Under relatively mild and natural conditions, we establish an integral period relations for the (real or imaginary) quadratic base change of an elliptic cusp form. This answers a conjecture of Hida regarding the {\it congruence number} controlling the congruences between this base change and other eigenforms which are not base change. As a corollary, we establish the Bloch-Kato conjecture for adjoint modular Galois representations twisted by an even quadratic character. In the odd case, we formulate a conjecture linking the degree two topological period attached to the base change Bianchi modular form, the cotangent complex of the corresponding Hecke algebra and the archimedean regulator attached to some Beilinson-Flach element.
We apply techniques of subriemannian geometry on Lie groups and of optimal synthesis on 2-D manifolds to the population transfer problem in a three-level quantum system driven by two laser pulses, of arbitrary shape and frequency. In the rotating wave approximation, we consider a nonisotropic model i.e. a model in which the two coupling constants of the lasers are different. The aim is to induce transitions from the first to the third level, minimizing 1) the time of the transition (with bounded laser amplitudes),   2) the energy of lasers (with fixed final time). After reducing the problem to real variables, for the purpose 1) we develop a theory of time optimal syntheses for distributional problem on 2-D-manifolds, while for the purpose 2) we use techniques of subriemannian geometry on 3-D Lie groups. The complete optimal syntheses are computed.
We complete the calculation of the wino-nucleon scattering cross section up to the next-to-leading order in $\alpha_s$. We assume that the other sparticles are decoupled and wino interacts with the Standard Model particles via the weak interaction. As a result, the uncertainties coming from the perturbative QCD are significantly reduced to be smaller than those from the nucleon matrix elements. The resultant scattering cross section is found to be larger than the leading-order one by about 70%, which is well above the neutrino background. In the limit of large wino mass the spin-independent scattering cross section with proton turns out $\sigma_{\text{SI}}^p = 2.3~{}^{+0.2}_{-0.3}~{}^{+0.5}_{-0.4}\times 10^{-47}~ \text{cm}^2$ (errors come from perturbative calculation and input parameters, respectively). The computation for a generic SU(2)$_L$ multiplet dark matter is also presented.
We obtain the dynamic correlation function of two-dimensional lattice gas with nearest-neighbor repulsion in ordered c(2$\times$2) phase (antiferromagnetic ordering) under the condition of low concentration of structural defects. It is shown that displacements of defects of the ordered state are responsible for the particle number fluctuations in the probe area. The corresponding set of kinetic equations is derived and solved in linear approximation on the defect concentration. Three types of strongly correlated complex jumps are considered and their contribution to fluctuations is analysed. These are jumps of excess particles, vacancies and flip-flop jumps. The kinetic approach is more general than the one based on diffusion-like equations used in our previous papers. Thus, it becomes possible to adequately describe correlations of fluctuations at small times, where our previous theory fails to give correct results. Our new analytical results for fluctuations of particle number in the probe area agree well with those obtained by Monte Carlo simulations.
Among the many proposals to approach the concept of time in quantum theory, the Page-Wootters mechanism has attracted much attention in the last few years. Originally, such a mechanism explored a stationary bipartite non-interacting global system, i.e., a system of interest together with an ancillary clock, to determine how the evolution in time can emerge as an equation of motion for a quantum particle conditioned to the measurement of the state of the clock. After the seminal proposal, many variations of it were considered, and different aspects of the mechanism were elucidated. Our contribution to these investigations is that we analyze such a timeless approach to quantum theory but deriving an equation of motion for a mixed state system that evolves according to its gravitationally induced interaction with a non-ideal quantum clock. The interaction considered is known to describe the gravitational decoherence mechanism, and the clock model is the recently proposed quasi-ideal clock, i.e., one constructed to approximate the time-energy canonical commutation relation. As a result of our considerations, we obtained an equation of motion that is non-linear in nature, dependent on the system's initial conditions.
