We calculate using perturbative calculations and Ward identities the basic parameters of the Fermi Liquid: the scattering vertex, the Landau interaction function, the effective mass, specific heat, and physical susceptibilities for a model of two-dimensional (2D) fermions with a short ranged interaction at non-zero temperature. The leading temperature dependence of the spin components of the scattering vertex, the Landau function, and the spin susceptibility is found to be linear. We find that the standard T=0 relationships for a Galilean-invariant Fermi Liquid are violated by finite-temperature terms. The coefficients in the temperature corrections to these relationships involve a subtle interplay between contributions from small and large ($\sim 2k_F$) momentum processes. A connection with previous studies of the 2D Fermi-Liquid parameters is discussed. We conclude that the linear leading temperature dependence of the parameters is a generic feature of the 2D Fermi Liquid.
The following Proposition is a positive answer to a question about cancellations between permutations that arises in a model problem in the many body theory of Fermions. It concerns the mathematically rigorous implementation of the Pauli exclusion principle.
Tensor-optimized antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (TOAMD) is the basis of the successive variational method for nuclear many-body problem. We apply TOAMD to finite nuclei to be described by the central interaction with strong short-range repulsion, and compare the results with the unitary correlation operator method (UCOM). In TOAMD, the pair-type correlation functions and their multiple products are operated to the AMD wave function. We show the results of TOAMD using the Malfliet-Tjon central potential containing the strong short-range repulsion. Adding the double products of the correlation functions in TOAMD, the binding energies are converged quickly to the exact values of the few-body calculations for s-shell nuclei. This indicates the high efficiency of TOAMD for treating the short-range repulsion in nuclei. We also employ the s-wave configurations of nuclei with the central part of UCOM, which reduces the short-range relative amplitudes of nucleon pair in nuclei to avoid the short-range repulsion. In UCOM, we further perform the superposition of the s-wave configurations with various size parameters, which provides a satisfactory solution of energies close to the exact and TOAMD values.
It is well-known that the maximal particle in a branching Brownian motion sits near $\sqrt2 t - \frac{3}{2\sqrt2}\log t$ at time $t$. One may then ask about the paths of particles near the frontier: how close can they stay to this critical curve? Two different approaches to this question have been developed. We improve upon the best-known bounds in each case, revealing new qualitative features including marked differences between the two approaches.
Let $\Phi$ be a nuclear space and let $\Phi'_{\beta}$ denote its strong dual. In this paper we introduce sufficient conditions for a cylindrical process in $\Phi'$ to have a version that is a $\Phi'_{\beta}$-valued continuous or c\'{a}dl\'{a}g process. We also establish sufficient conditions for the existence of such a version taking values and having finite moments in a Hilbert space continuously embedded in $\Phi'_{\beta}$. Finally, we apply our results to the study of properties of cylindrical martingales in $\Phi'$.
The VST (VLT Survey Telescope) is a 2.6 m class Alt-Az telescope to be installed on Cerro Paranal in the Atacama desert, Northern Chile, in the European Southern Observatory (ESO) site. The VST is a wide-field imaging facility planned to supply databases for the ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT) science and carry out stand-alone observations in the UV to I spectral range. So far no telescope has been dedicated entirely to surveys; the VST will be the first survey telescope to start the operation, as a powerful survey facility for the VLT observatory. This paper will focus on the axes motion control system. The dynamic model of the telescope will be analyzed, as well as the effect of the wind disturbance on the telescope performance. Some algorithms for the telescope position control will be briefly discussed.
