    We give a consistent quantum description of time, based on Page and Wootters' conditional probabilities mechanism, that overcomes the criticisms that were raised against similar previous proposals. In particular we show how the model allows to reproduce the correct statistics of sequential measurements performed on a system at different times.

    Let $f : [0, 1] \to [0, 1]$ be a piecewise expanding unimodal map of class $C^{k+1}$, with $k \geq 1$, and $μ= ρdx$ the (unique) SRB measure associated to it. We study the regularity of $ρ$. In particular, points $\mathcal{N}$ where $ρ$ is not differentiable has zero Hausdorff dimension, but is uncountable if the critical orbit of $f$ is dense. This improves

  3. Yuri Kifer, S. R. S. Varadhan

    We obtain first decay rates of probabilities of tails of multivariate polynomials built on independent random variables with heavy tails. Then we derive stable limit theorems for nonconventional sums of the form $\sum_{Nt\geq n\geq 1}F(X(q_1(n)),...,X(q_\ell(n)))$ where $F$ is a polynomial, $1\leq q_1(n)<\cdots <q_\ell(n)$ are integer valued increasing funct

    The selfconsistent model for the temperature dependence of photoconversion efficiency $η$ for highly efficient silicon solar cells (SCs) is developed. It is demonstrated that effect of the efficiency decrease due to increasing temperature is less pronounced in the SCs with lower surface recombination velocity, thus offering a possibility to improve the cells

  5. Qi&#39;an Guan, Xiangyu Zhou

    In the present article, we establish an equality condition in the restriction formula on jumping numbers by giving a sharp lower bound of the dimension of the support of a related coherent sheaf. As applications, we obtain equality conditions in the restriction formula on complex singularity exponents by giving the dimension, the regularity and the transvers

    This note has a twofold purpose. To improve the best known lower estimates of the Hardy-Littlewood inequality for $m$-linear forms in $\ell_{p}$ spaces and to provide a closed formula encompassing the cases $p>2m$ and $% p=2m.$ Our approach is quite simpler than the previous and uses the best known constants of the Clarkson&#39;s inequalities.

    Under which conditions do the electrical transport properties of one-dimensional (1D) carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and 2D graphene become equivalent? We have performed atomistic calculations of the phonon-limited electrical mobility in graphene and in a wide range of CNTs of different types to address this issue. The theoretical study is based on a tight-binding

  8. V. K. Dobrev

    In the present paper we continue the project of systematic construction of invariant differential operators on the example of the non-compact algebra $so^*(12)$. We give the main multiplets of indecomposable elementary representations. Due to the recently established parabolic relations the multiplet classification results are valid also for the algebra $so(

    We construct asymptotically Kaluza-Klein solutions in five-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory which represent a pair of extremal, charged, static black holes on Kerr-Taub-bolt space. Regularity conditions require that the topology of spatial infinity and that of each black hole are not S$^3$, but different lens spaces. We show that for a given topology at s

    Information-theoretic definitions for noise and disturbance in quantum measurements were given in Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 050401 (2014) and a state-independent noise-disturbance uncertainty relation was obtained. Here, we derive a tight noise-disturbance uncertainty relation for complementary qubit observables and carry out an experimental test. Successive pro

    Let $X$ be a zero-dimensional metric space and $X&#39;$ its derived set. We prove the following assertions: (1) the space $C_k(X,2)$ is an Ascoli space iff $C_k(X,2)$ is $k_\mathbb{R}$-space iff either $X$ is locally compact or $X$ is not locally compact but $X&#39;$ is compact, (2) $C_k(X,2)$ is a $k$-space iff either $X$ is a topological sum of a Polish lo

    Single crystals of K$_x$Fe$_{2-y}$Se$_2$ are prepared by quenching at various temperatures. The crystals obtained at higher quenching temperatures have a surface morphology with mesh-like texture. They show a sharp superconducting transition at $T_\rm{c}$ ~32 K with a large shielding volume fraction. On the other hand, the crystals prepared without quenching

