Random phase approximation and its extension for the quantum O(2) anharmonic oscillator

We apply the random phase approximation (RPA) and its extension called renormalized RPA to the quantum anharmonic oscillator with an O(2) symmetry. We first obtain the equation for the RPA frequencies in the standard and in the renormalized RPA approximations using the equation of motion method. In the case where the ground state has a broken symmetry, we check the existence of a zero frequency in the standard and in the renormalized RPA approximations. Then we use a time-dependent approach where the standard RPA frequencies are obtained as small oscillations around the static solution in the time-dependent Hartree-Bogoliubov equation. We draw a parallel between the two approaches.

Single Boson Images Via an Extended Holstein Primakoff Mapping

The Holstein-Primakoff mapping for pairs of bosons is extended in order to accommodate single boson mapping. The proposed extension allows a variety of applications and especially puts the formalism at finite temperature on firm grounds. The new mapping is applied to the O(N+1) anharmonic oscillator with global symmetry broken down to O(N). It is explicitly demonstrated that N-Goldstone modes appear. This result generalizes the Holstein-Primakoff mapping for interacting boson as developed in ref.[1].

Symmetry Conserving Dynamical Mappings

Using the concept of dynamical mappings, two symmetry conserving nonperturbative approaches are presented. The first is based on the 1/N-expansion and sorted out using Holstein-Primakoff mapping. The second consists of dynamically mapping the canonical fields into the corresponding currents. It is argued, either by comparing the Fock spaces or the observables, that the latter constitutes a higher approach which transcends the 1/N-expansion and contains the dynamics generated by the Gaussian functional approach.
