Feynman checkers: lattice quantum field theory with real time
Analysis and Mathematical Physics. 2024. Vol. 14. Article 38.
We present a new completely elementary model that describes the creation, annihilation, and motion of non-interacting electrons and positrons along a line. It is a modification of the model known under the names
Feynman checkers or one-dimensional quantum walk. It can be viewed as a six-vertex model with certain complex weights of the vertices. The discrete model is consistent with the continuum quantum field theory, namely, reproduces the known expected charge density as the lattice step tends to zero. It is exactly solvable in terms of hypergeometric functions. We introduce interaction resembling Fermi's theory and establish perturbation expansion.

We provide examples of smooth three-dimensional Fano complete intersections of degree 2, 4, 6, and 8 that have absolute coregularity 0. Considering the main theorem of Avilov, Loginov, and Przyjalkowski (CNTP 18:506–577, 2024) on the remaining 101 families of smooth Fano threefolds, our result implies that each family of smooth Fano threefolds has an element of absolute ...

Chiral semiconductor nanostructures and nanoparticles are promising materials for applications in biological sensing, enantioselective separation, photonics, and spin-polarized devices. Here we performed a detailed analysis of optical properties of chiral CdSe nanoplatelets with thickness of 2 and 3 monolayers (ML) with Nacetyl-L-cysteine ligands. We studied the absorption spectra peculiarities, analyzed time-resolved photoluminescence and investigated circular ...

This work presents a comprehensive investigation into the temperature-dependent thermally stimulated conductivity and photoconductivity of vacuum-annealed thin films based on core–shell CdSe/CdS nanoplatelets passivated with oleic acid ligands. Controlled thermal annealing under vacuum conditions leads to a substantial increase in both dark and photoinduced conductivity, which is primarily attributed to partial desorption of the ligands. ...

Исследованы инжекционные полупроводниковые микролазеры с кольцевым резонатором радиусом 15 мкм с несимметричным расположением внутреннего отверстия резонатора. Показано, что асимметрия обеспечивает формирование в диаграмме направленности двух лепестков излучения, разориентированных на 50° относительно оси смещения внутреннего отверстия. Измеренная добротность резонаторов сопоставима с добротностью дисковых резонаторов и находится на уровне ∼ 10^6. ...

We demonstrate and rationalize the effect of Au nanoparticles (NPs) on the hierarchical g-C3N4/CeO2 heterojunction. g-C3N4/CeO2 decorated with monodispersed plasmonic Au NPs was synthesized. Detailed analyses showed that CeO2 nanocubes and monodispersed Au NPs were evenly distributed over the 2D g-C3N4 surface, forming a robust interface enriched with abundant active sites. The structure enabled efficient separation of photogenerated charge ...

Niobium-doped TiO2 (Nb-TiO2), demonstrates dual functionality as an efficient photocatalyst for dye degradation and a promising photoelectrocatalyst for water oxidation. Nb incorporation via a facile hydrothermal method was confirmed by XRD (Rietveld refinement), XPS, TEM, FT-IR, Raman, and BET analyses, indicating successful lattice doping and structural modification. Photocatalytic dye degradation experiments were conducted using a model ...

We show that bifurcations of four-dimensional symplectic diffeomorphisms with a quadratic homoclinic tangency to a saddle periodic orbit with real multipliers produce 2-elliptic periodic orbits if the tangency is not partially hyperbolic. We show that a normal form for the rescaled first-return maps near such tangency is given by a four-dimensional symplectic H´enonlike map and study bifurcations of the ...

The book contains new models of bibliometric analysis based on centrality measures in network analysis, pattern analysis and stability analysis. A distinctive feature of these centrality measures is that they account for the parameters of vertices and group influence of vertices to a vertex. This reveals specific groups of publications, authors, terms, journals and affiliations ...

We develop a machine-learning approach to reproduce the behavior of two versions of the van der Pol oscillator exhibiting a subcritical Andronov–Hopf bifurcation, with or without a codimension-2 Bautin point. We construct a neural-network model that functions as a recur rent map and train it on short segments of oscillator trajectories. The results show that, ...

We theoretically investigate the correlation functions of the phase of a light wave propagating through a
turbulent medium. We use an equation for the logarithm of a wave packet envelope, which includes a secondorder
nonlinear term. Based on this equation, we develop a diagrammatic technique to calculate corrections
to the correlation function obtained in the linear approximation. We ...

In this paper the structural stability of generic families of vector fields of the PC-HC class on the two-dimensional sphere is proved. A classification of these families up to moderate equivalence in neighborhoods of their large bifurcation supports is presented, based on such invariants as the configuration and the characteristic set. The realization lemma is proved. ...

Heterostructures based on ZnO nanorods and CsPbBr3 nanocrystals were investigated for their potential as semiconductor SERS substrates. We found that ZnO morphology governs the efficiency of interfacial energy transfer, leading to enhanced photoluminescence under 390 nm excitation and a noticeable reduction of the bandgap in the composites. Raman analysis revealed a pronounced intensity enhancement and ...

It is known that for every continuous real-valued
function $f$ on the circle $\mathbb T=\mathbb R/2\pi\mathbb Z$ there exists a
change of variable, i.e., a self-homeomorphism $h$ of $\mathbb T$, such that
the superposition $f\circ h$ is in the Sobolev space $W_2^{1/2}(\mathbb T)$.
We obtain new results on simultaneous improvement of functions by a single
change of variable in relation ...

This paper investigates the Lorentz invariance of the multidimensional Dirac–Hestenes equation, that is, whether the equation remains form-invariant under pseudo-orthogonal transformations of the coordinates. We examine two distinct approaches: the tensor formulation and the spinor formulation. We first present a detailed examination of the four-dimensional Dirac–Hestenes equation, comparing both transformation approaches. These results are subsequently ...

It is easier to investigate phenomena in particle physics geometrically by exploring a real solution to the Dirac-Hestenes equation instead of a complex solution to the Dirac equation. The present research outlines the multidimensional Dirac-Hestenes equation. Since the matrix representation of the complexified (Clifford) geometric algebra ℂ⊗Cℓ1,n depends on a parity of n, we explore even and odd ...
