Abstract A model of quasistationary states is constructed for the one-dimensional edge states propagating along the edge of a two-dimensional topological insulator based on HgTe/CdTe quantum well in the presence of magnetic barriers with finite transparency. The lifetimes of these quasistationary states are found analytically and numerically via different approaches including the solution of the stationary Schrödinger equation with complex energy and the solution of the transmission problem for a double barrier structure. The results can serve as a guide for determining the parameters of magnetic barriers creating the quantum dots where the lifetimes for the broadened discrete levels are long enough for manipulation with their occupation numbers by external fields.

Quantum entanglement is studied in the neighborhood of a topological transition in some topological insulator models such as the two-dimensional Qi–Wu–Zhang model or Chern insulator. The system describes electrons hopping in two-dimensional chains. For the one-dimensional model case, there exist staggered hopping amplitudes. Our results show a strong effect of sudden variation of the topological charge Q in the neighborhood of phase transition on quantum entanglement for all the cases analyzed.

Exact Diagonalization Method

The one-dimensional interacting topological insulator is studied by means of exact diagonalization method. The topological properties are examined with the existence of the edge states and the quantized berry phase at half-filling. It is found that the topological phases are not only robust to small repulsive interactions but also are stabilized by small attractive interactions and also finite repulsive interaction can drive a topological nontrivial phase into a trivial one while the attractive interaction can drive a trivial phase into a nontrivial one. These results could be realized experimentally using cold atoms trapped in the 1D optical lattice.

The One

This chapter develops a Euclidean, two-dimensional, regions-based theory. As with the semi-Aristotelian account in Chapter 2, the goal here is to recover the now orthodox Dedekind–Cantor continuum on a point-free basis. The chapter derives the Archimedean property for a class of readily postulated orientations of certain special regions, what are called “generalized quadrilaterals” (intended as parallelograms), by which the entire space is covered. Then the chapter generalizes this to arbitrary orientations, and then establishes an isomorphism between the space and the usual point-based one. As in the one-dimensional case, this is done on the basis of axioms which contain no explicit “extremal clause”, and we have no axiom of induction other than ordinary numerical (mathematical) induction.

This paper presents two algorithms for mutual exclusion on optical bus architectures including the folded one-dimensional bus, the one-dimensional array with pipelined buses (1D APPB), and the two-dimensional array with pipelined buses (2D APPB). The first algorithm guarantees mutual exclusion, while the second guarantees both mutual exclusion and fairness. Both algorithms exploit the predictability of propagation delays in optical buses.

Lattice Green’S Function

A first-order differential equation of Green's function, at the origin G(0), for the one-dimensional lattice is derived by simple recurrence relation. Green's function at site (m) is then calculated in terms of G(0). A simple recurrence relation connecting the lattice Green's function at the site (m, n) and the first derivative of the lattice Green's function at the site (m ± 1, n) is presented for the two-dimensional lattice, a differential equation of second order in G(0, 0) is obtained. By making use of the latter recurrence relation, lattice Green's function at an arbitrary site is obtained in closed form. Finally, the phase shift and scattering cross-section are evaluated analytically and numerically for one- and two-impurities.

The increasing demand for water resources accentuates the need to reduce water waste through a more appropriate irrigation management. In the particular case of irrigated coffee planting, which in recent years presented growth with the predominance of drip irrigation, the improvement of drip irrigation management techniques is a necessity. The proper management of drip irrigation depends on the knowledge of the spatial pattern of soil moisture distribution inside the wetted strip formed under the irrigation lines. In this study, grids of 24 tensiometers were used to determine the water storage within the wetted strip formed under drippers, with a 3.78 L h-1 discharge, evenly spaced by 0.4 m, subjected to two different management criteria (fixed irrigation interval and 60 kPa tension). Estimates of storage based on a one-dimensional analysis, that only considers depth variations, were compared with two-dimensional estimates. The results indicate that for high-frequency irrigation the one-dimensional analysis is not appropriate. However, under less frequent irrigation, the two-dimensional analysis is dispensable, being the one-dimensional sufficient for calculating the water volume stored in the wetted strip.
