We present a theoretical study of Bose–Einstein condensation in highly anisotropic harmonic traps. The bosons are considered to be moving in an optical lattice in an overall anisotropic harmonic confining potential. We find that two-step condensation occurs for lattice bosons at much reduced...

This paper presents a concise review of the optimisation models for the preventive repair/replacement/inspection of components/assemblies/subsystems with the aim of critically examining their prospects as well as limitations in implementation in heavy process industries. The survey covers models...

In this paper, we study non-interacting bosons in a quasi-disordered one-dimensional optical lattice in a harmonic potential. We consider the case of deterministic quasi-disorder produced by an Aubry–André potential. Using exact diagonalization, we investigate both the zero temperature and...

We present a theoretical study of the effects of the next-nearest-neighbor (NNN) hopping (t2) on the properties of non-interacting bosons in optical lattices in the presence of an Aubry–André quasi-disorder. First we investigate, employing exact diagonalization, the effects of t2 on the...

Purpose: This paper aims to test for spatial convergence in financial inclusion across major Indian states and union territories. Design/methodology/approach: After initially building an Index of Financial Inclusion (IFI) for major Indian states between 2003 and 2016, exploratory spatial data...