    In 1962, Erdős proved that if a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices satisfies $$ e(G)>\max\left\{\binom{n-k}{2}+k^2,\binom{\lceil(n+1)/2\rceil}{2}+\left\lfloor \frac{n-1}{2}\right\rfloor^2\right\}, $$ where the minimum degree $δ(G)\geq k$ and $1\leq k\leq(n-1)/2$, then it is Hamiltonian. For $n \geq 2k+1$, let $E^k_n=K_{k}\vee (kK_1+K_{n-2k})$, where &#34;$\vee$&#34

    Using a finite support iteration of ccc forcings, we construct a model of $\aleph_1<\mathrm{add}(\mathcal{N})<\mathrm{cov}(\mathcal{N})<\mathfrak{b}<\mathrm{non}(\mathcal{M})<\mathrm{cov}(\mathcal{M})=\mathfrak{c}$.

    We consider the simplest extension of the standard model, where torsion couples to spinor as well as to scalar fields, and in which the cosmological constant problem is solved.

    We study the volatility of the output of a Boolean function when the input bits undergo a natural dynamics. For $n = 1,2,\ldots$, let $f_n:\{0,1\}^{m_n} \ra \{0,1\}$ be a Boolean function and $X^{(n)}(t)=(X_1(t),\ldots,X_{m_n}(t))_{t \in [0,\infty)}$ be a vector of i.i.d.\ stationary continuous time Markov chains on $\{0,1\}$ that jump from $0$ to $1$ with r

    A search for heavy long-lived multi-charged particles is performed using the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Data collected in 2012 at $\sqrt{s}$=8 TeV from $pp$ collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $20.3$ fb$^{-1}$ are examined.

    We study Lefschetz fixed point formulas for constructible sheaves with higher-dimensional fixed point sets. Under fairly weak assumptions, we prove that the local contributions from them are expressed by some constructible functions associated to hyperbolic localizations. This gives an affirmative answer to a conjecture of Goresky-MacPherson in particular fo

    We study a class of stochastic differential equations driven by a possibly tempered L{é}vy process, under mild conditions on the coefficients. We prove the well-posedness of the associated martingale problem as well as the existence of the density of the solution. Two sided heat kernel estimates are given as well. Our approach is based on the Parametrix seri

    The Kawazumi-Zhang invariant $φ$ for compact genus-two Riemann surfaces was recently shown to be a eigenmode of the Laplacian on the Siegel upper half-plane, away from the separating degeneration divisor. Using this fact and the known behavior of $φ$ in the non-separating degeneration limit, it is shown that $φ$ is equal to the Theta lift of the unique (up t

    The purpose of this paper is to study anti-invariant Riemannian submersions from Kenmotsu manifolds onto Riemannian manifolds. Several fundamental results in this respect are proved. The integrability of the distributions and the geometry of foliations are investigated. We proved that there do not exist (anti-invariant) Riemannian submersions from Kenmotsu m

    We consider the Hamiltonian reduction and canonical quantization of a massive AdS$_2$ superparticle realized on the coset OSP(1|2)/SO(1,1). The phase space of the massive superparticle is represented as a coadjoint orbit of a timelike element of $\mathfrak{osp}$(1|2). This orbit has a well defined symplectic structure and the OSP(1|2) symmetry is realized as

    We numerically study disorder effects in Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang (BHZ) model, and find that Anderson transition of quantum spin-Hall insulator (QSHI) is determined by model parameters. The BHZ Hamiltonian is equivalent to two decoupled spin blocks that belong to the unitary class. In contrast to the common belief that a two-dimensional unitary system scales to

    Full-duplex small-cell relays with multiple antennas constitute a core element of the envisioned 5G network architecture. In this paper, we use stochastic geometry to analyze the performance of wireless networks with full-duplex multiple-antenna small cells, with particular emphasis on the probability of successful transmission. To achieve this goal, we addi

