We study motion of a charged particle confined to Dirichlet layer of a fixed width placed into a homogeneous magnetic field. If the layer is planar and the field is perpendicular to it the spectrum consists of infinitely degenerate…
Some relevant transport properties of solids do not depend only on the spectrum of the electronic Hamiltonian, but on finer properties preserved only by unitary equivalence, the most striking example being the conductance. When interested…
We investigate the inverse problem of retrieving the magnetic potential of an Iwatsuka Hamiltonian by knowledge of the second component of the quantum velocity. We show that knowledge of the quantum currents carried by a suitable set of…
We study the quantum mechanical motion of a charged particle moving in a half plane (x>0) subject to a uniform constant magnetic field B directed along the z-axis and to an arbitrary impurity potential W_B, assumed to be weak in the sense…
Standandard Hamiltonian mechanics in its homogeneous formulation is applied to the study of discontinuities representing rapid changes of Hamiltonians. Different formulations of Hamiltonian mechanics are reviewed. An original representation…
The magnetic field opens a gap in the edge state spectrum of two-dimensional topological insulators thereby destroying protection of these states against backscattering. To relate properties of this gap to parameters of the system and to…
We construct a Hamiltonian whose dynamics simulate the dynamics of every other Hamiltonian up to exponentially long times in the system size. The Hamiltonian is time-independent, local, one-dimensional, and translation invariant. As a…
We consider the hydrogen molecular ion $H^+_2$ in the presence of a strong homogeneous magnetic field. In this regime, the effective Hamiltonian is almost one dimensional with a potential energy which looks like a sum of two Dirac delta…
We consider a simple model describing a closed bosonic string in a constant magnetic field. Exact conformal invariance demands also the presence of a non-trivial metric and antisymmetric tensor (induced by the magnetic field). The model is…
Following systematically the generalized Hamiltonian approach of Batalin, Fradkin and Tyutin (BFT), we embed the second-class non-abelian SU(2) Higgs model in the unitary gauge into a gauge invariant theory. The strongly involutive…
In this work we study the so-called ModMax nonlinear electrodynamics, which is a novel model designed to preserve duality rotations and conformal transformations, such as the Maxwell's equations do. This model allows to study diverse…
Consider $\Gamma$, a non-degenerate lattice in $\R^2$ and a constant magnetic field $B$ with a flux though a cell of $\Gamma$ that is a rational multiple of $2\pi$. We prove that for a generic $\Gamma$-periodic potential $V$, the spectrum…
Two field 2-forms on the space-time manifold, in a relationship of duality, are presented and included in the extended phase-space structure used to describe relativistic particles having both electric and magnetic charges. By exterior…
For linear bose field theories, I show that if a classical Hamiltonian function is strictly positive, then there is a canonical transformation making the evolution orthogonal. This structure theorem is used to analyze the corresponding…
Two coupled two-level systems placed under external time-dependent magnetic fields are modeled by a general Hamiltonian endowed with a symmetry that enables us to reduce the total dynamics into two independent two-dimensional sub-dynamics.…
This contribution summarizes the main results of a work on exactly solvable Hamiltonians for quantum magnets. A class of Hamiltonians which supports fractionalized spinless fermionic excitations in dimensions greater than one is written…
We consider classical and quantum mechanics for an extended Heisenberg algebra with additional canonical commutation relations for position and momentum coordinates. In our approach this additional noncommutativity is removed from the…
Recent work has characterised rigorously what it means for one quantum system to simulate another, and demonstrated the existence of universal Hamiltonians -- simple spin lattice Hamiltonians that can replicate the entire physics of any…
We prove the integrability and superintegrability of a family of natural Hamiltonians which includes and generalises those studied in some literature, originally defined on the 2D Minkowski space. Some of the new Hamiltonians are a perfect…
The magnetic translation algebra plays an important role in the quantum Hall effect. Murthy and Shankar, arXiv:1207.2133, have shown how to realize this algebra using fermionic bilinears defined on a two-dimensional square lattice. We show…
