    We prove that the Schwarzschild black hole is linearly stable under electromagnetic and gravitational perturbations. Our method is to show that for spin $s=1$ or $s=2$, solutions of the Teukolsky equation with smooth, compactly supported initial data outside the event horizon, decay in $L^\infty_{loc}$.

    We report on a uniform comparative analysis of the fundamental parameters of early-type galaxies at z~1 down to a well defined magnitude limit (M_B\leq -20.0 in the field and M_B\leq -20.5 in the clusters). The changes in the M/L_B ratio from z~1 to today are larger for lower mass galaxies in all environments, and are similar in the field and in the clusters

  3. Hebing Rui, Mei Si

    In this paper, we compute the discriminant of the Gram matrix associated to each cell module of the Brauer algebra $\cba{n}$. Theoretically, we know when a cell module of $\cba{n}$ is equal to its simple head. This gives a solution of this long standing problem.

    Starting with the first detection of an afterglow from a short-duration hard-spectrum gamma-ray burst (SHB) by Swift last year, a growing body of evidence has suggested that SHBs are associated with an older and lower-redshift galactic population than long-soft GRBs and, in a few cases, with large (>~ 10 kpc) projected offsets from the centers of their putat

  5. Hebing Rui, Mei Si

    In this paper, we compute the Gram determinants associated to each cell module of the Birman-Wenzl algebras. As a by-product, we give the necessary and sufficient condition for semisimple Birman-Wenzl algebras over an arbitrary field.

    We make a detailed study of the moduli space of winding number two (k=2) axially symmetric vortices (or equivalently, of co-axial composite of two fundamental vortices), occurring in U(2) gauge theory with two flavors in the Higgs phase, recently discussed by Hashimoto-Tong (hep-th/0506022) and Auzzi-Shifman-Yung (hep-th/0511150). We find that it is a weight

  7. L. Petridis, E. M. Terentjev

    We present a theoretical study of the equilibrium ordering in a 3D XY nematic system with quenched random disorder. Within this model, treated with the replica trick and Gaussian variational method, the correlation length is obtained as a function of the local nematic order parameter and the effective disorder strength. These results clarify what happens in

    We study theoretically and experimentally the response of a microwave superconducting stripline resonator, integrated with a microbridge, to a monochromatic injected signal. We find that there is a certain range of driving parameters, in which a novel nonlinear phenomenon immerges, and self-sustained modulation of the reflected power off the resonator is gen

  9. Eran Segev, Baleegh Abdo, Oleg Shtempluck, Eyal Buks

    We study thermal instability in a driven superconducting NbN resonator integrated with a microbridge. A monochromatic input drive is injected into the resonator and the response is measured as a function of the frequency and amplitude of the drive. Inside a certain zone in the frequency-amplitude plane the system has no steady state, and consequently self-su

    We construct knots in S^3 with Heegaard splittings of arbitrarily high distance, in any genus. As an application, for any positive integers t and b we find a tunnel number t knot in the three-sphere which has no (t,b)-decomposition.

    We present a quantum model of two-level atoms localized in a 3D lattice, based on the Hopfield theory of exciton polaritons. In addition to a polaritonic gap at the exciton energy, a photonic bandgap opens up at the Brillouin zone boundary. Upon tuning the lattice period or angle of incidence to match the photonic gap with the exciton energy, one obtains a c

    The sensitivity parameter is widely used in measuring the severity of fine-tuning, while many examples show it doesn't work under certain circumstances. The validity of the sensitivity is in question. We argue that the dimensional effect is the reason why it fails in those scenarios. To guarantee the sensitivity parameter correctly reflects the severity

    The goal of this paper is to show there is a single orbit of the c.e. sets with inclusion, $\mathcal{E}$, such that the question of membership in this orbit is $Σ^1_1$-complete. This result and proof have a number of nice corollaries: The Scott rank of $\mathcal{E}$ is $ω^{CK}_1+1; Not all orbits are elementarily definable; There is no arithmetic description

    Materials which can undergo slow diffusive transformations as well as fast displacive transformations are studied using the phase-field method. The model captures the essential features of the time-temperature-transformation (TTT) diagrams, continuous cooling transformation (CCT) diagrams, and microstructure formation of these alloys. In some materials syste

    Two basic properties of the set of all probability measures on the set of quantum states and their corollaries are considered. Several applications of these properties to analysis of functional constructions widely used in quantum information theory are discussed.

