Regular tunnelling sequences in mixed systems

Regular Tunnelling Sequences in Mixed Systems

We show that the pattern of tunnelling rates can display a vivid and regular pattern when the classical dynamics is of mixed chaotic/regular type. We consider the situation in which the dominant tunnelling route connects to a stable periodic orbit and this orbit is surrounded by a regular island which supports a number of quantum states. We derive an explicit semiclassical expression for the po...

Filter-regular Sequences and Mixed Multiplicities

Let S be a finitely generated standard multigraded algebra over an Artinian local ring A; M a finitely generated multigraded S-module. This paper answers to the question when mixed multiplicities of M are positive and characterizes them in terms of lengths of A-modules. As an application, we get interesting results on mixed multiplicities of ideals, and recover some early results in [Te] and [TV].

Note on regular and coregular sequences

Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring and let M be a nitely generated R-module. If I is an ideal of R generated by M-regular sequence, then we study the vanishing of the rst Tor functors. Moreover, for Artinian modules and coregular sequences we examine the vanishing of the rst Ext functors.

Spin tunnelling in mesoscopic systems

Abstract. We study spin tunnelling in molecular magnets as an instance of a mesoscopic phenomenon, with special emphasis on the molecule Fe8. We show that the tunnel splitting between various pairs of Zeeman levels in this molecule oscillates as a function of applied magnetic field, vanishing completely at special points in the space of magnetic fields, known as diabolical points. This phenomen...