Three interrelated questions concerning Kerr spacetime late-time scalar-field tails are considered numerically, specifically the evolutions of generic and non-generic initial data sets, the excitation of "up" modes, and the resolution of an apparent paradox related to the superposition principle. We propose to generalize the Barack-Ori formula for the decay rate of any tail multipole given a generic initial data set, to the contribution of any initial multipole mode. Our proposal leads to a much simpler expression for the late-time power law index. Specifically, we propose that the late-time decay rate of the $Y_{\ell m}$ spherical harmonic multipole moment because of an initial $Y_{\ell' m}$ multipole is independent of the azimuthal number $m$, and is given by $t^{-n}$, where $n=\ell'+\ell+1$ for $\ell<\ell'$ and $n=\ell'+\ell+3$ for $\ell\ge\ell'$. We also show explicitly that the angular symmetry group of a multipole does not determine its late-time decay rate.
Stable non-BPS states can be constructed and studied in a variety of contexts in string theory. Here we review some interesting constructions that arise from suspended and wrapped branes. We also exhibit some stable non-BPS states that have holographic duals.
In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations with repulsive inverse-power potentials   \[   i \partial_t u + \Delta u - c |x|^{-\sigma} u = \pm |u|^\alpha u, \quad c>0.   \] We study the local and global well-posedness, finite time blow-up and scattering in the energy space $H^1$ for the equation. These results extend a recent work of Miao-Zhang-Zheng [Nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with coulomb potential, arXiv:1809.06685] to a general class of inverse-power potentials and higher dimensions.
We investigate sampling procedures that certify that an arbitrary quantum state on $n$ subsystems is close to an ideal mixed state $\varphi^{\otimes n}$ for a given reference state $\varphi$, up to errors on a few positions. This task makes no sense classically: it would correspond to certifying that a given bitstring was generated according to some desired probability distribution. However, in the quantum case, this is possible if one has access to a prover who can supply a purification of the mixed state.   In this work, we introduce the concept of mixed-state certification, and we show that a natural sampling protocol offers secure certification in the presence of a possibly dishonest prover: if the verifier accepts then he can be almost certain that the state in question has been correctly prepared, up to a small number of errors.   We then apply this result to two-party quantum coin-tossing. Given that strong coin tossing is impossible, it is natural to ask "how close can we get". This question has been well studied and is nowadays well understood from the perspective of the bias of individual coin tosses. We approach and answer this question from a different---and somewhat orthogonal---perspective, where we do not look at individual coin tosses but at the global entropy instead. We show how two distrusting parties can produce a common high-entropy source, where the entropy is an arbitrarily small fraction below the maximum (except with negligible probability).
In this short note we perform canonical analysis of Schrodinger field and non-relativistic electrodynamics coupled to Newton-Cartan gravity. We identify physical degrees of freedom and analyze constraints structure of these theories.
A classical and a relativistic law of motion for a supernova remnant (SNR) are deduced assuming an inverse power law behavior for the density of the interstellar medium and applying the thin layer approximation. A third equation of motion is found in the framework of relativistic hydrodynamics with pressure, applying momentum conservation. These new formulas are calibrated against a decade of observations of \snr. The existing knowledge of the diffusive processes of ultrarelativistic electrons is reviewed in order to explain the behavior of the `U' shaped profile of intensity versus distance from the center of SN 1993J.
We study asymptotic behaviors near the boundary of complete metrics of constant curvature in planar singular domains and establish an optimal estimate of these metrics by the corresponding metrics in tangent cones near isolated singular points on boundary. The conformal structure plays an essential role.
Let $U/L$ be a finite abelian extension of number fields. We first construct a universal primitive generator of $U$ over $L$ whose relative trace to any intermediate field $F$ becomes a generator of $F$ over $L$, too. We also develop a similar argument in terms of norm. As its examples we investigate towers of ray class fields over imaginary quadratic fields. And, we further present a new method of finding a normal element for the extension $U/L$.
In simulations of high energy heavy ion collisions that employ viscous hydrodynamics, single particle distributions are distorted from their thermal equilibrium form due to gradients in the flow velocity. These are closely related to the formulas for the shear and bulk viscosities in the quasi-particle approximation. Distorted single particle distributions are now commonly used to calculate the emission of photons and dilepton pairs, and in the late stage to calculate the conversion of a continuous fluid to individual particles. We show how distortions of the single particle distribution functions due to both shear and bulk viscous effects can be done rigorously in the quasi-particle approximation and illustrate it with the linear $\sigma$ model at finite temperature.
