A way of constructing an equation for quasi-particle random phase approximation (RPA) including unpaired mode effects is proposed. We obtain a Jacobi equation on the coset manifold SO(2N+2)/U(N+1). Assuming the periodic Jacobi fields, we can get the SO(2N+1) RPA equation applicable to odd fermion systems.
We study the variational properties of the action functional appeared in the time-dependent Hartree-Bogoliubov (TDHB) theory, Through the calculus of the second variation on the coset manifold SO(2N)/U(N), the Jacobi equation is obtained. Assuming the periodic Jacobi field, we derive in a natural way the equation for the quasi-particle random phase approximation (RPA) describing the collective excitation around certain static HB fields. The present method of obtaining the SO(2N) RPA may be useful to get the SO(2N+1) RPA.
Toward a unified algebraic theory for mean-field Hamiltonian describing paired- and unpaired-mode effects, in this paper, we propose a generalized Hartree–Bogoliubov mean-field Hamiltonian in terms of fermion pair and creation-annihilation operators of the [Formula: see text] Lie algebra. We diagonalize the generalized Hartree–Bogoliubov mean-field Hamiltonian and throughout its diagonalization we can first obtain the unpaired mode amplitudes which are given by the self-consistent field parameters appeared in the Hartree–Bogoliubov theory together with the additional self-consistent field parameter in the generalized Hartree–Bogoliubov mean-field Hamiltonian and by the parameter specifying the property of the [Formula: see text] group. Consequently, it turns out that the magnitudes of these amplitudes are governed by such parameters. Thus, it becomes possible to make clear a new aspect of such results. We construct the Killing potential in the coset space [Formula: see text] on the Kähler symmetric space which is equivalent to the generalized density matrix. We show another approach to the fermion mean-field Hamiltonian based on such a generalized density matrix. We derive an [Formula: see text] generalized Hartree–Bogoliubov mean-field Hamiltonian operator and a modified Hartree–Bogoliubov eigenvalue equation. We discuss on the mean-field theory related to the algebraic mean-field theory based on the generalized density matrix and the coadjoint orbit leading to the nondegenerate symplectic form.
In a slight different way from the previous one, we propose a modified non-Euclidean transformation on the [Formula: see text] Grassmannian which gives the projected [Formula: see text] Tamm–Dancoff equation. We derive a classical time-dependent (TD) [Formula: see text] Lagrangian which, through the Euler–Lagrange equation of motion for [Formula: see text] coset variables, brings another form of the previous extended-TD Hartree–Bogoliubov (HB) equation. The [Formula: see text] random phase approximation (RPA) is derived using Dyson representation for paired and unpaired operators. In the [Formula: see text] HB case, one boson and two boson excited states are realized. We, however, stress non-existence of a higher RPA vacuum. An integrable system is given by a geometrical concept of zero-curvature, i.e. integrability condition of connection on the corresponding Lie group. From the group theoretical viewpoint, we show the existence of a symplectic two-form [Formula: see text].
An induced representation of an SO(2N + 1) group has been obtained from a group extension of the SO(2N) Bogoliubov transformation for fermions to a new canonical transformation group. Embedding the SO(2N + 1) group into an SO(2N + 2) group and using the SO(2N + 2)/U(N + 1) coset variables, we develop an extended time dependent Hartree–Bogoliubov (TDHB) theory in which paired and unpaired modes are treated in an equal manner. The extended TDHB theory applicable to both even and odd fermion systems is a time dependent self-consistent field (TDSCF) theory with the same level of the mean field approximation as the usual TDHB theory for even fermion systems. We start from the Hamiltonian of the fermion system which includes, however, the Lagrange multiplier terms to select the physical spinor subspace. The extended TDHB equation is derived from the classical Euler–Lagrange equation of motion for the SO(2N + 2)/U(N + 1) coset variables in the TDSCF. The final form of the extended TDHB equation can be expressed through the variables as the representatives of the paired mode and the unpaired mode. We introduce the quasi anti-commutation relation approximation for the fermion. The parameters included in the Lagrangian multiplier terms are determined under the quasi anti-commutation relation approximation.
Properties and implications of the SO(2N+1) regular representation of a fermion system, which is a representation on the SO(2N+1) group proposed recently by us, are studied. By using the independent variables of the SO(2N+1) group, a representation of fermion annihilation-creation and pair operators is obtained which is an extension of the Dyson representation to cover both paired and unpaired modes. The structures of the SO(2N+1) spinor space and the SO(2N+1) wave function are determined. An integral and a differential Schrödinger equation on the SO(2N+1) spinor space are derived which are applicable to both even and odd fermion systems. The structures of the symmetry projected SO(2N+1) wave function and Schrödinger operator are determined. It is shown that odd fermion systems can be treated with an analogous way as even fermion systems by using a special SO(2N+1) canonical transformation which is very similar to the Bogoliubov transformation but corresponds to an improper rotation in the O(2N) group.
