Time-reversal symmetry and random polynomials
We analyse the density of roots of random polynomials where each complex coefficient is constructed of a random modulus and a fixed, deterministic phase. The density of roots is shown to possess a singular component only in the case for which the phases increase linearly with the index of coefficients. This means that, contrary to earlier belief, eigenvectors of a typical quantum chaotic system...
متن کاملTopological insulator with time-reversal symmetry
It is impossible to have quantum Hall effect without breaking the time-reversal symmetry. xy xy. If we want xy to be invariant under , xy xy, xy must be zero. Q: Can we have other type of topological insulators, in the presence of -symmetry? By saying topological insulator, I mean an insulator with a protected metallic edge. By protected, I mean no matter what we do, we cannot tu...
متن کاملSpontaneous Breakdown of the Time Reversal Symmetry
The role of the environment initial conditions in the breaking of the time reversal symmetry of effective theories and in generating the soft irreversibility is studied by the help of Closed Time Path formalism. The initial conditions break the time reversal symmetry of the solution of the equation of motion in a trivial manner. When open systems are considered then the initial conditions of th...
متن کاملOptimization based on bacterial chemotaxis
We present an optimization algorithm based on a model of bacterial chemotaxis. The original biological model is used to formulate a simple optimization algorithm, which is evaluated on a set of standard test problems. Based on this evaluation, several features are added to the basic algorithm using evolutionary concepts in order to obtain an improved optimization strategy, called the bacteria c...
متن کاملBacterial chemotaxis
Chemotaxis is the directed motion of an organism toward environmental conditions it deems attractive and/or away from surroundings it finds repellent. Movement of flagellated bacteria such as Escherichia coli can be characterized as a sequence of smooth-swimming runs punctuated by intermittent tumbles. Tumbles last only a fraction of a second, which is sufficient to effectively randomize the di...