In this paper, we use (bi)semicosimplicial language to study the classical problem of infinitesimal deformations of a closed subscheme in a fixed smooth variety, defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. In particular, we give an explicit description of the differential graded Lie algebra controlling this problem.
Hashing methods have been recently found very effective in retrieval of remote sensing (RS) images due to their computational efficiency and fast search speed. The traditional hashing methods in RS usually exploit hand-crafted features to learn hash functions to obtain binary codes, which can be insufficient to optimally represent the information content of RS images. To overcome this problem, in this paper we introduce a metric-learning based hashing network, which learns: 1) a semantic-based metric space for effective feature representation; and 2) compact binary hash codes for fast archive search. Our network considers an interplay of multiple loss functions that allows to jointly learn a metric based semantic space facilitating similar images to be clustered together in that target space and at the same time producing compact final activations that lose negligible information when binarized. Experiments carried out on two benchmark RS archives point out that the proposed network significantly improves the retrieval performance under the same retrieval time when compared to the state-of-the-art hashing methods in RS.
We have recently shown that the 3-parameter density-profile model from Prugniel & Simien provides a better fit to simulated, galaxy- and cluster-sized, dark matter halos than an NFW-like model with arbitrary inner profile slope gamma (Paper I). By construction, the parameters of the Prugniel-Simien model equate to those of the Sersic R^{1/n} function fitted to the projected distribution. Using the Prugniel-Simien model, we are therefore able to show that the location of simulated (10^{12} M_sun) galaxy-sized dark matter halos in the <mu>_e-log(R_e) diagram coincides with that of brightest cluster galaxies, i.e., the dark matter halos appear consistent with the Kormendy relation defined by luminous elliptical galaxies. These objects are also seen to define the new, and equally strong, relation log(rho_e) = 0.5 - 2.5log(R_e), in which rho_e is the internal density at r=R_e. Simulated (10^{14.5} M_sun) cluster-sized dark matter halos and the gas component of real galaxy clusters follow the relation log(rho_e) = 2.5[1 - log(R_e)]. Given the shapes of the various density profiles, we are able to conclude that while dwarf elliptical galaxies and galaxy clusters can have dark matter halos with effective radii of comparable size to the effective radii of their baryonic component, luminous elliptical galaxies can not. For increasingly large elliptical galaxies, with increasingly large profile shapes `n', to be dark matter dominated at large radii requires dark matter halos with increasingly large effective radii compared to the effective radii of their stellar component.
Bermann [ Nuovo Cimento B (1983), 74, 182 ] presented a law of variation of Hubble parameter that yields constant deceleration parameter models of the Universe. In this paper, we study some cosmological models with negative constant deceleration parameter within the framework of Lyra geometry.
In this paper, we show the existence and uniqueness of a strong solution to stochastic 3D tamed Navier-Stokes equations driven by multiplicative Levy noise with periodic boundary conditions. Then we establish the large deviation principles of the strong solution on the state space $\mathcal{D}([0,T];\mathbb{H}^1)$, where the weak convergence approach plays a key role.
Using local detailed balance we rewrite the Kirchhoff formula for stationary distribution of Markov jump processes in terms of a physically interpretable tree-ensemble. We use that arborification of path-space integration to derive a McLennan-tree characterization close to equilibrium, as well as to obtain response formula for the stationary distribution in the asymptotic regime of large driving. Graphical expressions of currents and of traffic are obtained, allowing the study of various asymptotic regimes. Finally, we present how the matrix-forest theorem gives a representation of quasi-potentials, as used e.g. for computing excess work and heat in nonequilibrium thermal physics. A variety of examples illustrate and explain the graph elements and constructions.