    Using a variety of thermodynamic measurements made in magnetic fields, we show evidence that the diffusionless transition (DT) in many shape-memory alloys is related to significant changes in the electronic structure. We investigate three alloys that show the shape-memory effect (In-24 at.% Tl, AuZn, and U-26 at.% Nb). We observe that the DT is significantly

    For an eigenfunction of the Laplacian on a hyperbolic Riemann surface, the coefficients of the Fourier expansion are described as intertwining functionals. All intertwiners are classified. A refined growth estimate for the coefficients is given and a summation formula is proved.

    We consider bulk fields coupled to the graviton in a Lorentz violating fashion. We expect that the overly tested Lorentz symmetry might set constraints on the induced Lorentz violation in the brane, and hence on the dynamics of the interaction of bulk fields on the brane. We also use the requirement for Lorentz symmetry to constrain the cosmological constant

    This is the report of Heavy Ion Physics and Quark-Gluon Plasma at WHEPP-09 which was part of Working Group-4. Discussion and work on some aspects of Quark-Gluon Plasma believed to have created in heavy-ion collisions and in early universe are reported.

    The STAR collaboration at RHIC reports measurements of the inclusive yield of non-photonic electrons, which arise dominantly from semi-leptonic decays of heavy flavor mesons, over a broad range of transverse momenta ($1.2 < \pt < 10$ \gevc) in \pp, \dAu, and \AuAu collisions at \sqrtsNN = 200 GeV. The non-photonic electron yield exhibits unexpectedly large s

    We revisit anthropic arguments purporting to explain the measured value of the cosmological constant. We argue that different ways of assigning probabilities to candidate universes lead to totally different anthropic predictions. As an explicit example, we show that weighting different universes by the total number of possible observations leads to an extrem

    Using the variational cluster approach (VCA), we study the transition from the antiferromagnetic to the superconducting phase of the two-dimensional Hubbard model at zero temperature. Our calculations are based on a new method to evaluate the VCA grand potential which employs a modified Lanczos algorithm and avoids integrations over the real or imaginary fre

    Genus 2 mutation is the process of cutting a 3-manifold along an embedded closed genus 2 surface, twisting by the hyper-elliptic involution, and gluing back. This paper compares genus 2 mutation with the better-known Conway mutation in the context of knots in the 3-sphere. Despite the fact that any Conway mutation can be achieved by a sequence of at most two

    An inquiry on a possible local origin for the Microwave Background Radiation is made. Thermal MBR photons are contained in a system called {\it magnetic bottle} which is due to Earth magnetic field and solar wind particles, mostly electrons. Observational tests are anticipated.

    We present the results of numerical experiments, in which we study how the asphericities induced by the growth of the standing accretion shock instability (SASI) produce the gravitational waveforms in the postbounce phase of core-collapse supernovae. To obtain the neutrino-driven explosions, we parameterize the neutrino fluxes emitted from the central proton

    We study the evolution of scalar curvature perturbations in a brane-world inflation model in a 5D Anti-de Sitter spacetime. The inflaton perturbations are confined to a 4D brane but they are coupled to the 5D bulk metric perturbations. We numerically solve full coupled equations for the inflaton perturbations and the 5D metric perturbations using Hawkins-Lid

    We study the limiting behavior of $\Tr U^{k(n)}$, where $U$ is a $n\times n$ random unitary matrix and $k(n)$ is a natural number that may vary with $n$ in an arbitrary way. Our analysis is based on the connection with Toeplitz determinants. The central observation of this paper is a strong Szegö limit theorem for Toeplitz determinants associated to symbols

