Exponentially Small

In non-relativistic quantum theories the Lieb-Robinson bound defines an effective light cone with exponentially small tails outside of it. In this work we use it to derive a bound for the correlation function of two local disjoint observables at different times if the initial state has a power-law decay. We show that the exponent of the power-law of the bound is identical to the initial (equilibrium) decay. We explicitly verify this result by studying the full dynamics of the susceptibilities and correlations in the exactly solvable Luttinger model after a sudden quench from the non-interacting to the interacting model.

Abstract We develop a formula for the power-law decay of various sets for symmetric stable random vectors in terms of how many vectors from the support of the corresponding spectral measure are needed to enter the set. One sees different decay rates in “different directions”, illustrating the phenomenon of hidden regular variation. We give several examples and obtain quite varied behavior, including sets which do not have exact power-law decay.

Statistical Effects

AbstractTwo statistical effects in the long-term chaotic asteroidal dynamics are considered, namely the power-law character of the dependence of recurrence times on local Lyapunov times and the power-law decay in the tails of the recurrence distributions. The dependences in both cases are shaped by effects of anomalous transport, due to the presence of the chaos border in phase space, and by statistical selection effects.

Oceanic Currents

Oceans host communities of plankton composed of relatively few abundant species and many rare species. The number of rare protist species in these communities, as estimated in metagenomic studies, decays as a steep power law of their abundance. The ecological factors at the origin of this pattern remain elusive. We propose that chaotic advection by oceanic currents affects biodiversity patterns of rare species. To test this hypothesis, we introduce a spatially explicit coalescence model that reconstructs the species diversity of a sample of water. Our model predicts, in the presence of chaotic advection, a steeper power law decay of the species abundance distribution and a steeper increase of the number of observed species with sample size. A comparison of metagenomic studies of planktonic protist communities in oceans and in lakes quantitatively confirms our prediction. Our results support that oceanic currents positively affect the diversity of rare aquatic microbes.
