Bulk and element specific magnetism of the medium and high entropy Cantor-Wu alloys

Magnetic Compton scattering, x-ray magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy and bulk magnetometry measurements are performed on a set of medium (NiFeCo and NiFeCoCr) and high (NiFeCoCrPd and NiFeCoCrMn) entropy Cantor-Wu alloys. The bulk spin momentum densities determined by magnetic Compton scattering are remarkably isotropic, and this is a consequence of the smearing of the electronic structure by disorder scattering of the electron quasiparticles. Non-zero x-ray magnetic circular dichroism signals are observed for every element in every alloy indicating differences in the populations of the majority and minority spin states implying finite magnetic moments. When Cr is included in the solid solution, the Cr spin moment is unambiguously antiparallel to the total magnetic moment, while a vanishingly small magnetic moment is observed for Mn, despite calculations indicating a large moment. Some significant discrepancies are observed between the experimental bulk and surface magnetic moments. Despite the lack of quantitative agreement, the element specific surface magnetic moments seem to be qualitatively reasonable.

Complementary Theories of Energy Gaps in HTSC

We examine experiments on energy gaps in high temperature superconductors (HTSC) in terms of experimental probes that utilize momentum, position, or neither. Experiments on very high quality mechanical tunnel junctions show a sharp energy gap with a maximum anisotropy of ~ 10%, while ultrahigh precision ARPES experiments show 100% anisotropy (d-wave pairing). We resolve this conbflict by showing that the latter result is caused by the momentum-projective nature of ARPES and glassy orthorhombic dopant correlations. The latter appear to be a universal feature of the intermediate phase tha is responsible for HTSC. Apparent large inconsistencies between position-projective STM gap data and tunnel junction data on severely underdoped BSCCO are also resolved.

Phase Structure of Four-dimensional Simplicial Quantum Gravity with a U(1) Gauge Field

The phase structure of four-dimensional simplicial quantum gravity coupled to U(1) gauge fields has been studied using Monte-Carlo simulations. The smooth phase is found in the intermediate region between the crumpled phase and the branched polymer phase. This new phase has a negative string susceptibility exponent, even if the number of vector fields (Nv) is 1. The phase transition between the crumpled phase and the smooth phase has been studied by a finite size scaling method. From the numerical results, we expect that this model (coupled to one gauge field) has a higher order phase transition than first order, which means the possibility to take the continuum limit at the critical point. Furthermore, we consider a modification of the balls-in-boxes model for a clear understanding of the relation between the numerical results and the analytical one.

Phase Transition of 4D Simplicial Quantum Gravity with U(1) Gauge Field

The phase transition of 4D simplicial quantum gravity coupled to U(1) gauge fields is studied using Monte-Carlo simulations. The phase transition of the dynamical triangulation model with vector field ($N_{V}=1$) is smooth as compared with the pure gravity($N_{V}=0$). The node susceptibility ($χ$) is studied in the finite size scaling method. At the critical point, the node distribution has a sharp peak in contrast to the double peak in the pure gravity. From the numerical results, we expect that 4D simplicial quantum gravity with U(1) vector fields has higher order phase transition than 1st order, which means the possibility to take the continuum limit at the critical point.

Further Evidence of a Smooth Phase in 4D Simplicial Quantum Gravity

Four-dimensional (4D) simplicial quantum gravity coupled to U(1) gauge fields has been studied using Monte-Carlo simulations. A negative string susceptibility exponent is observed beyond the phase-transition point, even if the number of vector fields (NV) is 1. We find a scaling relation of the boundary volume distributions in this new phase. This scaling relation suggests a fractal structure similar to that of 2D quantum gravity. Furthermore, evidence of a branched polymer-like structure is suggested far into the weak-coupling region, even for NV > 1. As a result, we propose new phase structures and discuss the possibility of taking the continuum limit in a certain region between the crumpled and branched polymer phases.

Common Structures in Simplicial Quantum Gravity

The statistical properties of dynamically triangulated manifolds (DT mfds) in terms of the geodesic distance have been studied numerically. The string susceptibility exponents for the boundary surfaces in three-dimensional DT mfds were measured numerically. For spherical boundary surfaces, we obtained a result consistent with the case of a two-dimensional spherical DT surface described by the matrix model. This gives a correct method to reconstruct two-dimensional random surfaces from three-dimensional DT mfds. Furthermore, a scaling property of the volume distribution of minimum neck baby universes was investigated numerically in the case of three and four dimensions, and we obtain a common scaling structure near to the critical points belonging to the strong coupling phase in both dimensions. We have evidence for the existence of a common fractal structure in three- and four-dimensional simplicial quantum gravity.

Random Surfaces in Three-Dimensional Simplicial Gravity

A model of simplicial quantum gravity in three dimensions is investigated numerically based on the technique of the dynamical triangulation (DT). We are concerned with the surfaces appearing on boundaries (i.e., sections) of three-dimensional DT manifold with $S^{3}$ topology. A new scaling behavior of genus distributions of boundary surfaces is found.Furthermore, these surfaces are compared with the random surfaces generated by the two-dimensional DT method which are well known as a correct discretized method of the two-dimensional quantum gravity.