    Let $D$ be a bounded, connected, open set in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ with polygonal boundary. Suppose $D$ has initial temperature $1$ and the complement of $D$ has initial temperature $0$. We obtain the asymptotic behaviour of the heat content of $D$ as time $t \downarrow 0$. We then apply this result to compute the heat content of a particular frac

    The article considers the successful implementation of relativistic equation-of-motion coupled cluster method for the electron attachment problem (EA-EOMCC) at the level of single- and double- excitation approximation. The implemented relativistic EA-EOMCC method is employed to calculate ionization potential values of alkali metal atoms (Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, F

    Experiments with superconducting microwave cavities have been performed in our laboratory for more than two decades. The purpose of the present article is to recapitulate some of the highlights achieved. We briefly review (i) results obtained with flat, cylindrical microwave resonators, so-called microwave billiards, concerning the universal fluctuation prop

    It has been known since the pioneering work of Bernal, Fowler and Pauling that common, hexagonal (Ih) water ice is the archetype of a frustrated material : a proton-bonded network in which protons satisfy strong local constraints - the &#34;ice rules&#34; - but do not order. While this proton disorder is well established, there is now a growing body of evide

    Let $G$ be a finite group of Lie type and $\St_k$ be the Steinberg representation of $G$, defined over a field $k$. We are interested in the case where $k$ has prime characteristic~$\ell$ and $\St_k$ is reducible. Tinberg has shown that the socle of $\St_k$ is always simple. We give a new proof of this result in terms of the Hecke algebra of $G$ with respect

    We provide a fully analytical microscopic theory for the proton correlations in water ice $I_h$. We compute the full diffuse elastic neutron scattering structure factor, which we find to be in excellent quantitative agreement with Monte Carlo simulations. It is also in remarkable qualitative agreement with experiment, in the absence of any fitting parameters

    We study the theory of interaction between charged scalar field and Maxwell field in de Sitter background. Solving the equation of interacting fields we define the in-out fields as asymptotic free fields and construct the reduction formalism for scalar field. Then we derive the perturbation expansion of the scattering operator. The first order transition amp

    Interaction graphs were introduced as a general, uniform, construction of dynamic models of linear logic, encompassing all &#34;Geometry of Interaction&#34; (GoI) constructions introduced so far. This series of work was inspired from Girard&#39;s hyperfinite GoI, and develops a quantitative approach that should be understood as a dynamic version of weighted

    Recently, Maulik and Okounkov proposed an integrable lattice model where the degree of freedom at each site is identical to the Hilbert space of free boson in two dimensions. We give a brief review of their construction and explain the relation with $\mathcal{W}_n$ algebra and Calogero-Sutherland model. As a generalization, we examine the Yangian associated

    We describe a criterion for the detection of entanglement between two multi-boson systems. The criterion is based on calculating correlations of Gell-Mann matrices with a fixed boson number on each subsystem. This applies naturally to systems such as two entangled spinor Bose-Einstein condensates. We apply our criterion to several experimentally motivated ex

    Energetic outflows from main sequence stars accreting mass at very high rates might account for the powering of some eruptive objects, such as merging main sequence stars, major eruptions of luminous blue variables, e.g., the Great Eruption of Eta Carinae, and other intermediate luminosity optical transients (ILOTs; Red Novae; Red Transients). These powerful

    We construct a piecewise linear approximation for the dynamical $Φ_3^4$ model on $\mathbb{T}^3$ by the theory of regularity structures in [Hai14]. For the dynamical $Φ^4_3$ model it is proved in [Hai14] that a renormalisation has to be performed in order to define the nonlinear term. Compared to the results in [Hai14] we consider piecewise linear approximati

    The IDV observations of S4 0917+624 were carried out monthly, from August 2005 to January 2010, with the Urumqi 25m radio telescope at 4.8 GHz. The quasar S4 0917+624 exhibits only very weak or no IDV during our 4.5 year observing interval. Prior to the year 2000, the source S4 0917+624 was one of the most prominent IDV sources. Our new data indicate that th

