In this paper, we study the representation theory of Hopf-Ore extensions of group algebras and pointed Hopf algebras of rank one over an arbitrary field $k$. Let $H=kG(χ, a,\d)$ be a Hopf-Ore extension of $kG$ and $H'$ a rank one quotient Hopf algebra of $H$, where $k$ is a field, $G$ is a group, $a$ is a central element of $G$ and $χ$ is a $k$-valued ch

We study the long time behavior, as $t\to\infty$, of solutions of $$ \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} u_t = u_{xx} + f(u), & x>0, \ t >0,\\ u(0,t) = b u_x(0,t), & t>0,\\ u(x,0) = u_0 (x)\geqslant 0 , & x\geqslant 0, \end{array} \right. $$ where $b\geqslant 0$ and $f$ is an unbalanced bistable nonlinearity. By investigating families of initial data of the type $\{ σ

High triangle density -- the graph property stating that a constant fraction of two-hop paths belong to a triangle -- is a common signature of social networks. This paper studies triangle-dense graphs from a structural perspective. We prove constructively that significant portions of a triangle-dense graph are contained in a disjoint union of dense, radius 2

I see no good reason to prefer (any version I know of) the `holonomy interpretation' to the `potential interpretation' of the Aharonov-Bohm effect. Everyone agrees that the inverse image $[A]=[A+dλ]_λ=d^{-1}F$ of the electromagnetic field $F$ is a class, full of individuals; and that the circulation $\small{\textsf{C}}$ of the electromagnetic potenti

This paper shows that the Maddah-Ali--Tse (MAT) scheme which establishes the symmetric capacity of two example broadcast channels with strictly causal state information at the transmitter is a simple special case of the Shayevitz--Wigger scheme for the broadcast channel with generalized feedback, which involves block Markov coding, compression, superposition

We perform time-dependent calculations of strong-field ionization of He by elliptically polarized light in configuration of recent attoclock measurements of Boge {\em et al} [PRL {\bf 111}, 103003 (2013)]. By solving a 3D time-dependent Schrödinger equation, we obtain the angular offset $θ_m$ of the maximum in the photoelectron momentum distribution in the p

We present examples of Lax-integrable multi-dimensional systems of partial differential equations with higher local symmetries. We also consider Lagrangian deformations of these equations and construct variational bivectors on them.

In this paper, the problem of pilot beam pattern design for channel estimation in massive multiple-input multiple-output systems with a large number of transmit antennas at the base station is considered, and a new algorithm for pilot beam pattern design for optimal channel estimation is proposed under the assumption that the channel is a stationary Gauss-Ma

It was argued in a number of papers that the gravitational potential calculated by using the modified QFT that follows from the Planck-length deformed uncertainty relation implies the existence of black-hole remnants of the order of the Planck-mass. Usually this sort of QFTs are endowed with two specific features, the modified dispersion relation, which is u

Differentially 4-uniform permutations on $\gf_{2^{2k}}$ with high nonlinearity are often chosen as Substitution boxes in both block and stream ciphers. Recently, Qu et al. introduced a class of functions, which are called preferred functions, to construct a lot of infinite families of such permutations \cite{QTTL}. In this paper, we propose a particular type

In this paper, we discuss the Cauchy Problem for the compressible isentropic Euler-Boltzmann equations with vacuum in radiation hydrodynamics. Firstly, we establish the local existence of regular solutions by the fundamental methods in the theory of quasi-linear symmetric hyperbolic systems under some physical assumptions. Then we give the non-global existen

We study the Cauchy problem for multi-dimensional compressible radiation hydrodynamics equations with vacuum. First, we present some sufficient conditions on the blow-up of smooth solutions in multi-dimensional space. Then, we obtain the invariance of the support of density for the smooth solutions with compactly supported initial mass density by the propert

Among other things, we prove the following two topologcal statements about closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds. First, every rational second homology class of a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold has a positve integral multiple represented by an oriented connected closed $π_1$-injectively immersed quasi-Fuchsian subsurface. Second, every rationally null-homologous, $π_1

It is perhaps not so baffling that we have the ability to develop, refine, and manifest a creative idea, once it has been conceived. But what sort of a system could spawn the initial seed of creativity from which an idea grows? This paper looks at how the mind is structured in such a way that we can experience a glimmer of insight or inkling of artistic insp

Motivated by classification, up to order isomorphism, of some dense subgroups of Euclidean space that are free of minimal rank, we obtain apparently new invariants for an equivalence relation (intermediate between Hermite and Smith) on integer matrices. These then participate in the classification of the dense subgroups. The same equivalence relation has app

Four-point one-loop nonsupersymmetric pure Yang-Mills amplitudes with the duality between color and kinematics manifest have been constructed in previous work. Here, we extend the discussion to fermions and scalars circulating in the loop with all external gluons. This gives another nontrivial loop-level example showing that the duality between color and kin

Higgs G-inflation is a Higgs inflation model with a generalized Galileon term added to the standard model Higgs field, which realizes inflation compatible with observations. Recently, it was claimed that the generalized Galileon term induces instabilities during the oscillation phase, and that the simplest Higgs G-inflation model inevitably suffers from this

At the core of our uniquely human cognitive abilities is the capacity to see things from different perspectives, or to place them in a new context. We propose that this was made possible by two cognitive transitions.

Based on the connection between Tsallis nonextensive statistics and fractional dimensional space, in this work we have introduced, with the aid of Verlinde's formalism, the Newton constant in a fractal space as a function of the nonextensive constant.

