Mode-directed tabling is an extension to the tabling technique that supports the definition of mode operators for specifying how answers are inserted into the table space. In this paper, we focus our discussion on the efficient support for mode directed-tabling in the YapTab tabling system. We discuss 7 different mode operators and explain how we have extend

The Fermilab Booster - built more than 40 years ago - operates well above the design proton beam intensity of 4x10**12 ppp. Still, the Fermilab neutrino experiments call for even higher intensity of 5.5x10**12 ppp. A multitude of intensity related effects must be overcome in order to meet this goal including suppression of coherent dipole instabilities of tr

I present a study of the high-energy gamma-ray properties of the flat spectrum radio quasar, PKS 1510-089, based on 3.75 years of observations with the Large Area Telescope (LAT) detector on-board the Fermi gamma-ray Space Telescope. Throughout the observing period, the 0.1 GeV < E < 300 GeV gamma-ray flux was highly variable, undergoing several flaring even

We previously designed Partial Order Conflict Driven Clause Learning (PO-CDCL), a variation of the satisfiability solving CDCL algorithm with a partial order on decision levels, and showed that it can speed up the solving on problems with a high independence between decision levels. In this paper, we more thoroughly analyze the reasons of the efficiency of P

The 2006 radio flare in the blazar CTA102 is the largest ever reported for this source. The analysis of the single--dish light curves revealed a possible shock-shock interaction as a scenario for the 2006 outburst. In order to confirm this hypothesis we analyzed eight multi-frequency (2 GHz - 86 GHz) VLBI observations covering the 2006 flare. We detected a r

The Frame-Stewart algorithm for the 4-peg variant of the Tower of Hanoi, introduced in 1941, partitions disks into intermediate towers before moving the remaining disks to their destination. Algorithms that partition the disks have not been proven to be optimal, although they have been verified for up to 30 disks. This paper presents a dynamic programming ap

The question of the existence of a spin liquid state in the half-filled Hubbard model on the honeycomb (aka graphene) lattice is revisited. The Variational Cluster Approximation (VCA), the Cluster Dynamical Mean Field Theory (CDMFT) and the Cluster Dynamical Impurity Approximation (CDIA) are applied to various cluster systems. Assuming that the spin liquid p

Since the database update view was standardised in the Prolog ISO standard, the so called logical update view is available in all actively maintained Prolog systems. While this update view provided a well defined update semantics and allows for efficient handling of dynamic code, it does not help in maintaining consistency of the dynamic database. With the i

Let $A$ be an algebra of bounded smooth functions on the interior of a compact set in the plane. We study the following problem: if $f,f_1,\dots,f_n\in A$ satisfy $|f|\leq \sum_{j=1}^n |f_j|$, does there exist $g_j\in A$ and a constant $N\in\N$ such that $f^N=\sum_{j=1}^n g_j f_j$? A prominent role in our proofs is played by a new space, $C_{\dbar, 1}(K)$, w

We have researched the effect of the zirconium deformation by the extension at the temperature of 4.2 K, with the subsequent heating up to the room temperature of 300 K, on both the zirconium crystal grating structure and the magnitude of superconducting transition temperature Tc, using the zirconium samples, synthesized by the method of the electron beam me

This paper is a contribution to the development of the non associative algebras theory. More precisely, this work deals with the classification of the complex 4-dimensional Leibniz algebras. Note that the classification of 4-dimensional nilpotent complex Leibniz algebras was obtained in [1]. Therefore we will only consider non nilpotent case in this work.

We give a complete and elementary proofs of &#34;Jordan&#39;s sums&#34; and study Euler&#39;s types sums. In particular we give a formula for the sum of series with same weight, which is similar to this one of classical 2-Euler&#39;s sums.

