A kind of systems on the sphere, whose trajectories are similar to the Lissajous curves, are studied by means of one example. The symmetries are constructed following a unified and straightforward procedure for both the quantum and the classical versions of the model. In the quantum case it is stressed how the symmetries give the degeneracy of each energy level. In the classical case it is shown how the constants of motion supply the orbits, the motion and the frequencies in a natural way.
Integrable systems in low dimensions, constructed through the symmetry reduction method, are studied using phase portrait and variable separation techniques. In particular, invariant quantities and explicit periodic solutions are determined. Widely applied models in Physics are shown to appear as particular cases of the method. 02.20.Sv; 02.30.Jr; 03.20.+i Running title: Pseudo-orthogonal groups and integrable systems
A class of two-dimensional superintegrable systems on a constant curvature surface is considered as the natural generalization of some well known one-dimensional factorized systems. By using standard methods to find the shape-invariant intertwining operators we arrive at a so(6) dynamical algebra and its Hamiltonian hierarchies. We pay attention to those associated to certain unitary irreducible representations that can be displayed by means of three-dimensional polyhedral lattices. We also discuss the role of superpotentials in this new context.
We study nonlinear wave phenomena in coupled ring resonator optical waveguides in the tight coupling regime. A discrete model for the system dynamics is put forward and its steady state nonlinear Bloch modes are derived. The switching behavior of the transmission system is addressed numerically and the results are explained in the light of this analytical result. We also present a numerical study on the spontaneous generation of Bragg solitons from a continuous-wave input.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