    The electron-phonon interaction in thin Ag-nanofilms epitaxially grown on Cu(111) is investigated by temperature-dependent and angle-resolved photoemission from silver quantum-well states. Clear oscillations in the electron-phonon coupling parameter as a function of the silver film thickness are observed. Different from other thin film systems where quantum

    We consider the standard first passage percolation in $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ for $d\geq 2$ and we denote by $ϕ_{n^{d-1},h(n)}$ the maximal flow through the cylinder $]0,n]^{d-1} \times ]0,h(n)]$ from its bottom to its top. Kesten proved a law of large numbers for the maximal flow in dimension three: under some assumptions, $ϕ_{n^{d-1},h(n)} / n^{d-1}$ converges to

  31. L. Heaney, J. Anders, V. Vedral

    In this paper we discuss the entanglement properties of a thermal non-relativistic free bosonic field. We demonstrate how to formally construct spatial modes in order to use a continuous variable separability criterion and show that the construction of the modes plays a significant role in the way the entanglement manifests itself. For instance the presence

    In this paper we establish a general algorithmic framework between bin packing and strip packing, with which we achieve the same asymptotic bounds by applying bin packing algorithms to strip packing. More precisely we obtain the following results: (1) Any offline bin packing algorithm can be applied to strip packing maintaining the same asymptotic worst-case

    We demonstrate passive feedback cooling of a mechanical resonator based on radiation pressure forces and assisted by photothermal forces in a high-finesse optical cavity. The resonator is a free-standing high-reflectance micro-mirror (of mass m=400ng and mechanical quality factor Q=10^4) that is used as back-mirror in a detuned Fabry-Perot cavity of optical

    We present a combined experimental and numerical study of the equilibrium cluster formation in globular protein solutions under no-added salt conditions. We show that a cluster phase emerges as a result of a competition between a long-range screened Coulomb repulsion and a short-range attraction. A simple effective potential, in which only depth and width of

    In this paper, we study online multidimensional bin packing problem when all items are hypercubes. Based on the techniques in one dimensional bin packing algorithm Super Harmonic by Seiden, we give a framework for online hypercube packing problem and obtain new upper bounds of asymptotic competitive ratios. For square packing, we get an upper bound of 2.1439

    We construct the fusion operators in the generalized $τ^{(2)}$-model using the fused $L$-operators, and verify the fusion relations with the truncation identity. The algebraic Bethe ansatz discussion is conducted on two special classes of $τ^{(2)}$ which include the superintegrable chiral Potts model. We then perform the parallel discussion on the XXZ spin c

  37. Marie Théret

    We consider the standard first passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$: with each edge of the lattice we associate a random capacity. We are interested in the maximal flow through a cylinder in this graph. Under some assumptions Kesten proved in 1987 a law of large numbers for the rescaled flow. Chayes and Chayes established that the large deviations far awa

    We present the results from adaptive optics (AO) assisted imaging in the Ks band of an area of 15 arcmin^2 for SWAN (Survey of a Wide Area with NACO). We derive the high resolution near-IR morphology of ~400 galaxies up to Ks~23.5 in the first 21 SWAN fields around bright guide stars, carefully taking into account the survey selection effects and using an ac

  39. V. Tripathi, M. P. Kennett

    We discuss theoretically how electrons confined to two dimensions in a delta-doped heterostructure can arrange themselves in a droplet-like spatial distribution due to disorder and screening effects when their density is low. We apply this droplet picture to magnetotransport and derive the expected dependence on electron density of several quantities relevan

    By a suitable transformation, we present the $(n+1)$-dimensional charged rotating solutions of Gauss-Bonnet gravity with a complete set of allowed rotation parameters which are real in the whole spacetime. We show that these charged rotating solutions present black hole solutions with two inner and outer event horizons, extreme black holes or naked singulari

