    Classical no-cloning theorem under Liouville dynamics by non-Csisz\'ar f-divergence

    Full text link
    The Csisz\'ar f-divergence, which is a class of information distances, is known to offer a useful tool for analysing the classical counterpart of the cloning operations that are quantum mechanically impossible for the factorized and marginality classical probability distributions under Liouville dynamics. We show that a class of information distances that does not belong to this divergence class also allows for the formulation of a classical analogue of the quantum no-cloning theorem. We address a family of nonlinear Liouville-like equations, and generic distances, to obtain constraints on the corresponding functional forms, associated with the formulation of classical analogue of the no-cloning principle.Comment: 6 pages, revised, published versio

    Physical aspects of naked singularity explosion - How does a naked singularity explode? --

    Get PDF
    The behaviors of quantum stress tensor for the scalar field on the classical background of spherical dust collapse is studied. In the previous works diverging flux of quantum radiation was predicted. We use the exact expressions in a 2D model formulated by Barve et al. Our present results show that the back reaction does not become important during the semiclassical phase. The appearance of the naked singularity would not be affected by this quantum field radiation. To predict whether the naked singularity explosion occurs or not we need the theory of quantum gravity. We depict the generation of the diverging flux inside the collapsing star. The quantum energy is gathered around the center positively. This would be converted to the diverging flux along the Cauchy horizon. The ingoing negative flux crosses the Cauchy horizon. The intensity of it is divergent only at the central naked singularity. This diverging negative ingoing flux is balanced with the outgoing positive diverging flux which propagates along the Cauchy horizon. After the replacement of the naked singularity to the practical high density region the instantaneous diverging radiation would change to more milder one with finite duration.Comment: 18 pages, 16 figure

    Naked Singularity Explosion

    Full text link
    It is known that the gravitational collapse of a dust ball results in naked singularity formation from an initial density profile which is physically reasonable. In this paper, we show that explosive radiation is emitted during the formation process of the naked singularity.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, Accepted for Publication in Phys. Rev.

    Onset of inflation in inhomogeneous cosmology

    Full text link
    We study how the initial inhomogeneities of the universe affect the onset of inflation in the closed universe. We consider the model of a chaotic inflation which is driven by a massive scalar field. In order to construct an inhomogeneous universe model, we use the long wavelength approximation ( the gradient expansion method ). We show the condition of the inhomogeneities for the universe to enter the inflationary phase.Comment: 22 pages including 12 eps figures, RevTe

    The structure of non-spacelike geodesics in dust collapse

    Get PDF
    We study here the behaviour of non-spacelike geodesics in dust collapse models in order to understand the casual structure of the spacetime. The geodesic families coming out, when the singularity is naked, corresponding to different initial data are worked out and analyzed. We also bring out the similarity of the limiting behaviour for different types of geodesics in the limit of approach to the singularity.Comment: 23 pages, 6 figures, to appear in PR

    Thermodynamics of ideal quantum gas with fractional statistics in D dimensions

    Get PDF
    We present exact and explicit results for the thermodynamic properties (isochores, isotherms, isobars, response functions, velocity of sound) of a quantum gas in dimensions D>=1 and with fractional exclusion statistics 0<=g<=1 connecting bosons (g=0) and fermions (g=1). In D=1 the results are equivalent to those of the Calogero-Sutherland model. Emphasis is given to the crossover between boson-like and fermion-like features, caused by aspects of the statistical interaction that mimic long-range attraction and short-range repulsion. The full isochoric heat capacity and the leading low-T term of the isobaric expansivity in D=2 are independent of g. The onset of Bose-Einstein condensation along the isobar occurs at a nonzero transition temperature in all dimensions. The T-dependence of the velocity of sound is in simple relation to isochores and isobars. The effects of soft container walls are accounted for rigorously for the case of a pure power-law potential.Comment: 15 pages, 31 figure

    The thermodynamic limit for fractional exclusion statistics

    Full text link
    I discuss Haldane's concept of generalised exclusion statistics (Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 67}, 937, 1991) and I show that it leads to inconsistencies in the calculation of the particle distribution that maximizes the partition function. These inconsistencies appear when mutual exclusion statistics is manifested between different subspecies of particles in the system. In order to eliminate these inconsistencies, I introduce new mutual exclusion statistics parameters, which are proportional to the dimension of the Hilbert sub-space on which they act. These new definitions lead to properly defined particle distributions and thermodynamic properties. In another paper (arXiv:0710.0728) I show that fractional exclusion statistics manifested in general systems with interaction have these, physically consistent, statistics parameters.Comment: 8 page

    Convergence to a self-similar solution in general relativistic gravitational collapse

    Get PDF
    We study the spherical collapse of a perfect fluid with an equation of state P=kρP=k\rho by full general relativistic numerical simulations. For 0, it has been known that there exists a general relativistic counterpart of the Larson-Penston self-similar Newtonian solution. The numerical simulations strongly suggest that, in the neighborhood of the center, generic collapse converges to this solution in an approach to a singularity and that self-similar solutions other than this solution, including a ``critical solution'' in the black hole critical behavior, are relevant only when the parameters which parametrize initial data are fine-tuned. This result is supported by a mode analysis on the pertinent self-similar solutions. Since a naked singularity forms in the general relativistic Larson-Penston solution for 0, this will be the most serious known counterexample against cosmic censorship. It also provides strong evidence for the self-similarity hypothesis in general relativistic gravitational collapse. The direct consequence is that critical phenomena will be observed in the collapse of isothermal gas in Newton gravity, and the critical exponent γ\gamma will be given by γ0.11\gamma\approx 0.11, though the order parameter cannot be the black hole mass.Comment: 22 pages, 15 figures, accepted for publication in Physical Review D, reference added, typos correcte

    Role of Initial Data in Higher Dimensional Quasi-Spherical Gravitational Collapse

    Full text link
    We study the gravitational collapse in (n+2n+2)-D quasi-spherical Szekeres space-time (which possess no killing vectors) with dust as the matter distribution. Instead of choosing the radial coordinate `rr' as the initial value for the scale factor RR, we consider a power function of rr as the initial scale for the radius RR. We examine the influence of initial data on the formation of singularity in gravitational collapse.Comment: 7 Latex Pages, RevTex Style, No figure
