Abstract A coupled quasiparticle-oscillator system is considered for an arbitrary number of excitons. The exciton dynamics is described in terms of the second quantization (i.e. by means the bosonic operators). As a consequence a radius of a Bloch sphere is obtained different to the previous results. Some integrals of motion are obtained that allowed to reduce the system of equations of motion to a single nonlinear ordinary differential equation of the fourth order. This equation contains the energy of the system as a parameter. The fixed points are found as a functions of the energy of the system, and its stability properties are investigated. It is demonstrated that a bifurcation is presented for the energies H < 1=2p. An asymptotic quasiclassical solution around fixed point for the case H > 1=2p is obtained. The solutions around other stable fixed points can be obtained analogously. The expression for the evolution operator of the quasiparticle-oscillator system is obtained as a functional on the classical solutions. Ó 2002 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.

1. Introduction The correspondence between classical nonlinear systems on one side and their fully quantized counterparts on the other has been intensively investigated in the last decade (see [1,2,4–7]). One step quantization of a given system is sometimes complicated. As a rule such systems are divided into interacting subsystems. Then a mixed description is applied, in which one of the subsystems is considered classical and the other is treated in a quantum context. This quantization is the basic idea on which the Born–Oppenheimer approximation [3], used in many situations, is based. For nonadiabatic coupled systems this approximation must be complemented into a rigorous quantum description. The nonlinearities generated in this case can give rise to nonintegrability and chaos [4], and the problem of the quantumclassical correspondence arises for the dynamical properties of the mixed and fully quantized schemes. Schanz and Esser [3] stressed that chaos in the mixed description is produced by coupling one-dimensional integrable adiabatic reference states. In this paper the relation between the dynamical properties of the mixed and fully quantized descriptions for the model of a quasiparticle moving between two sites and coupled to an oscillator is considered. As previously reported [4] we also consider a coupled quasiparticle-oscillator system. In our model N excitons moves between two sites of the dimer composed by two molecular monomers. The excitons are coupled to intramolecular vibrations. The interest in the dynamical properties of the quasiparticle-oscillator system is based on the wide range of applications that includes a variety of phenomena in molecular and solid state physics, e.g. excitons in molecular

aggregates and coupled to vibrations [8]. The dynamic properties of this model in the mixed description have been previously investigated [4,6,7]. Analysing the dynamical properties of such systems the authors have focused on the coupling parameter ranges. It has been demonstrated the presence of a separatrix structure underlying the phase space for overcritical coupling, and of chaos developing from the hyperbolic point at the center of this structure [7]. The problem of relation between the dynamics in the mixed and fully quantum levels of description of the coupled quasiparticle-oscillator motion were considered by Schanz and Esser [3]. They focused on the adiabatic parameter range to justify best the mixed description. The aim of the present paper is to find some asymptotic quasiclassical solutions around the fixed elliptic points for the case of weak coupling, for the system of N excitons coupled to the molecular dimer. In Section 2 we specify the model in detail considering an arbitrary number of quasiparticles. In Section 3 using integrals of motion the system of equations of motion is reduced to the single ordinary differential equation that contains the energy of the system as a parameter. Further investigation is based completely in this equation. In Section 4 a problem of evolution operator for the oscillator-excitons system is considered and the quasiclassical approximation is justified. In Section 5 fixed points of our system are investigated focusing on the energy as a parameter. In the last section the solving scheme for the case H > 1=2p is justified and the solution for the quasiparticle-oscillator system is given in form of expansion with respect to the small adiabatic parameter r. 2. Model Let us consider a system of an arbitrary number of molecules with the Hamiltonian X1 X X b ¼ H ðp^n2 þ x2n q^2n Þ þ n aþ Vnm aþ n an þ n am ; 2 n n n;m

þ ¼ Vmn , Vnn ¼ 0, and the nth state energy n is a function of the coordinate qn . aþ where Vmn n and an are excitonic bosonic operators:

It is obvious that the exciton number X b ¼ N aþ n an n

A quantum evolution of any system we can consider in both Heisenberg or Schr€ odinger patterns. Let us work in the frame of first of them, i.e. the wave function jWi we’ll consider constant.