  41. Paul Davis

    In this paper, we show that some five-dimensional rotating black hole solutions of both gauged and ungauged supergravity, with independent rotation parameters and three charges admit separable solutions to the massless Hamilton-Jacobi and Klein-Gordon equations. This allows us to write down a conformal Killing tensor for the spacetime. Conformal Killing tens

    A new approach is described to the evaluation of the S-matrix in three-dimensional atom-diatom reactive quantum scattering theory. The theory is developed based on natural collision coordinates where progress along the reaction coordinate can be viewed as fulfilling the same role as time in a time-dependent formulation. By writing the full wavefunction in co

    In quantum groups coproducts of Lie-algebras are twisted in terms of generators of the corresponding universal enveloping algebra. If representations are considered, twists also serve as starproducts that accordingly quantize representation spaces. In physics, requirements turn out to be the other way around. Physics comes up with noncommutative spaces in te

    The violation of the Noether relation between symmetries and charges is reduced to the time dependence of the charge associated to a conserved current. For the U(1) gauge symmetry a non-perturbative control of the charge commutators is obtained by an analysis of the Coulomb charged fields. From this, in the unbroken case we obtain a correct expression for th

    An approach by which to analyze the performance of the code division multiple access (CDMA) scheme, which is a core technology used in modern wireless communication systems, is provided. The approach characterizes the objective system by the eigenvalue spectrum of a cross-correlation matrix composed of signature sequences used in CDMA communication, which en

    Leptophobic Z^\prime gauge boson appears naturally in many grand unified theories, such as flipped SU(5) or string-inspired E_6 models. This elusive particle easily escapes the direct/indirect detections because it does not couple to charged leptons. However, it can generate flavor changing neutral current at tree level. In this letter, we show that the rece

    We report the use of an optical interference holographic setup with a five-beam configuration, consisting of four side beams and one central beam from the same half space, to fabricate woodpile and diamond structures for the use as photonic bandgap materials in which electromagnetic waves are forbidden in the bandgap. By exploiting the advantage of the binar

    Schrodinger equation for a charged particle interacting with the plane wave electromagnetic field is solved exactly. The exact analytic solution and the perturbative solution up to second order are compared.

    A static wormhole solution for gravity in vacuum is found for odd dimensions greater than four. In five dimensions the gravitational theory considered is described by the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet action where the coupling of the quadratic term is fixed in terms of the cosmological constant. In higher dimensions d=2n+1, the theory corresponds to a particular cas

    We present a comprehensive description of the theory and practice of opacity calculations from the infrared to the ultraviolet needed to generate models of the atmospheres of brown dwarfs and extrasolar giant planets. Methods for using existing line lists and spectroscopic databases in disparate formats are presented and plots of the resulting absorptive opa

    Rigorous bounds are established for the expansion coefficients governing the shape of semileptonic K-->pi form factors. The constraints enforced by experimental data from tau-->K pi nu eliminate uncertainties associated with model parameterizations in the determination of |V_us|. The results support the validity of a powerful expansion that can be applied to

    A theory is presented of quantum criticality in open (coupled to reservoirs) itinerant electron magnets, with nonequilibrium drive provided by current flow across the system. Both departures from equilibrium at conventional (equilibrium) quantum critical points and the physics of phase transitions induced by the nonequilibrium drive are treated. Nonequilibri

    We propose a method to produce a definite number of ground-state atoms by adiabatic reduction of the depth of a potential well that confines a degenerate Bose gas with repulsive interactions. Using a variety of methods, we map out the maximum number of particles that can be supported by the well as a function of the well depth and interaction strength, cover

    We consider the propagation of polarized photons in optical fibers under the action of randomly generated noise. In such situation, the change in time of the photon polarization can be described by a quantum dynamical semigroup. We show that the hierarchy among the decay constants of the polarization density matrix elements as prescribed by complete positivi

    We investigate the quantum capacity of noisy quantum channels which can be represented by coupling a system to an effectively small environment. A capacity formula is derived for all cases where both system and environment are two-dimensional--including all extremal qubit channels. Similarly, for channels acting on higher dimensional systems we show that the