We studied the signatures of an electroweak SU(2) lepton triplet which contains a doubly charged heavy lepton. The most interesting and easily detected final states are originating from the doubly charged lepton pair and single production, that we analyzed at a center of mass energy of 14 TeV.

Self-avoiding walks (SAWs) were introduced in chemistry to model the real-life behavior of chain-like entities such as solvents and polymers, whose physical volume prohibits multiple occupation of the same spatial point. In mathematics, a SAW lives in the n-dimensional lattices. In this paper, SAWs are a metaphor for walks across faces of n-dimensional dice,

A C99 program is presented which calculates the Clausen sums for non-negative integer indices j and real arguments x. The implementation is split into three major cases. For large j, a direct, truncated summation of the sum is performed. For smaller j, the associate polynomial of x is evaluated if applicable; otherwise a Chebyshev series is constructed by re

Copulas are mathematical objects that fully capture the dependence structure among random variables and hence, offer a great flexibility in building multivariate stochastic models. In statistics, a copula is used as a general way of formulating a multivariate distribution in such a way that various general types of dependence can be represented. In case of b

In this article, a model is proposed using Bayesian techniques to account for the high correlation between many observed set of contingency tables. In many real life data this high correlation is encountered. Simulation studies are also given to check the effectiveness of this model.

Applying the method of moving planes in integral forms, we establish radial symmetry for positive solutions to a class of semilinear equations involving the fractional Laplacian in the unit ball and obtain Liouville type theorems concerning the non-existence of positive solutions in the half space. The regularity of solutions are also investigated.

We consider a simple system with a local synchronous generator and a load whose power consumption is a random process. The most probable scenario of system failure (synchronization loss) is considered, and it is argued that its knowledge is virtually enough to estimate the probability of failure per unit time. We discuss two numerical methods to obtain the &

We propose a novel Galerkin discretization scheme for stochastic optimal control problems on an indefinite time horizon. The control problems are linear-quadratic in the controls, but possibly nonlinear in the state variables, and the discretization is based on the fact that problems of this kind can be transformed into linear boundary value problems by a lo

The classical PCP theorem is arguably the most important achievement of classical complexity theory in the past quarter century. In recent years, researchers in quantum computational complexity have tried to identify approaches and develop tools that address the question: does a quantum version of the PCP theorem hold?

By a Cantor group we mean a topological group homeomorphic to the Cantor set. We show that a compact metric space of rational cohomological dimension $n$ can be obtained as the orbit space of a Cantor group action on a metric compact space of covering dimension $n$. Moreover, the action can be assumed to be free if $n=1$.

Myriad articles are devoted to Mertens's theorem. In yet another, we merely wish to draw attention to a proof by Hardy, which uses a Tauberian theorem of Landau that "leads to the conclusion in a direct and elegant manner".

A real Milnor manifold is the non-singular hypersurface of degree $(1,1)$ in the product of two real projective spaces. These manifolds were introduced by Milnor to give generators for the unoriented cobordism algebra, and they admit free actions by elementary abelian 2-groups.

Thus, it can be used to approach the phase transitions in finite-dimensional dis

By the calculation of the gap of the consecutive eigenvalues of $\Bbb S^n$ with standard metric, using the Weyl's asymptotic formula, we know the order of the upper bound of this gap is $k^{\frac{1}{n}}.$ We conjecture that this order is also right for general Dirichlet problem of the Laplace operator, which is optimal if this conjecture holds, obviously

Laser plasma accelerators have the potential to reduce the size of future linacs for high energy physics by more than an order of magnitude, due to their high gradient. Research is in progress at current facilities, including the BELLA PetaWatt laser at LBNL, towards high quality 10 GeV beams and staging of multiple modules, as well as control of injection a

The scalar potential of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) admits the existence of vacua with non-vanishing expectation values of electrically and color charged fields. If such minima are deep enough, the physical electroweak vacuum is rendered unstable by quantum tunneling. By comparing the lifetime of the electroweak vacuum with the age of th

It is proved that the median eigenvalues of every connected bipartite graph $G$ of maximum degree at most three belong to the interval $[-1,1]$ with a single exception of the Heawood graph, whose median eigenvalues are $\pm\sqrt{2}$. Moreover, if $G$ is not isomorphic to the Heawood graph, then a positive fraction of its median eigenvalues lie in the interva

For most metals, increasing temperature (T) or disorder will quicken electron scattering. This hypothesis informs the Drude model of electronic conductivity. However, for so-called bad metals this predicts scattering times so short as to conflict with Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. Here we introduce the rare-earth nickelates (RNiO_3, R = rare earth)

Similarity search is an important function in many applications, which usually focuses on measuring the similarity between objects with the same type. However, in many scenarios, we need to measure the relatedness between objects with different types. With the surge of study on heterogeneous networks, the relevance measure on objects with different types bec

The International Pulsar Timing Array (IPTA) is an organisation whose raison d'etre is to facilitate collaboration between the three main existing PTAs (the EPTA in Europe, NANOGrav in North America and the PPTA in Australia) in order to realise the benefits of combined PTA data sets in reaching the goals of PTA projects. Currently, shared data sets for

Multiderivative time integrators have a long history of development for ordinary differential equations, and yet to date, only a small subset of these methods have been explored as a tool for solving partial differential equations (PDEs). This large class of time integrators include all popular (multistage) Runge-Kutta as well as single-step (multiderivative

The problem of determining the volume of a tubular neighbourhood has a long and rich history. Bounds on the volume of neighbourhoods of algebraic sets have turned out to play an important role in the probabilistic analysis of condition numbers in numerical analysis. We present a self-contained derivation of bounds on the probability that a random point, chos
