Expansão perturbativa regularizada para o efeito Kondo / Regularized pertuebative expansion for the Kondo effectLima, Neemias Alves de 01 April 1998 (has links)
Nas últimas duas décadas a teoria dos sistemas eletrônicos correlacionados teve enorme progresso, que sustentou o paralelo desenvolvimento da pesquisa experimental dos sistemas de férmions pesados. Dada a complexidade do problema proposto pelas correlações fortes, diversas técnicas complementares de cálculo foram desenvolvidas no período. O presente plano se propõe a explorar uma extensão de uma das mais antigas, a técnica do grupo de renormalização numérico (GRN), tratando perturbativamente o modelo de Kondo para uma impureza magnética em um hospedeiro metálico. É bem conhecido que a expansão perturbativa de propriedades físicas, como a susceptibilidade, em termos do acoplamento de troca diverge logaritmicamente próxima da temperatura de Kondo. A abordagem do GRN para isto considera a transformação discreta, T[HN] = HN+1, onde {HN} é uma seqüência de Hamiltonianos. Neste trabalho, para regularizar a expansão da susceptibilidade, usamos um procedimento alternativo considerando a transformação contínua análoga, Tδz[HN(z)] = HN(z+δz), onde z é um parâmetro arbitrário que generaliza a discretização logarítmica do GRN. Ao contrário do procedimento de Wilson, nós esperamos que este novo procedimento possa ser mais facilmente aplicável a Hamiltonianos mais complexos, complementando a diagonalização numérica. / In the last two decades the theory of electronic correlated systems has had an enormous progress, which has sustained the parallel development of the experimental research in heavy fermion systems. Given the complexity imposed by the strong correlations, several techniques appeared. The present work explores an extension of one of the oldest, the Numerical Renormalization Group (NRG), treating perturbatively the Kondo model for a magnetic impurity in a metallic host. It is well known that perturbative expansion of physical properties, like susceptibility, in terms of the exchange coupling diverges logarithmically near the Kondo temperature. The NRG approach for this consider the discrete transformation, T[HN] = HN+1, where {HN}, is a sequence of Hamiltonians. In this work we use an alternative procedure to regularize the expansion, using an analogous continuum transformation Tδz[HN(z)] = HN(z+δz), where z is an arbitrary parameter which generalizes the NRG logarithmic discretization. Unlike Wilson\'s procedure, we hope this new one can be easily applicable to more complex Hamiltonians, complementing the numerical diagonalization.

Matrix Integrals : Calculating Matrix Integrals Using Feynman DiagramsFriberg, Adam January 2014 (has links)
In this project, we examine how integration over matrices is performed. We investigate and develop a method for calculating matrix integrals over the set of real square matrices. Matrix integrals are used for calculations in several different areas of physics and mathematics; for example quantum field theory, string theory, quantum chromodynamics, and random matrix theory. Our method consists of ways to apply perturbative Taylor expansions to the matrix integrals, reducing each term of the resulting Taylor series to a combinatorial problem using Wick's theorem, and representing the terms of the Wick sum graphically with the help of Feynman diagrams and fat graphs. We use the method in a few examples that aim to clearly demonstrate how to calculate the matrix integrals. / I detta projekt undersöker vi hur integration över matriser genomförs. Vi undersöker och utvecklar en metod för beräkning av matrisintegraler över mängden av alla reell-värda kvadratiska matriser. Matrisintegraler används för beräkningar i ett flertal olika områden inom fysik och matematik, till exempel kvantfältteori, strängteori, kvantkromodynamik och slumpmatristeori. Vår metod består av sätt att applicera perturbativa Taylorutvecklingar på matrisintegralerna, reducera varje term i den resulterande Taylorserien till ett kombinatoriellt problem med hjälp av Wicks sats, och att representera termerna i Wicksumman grafiskt med hjälp av Feynmandiagram. Vi använder metoden i några exempel som syftar till att klart demonstrera hur beräkningen av matrisintegraler går till.

Expansão perturbativa para fenômenos a tempos curtos / Perturbative expansion for short-time phenomenaSilva, Ramisés Martins da 27 October 2016 (has links)
Fenômenos que ocorrem a tempos curtos em sistemas quânticos abertos são caracterizados por possuírem um tempo característico de uma ordem muito menor que o tempo de relaxação do sistema. Como exemplos podemos citar o efeito de decoerência, que em resumo tenta explicar como a natureza quântica de um sistema é perdida ao longo da interação com o ambiente e o fenômeno de superradiância, onde estuda-se como alguns sistemas emitem um pulso energético muito rápido gerando um pico de intensidade fino localizado muito antes da relaxação do sistema. O objetivo desse trabalho é não só estudar esses fenômenos mas como apresentar uma técnica alternativa para a quantificação das medidas associadas e de seus tempos característicos. A técnica apresentada se baseia em fazer uma expansão perturbativa no tempo para o operador densidade a partir de uma equação mestra quântica e com seu uso calcular grandezas físicas relevantes a fenômenos que ocorrem a tempos curtos. A simplicidade da técnica e seu uso abrangente são os principais fatores motivadores deste trabalho. / Short-time phenomena in open quantum systems are characterized by having a characteristic time of a much lower order than the relaxation time of the system. As examples we can mention the effect of decoherence, which in summary tries to explain how the quantum nature of a system is lost along the interaction with the environment and the superradiance phenomenon, where is studied how some systems emit a very fast energy pulse generating a peak of fine intensity located long before the relaxation of the system. The aim of this work is not only study these phenomena but to present an alternative technique for quantifying the associated measures and their characteristic times. The presented technique is based on making a perturbative expansion in time for the density operator from a quantum master equation and use it to calculate physical quantities relevant to phenomena occurring at short times. The simplicity of the technique and its widespread use are the main motivating factors of this work.