    In this work,We investigate the problem of secretly broadcasting of three-qubit entangled state between two distant partners. The interesting feature of this problem is that starting from two particle entangled state shared between two distant partners we find that the action of local cloner on the qubits and the measurement on the machine state vector gener

    The quantum multicomputer consists of a large number of small nodes and a qubus interconnect for creating entangled state between the nodes. The primary metric chosen is the performance of such a system on Shor&#39;s algorithm for factoring large numbers: specifically, the quantum modular exponentiation step that is the computational bottleneck.

    In 1927 Heisenberg discovered that the ``more precisely the position is determined, the less precisely the momentum is known in this instant, and vice versa&#39;&#39;. Four years later Gödel showed that a finitely specified, consistent formal system which is large enough to include arithmetic is incomplete. As both results express some kind of impossibility

    We report on the retrieval of the last missing papers of the &#34;Senatore folder&#34;, given by Majorana to one student of his in Naples in 1938, just before his disappearance. The mentioned manuscript is conserved at the Domus Galilaeana in Pisa (Italy), and was written in French, probably for a conference in Leningrad (or in Kharkov) in 1933 (or in 1934).

    The statistical distances between countries, calculated for various moving average time windows, are mapped into the ultrametric subdominant space as in classical Minimal Spanning Tree methods.

    We use the Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA) and the Grassberger-Proccacia analysis (GP) methods in order to study language characteristics. Despite that we construct our signals using only word lengths or word frequencies, excluding in this way huge amount of information from language, the application of Grassberger- Proccacia (GP) analysis indicates tha

    Attempts to explain the refraction of light in dispersive media in terms of a photon or &#34;corpuscular&#34; model have heretofore been unable to account for the observed decrease in the speed of light as it passes from air into a region of higher refractive index n such as water or glass. In the present work it is argued on the basis of the quantum mechani

Cu K-alpha photon emission obtained with second harmonic laser pulse is more intense than the case of fundamental laser pulse. The Cu K-alpha conversion efficiency shows strong de

    The field equations of general relativity are shown to derive from the existence of a limit force or of a limit power in nature. The limits have the value of c^4/4G and c^5/4G. The proof makes use of a result by Jacobson. All known experimental data is consistent with the limits. Applied to the universe, the limits predict its darkness at night and the obser

    Various experiments have found a boundary slip in hydrophobic microchannel flows, but a consistent understanding of the results is still lacking. While Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations cannot reach the low shear rates and large system sizes of the experiments, it is often impossible to resolve the needed details with macroscopic approaches. We model the i

    We suggest that the $γp \to ϕηp$ reaction cross section, in the kinematics where the $ηp$ invariant mass in the final state lies between the threshold value (m$_p$+m$_η$) and the N*(1535) resonance mass, is largely determined by the $ηN$ scattering amplitude close to threshold. The initial photon energy is chosen in the range $4 < E_γ^{Lab} < 5$ GeV, in orde

    Recently $q$-breathers - time-periodic solutions which localize in the space of normal modes and maximize the energy density for some mode vector $q_0$ - were obtained for finite nonlinear lattices. We scale these solutions together with the size of the system to arbitrarily large lattices. We generalize previously obtained analytical estimates of the locali

    We experimentally study the synchronization of two chaotic electronic circuits whose dynamics is relayed by a third parameter-matched circuit, to which they are coupled bidirectionally in a linear chain configuration. In a wide range of operating parameters, this setup leads to synchronization between the outer circuits, while the relaying element remains un

    The dielectric permittivity and resistivity have been measured simultaneously as a function of magnetic field in Pr1-xCaxMnO3 crystals with different doping. A huge increase of dielectric permittivity was detected near percolation threshold. The dielectric and conductive properties are found to be mutually correlated throughout insulator to metal transition