3. Integrals of motion There are two integrals of motion we will use to solve the system (16)–(19). One of them is offered to us by the Hamiltonian which with the transformations (15) obtains the following form: rffiffiffi 1 b_ 2 1 p b 2 b2 b H ¼ ð Q þ r Q Þ  x^ þ r Q^z: ð21Þ 2 2 2 Other integral can be obtained directly from Eqs. (16)–(18). We deduce that x^2 þ y^2 þ ^z2 ¼ const: Using the definition of the operators x^, y^ and ^z and the commutational relationships (2), it is easy to find b þN b 2; x^2 þ y^2 þ ^z2 ¼ 2 N

ð22Þ

b is the operator of number of excitons: where N b ¼ aþ a2 þ aþ a1 : N 2 1 Let us consider the system (16)–(19). From the integral (21) we immediately obtain pffiffiffiffiffi b_ 2 þ r2 Q b  2H b 2 Þ þ 2pr^z Q b; x^ ¼ ð Q and from Eq. (19) sffiffiffi 1 2 b € b Þ: ð Q þ r2 Q ^z ¼  r p Substituting (24) into (17) and taking into account Eq. (18) we arrive at the following equation pffiffiffiffiffi _ 2 pffiffiffiffiffi €^z þ ^z ¼  2prf Q b Q b 2  2H b g: b þ r2 Q b 3 þ 2pr^z Q bQ

ð23Þ

ð24Þ

ð25Þ

ð26Þ

Eqs. (25) and (26) can be reduced to the following single nonlinear equation of the fourth order: € € b 2 b_ 2 b { b b ¼ r2 pð2 Q b b 3 Þ: b pÞ Q þ r2 ð1 þ 2 H Q  Q Q þ r2 Q b þ ð1 þ r2 Þ Q Q

The stationary properties of the system brings the stationary Schr€ odinger equation: b jCi ¼ EjCi; H where, for example, in the representation jn; mi ¼ jni  jmi, where n is the number of excitons in one of the molecules and m is the oscillator state, the Hamiltonian matrix elements have the form:   pffiffiffiffiffi pffiffiffiffi pffiffiffi rp b jn0 ; m0 i ¼ r m þ 1 dðm  m0 Þdðn  n0 Þ þ i hn; mj H ðN  2nÞð m0 dðm  m0 þ 1Þ  mdðm  m0  1ÞÞdðn  n0 Þ 2 2 ffi 1 pffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi 1 pffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi0ffi ð28Þ  ðN  n0 Þndðn  n0  1Þ  ðN  nÞn dðn  n0 þ 1Þ: 2 2

4. Quasiclassical approximation Let us consider a problem of evolution operator for the oscillator-exciton system. The Hamilton in terms of canonical variables has the form: rffiffiffi 1 p b 2 b 2 Þ  1 ð^ b ¼ 1 ð Pb 2 þ r2 Q H p2 p^1 þ q^2 q^1 Þ þ r Q ðp^2 þ q^22  p^12  q^21 Þ: ð29Þ 2 2 2 2

To pass from the Hamiltonian (8) to the form (29) we should make the following transformation 1 q1;2 Þ; aþ p1;2 þ i^ 1;2 ¼ pffiffiffi ð^ 2

1 a1;2 ¼ pffiffiffi ðp^1;2 þ i^ q1;2 Þ: 2

ð30Þ

The evolution operator matrix elements are found in the following form: ( )  3N =2 NY 1 Z N 1 hN dQk i X N i3p N 2p b 4 pffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi dq1k dq2k exp Lðqk ; q_ k ÞDtk hqj U ðt  t0 Þjq0 i  lim 2 e N !1 t  t0 h k¼0  1 þ 2pr2 Q2k k¼0  Z t  Z Y i ¼ N1 ðt  t0 Þ D3 ½qðtÞ exp Lðq; q_ Þ ds h t0 t

where we denoted dQðtÞ D3 ½qðtÞ ¼ pffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi dq1 ðtÞ dq2 ðtaÞ; 1 þ 2pr2 Q2 ðtÞ

