Symmetry breaking in symmetric and asymmetric double-well potentials.
Motivated by recent experimental studies of matter waves and optical beams in double-well potentials, we study the corresponding solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Using a Galerkin-type approach, we obtain a detailed handle on the nonlinear solution branches of the problem, starting from the corresponding linear ones, and we predict the relevant bifurcations for both attractive an...
متن کاملQuantum kink model and Razavi double-well potentials related to SU(2) symmetry
In the present paper we consider a class of exact solutions of the Schröedinger equation with the Razavi potential. By means of this we obtain some wave functions and mass spectra of relativistic scalar field model with spontaneously broken symmetry about static kink solution. Also an appearance in the theory of bosons, which have two different spins, will be shown. Herewith the breaking of sym...
متن کاملEnergy splitting in symmetric double-well potentials
The quantum mechanical tunnelling in a smooth symmetric double-well potential is a long-standing and well-known problem. Three methods have been proposed to calculate the energy splitting: the instanton method @1,2#, the WKB approximation @3,4# and numerical calculation @4–6#. The instanton method is helpful to understand the physical insight of quantum tunnelling, but the validity is restricte...
متن کاملTunneling in asymmetric double well: instanton calculus
The level splitting formula of an asymmetric double well potential is calculated taking into account the multi-instanton contributions (dilute gas approximation). Results can be related with known semiclassical ones obtained with a truncated hamiltonian, and the symmetric case is easily recovered provided we consider the right limit. ICP: 03.65, 02.30 Instanton calculations when applied in Quan...
متن کاملSimulated quantum annealing of double-well and multiwell potentials.
We analyze the performance of quantum annealing as a heuristic optimization method to find the absolute minimum of various continuous models, including landscapes with only two wells and also models with many competing minima and with disorder. The simulations performed using a projective quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) algorithm are compared with those based on the finite-temperature path-integral Q...