    In this paper, First we have given the modified form of (p,q)-analogues of Bernstein and Bernstein operators [21-23] and then we introduce a new analogue of Bernstein-Kantorovich operators which we call as (p,q)-Bernstein-Kantorovich operators. We discuss approximation properties for these operators based on Korovkin&#39;s type approximation theorem and we c

    The phase space analysis of cosmological parameters $Ω_ϕ$ and $γ_ϕ$ is given. Based on this, the well-known quintessence cosmology is studied with an exponential potential $V(ϕ)=V_{0}\exp(-λϕ)$. Given observational data, the current state of universe could be pinpointed in the phase diagrams, thus making the diagrams more informative. The scaling solution of

    The value 1 problem is a decision problem for probabilistic automata over finite words: given a probabilistic automaton, are there words accepted with probability arbitrarily close to 1? This problem was proved undecidable recently; to overcome this, several classes of probabilistic automata of different nature were proposed, for which the value 1 problem ha

    We establish formulas for the $b$-adic Walsh coefficients of functions in $C^α[0,1]$ for an integer $α\geq 1$ and give upper bounds on the Walsh coefficients of these functions. We also study the Walsh coefficients of periodic and non-periodic functions in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces.

    The Higgs field in the standard model (SM) may couple to new physics sectors related with dark matter and/or massive neutrinos. In this paper we propose a novel signature, the boosted di-Higgs boson plus \ET (which is either a dark matter or neutrino), to probe those new physics sectors. In a large class of models, in particular the supersymmetric SMs and lo

    A novel model of spontaneous Leptogenesis is investigated, where it takes place in the thermal equilibrium due to a background Nambu-Goldstone field in motion. In particular, we identify the Nambu-Goldstone field to be the Majoron which associates with spontaneous breakdown of (discrete) $B-L$ symmetry. In this scenario sufficient lepton number asymmetry is

    This work deals with the inhomogeneous Landau equation on the torus in the cases of hard, maxwellian and moderately soft potentials. We first investigate the linearized equation and we prove exponential decay estimates for the associated semigroup. We then turn to the nonlinear equation and we use the linearized semigroup decay in order to construct solution

    We study the magnetoelectric coupling at the surface of a topological insulator. We are in particular interested in the surface current induced by a static Zeeman/exchange field. This surface current can be related to the orbital magnetization of the system. For an insulator with zero Chern number, the orbital magnetization is independent of the details at t

    We study slopes of finite cyclic covering fibrations of a fibered surface. We give the best possible lower bound of the slope of these fibrations. We also give the slope equality of finite cyclic covering fibrations of a ruled surface and observe the local concentration of the global signature of these surfaces on a finite number of fiber germs. We also give

    Perturbative schemes utilizing a spectral moment expansion are well known and extensively used for investigating the physics of model Hamiltonians and real material systems. The advantages they offer, in terms of being computationally inexpensive, with real frequency output at zero and finite temperatures, compensate for their deficiencies and offer a quick,

    We extended the known result that symbols from modulation spaces $M^{\infty,1}(\mathbb{R}^{2n})$, also known as the Sjöstrand&#39;s class, produce bounded operators in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$, to general $L^p$ boundedness at the cost of lost of derivatives. Indeed, we showed that pseudo-differential operators acting from $L^p$-Sobolev spaces $L^p_s(\mathbb{R}^n)

    A 1D metallic surface state was created on an anisotropic InSb(001) surface covered with Bi. Angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) showed a 1D Fermi contour with almost no 2D distortion. Close to the Fermi level ($E_{\rm F}$), the angle-integrated photoelectron spectra showed power-law scaling with the binding energy and temperature. The ARPES pl

    We derive an effective Maxwell-London equation for entangled polymer complex under the topological constraint, borrowing the theoretical framework from the topological field theory.

    We define the parametric closure problem, in which the input is a partially ordered set whose elements have linearly varying weights and the goal is to compute the sequence of minimum-weight lower sets of the partial order as the weights vary.

    The aim of this chapter is to make a review of the recent results using the Enclosure Method on inverse obstacle problems governed by the wave equation and the Maxwell system in time domain.

