in this paper we obtain lower and upper estimates for the essential norms of generalized composition operators from weighted dirichlet spaces or bloch type spaces to $q_k$ type spaces.

The dynamics of two nonlinear Bloch systems is studied from the viewpoint of bifurcation and a particular parameter space has been explored for the stability analysis based on stability criterion. This enables the choice of the desired unstable periodic orbit from the numerous unstable ones present within the attractor through the process of closed return pairs. A generalized active control met...

Based on the system-reservoir description we propose a simple solvable microscopic model for a nonequilibrium bath. This captures the essential features of a nonstationary quantum Markov process. We establish an appropriate generalization of the fluctuation-dissipation relation pertaining to this process and explore the essential modifications of the Bloch equations to reveal the nonexponential...

After a century of neglect the dilogarithm appeared twenty years ago in works of Gabrielov-Gelfand-Losik [GGL] on a combinatorial formula for the first Pontryagin class, Bloch on K-theory and regulators [Bl1] and Wigner on Lie groups. The dilogarithm has a single-valued cousin : the Bloch Wigner function L2(z) := ImLi2(z) + arg(1− z) log |z|. Let r(x1, ..., x4) be the cross-ratio of 4 distinct ...

In this paper, we study algebraic and analytic properties of Fourier coefficients, expressed as q-series, of the so-called Bloch-Okounkov n-point function. We prove several results about these series and explain how they relate to Rogers’ false theta function. Then we obtain their full asymptotics, as τ → 0, and use this result to derive asymptotic properties of the coefficients in the q-expans...

We propose to use periodically spaced, curved optical waveguides for observation of optical Bloch oscillations. The refractive index distribution in this system is equivalent to the sum of a periodic term resulting from the equal spacing of the waveguides and a linear ramp, created by the curvature. We demonstrate numerically that light propagation in this geometry exhibits spatial Bloch oscill...

The progress of semiconductor physics in the decade 1970-1980 is connected with gradual deviation from the electronic band structure of ideal crystal of Bloch picture (Bloch, 1928) where, unlike atomic world with its discrete and precisely defined, in the limits of uncertainty relation, energy levels, energy of bound electron is a multivalued function of momentum in the energy band and density ...

We present a geometrical representation of the process of sum frequency generation in the undepleted pump approximation, in analogy with the known optical Bloch equations. We use this analogy to propose a technique for achieving both high efficiency and large bandwidth in sum frequency conversion using the adiabatic inversion scheme. The process is analogous with rapid adiabatic passage in NMR,...

We report the observation of rotational Bloch oscillations in a gas of nitrogen molecules kicked by a periodic train of femtosecond laser pulses. A controllable detuning from the quantum resonance creates an effective accelerating potential in angular momentum space, inducing Bloch-like oscillations of the rotational excitation. These oscillations are measured via the temporal modulation of the...
