Heine-Stieltjes correspondence and a new angular momentum projection for many-particle systems
A new angular momentum projection for systems of particles with arbitrary spins is formulated based on the Heine-Stieltjes correspondence, which can be regarded as the solutions of the mean-field-plus -pairing model in the strong-pairing interaction G -> 8 limit. Properties of the Stieltjes zeros of the extended Heine-Stieltjes polynomials, whose roots determine the projected states, and the related Van Vleck zeros are discussed. An electrostatic interpretation of these zeros is presented. As examples, applications to n nonidentical particles of spin 1/2 and to identical bosons or fermions are made to elucidate the procedure and properties of the Stieltjes zeros and the related Van Vleck zeros. It is shown that the new angular momentum projection for n identical bosons or fermions can be simplified with the branching multiplicity formula of U(N) down arrow O(3) and the special choices of the parameters used in the projection. Especially, it is shown that the solutions for identical bosons can always be expressed in terms of zeros of Jacobi polynomials. However, unlike nonidentical particle systems, the n-coupled states of identical particles are nonorthogonal with respect to the multiplicity label after the projection.

Integrable electron model with correlated hopping and quantum supersymmetry
Abstract We give the q -deformed analogue of a recently introduced electron model which generalizes the Hubbard model with additional correlated hopping terms and electron pair hopping. The model contains two independent parameters and is invariant with respect to the quantum superalgebra U q ( gl (2|1)). It is shown to be integrable in one dimension by means of the quantum inverse scattering method.

Elliptic Gaudin models and elliptic KZ equations
The Gaudin models based on the face-type elliptic quantum groups and the XYZ Gaudin models are studied. The Gaudin model Hamiltonians are constructed and are diagonalized by using the algebraic Bethe ansatz method. The corresponding face-type Knizhnik–Zamolodchikov equations and their solutions are given.

Some algebraic identities in anomalous gauge theories
Some useful algebraic relations between the anomaly of Dmu Jmu and anomalous commutators are derived using only the canonical commutators and the equation of motion. Their applications are discussed.

Multiple reference states and complete spectrum of the Zn Belavin model with open boundaries
The multiple reference state structure of the Zn Belavin model with non-diagonal boundary terms is discovered. It is found that there exist n reference states, each of them yields a set of eigenvalues and Bethe Ansatz equations of the transfer matrix. These n sets of eigenvalues together constitute the complete spectrum of the model. In the quasi-classic limit, they give the complete spectrum of the corresponding Gaudin model.

Local Quasitriangular Hopf Algebras
We find a new class of Hopf algebras, local quasitriangular Hopf algebras, which generalize quasitriangular Hopf algebras. Using these Hopf algebras, we obtain solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation in a systematic way. The category of modules with finite cycles over a local quasitriangular Hopf algebra is a braided tensor category.

Angular momentum in non-relativistic QED and photon contribution to spin of hydrogen atom
Abstract We study angular momentum in non-relativistic quantum electrodynamics (NRQED). We construct the effective total angular momentum operator by applying Noether's theorem to the NRQED lagrangian. We calculate the NRQED matching for the individual components of the QED angular momentum up to one loop. We illustrate an application of our results by the first calculation of the angular momentum of the ground state hydrogen atom carried in radiative photons, α em 3 / 18 π , which might be measurable in future atomic experiments.

Cosmological solutions of a nonlocal model with a perfect fluid
A nonlocal gravity model which does not assume the existence of a new dimensional parameter in the action and includes a function f(−1R), with the d'Alembertian operator, is studied. By specifying an exponential form for the function f and including a matter sector with a constant equation of state parameter, all available power-law solutions in the Jordan frame are obtained. New power-law solutions in the Einstein frame are also probed. Furthermore, the relationship between power-law solutions in both frames, established through conformal transformation, is substantially clarified. The correspondence between power-law solutions in these two frames is proven to be a very useful tool in order to obtain new solutions in the Einstein frame.

Berry phase in neutrino oscillations
We study the Berry phase in neutrino oscillations for both Dirac and Majorana neutrinos. In order to have a Berry phase, the neutrino oscillations must occur in a varying medium, the neutrino-background interactions must depend on at least two independent densities, and also there must be CP violation. If the neutrino interactions with matter are mediated only by the standard model W and Z boson exchanges, these conditions imply that there must be at least three generations of neutrinos. The CP violating Majorana phases do not play a role in generating a Berry phase. We show that a natural way to satisfy the conditions for the generation of a Berry phase is to have sterile neutrinos with active-sterile neutrino mixing, in which case at least two active and one sterile neutrinos are required. If there are additional new CP violating flavor changing interactions, it is also possible to have a nonzero Berry phase with just two generations.

Dark matter as the trigger of strong electroweak phase transition
In this paper, we propose a new possible connection between dark matter relic density and baryon asymmetry of the universe. The portal between standard model sector and dark matter not only controls the relic density and detections of dark matter, but also allows the dark matter to trigger the first order electroweak phase transition. We discuss systematically possible scalar dark matter candidates, starting from a real singlet to arbitrary high representations. We show that the simplest realization is provided by a doublet, and that strong first-order electroweak phase transition implies a lower bound on the dark matter direct detection rate. The mass of dark matter lies between 45 and 80 GeV, allowing for an appreciable invisible decay width of the Standard Model Higgs boson, which is constrained to be lighter than 130 GeV for the sake of the strong phase transition.

Phase Structure of Strange Matter in a Non-topological Soliton Model
A non-topological soliton model with strange quarks is suggested to investigate the phase structure of strange matter. The results are qualitatively in agreement with that obtained by MIT bag model provided the ratio of coupling constants of different quarks to soliton scalar field chi(sigma) = g(s sigma)/g(q sigma) larger than a critical value chi(c) similar to 0.86, but as chi(sigma) gets smaller than chi(c), the phase structure may change.