This paper formulates bottom-up visual saliency as center surround conditional entropy and presents a fast and efficient technique for the computation of such a saliency map. It is shown that the new saliency formulation is consistent with self-information based saliency, decision-theoretic saliency and Bayesian definition of surprises but also faces the sam

We study linear extremal problems in the Bergman space $A^p$ of the unit disc for $p$ an even integer. Given a functional on the dual space of $A^p$ with representing kernel $k \in A^q$, where $1/p + 1/q = 1$, we show that if the Taylor coefficients of $k$ are sufficiently small, then the extremal function $F \in H^{\infty}$. We also show that if $q \le q_1

This paper considers an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) downlink point-to-point system with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer. It is assumed that the receiver is able to harvest energy from noise, interference, and the desired signals. We study the design of power allocation algorithms maximizing the energy efficiency of

When V. M. Slipher gave the 1933 George Darwin lecture to the Royal Astronomical Society, it was natural that he spoke on spectrographic studies of planets. Less than one-sixth of his published work deals with globular clusters and the objects we now call galaxies. In his most productive years, when he had Percival Lowell to give him direction, Slipher made

Resistive-anode micromegas detectors are in development since several years, in an effort to solve the problem of sparks when working at high flux and high ionizing radiation like in the HL-LHC (up to ten times the luminosity of the LHC). They have been chosen as one of the technologies that will be part of the ATLAS New Small Wheel project (forward muon sys

Let Pi be a unitary representation of GL_2(Q_p), topologically of finite length. We describe the sub-representation Pi^{an} made of its locally analytic vectors, and its filtration by radius of analyticity, in terms of the phi-Gamma module attached to Pi via the p-adic local Langlands correspondence, and we deduce that the universal completion of Pi^{an} is

We show that the Laplace-Beltrami equation $\square_6 a =j$ in $(\setR^6,η)$, $η:= \mathrm{diag}(+----+)$, leads under very moderate assumptions to both the Maxwell equations and the conformal Eastwood-Singer gauge condition on conformally flat spaces including the spaces with a Robertson-Walker metric. This result is obtained through a geometric formalism w

We derive the Polyakov-loop thermodynamic potential in the perturbative approach to pure SU(3) Yang-Mills theory. The potential expressed in terms of the Polyakov loop in the fundamental representation corresponds to that of the strong-coupling expansion, of which the relevant coefficients of the gluon energy distribution are specified by characters of the S

Materials engineered at the micro- and nano-meter scale have had a tremendous and lasting impact in photonics and phononics, with applications ranging from periodic structures disallowing light and sound propagation at stop band frequencies, to subwavelength focussing and cloaking with metamaterials.

We analyse a class of estimators of the generalized diffusion coefficient for fractional Brownian motion $B_t$ of known Hurst index $H$, based on weighted functionals of the single time square displacement. We show that for a certain choice of the weight function these functionals possess an ergodic property and thus provide the true, ensemble-averaged, gene

A $k$-orbit map is a map with its automorphism group partitioning the set of flags into $k$ orbits. Recently $k$-orbit maps were studied by Orbani\&#39; c, Pellicer and Weiss, for $k \leq 4$. In this paper we use symmetry type graphs to extend such study and classify all the types of $5$-orbit maps, as well as all self-dual, properly and improperly, symmetry

We present a study of the influence of an external magnetic field H and an electric current I on the spin-valve (SV) effect between a ferromagnetic thin film (F) and a sharp tip of a nonmagnetic metal (N). To explain our observations, we propose a model of a local surface SV which is formed in such a N/F contact. In this model, a ferromagnetic cluster at the

We experimentally demonstrate all-optical interaction-free switching using the quantum Zeno effect, achieving a high contrast of 35:1. The experimental data matches a zero-parameter theoretical model for several different regimes of operation, indicating a good understanding of the switch&#39;s characteristics. We also discuss extensions of this work that wi

Fano&#39;s inequality reveals the relation between the conditional entropy and the probability of error . It has been the key tool in proving the converse of coding theorems in the past sixty years. In this paper, an extended Fano&#39;s inequality is proposed, which is tighter and more applicable for codings in the finite blocklength regime. Lower bounds on

When the college student satisfaction survey is considered in the promotion and recognition of instructors, a usual complaint is related to the impact that biased ratings have on the arithmetic mean (used as a measure of teaching effectiveness). This is especially significant when the number of students responding to the survey is small. In this work a new m