ð32Þ

and the classical Lagrangian has the form rffiffiffi pffiffiffiffiffi 2prQ 1 2q_ 1 q_ 2 1 1 p 2 2 _ _ q rQðq22  q21 Þ: Lðq; q_ Þ ¼ ðQ_ 2  r2 Q2 Þ þ ð q  q Þ   q þ 1 2 2 1 þ 2pr2 Q2 1 2 2 2 1 þ 2pr2 Q2 2

ð33Þ

The continual integral (31) has a nontrivial measure (32). Let us set pffiffiffiffiffi 1 Q ¼ pffiffiffiffiffi shð 2prq3 Þ; 2pr

ð34Þ

then dQ dq3 ¼ pffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi : 1 þ 2pr2 Q2 In terms of new variable the integral (31) obtains the following form  Z t  Z Y i b ðt  t0 Þjq0 i ¼ N1 hqj U dq1 ðtÞ dq2 ðtÞ dq3 ðtÞ exp Lðqi ; q_ i Þ ds ; h t0  t

According to the Feynman’s theory the evolution operator (35) is a functional on the classical solutions. There is a classical action functional in the exponent in the formula (35), that can be expanded around classical solution into the series by the following way: Z t Att0 ¼ Lðq; q_ Þ ds; ð37Þ t0

We can also find other terms of the expansion (41) reaching a better accordance with the quantum dynamics of the system.

5. Fixed points and stability problem We consider a coupled oscillator-quasiparticles problem in quasiclassical approximation treating the Eq. (27) as a classical. So we have the following nonlinear equation: v € þ r2 ð1 þ 2HpÞQ ¼ r2 pð2Q2 Q €  QQ_ 2 þ r2 Q3 Þ; Q þ ð1 þ r2 ÞQ

ð42Þ

where the adiabatic parameter r is small (r  1). Setting all the derivatives in Eq. (42) to zero we obtain the following stationary equation r2 ð1 þ 2HpÞQ ¼ r4 pQ3 : Fixed points are represented by three solutions of this equation Q ¼ 0; Q2 ¼

1 þ 2Hp : r2 p

ð43Þ ð44Þ

According to the magnitude of energy H the fixed points can be classified into two groups. 5.1. Case 1 þ 2Hp > 0 There exist three different cases to consider. First of them is the situation described by the following inequality 1 þ 2Hp > 0:

ð45Þ

For this case Eq. (44) has not real solutions, therefore there is only one fixed point Q ¼ 0. The stability property of this point can be obtained from a homogeneous equation. The homogeneous equation results in the following characteristical equation (we substitute eixt ): x4  ð1 þ r2 Þx2 þ r2 ð1 þ 2HpÞ ¼ 0:

ð46Þ

All the solutions of Eq. (46) are real x1 ¼ ð1  r2 HpÞ þ Oðr4 Þ; pffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi x2 ¼ r 1 þ 2Hp þ Oðr3 Þ:

ð47Þ

So the fixed point Q ¼ 0 is stable (stable elliptic). 5.2. Case 1 þ 2Hp < 0 Another case is when the energy magnitude satisfies the inequality 1 þ 2Hp < 0:

ð48Þ

L.S. Kuzmenkov et al. / Chaos, Solitons and Fractals 15 (2003) 597–610

603

In this situation Eq. (42) can be rewritten in the following form {

€  r2 j1 þ 2HpjQ ¼ r2 pð2Q2 Q €  QQ_ 2 þ r2 Q3 Þ: Q þ ð1 þ r2 ÞQ

ð49Þ

The bifurcation has occurred, and Eq. (49) has three fixed points Q ¼ 0; sffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi 1 j1 þ 2Hpj Q ¼

: r p

ð50Þ ð51Þ

The first of them (Q ¼ 0) leads to the following characteristical equation (we substitute eixt ) x4  ð1 þ r2 Þx2  r2 j1 þ 2Hpj ¼ 0