Spontaneous Decoherence in Coupled Quantum Kicked Rotators

Quantum mechanical behavior of coupled N-kicked rotators is studied. In the large N limit each rotator evolves under influence of the mean-field generated by surrounding rotators. It is found that the system spontaneously generates classical chaos in the large N limit when the system parameter exceeds a critical value. Numerical simulation of a quantum rotator coupled to a classical rotator supports this idea.

Topology of Boundary Surfaces in 3D Simplicial Gravity

A model of simplicial quantum gravity in three dimensions(3D) was investigated numerically based on the technique of dynamical triangulation (DT). We are concerned with the genus of surfaces appearing on boundaries (i.e., sections) of a 3D DT manifold with $S^{3}$ topology. Evidence of a scaling behavior of the genus distributions of boundary surfaces has been found.

Common Structures in 2,3 and 4D Simplicial Quantum Gravity

Two kinds of statistical properties of dynamical-triangulated manifolds (DT mfds) have been investigated. First, the surfaces appearing on the boundaries of 3D DT mfds were investigated. The string-susceptibility exponent of the boundary surfaces ($\tildeγ_{st}$) of 3D DT mfds with $S^{3}$ topology near to the critical point was obtained by means of a MINBU (minimum neck baby universes) analysis; actually, we obtained $\tildeγ_{st} \approx -0.5$. Second, 3 and 4D DT mfds were also investigated by determining the string-susceptibility exponent near to the critical point from measuring the MINBU distributions. As a result, we found a similar behavior of the MINBU distributions in 3 and 4D DT mfds, and obtained $γ_{st}^{(3)} \approx γ_{st}^{(4)} \approx 0$. The existence of common structures in simplicial quantum gravity is also discussed.

Grand-canonical simulation of two-dimensional simplicial gravity

The string susceptibility exponents of dynamically triangulated 2-dimensional surfaces with various topologies, such as a sphere, torus and double-torus, were calculated by the grand-canonical Monte Carlo method. These simulations were made for surfaces coupled to $d$-Ising spins ($d$=0,1,2,3,5). In each simulation the area of surface was constrained to within 1000 to 3000 of triangles, while maintaining the detailed-balance condition. The numerical results show excellent agreement with theoretical predictions as long as $d \leq 2$.

Scaling Behavior in 4D Simplicial Quantum Gravity

Scaling relations in four-dimensional simplicial quantum gravity are proposed using the concept of the geodesic distance. Based on the analogy of a loop length distribution in the two-dimensional case, the scaling relations of the boundary volume distribution in four dimensions are discussed in three regions: the strong-coupling phase, the critical point and the weak-coupling phase. In each phase a different scaling behavior is found.

Scaling Structures in Four-dimensional Simplicial Gravity

Four-dimensional(4D) spacetime structures are investigated using the concept of the geodesic distance in the simplicial quantum gravity. On the analogy of the loop length distribution in 2D case, the scaling relations of the boundary volume distribution in 4D are discussed in various coupling regions i.e. strong-coupling phase, critical point and weak-coupling phase. In each phase the different scaling relations are found.

Complex structure of a DT surface with $T^2$ topology

A method of defining the complex structure(moduli) for dynamically triangulated(DT) surfaces with torus topology is proposed. Distribution of the moduli parameter is measured numerically and compared with the Liouville theory for the surface coupled to c = 0, 1 and 2 matter. Equivalence between the dynamical triangulation and the Liouville theory is established in terms of the complex structure.

Strings in Computer

Complex structures are determined for surfaces with $S^2$ and $T^2$ topologies generated by the dynamical triangulation method. For a surface with $S^2$ topology the spacial distribution of the conformal mode is obtained, while for the case of $T^2$ topology the distribution of the moduli parameter is calculated. It is also shown that the network of Feynman diagrams of massive $ϕ^3$ scalar theory has a unique complex structure. This gives a numerical justification of the hadronic string model for explaining the n-particle dual amplitude.

2D Quantum Gravity -Three States of Surfaces-

Two-dimensional random surfaces are studied numerically by the dynamical triangulation method. In order to generate various kinds of random surfaces, two higher derivative terms are added to the action. The phases of surfaces in the two-dimensional parameter space are classified into three states: flat, crumpled surface, and branched polymer. In addition, there exists a special point (pure gravity) corresponding to the universal fractal surface. A new probe to detect branched polymers is proposed, which makes use of the minbu(minimum neck baby universe) analysis. This method can clearly distinguish the branched polymer phase from another according to the sizes and arrangements of baby universes. The size distribution of baby universes changes drastically at the transition point between the branched polymer and other kind of surface. The phases of surfaces coupled with multi-Ising spins are studied in a similar manner.

The Complex Structure of 2D Surfaces

The complex structure of a surface generated by the two-dimensional dynamical triangulation(DT) is determined by measuring the resistivity of the surface. It is found that surfaces coupled to matter fields have well-defined complex structures for cases when the matter central charges are less than or equal to one, while they become unstable beyond c=1. A natural conjecture that fine planar random network of resistors behave as a continuous sheet of constant resistivity is justified numerically for c<1.