We study the three positivity constraints among the eight virtual photon structure functions, derived from the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality and which are hence model-independent. The photon structure functions obtained from the simple parton model show quite different behaviors in a massive quark or a massless quark case, but they satisfy, in both cases, the three positivity constraints. We then discuss an inequality which holds among the unpolarized and polarized photon structure functions $F_1^\gamma$, $g_1^\gamma$ and $W_{TT}^\tau$, in the kinematic region $\Lambda^2\ll P^2 \ll Q^2$, where $-Q^2 (-P^2)$ is the mass squared of the probe (target) photon, and we examine whether this inequality is satisfied by the perturbative QCD results.
We consider the following Scr\"odinger system $$\begin{cases}\displaystyle i\partial_t u + \Delta u +(|u|^2+\beta |v|^2) u= 0, \\ \displaystyle i\partial_t v + \Delta v +(|v|^2+\beta |u|^2) v = 0,\end{cases}$$ with initial data $(u_0,v_0) \in H^1(\mathbb{R} ^3)\times H^1(\mathbb{R}^3)$ at the so-called \textit{mass-energy threshold}, i.e., such that %$\mathcal{ME}(u_0,v_0) = 1$. $M(u_0,v_0)E(u_0,v_0) = M(\phi,\psi)E(\phi,\psi)$, where $(\phi,\psi)$ is a ground state. For a suitable range of values of $\beta>0$, we show the existence of special solutions to this system, which converge to a standing wave solution in one time direction, and either blows up or scatters in the opposite direction. Moreover, we classify general solutions at the ground state, showing a rigidity result regarding the possible long-time behaviors that might occur. Our results do not rely on the uniqueness of the corresponding ground state: indeed, the main results hold even in the case where the Weinstein functional is known to have more than one optimizer.
In this thesis, we consider one of the most popular models of non-equilibrium statistical physics: the Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process, in which particles jump stochastically on a one-dimensional lattice, between two reservoirs at fixed densities, with the constraint that each site can hold at most one particle at a given time. This model has the mathematical property of being integrable, which makes it a good candidate for exact calculations. What interests us in particular is the current of particles that flows through the system (which is a sign of it being out of equilibrium), and how it fluctuates with time. We present a method, based on the "matrix Ansatz" devised by Derrida, Evans, Hakim and Pasquier, that allows to access the exact cumulants of that current, for any finite size of the system and any value of its parameters. We also analyse the large size asymptotics of our result, and make a conjecture for the phase diagram of the system in the so-called "s-ensemble". Finally, we show how our method relates to the algebraic Bethe Ansatz, which was thought not to be applicable to this situation.
In the Bondi-Sachs formulation of General Relativity space-time is foliated via a family of null cones. If these null cones are defined such that their vertices are traced by a regular world-line then the metric tensor has to obey regularity conditions at the vertices. We explore these regularity conditions when the world line is a time-like geodesic. In particular, we solve the Einstein equations for the Bondi-Sachs metric near the vertices for axially symmetric vacuum space- times. The metric is calculated up to third order corrections with respect to a flat metric along the time-like geodesic, as this is the lowest order where non- linear coupling of the metric coefficients occurs. We also determine the boundary conditions of the metric to arbitrary order of these corrections when a linearized and axially symmetric vacuum space-time is assumed. In both cases we find that (i) the initial data on the null cone must have a very rigid angular structure for the vertex to be a regular point, and (ii) the initial data are determined by functions depending only on the time of a geodesic observer tracing the vertex. The latter functions can be prescribed freely, but if the vertex is assumed to be regular they must be finite and have finite derivatives along the geodesic.