ð52Þ

which has the following solutions x21 ¼ 1 þ r2 ð1 þ j1 þ 2HpjÞ þ Oðr4 Þ; x22 ¼ r2 j1 þ 2Hpj þ Oðr4 Þ: From (53) we obtain   r2 x1  1 þ ð1 þ j1 þ 2HpjÞ ; 2 pffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi x2  ir j1 þ 2Hpj:

ð53Þ

ð54Þ

Because of the frequency x2 in Eq. (54) obtains imaginary values the fixed point Q ¼ 0 is unstable hyperbolic. To investigate the stability properties of the fixed points (51) we have to pass to displaced variables qðtÞ by the following transformation QðtÞ ¼ Q þ qðtÞ:

ð55Þ

Substituting this form into Eq. (49) and taking into account (51) we arrive at the following two equations: pffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi { q þ ð1 þ 2j1 þ 2Hpj þ r2 Þ€q þ 3r2 j1 þ 2Hpjq ¼ r pj1 þ 2Hpjf4q€ q  qq_ 2 þ r2 q3 g: q  q_ 2 þ 3r2 q2 g  r2 pf2q2 € ð56Þ It is easy to find from Eq. (56) that the fixed points Q are stable. Equating to zero the nonlinear part of Eq. (56) we obtain a respective characteristical equation which has the following form x4  ð1 þ 2j1 þ 2Hpj þ r2 Þx2 þ 3r2 j1 þ 2Hpjq ¼ 0: All its solutions are real numbers   3 j1 þ 2Hpj x21  1 þ 2j1 þ 2Hpj þ r2 1  ; 2 1 þ 2j1 þ 2Hpj 3 j1 þ 2Hpj x22 ¼ r2 : 2 1 þ 2j1 þ 2Hpj

ð57Þ

ð58Þ

Therefore the fixed points Q of Eq. (49) (q ¼ 0 for Eq. (56) respectively) are stable elliptic. 5.3. Case 1 þ 2Hp ¼ 0 The case 1 þ 2Hp ¼ 0 leads to the following differential equation { € ¼ r2 pð2Q2 Q €  QQ_ 2 þ r2 Q3 Þ: Q þ ð1 þ r2 ÞQ

The point Q ¼ 0 for this case is unstable hyperbolic.

6. Asymptotic solution for the case H > 1=2p Let us consider Eq. (42) for the energy magnitudes H >

1 : 2p

As we have seen for this case Eq. (42) has only one fixed point Q ¼ 0. We will search the solution of Eq. (42) around this fixed point. We have find that the homogeneous equation has two positive frequencies x1 and x2 (54). Moreover, one of the frequencies is far above the other frequency: x2  x1 :

ð60Þ

Therefore the solution of the homogeneous equation is a superposition of two slowly and quickly oscillating functions with the frequencies x1 and x2 : 1 1 Qh ðtÞ ¼ ðAeix2 t þ A eix2 t Þ þ ðaeix1 t þ a eix1 t Þ: 2 2 It is natural to search the solution of the nonlinear equation (42) in the following quasiperiodical form: X QðtÞ ¼ Qðn1 ; n2 Þeiðn1 x1 þn2 x2 Þt ; Qðn1 ; n2 Þ ¼ Q ðn1 ; n2 Þ;

ð61Þ

ð62Þ

n1 ;n2

where x2  r, and, in general, the frequencies x1 and x2 must have the form (54) of the expansion with respect to the small parameter r. The frequencies of the type n1 x1 þ n2 x2 appear in the solution due to the mixing of frequencies in the right hand side of Eq. (42). The terms of the expansion (54) and the coefficients Qðn1 ; n2 Þ in the formula (62) have to be found by setting to zero all the secularities that appear in the nonlinear part of Eq. (42). The solution (62) can be divided in two rapidly and slowly oscillating parts by the following way: QðtÞ ¼ Qq ðtÞ þ Qs ðtÞ;