Sur une anomalie du développement perturbatif de la théorie de Chern-Simons / On an anomaly of the perturbative expansion of Chern-Simons theoryCorbineau, Kévin 21 October 2016 (has links)
Maxim Kontsevich a défini un invariant $Z$ des sphères d'homologie rationnelle orientées de dimension $3$ en 1992, en poursuivant l'étude initiée par Edward Witten du développement perturbatif de la théorie de Chern-Simons.L'invariant $Z$ de Kontsevich est gradué. Il s'écrit $Z=(Z_n)_{nin NN }$, où $Z_n$ prend ses valeurs dans un espace $CA_n$ engendré par des diagrammes trivalents à $2n$ sommets appelésdiagrammes de Feynman-Jacobi de degré $n$.L'invariant $Z$ apparait d'abord comme un invariant $Z(M,tau)$ des sphères d'homologie rationnelle $M$ de dimension $3$ munies d'une parallélisation $tau$.Il est l'exponentielle d'un invariant $z(M,tau)=(z_n(M,tau))_{nin NN }$dont la partie de degré $n$ compte algébriquement les plongements des diagrammes de Feynman-Jacobi connexes à $2n$ sommets assujettis à vérifier certaines conditions.On peut associer un invariant homotopique entier $p_1(tau)$ aux parallélisations $tau$ des variétés orientées de dimension $3$, et il existe un élément $beta=(beta_n)_{nin NN}$ de $CA_n$ appelé anomalie tel que$$z_n(M,tau)-p_1(tau)beta_n$$ soit indépendant de $tau$ et noté $z_n(M)$.$$Z(M)=expleft((z_n(M))_{nin NN}right).$$On sait depuis l'introduction de cette constante par Greg Kuperberg et Dylan Thurston en 1999 que $beta_n=0$ si $n$ est pair et que $beta_1 neq 0$.Cette thèse porte sur le calcul de la première valeur inconnue $beta_3$. Elle en présente des expressions très simplifiées et implémentables sur ordinateur. / The Kontsevich invariant $Z$ of rational homology $3-$ sphere was constructed by Maxim Kontsevich in 1992 using configuration space integrals.This invariant is graduated. It can be written as $Z=(Z_n)_{nin NN}$, where $Z_n$ values in the space $mathcal{A}_n$ of jacobi diagram with order $n$. A Jacobi diagram with order $n$ is a trivalent graph with $2n$ vertices. At a first point, we can see $Z$ as an invariant $Z(M,tau)$ of rational homology $3-$spheres equipped with a trivialisation $tau$ so that $Z$ is the exponential of an invariant $z(M,tau)=(z_n(M,tau))_{ninNN}$. In fact, we can say that $z_n(M,tau)$ counts the number of embeddings of connected jacobi diagrams with order $n$ with some additionnal conditions. We can associate an homotopic integer invariant $p_1(tau)$ to each trivialisation $tau$ of oriented $3-$manifolds and it exists $beta=(beta_n)_{ninNN}$, where $beta_ninmathcal{A}_n$ that is called anomaly so that $$z_n(M,tau) - p_1(tay)$$ is independant of $tau$. We name it $z_n(M)$ and $$Z(M)=exp((z_n(M)_{nin NN})).$$Greg Kuperberg and Dylan Thurston introduced this constant in 1999. We already know that $beta_n=0$ if $n$ is even and $beta_1neq 0$. This thesis is about the computation of $beta_3$. It describes simplified expressions of $beta_3$, and this expressions can be compute with a computer.

