Detailed calculations are provided to obtain results of Kaluza-Klein type compactification for free massive scalar fields and abelian free gauge fields. As already indicated in the literature, a tower of massive fields results from the compactification with mass terms having signs opposite to those of the ones appearing in other five-dimensional theories with an extra space dimension. We perform elaborate numerical calculations to highlight the magnitude of the imaginary masses and ask if we need to explore alternative compactification techniques.展开更多

Formulas for relativistic coordinate and velocity transformations are derived, leading to a new expression for the speed limit. Extending the ideas of Einstein’s Theory of Special Relativity, concepts of five-velocity and five-momenta are introduced. We get a new formula for the rest energy of a massive object. Based on a non-relativistic limit, a two-time dependent Schrödinger-like equation for infinite square-well potential is developed and solved. The extra time dimension is compactified on a closed loop topology with a period matching the Planck time. It generates interference of additional quantum states with an ultra-small period of oscillation. Some cosmological implications of the concept of four-dimensional versus five-dimensional masses are briefly discussed, too.展开更多

We define and compute critical points at infinity of polynomial autonomuos differential systems and develop an explicit formula for the leading asymptotic term of diverging solutions to critical points at infinity. Applications to problems of completeness and incompleteness (the existence and nonexistence respectively of global solutions) of dynamical systems are provided. In particular a quadratic competing species model and the Lorentz equations are being used as arenas where our technique is applied. The study is also relevant to the Painlevé property and to questions of integrability of dynamical systems.展开更多

Increasi...Using simple box quantization, we demonstrate explicitly that a spatial transition will release or absorb energy, and that compactification releases latent heat with an attendant change in volume and entropy. Increasing spatial dimension for a given number of particles costs energy while decreasing dimensions supplies energy, which can be quantified, using a generalized version of the Clausius-Clapyeron relation. We show this explicitly for massive particles trapped in a box. Compactification from N -dimensional space to (N - 1) spatial dimensions is also simply demonstrated and the correct limit to achieve a lower energy result is to take the limit, Lw → 0, where Lw is the compactification length parameter. Higher dimensional space has more energy and more entropy, all other things being equal, for a given cutoff in energy.展开更多

This is to illustrate the applicability of Nonstandard analytic tool to beginners interested in Nonstandard analytic methods. The general procedure is as follows: A suitable equivalence relation is defined on an enlargement <sup>*</sup><em>X </em>of the space <em>X</em> which is a completely regular space or a locally compact Hausdorff space or a locally compact Abelian group. Accordingly, every <em>f</em> in <em>C</em>(<em>X</em>,<em>R</em>) (the space of bounded continuous real valued functions on <em>X</em>) or <em>Cc</em>(<em>X</em>,<em>R</em>) (the space of continuous real valued functions on <em>X</em> with compact support) or the dual group <span style="white-space:nowrap;">Γ </span>of the locally compact Abelian group <em>G</em> is extended to the set <img alt="" src="Edit_b9535172-924d-44f0-bab3-c49db17a3b7a.png" /> of the above mentioned equivalence classes. A compact topology on <img alt="" src="Edit_9d7962a3-b8a3-4693-b62a-078c8c4b4853.png" /> is obtained as the weak topology generated by these extensions of <em>f</em>.

文摘Three classical compactification procedures are presented with nonstandard flavour. This is to illustrate the applicability of Nonstandard analytic tool to beginners interested in Nonstandard analytic methods. The general procedure is as follows: A suitable equivalence relation is defined on an enlargement <sup>*</sup><em>X </em>of the space <em>X</em> which is a completely regular space or a locally compact Hausdorff space or a locally compact Abelian group. Accordingly, every <em>f</em> in <em>C</em>(<em>X</em>,<em>R</em>) (the space of bounded continuous real valued functions on <em>X</em>) or <em>Cc</em>(<em>X</em>,<em>R</em>) (the space of continuous real valued functions on <em>X</em> with compact support) or the dual group <span style="white-space:nowrap;">Γ </span>of the locally compact Abelian group <em>G</em> is extended to the set <img alt="" src="Edit_b9535172-924d-44f0-bab3-c49db17a3b7a.png" /> of the above mentioned equivalence classes. A compact topology on <img alt="" src="Edit_9d7962a3-b8a3-4693-b62a-078c8c4b4853.png" /> is obtained as the weak topology generated by these extensions of <em>f</em>. Then <em>X</em> is naturally imbedded densely in <img alt="" src="Edit_f7d403b2-eff3-4555-b8e7-1b106e06d2e7.png" />.
文摘Closed and basic closed C*D-filters are used in a process similar to Wallman method for compactifications of the topological spaces Y, of which, there is a subset of C*(Y) containing a non-constant function, where C*(Y) is the set of bounded real continuous functions on Y. An arbitrary Hausdorff compactification (Z,h) of a Tychonoff space X can be obtained by using basic closed C*D-filters from in a similar way, where C(Z) is the set of real continuous functions on Z.
