A measure-preserving formalism is applied to topological spin/band models and yields observations about pumping. It occurs at topological phase transition (TPT), i.e., a $Z_2$-flip, suggesting that $Z_2$ can imply bulk effects. The models asymptotic behavior is analytically solved via ergodicity. The pumping probability is geometric, fractional, and has a ceiling of $frac{1}{2}$. Intriguingly, theorems are proved about dephasing associated with this pumping, which is linked to the systems dimension and the distinction between rational and irrational numbers. Experimental detection is discussed.

We unveil the existence of a non-trivial Berry phase associated to the dynamics of a quantum particle in a one dimensional box with moving walls. It is shown that a suitable choice of boundary conditions has to be made in order to preserve unitarity. For these boundary conditions we compute explicitly the geometric phase two-form on the parameter space. The unboundedness of the Hamiltonian describing the system leads to a natural prescription of renormalization for divergent contributions arising from the boundary.
We deal with the gap function and the thermodynamical potential in the BCS-Bogoliubov theory of superconductivity, where the gap function is a function of the temperature $T$ only. We show that the squared gap function is of class $C^2$ on the closed interval $[ 0, T_c ]$ and point out some more properties of the gap function. Here, $T_c$ stands for the transition temperature. On the basis of this study we then give, examining the thermodynamical potential, a mathematical proof that the transition to a superconducting state is a second-order phase transition. Furthermore, we obtain a new and more precise form of the gap in the specific heat at constant volume from a mathematical point of view.
In this work, we study a bipartite system composed by a pair of entangled qudits coupled to an environment. Initially, we derive a master equation and show how the dynamics can be restricted to a diagonal sector that includes a maximally entangled state (MES). Next, we solve this equation for mixed qutrit pairs and analyze the $I$-concurrence $C(t)$ for the effective state, which is needed to compute the geometric phase when the initial state is pure. Unlike (locally operated) isolated systems, the coupled system leads to a nontrivial time-dependence, with $C(t)$ generally decaying to zero at asymptotic times. However, when the initial condition gets closer to a MES state, the effective concurrence is more protected against the effects of decoherence, signaling a transition to an effective two-qubit MES state at asymptotic times. This transition is also observed in the geometric phase evolution, computed in the kinematic approach. Finally, we explore the system-environment coupling parameter space and show the existence of a Weyl symmetry among the various physical quantities.
We study a log-gas on a network (a finite, simple graph) confined in a bounded subset of a local field (i.e. R, C, Q_{p} the field of p-adic numbers). In this gas, a log-Coulomb interaction between two charged particles occurs only when the sites of the particles are connected by an edge of the network. The partition functions of such gases turn out to be a particular class of multivariate local zeta functions attached to the network and a positive test function which is determined by the confining potential. The methods and results of the theory of local zeta functions allow us to establish that the partition functions admit meromorphic continuations in the parameter b{eta} (the inverse of the absolute temperature). We give conditions on the charge distributions and the confining potential such that the meromorphic continuations of the partition functions have a pole at a positive value b{eta}_{UV}, which implies the existence of phase transitions at finite temperature. In the case of p-adic fields the meromorphic continuations of the partition functions are rational functions in the variable p^{-b{eta}}. We give an algorithm for computing such rational functions. For this reason, we can consider the p-adic log-Coulomb gases as exact solvable models. We expect that all these models for different local fields share common properties, and that they can be described by a uniform theory.
A geometric entropy is defined as the Riemannian volume of the parameter space of a statistical manifold associated with a given network. As such it can be a good candidate for measuring networks complexity. Here we investigate its ability to single out topological features of networks proceeding in a bottom-up manner: first we consider small size networks by analytical methods and then large size networks by numerical techniques. Two different classes of networks, the random graphs and the scale--free networks, are investigated computing their Betti numbers and then showing the capability of geometric entropy of detecting homologies.