We have developed a software package CALYPSO (Crystal structure AnaLYsis by Particle Swarm Optimization) to predict the energetically stable/metastable crystal structures of materials at given chemical compositions and external conditions (e.g., pressure). The CALYPSO method is based on several major techniques (e.g. particle-swarm optimization algorithm, symmetry constraints on structural generation, bond characterization matrix on elimination of similar structures, partial random structures per generation on enhancing structural diversity, and penalty function, etc) for global structural minimization from scratch. All of these techniques have been demonstrated to be critical to the prediction of global stable structure. We have implemented these techniques into the CALYPSO code. Testing of the code on many known and unknown systems shows high efficiency and high successful rate of this CALYPSO method [Wang et al., Phys. Rev. B 82 (2010) 094116][1]. In this paper, we focus on descriptions of the implementation of CALYPSO code and why it works.
The exponential rate of convergence for some Markov operators is established. The operators correspond to continuous iterated function systems which are a very useful tool in some cell cycle models.
This note supplements our paper "Induced nets and Hamiltonicity of claw-free graphs", by giving the detailed proof that were omitted in it.
Electron transport in a quantum wire with leads is investigated with actual Coulomb interaction taken into account. The latter includes both the direct interaction of electrons with each other and their interaction via the image charges induced in the leads. Exact analytical solution of the problem is found with the use of the bosonization technique for one-dimensional electrons and three-dimensional Poisson equation for the electric field. The Coulomb interaction is shown to change significantly the electron density distribution along the wire as compared with the Luttinger liquid model with short-range interactions. In DC and low frequency regimes, the Coulomb interaction causes the charge density to increase strongly in the vicinity of the contacts with the leads. The quantum wire impedance shows an oscillating behavior versus the frequency caused by the resonances of the charge waves. The Coulomb interaction produces a frequency dependent renormalization of the charge wave velocity.
We demonstrate a novel strong law of large numbers for branching processes, with a simple proof via measure-theoretic manipulations and spine theory. Roughly speaking, any sequence of events that eventually occurs almost surely for the spine entails the almost sure convergence of a certain sum over particles in the population.
A new expression for the characteristic function of log-spot in Heston model is presented. This expression more clearly exhibits its properties as an analytic characteristic function and allows us to compute the exact domain of the moment generating function. This result is then applied to the volatility smile at extreme strikes and to the control of the moments of spot. We also give a factorization of the moment generating function as product of Bessel type factors, and an approximating sequence to the law of log-spot is deduced.
We report the codiscovery of the spatially-resolved dust disk of the Vega-like star HR 4796A. Images of the thermal dust emission at $\lambda = 18 \mu$m show an elongated structure approximately 200 AU in diameter surrounding the central A0V star. The position angle of the disk, $30^{\circ} \pm 10^{\circ}$, is consistent to the position angle of the M companion star, $225^{\circ}$, suggesting that the disk-binary system is being seen nearly along its orbital plane. The surface brightness distribution of the disk is consistent with the presence of an inner disk hole of approximately 50 AU radius, as was originally suggested by Jura et al. on the basis of the infrared spectrum. HR 4796 is a unique system among the Vega-like or $\beta$ Pictoris stars in that the M star companion (a weak-emission T Tauri star) shows that the system is relatively young, $\sim 8 \pm 3$ Myr. The inner disk hole may provide evidence for coagulation of dust into larger bodies on a timescale similar to that suggested for planet formation in the solar system.
The cohomology algebra of the canonical bundle of a compact K\"ahler manifold is naturally viewed as a module over an exterior algebra. We use the Bernstein-Gel'fand-Gel'fand correspondence, together with Generic Vanishing theory, in order to understand the regularity properties of this module. We also relate it to the infinitesimal theory of the canonical linear series inside paracanonical space. Finally, we apply vector bundle methods on the polynomial ring side to obtain inequalities for the holomorphic Euler characteristic and the Hodge numbers of compact K\"ahler manifolds without irregular fibrations.
The complete form of the constraints following from their conformal structure is extended so as to include constant mean curvature and other mean curvature foliations. This step is demonstrated using the momentum phase space approach. This approach yields equations of exactly the same form as the extended conformal thin sandwich approach. In solving the equations, it is never necessary actually to perform a tensor decomposition.