We present new spectroscopic and photometric observations of the young Galactic open cluster Westerlund 1 (Wd 1) that reveal a unique population of massive evolved stars. We identify ~200 cluster members and present spectroscopic classifications for ~25% of these. We find that all stars so classified are unambiguously post-Main Sequence objects, consistent with an apparent lack of an identifiable Main Sequence in our photometric data to V~20. We are able to identify rich populations of Wolf Rayet stars, OB supergiants and short lived transitional objects. Of these, the latter group consists of both hot (Luminous Blue Variable and extreme B supergiants) and cool (Yellow Hypergiant and Red Supergiant) objects - we find that half the known Galactic population of YHGs resides within Wd1. We obtain a mean V-M_V ~25 mag from the cluster Yellow Hypergiants, implying a Main Sequence turnoff at or below M_V =-5 (O7 V or later). Based solely on the masses inferred for the 53 spectroscopically classified stars, we determine an absolute minimum mass of \~1.5 x 10^3 Msun for Wd 1. However, considering the complete photometrically and spectroscopically selected cluster population and adopting a Kroupa IMF we infer a likely mass for Wd 1 of ~10^5 Msun, noting that inevitable source confusion and incompleteness are likely to render this an underestimate. As such, Wd 1 is the most massive compact young cluster yet identified in the Local Group, with a mass exceeding that of Galactic Centre clusters such as the Arches and Quintuplet. Indeed, the luminosity, inferred mass and compact nature of Wd 1 are comparable with those of Super Star Clusters - previously identified only in external galaxies - and is consistent with expectations for a Globular Cluster progenitor.
Computations of the strong field generation of gravitational waves by black hole processes produce waveforms that are dominated by quasinormal (QN) ringing, a damped oscillation characteristic of the black hole. We describe here the mathematical problem of quantifying the QN content of the waveforms generated. This is done in several steps: (i) We develop the mathematics of QN systems that are complete (in a sense to be defined) and show that there is a quantity, the ``excitation coefficient,'' that appears to have the properties needed to quantify QN content. (ii) We show that incomplete systems can (at least sometimes) be converted to physically equivalent complete systems. Most notably, we give a rigorous proof of completeness for a specific modified model problem. (iii) We evaluate the excitation coefficient for the model problem, and demonstrate that the excitation coefficient is of limited utility. We finish by discussing the general question of quantification of QN excitations, and offer a few speculations about unavoidable differences between normal mode and QN systems.
We present a microscopic calculation of $\alpha$-cluster formation in heavy nuclei $^{104}$Te ($\alpha$+$^{100}$Sn), $^{212}$Po ($\alpha$+$^{208}$Pb) and their neighbors $^{102}$Sn, $^{102}$Te, $^{210}$Pb and $^{210}$Po by using the quartetting wave function approach. Improving the local density approximation, the shell structure of the core nucleus is considered, and the center-of-mass (c.o.m.) effective potential for the quartet is obtained self-consistently from the shell model wavefunctions. The $\alpha$-cluster formation and decay probabilities are obtained by solving the bound-state of the c.o.m. motion of the quartet and the scattering state of the formed $\alpha$-cluster in the Gurvitz approach. Striking shell effects on the $\alpha$-cluster formation probabilities are analyzed for magic numbers 50, 82 and 126. The computed $\alpha$-decay half-lives of these special nuclei are compared with the newest experimental data.
The Erd\H{o}s Pentagon problem asks to find an $n$-vertex triangle-free graph that is maximizing the number of $5$-cycles. The problem was solved using flag algebras by Grzesik and independently by Hatami, Hladk\'{y}, Kr\'{a}l', Norin, and Razborov. Recently, Palmer suggested the general problem of maximizing the number of $5$-cycles in $K_{k+1}$-free graphs. Using flag algebras, we show that every $K_{k+1}$-free graph of order $n$ contains at most \[\frac{1}{10k^4}(k^4 - 5k^3 + 10k^2 - 10k + 4)n^5 + o(n^5)\] copies of $C_5$ for any $k \geq 3$, with the Tur\'an graph begin the extremal graph for large enough $n$.