    We define generic ensembles of infinite trees. These are limits as $N\to\infty$ of ensembles of finite trees of fixed size $N$, defined in terms of a set of branching weights. Among these ensembles are those supported on trees with vertices of a uniformly bounded order. The associated probability measures are supported on trees with a single spine and Hausdo

    We model the static behavior of point Josephson junctions in a micro strip line using a 1D linear differential equation with delta distributed sine non-linearities. We analyze the maximum current $γ_{max}$ crossing the micro strip for a given magnetic field $H$. In particular we establish its periodicity and analyze how it is affected by the geometry, length

    We use the eigenfunction method to calculate the Clebsh-Gordan coefficients for the permutation group . This method is well-established by Jin-Quan Chen. Here we elaborate the detailed procedures for the pedagogical purpose. Due to the nature of the symmetry, one may get the degeneracy from the solution of eigenfunctions for given one class operator.

    A translation invariant Hamiltonian $H$ in the nonrelativistic quantum electrodynamics is studied. This Hamiltonian is decomposed with respect to the total momentum $\tot$: $$H=\int_{\BR} ^\oplus \fri(P) dP,$$ where the self-adjoint fiber Hamiltonian $\fri(P)$ is defined for arbitrary values of coupling constants. It is discussed a relationship between rotat

    A one dimensional system made up of a compressible fluid and several mechanical oscillators, coupled to the acoustic field in the fluid, is analyzed for different settings of the oscillators array. The dynamical models are formulated in terms of singular perturbations of the decoupled dynamics of the acoustic field and the mechanical oscillators. Detailed sp

    We describe a Cat-valued nerve of bicategories, which associates to every bicategory a simplicial object in Cat, called the 2-nerve. We define a 2-category NHom whose objects are bicategories and whose 1-cells are normal homomorphisms of bicategories, in such a way that the 2-nerve construction becomes a full embedding of NHom in the 2-category of simplicial

    In the first part, we prove that the number of $(1,β)$-BM relations is $3 \cdot 5 \cdot \ldots \cdot (2β+ 1)$, which was conjectured by Kimberley. In the second part, we construct two isomorphisms between certain $(2,2)$-BM groups. This completes the classification of $(2,2)$-BM groups initiated by Kimberley and Robertson.

    We introduce a notion of rank completion for bi-modules over a finite tracial von Neumann algebra. We show that the functor of rank completion is exact and that the category of complete modules is abelian with enough projective objects. This leads to interesting computations in the L^2-homology for tracial algebras. As an application, we also give a new proo

    Let $G$ be a reductive $p$-adic group. We prove that all supercuspidal representations of $G$ arise through Yu&#39;s construction subject to certain hypotheses on $k$ (depending on $G$). As a corollary, under the same hypotheses, we see that any supercuspidal representation is compactly induced from a representation of an open subgroup which is compact modul

    Let V be an even dimensional vector space with a non degenerate quadratic form. We denote by X the variety of maximal isotropic subspaces in V (in fact one of its two connected components). In this paper, we prove the irreducibility of the scheme of degree d morphism f:C->X as soon as d is bigger than 1/2dim(V)-1. When dim(V)=10 and d=6, this result was used

    To have an uniform estimate for the solutions of the scalar curvature equation perturbed by a non linear term, we give some minimal condition on the scalar curvature.

    We derive a mathematical model for eddy currents in two dimensional geometries where the conductors are thin domains. We assume that the current flows in the $x\_3$-direction and the inductors are domains with small diameters of order $O(ε)$. The model is derived by taking the limit $ε\to 0$. A convergence rate of $O(ε^α)$ with $0<α<1/2$ in the $L^2$--norm i

    In Cardaliaguet-Ley (2006) we have defined a viscosity solution for the gradient flow of the exterior Bernoulli free boundary problem. We prove here that the associated energy is non decreasing along the flow. This justifies the &#34;gradient flow&#34; approach for such kind of problem. The proof relies on the construction of a discrete gradient flow in the

    The construction of the universal ring of Witt vectors is related to Lazard&#39;s factorizations of free monoids by means of a noncommutative analogue. This is done by associating to a code a specialization of noncommutative symmetric functions.