    The Bialas-Bzdak model of elastic proton-proton scattering assumes a purely imaginary forward scattering amplitude, which consequently vanishes at the diffractive minima. We extended the model to arbitrarily large real parts in a way that constraints from unitarity are satisfied. The resulting model is able to describe elastic $pp$ scattering not only at the

    We prove in this paper that a sequence $M:\mathbb{Z}^{n}\to\mathcal{L}(E)$ of bounded variation is a Fourier multiplier on the Besov space $B_{p,q}^{s}(\mathbb{T}^{n},E)$ for $s\in\mathbb{R}$, $1<p<\infty$, $1\leq q\leq\infty$ and $E$ a Banach space, if and only if $E$ is a UMD-space.

    This paper gives an overview of several key innovations in the 19th century which led to complex geometry in the 20th century. This includes the creation of the complex plane, the work of Abel on addition theorems for generalized elliptic integrals, the theory of elliptic functions, holomorphic functions, and the creation of Riemann surfaces by Riemann in th

    The Pascal rhombus is a variant of Pascal&#39;s triangle in which each term is a sum of four earlier terms. Klostermeyer et al. made four conjectures about the Pascal rhombus modulo 2. In this paper we show how exploration of the stealth shape leads to unified proofs of all of these conjectures.

    Contacting a bilayer ferromagnet with a singlet even-frequency superconductor allows for the realization of an effective triplet odd-frequency superconductor. In this work, we investigate the Josephson effect between superconductors with different symmetries (e.g. odd- versus even-frequency). In particular, we study the supercurrent flowing between two tripl

    Block and global Krylov subspace methods have been proposed as methods adapted to the situation where one iteratively solves systems with the same matrix and several right hand sides. These methods are advantageous, since they allow to cast the major part of the arithmetic in terms of matrix-block vector products, and since, in the block case, they take thei

    We prove local inverse-type estimates for the four non-local boundary integral operators associated with the Laplace operator on a bounded d-dimensional Lipschitz domain Omega for d >= 2 with piecewise smooth boundary. For piecewise polynomial ansatz spaces and d = 2 or 3, the inverse estimates are explicit in both the local mesh width and the approximation

    We prove that given any $ε>0$, random integral $n\times n$ matrices with independent entries that lie in any residue class modulo a prime with probability at most $1-ε$ have cokernels asymptotically (as $n\rightarrow\infty$) distributed as in the distribution on finite abelian groups that Cohen and Lenstra conjecture as the distribution for class groups of i

    The single particle stability in a circular accelerator is of concern especially for operational regimes involving beam storage of hours. In the proximity to a resonance this stability domain shrinks, and the phase space fragments into a jungle of exotic objects like for instance &#34;fix-lines&#34;. The concept of fix-points is easily understandable in a 2D

    This research deals with the mathematical modeling of the physical capital diffusion through the borders of the countries. The physical capital is considered an important variable for the economic growth of a country. Here we use an extension of the economic Solow model to describe how the smuggling affects the economic growth of the countries. In this study

    Benford&#39;s Law states that the frequency of first digits of numbers in naturally occurring systems is not evenly distributed. Numbers beginning with a 1 occur roughly 30\% of the time, and are six times more common than numbers beginning with a 9. We show that Benford&#39;s Law applies to social and behavioral features of users in online social networks.

    We employ a continuum approach to the three valence-quark bound-state problem in relativistic quantum field theory to predict a range of properties of the proton&#39;s radial excitation and thereby unify them with those of numerous other hadrons. Our analysis indicates that the nucleon&#39;s first radial excitation is the Roper resonance. It consists of a co

    We investigate Hawking evaporation in a recently suggested picture in which black holes are Bose condensates of gravitons at a quantum critical point. There, evaporation of a black hole is due to two intertwined effects. Coherent excitation of a tachyonic breathing mode is responsible for the collapse of the condensate, while incoherent scattering of gravito