The main purpose of this work is to study uniform regularity estimates for a family of elliptic operators $\{\mathcal{L}_\varepsilon, \varepsilon>0\}$, arising in the theory of homogenization, with rapidly oscillating periodic coefficients. We establish sharp $W^{1,p}$ estimates, Lipschitz estimates, and nontangential maximal function estimates, which are uniform in the parameter $\varepsilon$, on solutions with Neumann boundary conditions in $C^{1,\alpha}$ domains.
We present IUE spectrophotometry and optical spectropolarimetry of the ultraluminous, extreme FeII-emitting QSO IRAS 07598+6508. We find broad absorption troughs from high- and low-ionization species, showing that this object is a member of the class of rare low-ionization BAL QSOs. Compared with non-BAL QSOs, the spectral energy distribution is reddened by E(B-V) sim 0.12, and the Halpha/Hbeta ratio even more reddened with E(B - V) sim 0.45. The broad emission lines are unpolarized. We see broad Na I lambda5892 absorption in the unpolarized continuum, but not in the polarized continuum (at the 5-6 sigma level). The polarized continuum rises smoothly towards shorter wavelengths with F_lambda propto lambda{-2}. We argue that a normal QSO continuum is polarized by scattering from a region within, or very near, the Broad Emission Line Region (BELR). Thus there are at least three distinct light paths to the observer: a dusty path from the BELR, a direct path traced by the unpolarized continuum, passing through dust and low-ionization gas (NaI), and another relatively unobscured path followed by scattered continuum. This provides direct evidence that a BAL region and dust only partially cover the central QSO.   Ultraluminous AGNs, including IRAS 07598+6508, appear no more IR-luminous than non-IRAS-selected QSOs, and have normal L(IR)/L(opt) ratios when the optical luminosities are corrected for reddening. Reddening and BALs occur only along some sight lines and the parent population of BALQs are `normal' QSOs.
We compare three naturally occurring multi-indexed filtrations of ideals on the local ring of a Newton nondegenerate hypersurface surface singularity with rational homology sphere, which in many cases are all distinct. These are the divisorial, the order, and the image filtrations. These filtrations are indexed by the lattice associated with a toric partial resolution of the singularity, or equivalently, the free abelian group generated by the compact facets of the Newton polyhedron. We prove that there exists a top dimensional cone contained in the Lipman cone having the property that the three ideals indexed by order vectors from this cone coincide. As a corollary, if a periodic constant can be associated with the Hilbert series associated with these filtrations on the Lipman cone, then they coincide. In some cases, the Poincar\'e series associated with one of these filtrations has been shown to coincide with a zeta function associated with the topological type of the singularity. In the end of the article, we show that this is the case for all three filtrations considered in the case of a Newton nondegenerate suspension singularity. As a corollary, in this case, the zeta function provides a direct method of determining the Newton diagram from the link.
The construction of a general effective lagrangian consistent with the symmetries of QCD and intended for applications to finite-density systems is discussed. The low-energy structure of the composite nucleon is described within the theory from vector-meson dominance. Results are given for finite nuclei and nuclear matter at one-loop order. All of the coupling constants, appropriately defined according to naive dimensonal analysis, are found to be natural.
In this work we extend the applicability of the microcanonical ensemble simulation method, originally proposed to study the Ising model (A. H\"uller and M. Pleimling, Int. Journal of Modern Physics C, 13, 947 (2002), arxiv:cond-mat/0110090), to the case of simple fluids. An algorithm is developed by measuring the transition rates probabilities between macroscopic states, that has as advantage with respect to conventional Monte Carlo NVT (MC-NVT) simulations that a continuous range of temperatures are covered in a single run. For a given density, this new algorithm provides the inverse temperature, that can be parametrized as a function of the internal energy, and the isochoric heat capacity is then evaluated through a numerical derivative. As an illustrative example we consider a fluid composed of particles interacting via a square-well (SW) pair potential of variable range. Equilibrium internal energies and isochoric heat capacities are obtained with very high accuracy compared with data obtained from MC-NVT simulations. These results are important in the context of the application of H\"uller-Pleimling method to discrete-potential systems, that are based on a generalization of the SW and Square-Shoulder fluids properties.