    We give a simple description of the natural bijection between the set of FLOTW bipartitions and the set of Uglov bipartitions (which generalizes the set of Kleshchev bipartitions). These bipartitions, which label the crystal graphs of irreducible $\mathcal{U}\_v({\hat{\mathfrak{sl}}\_e})$-modules of level two, naturally appear in the context of the modular r

    Based on Spiridonov&#39;s analysis of elliptic generalizations of the Gauss hypergeometric function, we develop a common framework for 7-parameter families of generalized elliptic, hyperbolic and trigonometric univariate hypergeometric functions. In each case we derive the symmetries of the generalized hypergeometric function under the Weyl group of type E_7

    Let $A=\{{\bf a}_1,...,{\bf a}_m\} \subset \mathbb{Z}^n$ be a vector configuration and $I_A \subset K[x_1,...,x_m]$ its corresponding toric ideal. The paper consists of two parts. In the first part we completely determine the number of different minimal systems of binomial generators of $I_A$. We also prove that generic toric ideals are generated by indispen

    We define cyclic cohomology of corings over not necessarily commutative algebras. We observe that the key fact which allows us to define this complex is that enveloping algebra of an algebra is a para Hopf algebroid. This observation enables us to define Hopf cyclic cohomology of corings on which para Hopf algebroids act.

    The Swan, Leray and Leray-Serre spectral sequences of a compact Hausdorff HLC space acted on by a discrete group are shown to be isomorphic.

    By a local geometric Langlands correspondence for a complex reductive group G we understand a construction which assigns to a local system on the punctured disc for the Langlands dual group of G, a category equipped with an action of the formal loop group G((t)). We propose a conjectural description of these categories as categories of representations of the

    Let $V$ be an irreducible representation of group $GL_n({\mathbb C})$, which appears as a submodule in $({\mathbb C}^n)^{\otimes d}$, where ${\mathbb C}^n$ is the tautological $n$-dimensional representation of $GL_n$, and $d$ is a non-negative integer. On the one hand, following refs [Gi] and [BG] one can produce a basis in $V$ using irreducible components o

    We propose an alternative scenario to cosmic inflation for producing the initial seeds of cosmic structures. The cosmological fluctuations are generated by thermal fluctuation of the energy density of the ideal string gas in three compact spatial dimensions. Statistical mechanics of the strings reveals that scalar power spectrum of the cosmological fluctuati

    We study the R -> 0 limit for heterotic strings of either kind (Spin(32)/Z_2 or E_8 x E_8) compactified on a circle, in the presence of an arbitrary Wilson line. Though for generic Wilson line this limit leads to chaotic behaviour, there are two distinguished, countable subsets of Wilson lines, that are dense in the total space of Wilson lines: One subset le

    We derive simple new expressions, in various dimensions, for the functional determinant of a radially separable partial differential operator, thereby generalizing the one-dimensional result of Gel&#39;fand and Yaglom to higher dimensions. We use the zeta function formalism, and the results agree with what one would obtain using the angular momentum cutoff m

    In this article, we study the stability of the space of asymptotic fermion states in (2+1)D, when long range interparticle interactions are present. This is done in the framework of bosonization, where the fermion propagator can be represented in terms of a vortex correlator. In particular, we discuss possible instabilities in the large distance behavior of

    We discuss how in supersymmetric models with D and F-flat directions, a primordial monopole flux of order 10^{-16} - 10^{-18} cm^{-2} sec^{-1} sr^{-1} can coexist with the observed baryon asymmetry. A modified Affleck-Dine scenario yields the desired asymmetry if the monopoles are superheavy (~ 10^{13}-10^{18} GeV). For lighter monopoles with masses ~ 10^{9}

    A simple idea restricting the brane width due to astronomical observations is proposed. Not to contradict the observational data the brane width should be of about Planck size giving therefore strict criterion in selecting the realistic braneworld models.