    KIC 2835289 is a triple stellar system that consists of an inner ellipsoidal variable with an orbital period of ~0.86 days and an outer star that eclipses the inner pair every ~750 days. Two eclipse events were observed by the Kepler mission, but they do not fully constrain our photodynamical models. The next eclipse event will occur on May 14 UT, and we sol

    We give the detailed derivation of the fully covariant form of the quadratic action and the derived linear equations of motion for a massive graviton in an arbitrary background metric (which were presented in arXiv:1410.8302 [hep-th]). Our starting point is the de Rham-Gabadadze-Tolley (dRGT) family of ghost free massive gravities and using a simple model of

    Ever since Heisenberg&#39;s proposal of a quantum-mechanical origin of ferromagnetism in 1928, the spin model named after him has been central to advances in magnetism, featuring in proposals of novel many-body states such as antiferromagnets, emergent gauge fields in their confined (valence bond crystal) and deconfined (resonating valence bond spin liquids)

    We investigate beta-interactions of free nucleons and their impact on the electron fraction (Y_e) and r-process nucleosynthesis in ejecta characteristic of binary neutron star mergers (BNSMs). For that we employ trajectories from a relativistic BNSM model to represent the density-temperature evolutions in our parametric study. In the high-density environment

    [abridged] The ALESS survey has followed-up a sample of 122 sub-millimeter sources in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South at 870um with ALMA, allowing to pinpoint the positions of sub-millimeter galaxies (SMGs) to 0.3&#39;&#39; and to find their precise counterparts at different wavelengths. This enabled the first compilation of the multi-wavelength spectr

    We calculate the colours and luminosities of redshift z = 0.1 galaxies from the EAGLE simulation suite using the GALAXEV population synthesis models. We take into account obscuration by dust in birth clouds and diffuse ISM using a two-component screen model, following the prescription of Charlot and Fall. We compare models in which the dust optical depth is

    We study $3d$ (or $(3+1)d$) Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) realized on the boundary of $4d$ (or $(4+1)d$) bosonic symmetry protected topological (BSPT) states, using a systematic nonlinear sigma model (NLSM) field theory description of BSPT states. We demonstrate that many of these QED states have an exact electric-magnetic duality due to the symmetry of the

    We show that a (semi-normalized) basis in a Banach space is quasi-greedy with quasi-greedy constant equal to 1 if and only if it is unconditional with suppression-unconditional constant equal to 1.

    We analyze dynamical instability of non-static reflection axial stellar structure by taking into account generalized Euler&#39;s equation in metric $f(R)$ gravity. Such an equation is obtained by contracting Bianchi identities of usual anisotropic and effective stress-energy tensors, which after using radial perturbation technique gives modified collapse equ

    We study the evolution of planetesimals in evolved gaseous disks, which orbit a solar-mass star and harbor a Jupiter-mass planet at a_p~5AU. The gas dynamics is modeled with a three-dimensional hydrodynamics code that employes nested-grids and achieves a resolution of one Jupiter&#39;s radius in the circumplanetary disk. The code models solids as individual

    It is well-known that the Ford-Fulkerson algorithm for finding a maximum flow in a network need not terminate if we allow the arc capacities to take irrational values. Every non-terminating example converges to a limit flow, but this limit flow need not be a maximum flow. Hence, one may pass to the limit and begin the algorithm again. In this way, we may vie

    In this paper, we consider the star operations for (graded) affine Hecke algebras which preserve certain natural filtrations. We show that, up to inner conjugation, there are only two such star operations for the graded Hecke algebra: the first, denoted $\star$, corresponds to the usual star operation from reductive $p$-adic groups, and the second, denoted $

    Networks form the backbone of many complex systems, ranging from the Internet to human societies. Accordingly, not only is the range of our interactions limited and thus best described and modeled by networks, it is also a fact that the networks that are an integral part of such models are often interdependent or even interconnected. Networks of networks or

    In recent years social and news media have increasingly been used to explain patterns in disease activity and progression. Social media data, principally from the Twitter network, has been shown to correlate well with official disease case counts. This fact has been exploited to provide advance warning of outbreak detection, tracking of disease levels and th