ð63Þ

where Qq ðtÞ ¼ Qð1; 0Þeix1 t þ Q ð1; 0Þeix1 t þ

ð64Þ

Qs ðtÞ ¼

ð65Þ

Therefore a double derivative of Qq ðtÞ is of the same order that the function Qq ðtÞ: X % & € q ¼ x2 Qð1; 0Þeix1 t þ Q ð1; 0Þeix1 t  ðn1 x1 þ n2 x2 Þ2 Qðn1 ; n2 Þeiðn1 x1 þn2 x2 Þt ; Q 1 n1 ;n2 n1 ;n2 6¼0

€ q  Qq , and for the slow part we obtain i.e. Q € s  r2 Qs ¼ Oðr2 Þ: Q Substituting (63) into Eq. (19) one can find rffiffiffi rffiffiffi rffiffiffi € s þ r2 Qs Þ ¼ r pz þ Oðr2 Þ ) Q € q þ r2 Qq ¼ r pz  ðQ € q ¼ r pz þ Oðr2 Þ: Q 2 2 2 Because of the integral (23), z is of the order of 1 (or less) that results in that the high frequency part of the solution is of the order of the small parameter r, i.e. Qq  r. Thus, the quickly changing part of the solution of Eq. (42) should have the following form: X r aðn1 ; n2 Þeiðn1 x1 þn2 x2 Þt : ð66Þ Qq ðtÞ ¼ ðaeix1 t þ a eix1 t Þ þ r2 2 n1 ;n2 n1 ;n2 6¼0

In particular the amplitude a can be zero. In the second term in Eq. (66) we put small parameter r2 because these terms appear in the solution due to the small nonlinear part of Eq. (42).

L.S. Kuzmenkov et al. / Chaos, Solitons and Fractals 15 (2003) 597–610

605

There is another question we have to clarify before solving Eq. (42). One can observe from Eq. (42) that the third term in the left hand side of that equation has the same order (with respect to the small parameter r) that the nonlinearity in the right hand side. Therefore we have to investigate what contribution brings the right hand side of Eq. (42) in the low-frequency part of solution. To do this let us substitute (64) into Eq. (42) and average the equation over the small period T1 ¼ 2p=x1 . The low-frequency part of solution will not change dramatically and we obtain: {

€ qi þ Q € s þ r2 ð1 þ 2HpÞQs ¼ r2 pð2hQ2 Q € i  hQQ_ 2 iÞ þ Oðr4 Þ; hQ q i þ hQ

ð67Þ

where €q þ Q € s Þi ¼ OðrÞ € i ¼ hðQ2 þ 2Qq Qs þ Q2 ÞðQ hQ2 Q q s € s  r2 , Qq  r and Q € q  r, and analogously because Q hQQ_ 2 i ¼ hðQq þ Qs ÞðQ_ 2q þ 2Q_ q Q_ s þ Q_ 2s Þi ¼ OðrÞ: Taking into account the expansion (47), from Eq. (66) we find X { € q i ¼ x2 r2 2Hp r ðaeix1 t þ a eix1 t Þ þ r2 x2 hQ q þ Q 2pn2 ðn1 x1 þ n2 x2 Þ½ðn1 x1 þ n2 x2 Þ2  1aðn1 ; n2 Þeiðn1 x1 þn2 x2 Þt 1 2 x1 n1 ;n2 n1 6¼0

Equating the coefficients near the exponents with the same frequencies ðn1 x1 þ n2 x2 Þ one can find: ½ðn1 x1 þ n2 x2 Þ4  ð1 þ r2 Þðn1 x1 þ n2 x2 Þ2 þ r2 ð1 þ 2HpÞQðn1 ; n2 Þ X X dðn1  m1  l1  k1 Þdðn2  m2  l2  k2 Þ½2ðk1 x1 þ k2 x2 Þ2  ðl1 x1 þ l2 x2 Þðk1 x1 þ k2 x2 Þ  r2  ¼ r2 p m1 ;l1 ;k1 m2 ;l2 ;k2

Substituting (69) into (68) and equating all the terms with the same powers of the small parameter r, after some simple but labor consuming transformations one can find some infinite system of algebraic equations at the point ðn1 ; n2 Þ. ð0Þ Because x2 ¼ 0, the zero order perturbation equation takes the form: ð0Þ

