A hadronic vacuum polarization correction to the photon propagator is found by using the Dubnicka-Meshcheryakov parameterization of the pion electromagnetic form factor and new experimental data on the $e^+e^-$ hadrons annihilation cross section. Then, the contribution from the hadronic vacuum polarization to the muon anomalous magnetic moment and the Lamb shift in muonic atoms are calculated.
The adiabatic approximation is well-known method for effective study of few-body systems in molecular, atomic and nuclear physics, using the idea of separation of "fast" and "slow" variables. The generalization of the standard adiabatic ansatz for the case of multi-channel wave function when all variables treated dynamically is presented. For this reason we are introducing the step-by-step averaging methods in order to eliminate consequently from faster to slower variables. We present a symbolic-numerical algorithm for reduction of multistep adiabatic equations, corresponding to the MultiStep Generalization of Kantorovich Method, for solving multidimensional boundary-value problems by finite element method. An application of the algorithm to calculation of the ground and first exited states of a Helium atom is given.
A computation scheme for solving elliptic boundary value problems with axially symmetric confining potentials using different sets of one-parameter basis functions is presented. The efficiency of the proposed symbolic-numerical algorithms implemented in Maple is shown by examples of spheroidal quantum dot models, for which energy spectra and eigenfunctions versus the spheroid aspect ratio were calculated within the conventional effective mass approximation. Critical values of the aspect ratio, at which the discrete spectrum of models with finite-wall potentials is transformed into a continuous one in strong dimensional quantization regime, were revealed using the exact and adiabatic classifications.
In this paper we consider systems of partial (multidimensional) linear difference equations. Specifically, such systems arise in scientific computing under discretization of linear partial differential equations and in computational high energy physics as recurrence relations for multiloop Feynman integrals. The most universal algorithmic tool for investigation of linear difference systems is based on their transformation into an equivalent Groebner basis form. We present an algorithm for this transformation implemented in Maple. The algorithm and its implementation can be applied to automatic generation of difference schemes for linear partial differential equations and to reduction of Feynman integrals. Some illustrative examples are given.
We examine the mechanical matrix model that can be derived from the SU(2) Yang-Mills light-cone field theory by restricting the gauge fields to depend on the light-cone time alone. We use Dirac's generalized Hamiltonian approach. In contrast to its well-known instant-time counterpart the light-cone version of SU(2) Yang-Mills mechanics has in addition to the constraints, generating the SU(2) gauge transformations, the new first and second class constraints also. On account of all of these constraints a complete reduction in number of the degrees of freedom is performed. It is argued that the classical evolution of the unconstrained degrees of freedom is equivalent to a free one-dimensional particle dynamics. Considering the complex solutions to the second class constraints we show at this time that the unconstrained Hamiltonian system represents the well-known model of conformal mechanics with a ``strength'' of the inverse square interaction determined by the value of the gauge field spin.
We study the classical dynamics of mechanical model obtained from the light-cone version of SU(2) Yang-Mills field theory under the supposition of gauge potential dependence only on ``time'' along the light-cone direction. The computer algebra system Maple was used strongly to compute and separate the complete set of constraints. In contrast to the instant form of Yang-Mills mechanics the constraints here represent a mixed form of first and second-class constraints and reduce the number of the physical degrees of freedom up to four canonical one.
