Interview with Amos F. Gordon
No full textAmos Gordon was a music teacher and musician in Birmingham. In this interview, he discusses Birmingham's unique musical heritage, explaining that Duke Ellington's first trumpet player and several members of Count Basie's band were from Birmingham. While living in Birmingham, he played in band called the Virba Cathedral band. They played in nearby areas for $10.00 per night. During the Depression, his music supported him. After graduating high school, he attended Alabama State then went on get his Master's at New York University. In 1939 he was hired at Tuttle Elementary School in Birmingham to teach band and Social Studies. He was drafted in 1943 and was assigned to Fort Benning, Georgia. He was discharged in 1946 and then went on to tour with various jazz musicians. He toured with Louis Armstrong, Lucky Millender and Andy Kirk. He discusses life on the road and goes on to say that he eventually got tired of and bored with traveling thousands of miles on a bus. Gordon describes Birmingham's music scene in the '30s and 40s: all the big bands would come here... Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Lucky Millender, Louis Armstrong... The bands were booked by black agents and played to all black audiences. He also describes the story behind the song, Tuxedo Junction, a song credited to Birmingham composer Erskine Hawkins. While teaching music in Birmingham, he would be given free tickets to shows sponsored by Birmingham News but was forced to sit in the balcony. Gordon also recounts Nat King Cole's visit to Birmingham's Boutwell auditorium in the 1960s; Cole was physically attacked by a white man from Anniston. Cole subsequently said he would never come back to Birmingham
Finite size effects and the supersymmetric sine-Gordon models
No full textWe propose nonlinear integral equations to describe the groundstate energy of the fractional supersymmetric sine-Gordon models. The equations encompass the N = 1 supersymmetric sine-Gordon model as well as the phi(id,id,adj) perturbation of the SU(2)(L) x SU(2)(K)/SU(2)(L+K) models at rational level K. A second set of equations is proposed for the groundstate energy of the N = 2 supersymmetric sine-Gordon model

The complex sine-Gordon model on a half line
No full textIn this thesis, we study the complex sine-Gordon model on a half line. The model in the bulk is an integrable (l+1) dimensional field theory which is U(1) gauge invariant and comprises a generalisation of the sine-Gordon theory. It accepts soliton and breather solutions. By introducing suitably selected boundary conditions we may consider the model on a half line. Through such conditions the model can be shown to remain integrable and various aspects of the boundary theory can be examined. The first chapter serves as a brief introduction to some basic concepts of integrability and soliton solutions. As an example of an integrable system with soliton solutions, the sine-Gordon model is presented both in the bulk and on a half line. These results will serve as a useful guide for the model at hand. The introduction finishes with a brief overview of the two methods that will be used on the fourth chapter in order to obtain the quantum spectrum of the boundary complex sine-Gordon model. In the second chapter the model is properly introduced along with a brief literature review. Different realisations of the model and their connexions are discussed. The vacuum of the theory is investigated. Soliton solutions are given and a discussion on the existence of breathers follows. Finally the collapse of breather solutions to single solitons is demonstrated and the chapter concludes with a different approach to the breather problem. In the third chapter, we construct the lowest conserved currents and through them we find suitable boundary conditions that allow for their conservation in the presence of a boundary. The boundary term is added to the Lagrangian and the vacuum is reexamined in the half line case. The reflection process of solitons from the boundary is studied and the time-delay is calculated. Finally we address the existence of boundary-bound states. In the fourth chapter we study the quantum complex sine-Gordon model. We begin with a brief overview of the theory in the bulk where the semi-classical spectrum and an exact S'-matrix are presented. Following that we use the stationary phase method to derive the semi-classical spectrum of boundary bound states. The bootstrap method is used as an alternative approach to obtain the same spectrum. The results are discussed and compared. The final chapter consists of a general discussion on open questions and problems of the model, and some proposals for further research