It is well-known that the equations for a simple fluid can be cast into what is called their Lagrange formulation. We introduce a notion of a generalized Lagrange formulation, which is applicable to a wide variety of systems of partial differential equations. These include numerous systems of physical interest, in particular, those for various material media in general relativity. There is proved a key theorem, to the effect that, if the original (Euler) system admits an initial-value formulation, then so does its generalized Lagrange formulation.
The mapping of dark matter clustering from real space to redshift space introduces the anisotropic property to the measured density power spectrum in redshift space, known as the redshift space distortion effect. The mapping formula is intrinsically non-linear, which is complicated by the higher order polynomials due to indefinite cross correlations between the density and velocity fields, and the Finger-of-God effect due to the randomness of the peculiar velocity field. Whilst the full higher order polynomials remain unknown, the other systematics can be controlled consistently within the same order truncation in the expansion of the mapping formula, as shown in this paper. The systematic due to the unknown non-linear density and velocity fields is removed by separately measuring all terms in the expansion directly using simulations. The uncertainty caused by the velocity randomness is controlled by splitting the FoG term into two pieces, 1) the "one-point" FoG term being independent of the separation vector between two different points, and 2) the "correlated" FoG term appearing as an indefinite polynomials which is expanded in the same order as all other perturbative polynomials. Using 100 realizations of simulations, we find that the Gaussian FoG function with only one scale-independent free parameter works quite well, and that our new mapping formulation accurately reproduces the observed 2-dimensional density power spectrum in redshift space at the smallest scales by far, up to $k\sim 0.2h$Mpc, considering the resolution of future experiments.
Extensive optical and ultraviolet (UV) observations of the type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2012fr are presented in this paper. It has a relatively high luminosity, with an absolute $B$-band peak magnitude of about $-19.5$ mag and a smaller post-maximum decline rate than normal SNe Ia [e.g., $\Delta m _{15}$($B$) $= 0.85 \pm 0.05$ mag]. Based on the UV and optical light curves, we derived that a $^{56}$Ni mass of about 0.88 solar masses was synthesized in the explosion. The earlier spectra are characterized by noticeable high-velocity features of \ion{Si}{2} $\lambda$6355 and \ion{Ca}{2} with velocities in the range of $\sim22,000$--$25,000$ km s$^{-1}$. At around the maximum light, these spectral features are dominated by the photospheric components which are noticeably narrower than normal SNe Ia. The post-maximum velocity of the photosphere remains almost constant at $\sim$12,000 km s$^{-1}$ for about one month, reminiscent of the behavior of some luminous SNe Ia like SN 1991T. We propose that SN 2012fr may represent a subset of the SN 1991T-like SNe Ia viewed in a direction with a clumpy or shell-like structure of ejecta, in terms of a significant level of polarization reported in Maund et al. (2013).
This Thesis reviews Vasiliev's approach to Higher-Spin Gauge Theory and contains some original results concerning new exact solutions of the Vasiliev equations and the representation theory of the higher-spin algebra. The review part covers the various formulations of the free theory as well as Vasiliev's full nonlinear equations, in particular focusing on their algebraic structure and on their properties in various space-time signatures. Then, the original results are presented. First, the 4D Vasiliev equations are formulated in space-times with signatures (4-p,p) and non-vanishing cosmological constant, and some new exact solutions are found, depending on continuous and discrete parameters: (a) an SO(4-p,p)-invariant family of solutions; (b) non-maximally symmetric solutions with vanishing Weyl tensors and higher-spin gauge fields, that differ from the maximally symmetric background solutions in the auxiliary field sector; and (c) solutions of the chiral models with an infinite tower of Weyl tensors proportional to totally symmetric products of two principal spinors. These are apparently the first exact 4D solutions with non-vanishing massless higher-spin fields. Finally, a generalized harmonic expansion of the Vasiliev's master zero-form is performed as a map from the associative algebra A of operators on the singleton phase space to representations of the background isometry algebra that include one-particle states along with linearized runaway solutions. Such Harish-Chandra modules are unitarizable in a Tr_A-norm rather than in the standard Killing norm. We also take the first steps towards a regularization scheme for handling strongly coupled higher-derivative interactions within this operator formalism.