This PhD thesis studies some hadronic and radiative decays of the tau lepton using a Chiral Lagrangian including resonance fields. After a theoretical introduction, the decays to the $(πππ)^-$, $(KKπ)^-$ and $η^{(\prime)} π^- π^0$ hadronic states and $τ\to (π/K)^- γν_tau$ are analysed. Some material, which was not included in the corresponding references, is

Donsker&#39;s theorem shows that random walks behave like Brownian motion in an asymptotic sense. This result can be used to approximate expectations associated with the time and location of a random walk when it first crosses a nonlinear boundary. In this paper, correction terms are derived to improve the accuracy of these approximations.

We prove an inequality for the entropy numbers in terms of nonlinear Kolmogorov&#39;s widths. This inequality is in a spirit of known inequalities of this type and it is adjusted to the form convenient in applications for $m$-term approximations with respect to a given system. Also, we obtain upper bounds for the $m$-term approximation by the Weak Relaxed Gr

In this article we show that the $\Z_p[ζ_{p^f-1}]$-order $\Z_p[ζ_{p^f-1}]\SL_2(p^f)$ can be recognized among those orders whose reduction modulo $p$ is isomorphic to $\F_{p^f}\SL_2(p^f)$ using only ring-theoretic properties (in other words we show that $\F_{p^f}\SL_2(p^f)$ lifts uniquely to a $\Z_p[ζ_{p^f-1}]$-order, provided certain reasonable conditions ar

To improve the low frequency spectrum of magnetic field measurements of future tokamak reactors such as ITER, several steady state magnetic sensor technologies have been considered. For all the studied technologies it is always advantageous to place the sensors outside the vacuum vessel and as far away from the reactor core to minimize radiation damage and t

We present the analysis of photometric and spectroscopic data of six bright Galactic Cepheids: GH Carinae, V419 Centauri, V898 Centauri, AD Puppis, AY Sagittarii, and ST Velorum. Based on new radial velocity data (in some cases supplemented with earlier data available in the literature), these Cepheids have been found to be members in spectroscopic binary sy

How much does the curvature perturbation change after it leaves the horizon, and when should one evaluate the power spectrum? To answer these questions we study single field inflation models numerically, and compare the evolution of different curvature perturbations from horizon crossing to the end of inflation. We find that e.g. in chaotic inflation, the am

It has been proved by Lalley and Sellke [13] that every particle born in a branching Brownian motion has a descendant reaching the rightmost position at some future time.

During detachment of a viscous fluid extruded from a nozzle a filament linking the droplet to the latter is formed. Under the effect of surface tension the filament thins until pinch off and final detachment of the droplet. In this paper we study the effect of the presence of individual particles trapped in the filament on the detachment dynamics using granu

Gluon and ghost propagators data, obtained in Landau gauge from lattice simulations with two light and two heavy dynamical quark flavours ($N_f$=2+1+1), are described here with a running formula including a four-loop perturbative expression and a nonperturbative OPE correction dominated by the local operator $A^2$.

We investigate cooperative fluorescence in a dilute cloud of strongly driven two-level emitters. Starting from the Heisenberg equations of motion, we compute the first-order scattering corrections to the saturation of the excited-state population and to the resonance-fluorescence spectrum, which both require going beyond the state-of-the-art linear-optics ap

We present and analyze an approximation scheme for the two-dimensional game $p$-Laplacian in the framework of viscosity solutions. The approximation is based on a semi-Lagrangian scheme which exploits the idea of $p$-averages.

This paper introduces the notion of multiset codes as relevant to the problem of reliable information transmission over permutation channels. The motivation for studying permutation channels comes from the effect of out of order delivery of packets in some types of packet networks.

We generalize spin-rotation coupling to compound spin systems. In the case of muons bound to nuclei in a storage ring the decay process acquires a modulation. Typical frequencies for $Z/A\sim 1/2$ are $\sim 3\times 10^6$Hz, a factor 10 higher than the modulation observed in $g-2$ experiments.

