen that the rate of this phase transition only depends on the energy density of matter at transition time, which itself is equal to the kinetic part of quintom energy density at that time. The perturbative solutions of the fields are also obtained.

Non-Douglas-Kazakov phase transition of two-dimensional generalized Yang-Mills theories

In two-dimensional Yang-Mills and generalized Yang-Mills theories for large gauge groups, there is a dominant representation determining the thermodynamic limit of the system. This representation is characterized by a density the value of which should everywhere be between zero and one. This density itself is determined through a saddle-point analysis. For some values of the parameter space, this density exceeds one in some places. So one should modify it to obtain an acceptable density. This leads to the well-known Douglas-Kazakov phase transition. In generalized Yang-Mills theories, there are also regions in the parameter space where somewhere this density becomes negative. Here too, one should modify the density so that it remains nonnegative. This leads to another phase transition, different from the Douglas-Kazakov one. Here the general structure of this phase transition is studied, and it is shown that the order of this transition is typically three. Using carefully-chosen parameters, however, it is possible to construct models with phase-transition orders not equal to three. A class of these non-typical models are also studied.

Cosmological coincidence problem in interacting dark energy models

An interacting dark energy model with interaction term $Q= λ_m Hρ_m+λ_dHρ_d$ is considered. By studying the model near the transition time, in which the system crosses the w=-1 phantom-divide-line, the conditions needed to overcome the coincidence problem is investigated. The phantom model, as a candidate for dark energy, is considered and for two specific examples, the quadratic and exponential phantom potentials, it is shown that it is possible the system crosses the w=-1 line, meanwhile the coincidence problem is alleviated, the two facts that have root in observations.

Transition from quintessence to phantom phase in quintom model

Assuming the Hubble parameter is a continuous and differentiable function of comoving time, we investigate necessary conditions for quintessence to phantom phase transition in quintom model. For power-law and exponential potential examples, we study the behavior of dynamical dark energy fields and Hubble parameter near the transition time, and show that the phantom-divide-line w=-1 is crossed in these models.

Attractor solutions for general hessence dark energy

As a candidate for the dark energy, the hessence model has been recently introduced. We discuss the critical points of this model in almost general case, that is for arbitrary hessence potential and almost arbitrary hessence-background matter interaction. It is shown that in all models, there always exist some stable late-time attractors. It is shown that our general results coincide with those solutions obtained earlier for special cases, but some of them are new. These new solutions have two unique characteristics. First the hessence field has finite value in these solutions and second, their stabilities depend on the second derivative of the hessence potential.

Phase transitions of Large-N two-dimensional Yang-Mills and generalized Yang-Mills theories in the double scaling limit

The large-N behavior of Yang-Mills and generalized Yang-Mills theories in the double-scaling limit is investigated. By the double-scaling limit, it is meant that the area of the manifold on which the theory is defined, is itself a function of N. It is shown that phase transitions of different orders occur, depending on the functional dependence of the area on N. The finite-size scalings of the system are also investigated. Specifically, the dependence of the dominant representation on A, for large but finite N is determined.

Solvable reaction-diffusion processes without exclusion

For reaction-diffusion processes without exclusion, in which the particles can exist in the same site of a one-dimensional lattice, we study all the integrable models which can be obtained by imposing a boundary condition on the master equation of the asymmetric diffusion process. The annihilation process is also added. The Bethe ansatz solution and the exact N-particle conditional probabilities are obtained.

Large-N behavior of the Wilson loops of generalized two-dimensional Yang-Mills theories

The large-N limit of the expectation values of the Wilson loops corresponding to two-dimensional U(N) Yang-Mills and generalized Yang-Mills theories on a sphere are studied. The behavior of the expectation values of the Wilson loops both near the critical area and for large areas are investigated. It is shown that the expectation values of the Wilson loops at large areas behave exponentially with respect to the area of the smaller region the boundary of which is the loop; and for the so called typical theories, the expectation values of the Wilson loops exhibit a discontinuity in their second derivative (with respect to the area) at the critical area.

Electrostatic self-energy and Bekenstein entropy bound in the massive Schwinger model

We obtain the electrostatic energy of two opposite charges near the horizon of stationary black-holes in the massive Schwinger model. Besides the confining aspects of the model, we discuss the Bekenstein entropy upper bound of a charged object using the generalized second law. We show that despite the massless case, in the massive Schwinger model the entropy of the black hole and consequently the Bekenstein bound are altered by the vacuum polarization.

Multi-species extension of the solvable partially asymmetric reaction- diffusion processes

By considering the master equation of the partially asymmetric diffusion process on a one-dimensional lattice, the most general boundary condition (i.e. interactions) for the multi-species reaction-diffusion processes is considered. Resulting system has various interactions including diffusion to left and right, two-particle interactions $A_a A_b --> A_c A_d $ and the extended n-particle drop-push interactions to left and right. We obtain three distinct new models. The conditions on reaction rates to ensure the solvability of the resulting models are obtained. The two-particle conditional probabilities are calculated exactly.

Large-N limit of the two-dimensoinal Yang-Mills theory on surfaces with boundaries

The large-N limit of the two-dimensional U$(N)$ Yang-Mills theory on an arbitrary orientable compact surface with boundaries is studied. It is shown that if the holonomies of the gauge field on boundaries are near the identity, then the critical behavior of the system is the same as that of an orientable surface without boundaries with the same genus but with a modified area. The diffenece between this effective area and the real area of the surface is obtained and shown to be a function of the boundary conditions (holonomies) only. A similar result is shown to hold for the group SU$(N)$ and other simple groups.