We have studied the time evolution of the electron spin polarization under continuous photoexcitation in remotely n-doped semiconductor quantum wells. The doped region allows us to get the necessary excess of free electrons to form trions. We have considered electron resonant photoexcitation at free, exciton and trion electron energy levels. Also, we have studied the relative effect of photoexcitation energy density and doping concentration. In order to obtain the two-dimensional density evolution of the different species, we have performed dynamic calculations through the matrix density formalism. Our results indicate that photoexcitation of free electron level leads to a higher spin polarization. Also, we have found that increasing the photoexcitation energy or diminishing the doping enhances spin polarization.
We prove that the scale and shift parameters of a family of probability laws can be identified from quantized values, under appropriate assumptions. As an application, we show the consistency of the maximum likelihood estimator for the parameters of a quantized Gaussian autoregressive process.
Massive arbitrary spin supermultiplets and massless (scalar and spin one-half) supermultiplets of the N=2 Poincare superalgebra in three-dimensional flat space are considered. Both the integer spin and half-integer spin supermultiplets are studied. For such massive and massless supermultiplets, a formulation in terms of light-cone gauge unconstrained superfields defined in a momentum superspace is developed. For the supermultiplets under consideration a superspace first derivative representation for all cubic interaction vertices is obtained. A superspace representation for dynamical generators of the N=2 Poincare superalgebra is also found.
Here we discuss advances in the field of quantum machine learning. The following document offers a hybrid discussion; both reviewing the field as it is currently, and suggesting directions for further research. We include both algorithms and experimental implementations in the discussion. The field's outlook is generally positive, showing significant promise. However, we believe there are appreciable hurdles to overcome before one can claim that it is a primary application of quantum computation.
In this paper we extend the concept of energy to signed digraphs. We obtain Coulson's integral formula for energy of signed digraphs. Formulae for energies of signed directed cycles are computed and it is shown that energy of non cycle balanced signed directed cycles increases monotonically with respect to number of vertices. Characterization of signed digraphs having energy equal to zero is given. We extend the concept of non complete extended $p$ sum (or briefly, NEPS) to signed digraphs. An infinite family of equienergetic signed digraphs is constructed. Moreover, we extend McClelland's inequality to signed digraphs and also obtain sharp upper bound for energy of signed digraph in terms the number of arcs. Some open problems are also given at the end.
The classical statement of Cayley-Salmon that there are 27 lines on every smooth cubic surface in P^3 fails to hold under tropicalization: a tropical cubic surface in TP^3 often contains infinitely many tropical lines. Under mild genericity assumptions, we show that when embedded using the Eckardt triangles in the anticanonical system, tropical cubic del Pezzo surfaces contain exactly 27 tropical lines. In the non-generic case, which we identify explicitly, we find up to 27 extra lines, no multiple of which lifts to a curve on the cubic surface.   We realize the moduli space of stable anticanonical tropical cubics as a four-dimensional fan in R^40 with an action of the Weyl group W(E_6). In the absence of Eckardt points, we show the combinatorial types of these tropical surfaces are determined by the boundary arrangement of 27 metric trees corresponding to the tropicalization of the classical 27 lines on the smooth algebraic cubic surfaces. Tropical convexity and the combinatorics of the root system E_6 play a central role in our analysis.
In this article we are interested in quantitative homogenization results for linear elliptic equations in the non-stationary situation of a straight interface between two heterogenous media. This extends the previous work [Josien, 2019] to a substantially more general setting, in which the surrounding heterogeneous media may be periodic or random stationary and ergodic. Our main result is a quantification of the sublinearity of a homogenization corrector adapted to the interface, which we construct using an improved version of the method developed in [Fischer and Raithel, 2017]. This quantification is optimal up to a logarithmic loss and allows to derive almost-optimal convergence rates.