A uniformly accelerated detector (Unruh detector) in the Minkowski vacuum is excited as if it is exposed to the thermal bath with temperature proportional to its acceleration. In the inertial frame, since both of an excitation and a deexcitation of the detector are accompanied by emission of radiation into the Minkowski vacuum, one may suspect that the Unruh

The capacity (or maximum flow) of an unicast network is known to be equal to the minimum s-t cut capacity due to the max-flow min-cut theorem. If the topology of a network (or link capacities) is dynamically changing or unknown, it is not so trivial to predict statistical properties on the maximum flow of the network.

Due to the rapid longitudinal expansion of the quark-gluon plasma created in relativistic heavy ion collisions, potentially large local rest frame momentum-space anisotropies are generated.

In the measurement, three negative-parity states and two inconclusive states, were identified in 17C above the neutron threshold energy, and seven gamma-lines were identified in a beta?-delayed multiple neutron emission of t

We study consequences of stationary and semi-stationary set reflection. We show that the semi stationary reflection principle implies the Singular Cardinal Hypothesis, the failure of weak square principle, etc. We also consider two cardinal tree properties introduced recently by Weiss and prove that they follow from stationary and semi stationary set reflect

A black hole can emit radiation called Hawking radiation. Such radiation seen by an observer outside the black hole differs from the original radiation near the horizon of the black hole by the so-called &#34;greybody factor&#34;. In this paper, the bounds of the greybody factors for the Reissner-Nordström black holes are obtained. These bounds can be derive

The magnetic fields in the solar atmosphere structure the plasma, store free magnetic energy and produce a wide variety of active solar phenomena, like flare and coronal mass ejections(CMEs). The distribution and strength of magnetic fields are routinely measured in the solar surface(photosphere). Therefore, there is considerable interest in accurately model

In this paper, we consider several special polynomials related to associated sequences of polynomials. Finally, we give some new and interesting identities of those polynomials arising from transfer formula for the associated sequences.

Angular distributions for elastic and inelastic scattering of $^3$He from $^{12}$C were measured at energies 50.5 and 60 MeV. The Airy minimum of the prerainbow scattering was clearly observed in the angular distributions for the 0$_2^+$ (7.65 MeV) state of $^{12}$C (Hoyle state). The experimental results were analyzed with a coupled channels method with dou

This paper describes a content centric network architecture which uses software defined networking principles to implement efficient metadata driven services by extracting content metadata at the network layer. The ability to access content metadata transparently enables a number of new services in the network. Specific examples discussed here include: a met

Transmission through and reflection from a potential barrier, and the very closely related issue of particle production from a parametric resonance, are topics of considerable general interest in quantum physics. We have developed a rather general bound on quantum transmission probabilities, and recently applied it to bounding the greybody factors of a Schwa

There is a growing interest in energy efficient or so-called &#34;green&#34; wireless communication to reduce the energy consumption in cellular networks. Since today&#39;s wireless terminals are typically equipped with multiple network access interfaces such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and cellular networks, this paper investigates user terminals cooperating with

We have analyzed long-slit spectra of 12 dwarf irregular galaxies from the Arecibo Dual Beam Survey (ADBS). These galaxies represent a heterogeneous sample of objects detected by ADBS, but on average are relatively gas-rich, low-surface-brightness, and low-mass, thus represent a region of the galaxian population that is not commonly included in optical surve

Why do some discoveries, which appear in hindsight to be obviously major discoveries, have so little impact when they were made. These are discoveries that were ahead of their time, but for some reason the scientific community was not ready to absorb them. I got interested in Slipher after learning that by 1914 he had observed nebular redshifts up to 1000 km

We use previously published high-resolution synchrotron polarization data to perform an angular dispersion analysis with the aim of charactering magnetized turbulence in M51. We first analyze three distinct regions (the center of the galaxy, and the northwest and southwest spiral arms) and can clearly discern the turbulent correlation length scale from the w

In this paper, we propose an opportunistic network coding (ONC) scheme in cellular relay networks, which operates depending on whether the relay decodes source messages successfully or not. A fully distributed method is presented to implement the proposed opportunistic network coding scheme without the need of any feedback between two network nodes. We consi
