Triviality of Bloch and Bloch-Dirac bundles

چکیده
In the framework of the theory of an electron in a periodic potential, we reconsider the longstanding problem of the existence of smooth and periodic quasi-Bloch functions, which is shown to be equivalent to the triviality of the Bloch bundle. By exploiting the time-reversal symmetry of the Hamiltonian and some bundle-theoretic methods, we show that the problem has a positive answer in any dimension d ≤ 3, thus generalizing a previous result by G. Nenciu. We provide a general formulation of the result, aiming at the application to the Dirac equation with a periodic potential and to piezoelectricity.

Weighted composition operators on weighted Bergman spaces and weighted Bloch spaces
In this paper, we characterize the bonudedness and compactness of weighted composition operators from weighted Bergman spaces to weighted Bloch spaces. Also, we investigate weighted composition operators on weighted Bergman spaces and extend the obtained results in the unit ball of $mathbb{C}^n$.

متن کاملOn characterizations of hyperbolic harmonic Bloch and Besov spaces
We define hyperbolic harmonic $omega$-$alpha$-Bloch space $mathcal{B}_omega^alpha$ in the unit ball $mathbb{B}$ of ${mathbb R}^n$ and characterize it in terms of $$frac{omegabig((1-|x|^2)^{beta}(1-|y|^2)^{alpha-beta}big)|f(x)-f(y)|}{[x,y]^gamma|x-y|^{1-gamma}},$$ where $0leq gammaleq 1$. Similar results are extended to little $omega$-$alpha$-Bloch and Besov spaces. These obtained...
متن کاملBloch-Zener oscillations across a merging transition of Dirac points.
Bloch oscillations are a powerful tool to investigate spectra with Dirac points. By varying band parameters, Dirac points can be manipulated and merged at a topological transition toward a gapped phase. Under a constant force, a Fermi sea initially in the lower band performs Bloch oscillations and may Zener tunnel to the upper band mostly at the location of the Dirac points. The tunneling proba...
