Effect of rotation symmetry to abelian Chern-Simons field theory and anyon equation on a sphere

We analyze the Chern-Simons field theory coupled to non-relativistic matter field on a sphere using canonical transformation on the fields with special attention to the role of the rotation symmetry: SO(3) invariance restricts the Hilbert space to the one with a definite number of charges and dictates Dirac quantization condition to the Chern-Simons coefficient, whereas SO(2) invariance does not. The corresponding Schr\"odinger equation for many anyons (and for multispecies) on the sphere are presented with appropriate boundary condition. In the presence of an external magnetic monopole source, the ground state solutions of anyons are compared with monopole harmonics. The role of the translation and modular symmetry on a torus is also expounded.Comment: Revtex 25page

Morphological Phase Diagram for Lipid Membrane Domains with Entropic Tension

Circular domains in phase-separated lipid vesicles with symmetric leaflet composition commonly exhibit three stable morphologies: flat, dimpled, and budded. However, stable dimples (i.e., partially budded domains) present a puzzle since simple elastic theories of domain shape predict that only flat and spherical budded domains are mechanically stable in the absence of spontaneous curvature. We argue that this inconsistency arises from the failure of the constant surface tension ensemble to properly account for the effect of entropic bending fluctuations. Formulating membrane elasticity within an entropic tension ensemble, wherein tension represents the free energy cost of extracting membrane area from thermal bending of the membrane, we calculate a morphological phase diagram that contains regions of mechanical stability for each of the flat, dimpled, and budded domain morphologies

Braided Statistics from Abelian Twist in κ\kappa-Minkowski Spacetime

$\kappa$-deformed commutation relation between quantum operators is constructed via abelian twist deformation in $\kappa$-Minkowski spacetime. The commutation relation is written in terms of universal $R$-matrix satisfying braided statistics. The equal-time commutator function turns out to vanish in this framework.Comment: 6pages, no figure

Resonance Patterns in a Stadium-shaped Microcavity

We investigate resonance patterns in a stadium-shaped microcavity around $n_ck R \simeq 10$, where $n_c$ is the refractive index, $k$ the vacuum wavenumber, and $R$ the radius of the circular part of the cavity. We find that the patterns of high $Q$ resonances can be classified, even though the classical dynamics of the stadium system is chaotic. The patterns of the high $Q$ resonances are consistent with the ray dynamical consideration, and appears as the stationary lasing modes with low pumping rate in the nonlinear dynamical model. All resonance patterns are presented in a finite range of $kR$.Comment: 8 pages, 9 figure