Jamming and glass transition in mean-field theories and beyond / Jamming e transizione vetrosa in teorie di campo medio ed oltre / Transition vitreuse et de jamming en théories de champ moyen et au-delàAltieri, Ada 06 February 2018 (has links)
La description détaillée des systèmes désordonnés et vitreux représente un défi central en physique statistique et de la matière condensée, puisqu'à ce jour il n'existe pas de théorie unique et établie permettant de comprendre ces systèmes, pourtant omniprésents.Ce travail de recherche est lié en particulier à l'étude des matériaux vitreux à basse température. Plus précisément, si l'on considère des systèmes formés par un ensemble de particules athermiques avec des interactions répulsives de portée finie, en augmentant la densité, on peut observer une transition dite d'encombrement ("jamming"). Celle-ci consiste en un blocage des degrés de liberté accompagné par une augmentation spectaculaire de la rigidité du matériau.Nous étudierons ce problème à l’aide d’une analogie formelle entre des modèles de sphères et le perceptron, un modèle théorique qui développe une transition d'encombrement et des phénomènes de frustration typiques des systèmes désordonnés.En tant que modèle en champ moyen, il permet d'obtenir des résultats analytiques précis et généralisables à des systèmes à haute dimension.L'enjeu majeur de cette étude est de reconstruire le spectre des modes de vibration et toutes les propriétés pertinentes d'une phase spécifique (correspondant au régime dit des sphères dures).Dans ce cadre, nous dériverons le potentiel effectif en fonction des paramètres d'ordre du modèle et nous montrerons qu'il est dominé à proximité du point de jamming par une interaction logarithmique non triviale, qui clarifiera le lien entre les forces de contact et les distances moyennes entre les particules, dans la région critique et au-delà.Comprendre pleinement la transition d'encombrement et les propriétés du perceptron nous permettra de faire des progrès dans plusieurs domaines reliés. En premier lieu, cela peut conduire à une théorie complète des systèmes amorphes, à la fois en dimension infinie et en dimension finie.De plus, le modèle du perceptron semble avoir un lien étroit avec des problèmes dits de Von Neumann. En effet, les systèmes biologiques et écologiques développent souvent des propriétés liées à une condition pseudo-critique en mettant en oeuvre des mécanismes d'optimisation de ressource-consommation.Est-il possible d'identifier un régime caractérisé par une brisure de symétrie? Quel serait le spectre de fluctuations d'énergie dans ces systèmes?Ce ne sont que quelques-unes des questions auxquelles nous essayerons de répondre dans cette thèse.Cependant, l'approximation de champ moyen peut parfois fournir des informationsincorrectes ou trompeuses, en particulier dans l'étude de certaines transitions de phase et la détermination des dimensions critiques inférieure et supérieure.Afin d'avoir une vue d'ensemble et pouvoir manipuler correctement des systèmes en dimension finie, dans la suite de la thèse nous discuterons comment obtenir un développement perturbatif systématique, applicable à tout modèle, à condition que ce dernier soit défini sur un réseau ou un graphe biparti.Notre motivation est en particulier liée à la possibilité d'étudier certaines transitions de phase du second ordre qui existent sur le réseau de Bethe - c'est-à-dire un réseau en arbre sans boucles dont chaque noeud a une connectivité fixe - mais qui sont qualitativement différentes ou absentes dans le modèle entièrement connecté correspondant. / The detailed description of disordered and glassy systems represents an open problem in statistical physics and condensed matter. As yet, there is no single, well-established theory allowing to understand such systems. The research presented in this thesis is related in particular to the study of glassy materials in the low-temperature regime. More precisely, considering systems formed by athermal particles subject to repulsive short-range interactions, upon progressively increasing the density, a so-called jamming transition can be detected. It entails a freezing of the degrees of freedom and hence a huge increase of the material rigidity.We shall study this problem in view of a formal analogy between sphere models and the perceptron, a theoretical model undergoing a jamming transition and frustration phenomena typical of disordered systems. Being a mean-field model, it allows to obtain exact analytical results, which are generalizable to more complex high-dimensional settings.The main aim is to reconstruct the vibrational spectrum and all the relevant properties of a specific phase of the perceptron, corresponding to the hard-sphere regime.In this framework, we will derive the effective potential as a function of the gaps between and forces among the particles, and we will show that it is dominated by a non-trivial logarithmic interaction near the jamming point. This interaction in turn will clarify the relations existing between the relevant variables of the system, in the critical jamming region and beyond.Understanding the jamming transition and the perceptron properties will allow us to make progress in several related fields. First, this study could lay part of the groundwork towards a complete theory of amorphous systems, in both infinite and finite dimensions. Furthermore, the perceptron model seems to a have a close connection with the so-called Von Neumann problems. Indeed, biological and ecological systems often develop pseudo-critical properties and give rise to general mechanisms of resource-consumption optimisation.Is the identification of a broken symmetry regime possible? What would it yield in terms of the spectrum of the energy fluctuations?These are just a few questions we shall attempt to answer in this context.However, the mean-field approximation can sometimes provide wrong or misleading information, especially in studying certain phase transitions and determining the exact lower and upper critical dimensions. To have a broad perspective and correctly deal with finite-dimensional systems, in the second part of the thesis we will discuss obtaining a systematic perturbative expansion which can be applied to any model, as long as defined on a lattice or a bipartite graph.Our motivation is in particular due to the possibility of studying relevant second-order phase transitions which exist on the Bethe lattice — a lattice with a locally tree-like structure and fixed connectivity for each node — but which are qualitatively different or absent in the corresponding fully-connected version.
