One-parameter groups and combinatorial physics

Gerard Duchamp, Karol A. Penson, Allan I. Solomon +2

In this communication, we consider the normal ordering of sums of elements of the form (a*^r a a*^s), where a* and a are boson creation and annihilation operators. We discuss the i…

Dissipative Quantum Control

Allan I Solomon, Sonia G Schirmer

Nature, in the form of dissipation, inevitably intervenes in our efforts to control a quantum system. In this talk we show that although we cannot, in general, compensate for dissi…

Critical temperature for entanglement transition in Heisenberg models

Hongchen Fu, Allan I Solomon, Xiaoguang Wang

We study thermal entanglement in some low-dimensional Heisenberg models. It is found that in each model there is a critical temperature above which thermal entanglement is absent.

Combinatorial Physics, Normal Order and Model Feynman Graphs

A. I. Solomon, P. Blasiak, G. Duchamp +2

The general normal ordering problem for boson strings is a combinatorial problem. In this note we restrict ourselves to single-mode boson monomials. This problem leads to elegant g…

The Boson Normal Ordering Problem and Generalized Bell Numbers

P. Blasiak, K. A. Penson, A. I. Solomon

For any function F(x) having a Taylor expansion we solve the boson normal ordering problem for F[(a*)^r a^s], with r,s positive integers,[a,a*]=1, i.e. we provide exact and explici…

Combinatorics of Boson Normal Ordering: the Dobinski Formula Revisited

Karol A. Penson, Allan I. Solomon

We derive explicit formulas for the normal ordering of powers of arbitrary monomials of boson operators. These formulas lead to generalisations of conventional Bell and Stirling nu…
