A Jacobi equation on the coset manifold SO(2N)/U(N) and the quasi-particle RPA equation

Description

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. (author)
