Balls in Boxes and Quantum Gravity
Four dimensional simplicial gravity has been studied by means of Monte Carlo simulations for some time [1], the main outcome of the studies being that the model undergoes a discontinuous phase transition [2] between an elongated and a crumpled phase when one changes the curvature (Newton) coupling. In the crumpled phase there are singular vertices growing extensively with the volume of the syst...
متن کاملBalls-in-boxes condensation on networks.
We discuss two different regimes of condensate formation in zero-range processes on networks: on a q-regular network, where the condensate is formed as a result of a spontaneous symmetry breaking, and on an irregular network, where the symmetry of the partition function is explicitly broken. In the latter case we consider a minimal irregularity of the q-regular network introduced by a single Q ...
متن کاملGravity balls in induced gravity model— ’gravitational lens’ effects
In non-minimally coupled effective gravity theories one can have non-topological solitonic solutions. A typical solution is a spherical region with Geff = 0 outside and having the canonical Newtonian value inside. Such a spherical domain (gravity-ball) is characterized by an effective index of refraction which causes bending of light incident on it. The gravity ball thus acts as a spherical len...
متن کاملAuger recombination in HgCdTe quantum wires and quantum boxes
Quantum-wire and quantum-box structures for narrow-gap materials with small effective masses, such as HgCdTe, can readily be fabricated using current lithographic techniques. In this article, we calculate the Auger-recombination carrier lifetimes in HgCdTe quantumwire and quantum-box structures, with band gaps in the 2-5 ,um wavelength range. Quantum confinement is generally believed to increas...
متن کاملQuantum Corrections to Q-Balls
We extend calculational techniques for static solitons to the case of field configurations with simple time dependence in order to consider quantum effects on the stability of Q-balls. These nontopological solitons exist classically for any fixed value of an unbroken global charge Q. We show that one-loop quantum effects can destabilize very small Q-balls. We show how the properties of the soli...