From the first order perturbations one can deduce: ð0Þ

where we took into account that the solution with n2 ¼ 1 has to appear in the second iteration in Eq. (42). Substituting the solutions (72) and (74) into the second order iteration in Eq. (68) we obtain: ð1Þ

For to avoid the resonance at n1 ¼ 0 and n1 ¼ 1 we have to equate to zero the following two secular terms: ð1Þ

ð1Þ

að1Þ ðn2 Þðx1 þ n2 x2 Þ ¼ 0: We will not consider trivial cases. Therefore the solution of Eq. (77) has the form: pffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi ð1Þ x2 ¼ 1 þ 2Hp; 1 Að0Þ ðn2 Þ ¼ ðAdðn2  1Þ þ A dðn2 þ 1ÞÞ: 2

Both frequencies are contained in the solution of Eq. (42) in the following linear form ð1Þ

ð1Þ

n1 x1 þ n2 x2 ;

ð83Þ

where we have to put n1 ¼ 1 because the results (81) and (82) have been obtained just for the case n1 ¼ 1. Substituting ð1Þ ð1Þ ð1Þ from (81) x1 ¼ 0 and n2 ¼ 0 into the linear form (83) we obtain n1 x1 þ n2 x2 ¼ 0. The same result we obtain ð1Þ ð1Þ substituting into (83) x1 ¼ x2 and n2 ¼ 1, i.e. the results from (82). Therefore both cases (81) and (82) are identical. Let us use the result (81). So we can rewrite the solutions (72) and (74) in the following form: 1 Qð0Þ ðn1 ; n2 Þ ¼ dðn1 ÞðAdðn1  1Þ þ A dðn1 þ 1ÞÞ; 2

After setting to zero all the secular members in Eq. (76) we obtain: n21 ðn21  1ÞQð2Þ ðn1 ; n2 Þ ¼ 0:

The third iteration in Eq. (68), in terms of the results (75), (79), (81), (84), (85) and (87) is represented by the following equation:

Therefore without sacrifice of generality we can set lð2Þ ¼ 0, and substituting (92) into (87) we obtain: p Qð2Þ ðn1 ; n2 Þ ¼ Að2Þ ðn2 Þdðn1 Þ þ pffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi faA2 dðn1  1Þdðn2  2Þ þ ðaA2 Þ dðn1 þ 1Þdðn2 þ 2Þ 16 1 þ 2Hp  aA2 dðn1  1Þdðn2 þ 2Þ  a A2 dðn1 þ 1Þdðn2  2Þg: ð93Þ Thus, Eq.

It seems clear that for the dynamics of QðtÞ the frequency x2 is a basic and the contribution of the frequency x1 appears only as a correction with a correction factor r. On the contrary, for zðtÞ the frequency x1 is a basic and the frequency x2 appears in the correction of the order r. The expression (104)–(106) is an asymptotic solution of Eq. (42) for the case 1 þ 2Hp > 0. In the case 1 þ 2Hp < 0 we have to solve Eq. (56) that have the same form that Eq. (42). Therefore the method used to solve Eq. (42) for the case 1 þ 2Hp > 0 can be analogously applied to the case 1 þ 2HP < 0. The behaviour of the quantities xðtÞ and yðtÞ we can obtain from Eqs. (18) and (24). Substituting the expressions for xðtÞ, yðtÞ and the formula (107) to Eq. (22) we have to obtain the connection of the parameters A, a, H and p with the integral of motion x2 þ y 2 þ z2 . The solution (104) has been found with the assumption that QðtÞ has a classical nature. The method we have applied is a Krylov-Bogolubov method extended for the case of two frequencies x1 and x2 , where one of the frequencies is far above the other frequency. The solution we have obtained can be substituted into the functional expansion (38) of the action, taking into account the transformation (34). The expansion obtained this way can be used to evaluate the evolution operator such it is performed in Eqs. (40) and (41). The behaviour of the quantities QðtÞ and zðtÞ demonstrates good accordance with the numerical results performed by Schanz and Esser [4].
