Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a perfect field $k$. We study a certain normal reductive monoid $\overline M$ associated to a parabolic $k$-subgroup $P$ of $G$. The group of units of $\overline M$ is the Levi factor $M$ of $P$. We show that $\overline M$ is a retract of the affine closure of the quasi-affine variety $G/U(P)$. Fixing a parabolic $P^-$ opposite to $P$, we prove that the affine closure of $G/U(P)$ is a retract of the affine closure of the boundary degeneration $(G \times G)/(P \times_M P^-)$. Using idempotents, we relate $\overline M$ to the Vinberg semigroup of $G$. The monoid $\overline M$ is used implicitly in the study of stratifications of Drinfeld's compactifications of the moduli stacks $\mathrm{Bun}_P$ and $\mathrm{Bun}_G$.
Using Monte Carlo simulations we calculate $f_c$, the fraction of nodes which are randomly removed before global connectivity is lost, for networks with scale-free and bimodal degree distributions. Our results differ with the results predicted by an equation for $f_c$ proposed by Cohen, et al. We discuss the reasons for this disagreement and clarify the domain for which the proposed equation is valid.
We define the {\it rest-frame instant form} of tetrad gravity restricted to Christodoulou-Klainermann spacetimes. After a study of the Hamiltonian group of gauge transformations generated by the 14 first class constraints of the theory, we define and solve the multitemporal equations associated with the rotation and space diffeomorphism constraints, finding how the cotriads and their momenta depend on the corresponding gauge variables. This allows to find quasi-Shanmugadhasan canonical transformation to the class of 3-orthogonal gauges and to find the Dirac observables for superspace in these gauges.   The construction of the explicit form of the transformation and of the solution of the rotation and supermomentum constraints is reduced to solve a system of elliptic linear and quasi-linear partial differential equations. We then show that the superhamiltonian constraint becomes the Lichnerowicz equation for the conformal factor of the 3-metric and that the last gauge variable is the momentum conjugated to the conformal factor. The gauge transformations generated by the superhamiltonian constraint perform the transitions among the allowed foliations of spacetime, so that the theory is independent from its 3+1 splittings. In the special 3-orthogonal gauge defined by the vanishing of the conformal factor momentum we determine the final Dirac observables for the gravitational field even if we are not able to solve the Lichnerowicz equation. The final Hamiltonian is the weak ADM energy restricted to this completely fixed gauge.
We present the visual orbits of four spectroscopic binary stars, HD 61859, HD 89822, HD 109510, and HD 191692, using long baseline interferometry with the CHARA Array. We also obtained new radial velocities from echelle spectra using the APO 3.5 m, CTIO 1.5 m, and Fairborn Observatory 2.0 m telescopes. By combining the astrometric and spectroscopic observations, we solve for the full, three-dimensional orbits and determine the stellar masses to 1-12% uncertainty and distances to 0.4-6% uncertainty. We then estimate the effective temperature and radius of each component star through Doppler tomography and spectral energy distribution analyses. We found masses of 1.4-3.5 Msun, radii of 1.5-4.7 Rsun, and temperatures of 6400-10300K. We then compare the observed stellar parameters to the predictions of the stellar evolution models, but found that only one of our systems fits well with the evolutionary models.
Context: B[e] supergiants are known to have non-spherical winds, and the existence of disks that are neutral in hydrogen close to their stellar surface has been postulated. A suitable mechanism to produce non-spherical winds seems to be rapid rotation, and at least for three B[e] supergiants in the Magellanic Clouds rotation velocities at a substantial fraction of their critical velocity have been found. Aims: We want to find suitable recombination distances in the equatorial plane of rapidly rotating stars that explain the observed huge amounts of neutral material in the vicinity of B[e] supergiants. Methods: We perform ionization structure calculations in the equatorial plane around rapidly rotating luminous supergiants. The restriction to the equatorial plane allows us to treat the ionization balance equations 1-dimensionally, while the stellar radiation field is calculated 2-dimensionally, taking into account the latitudinal variation of the stellar surface parameters. The stellar parameters used correspond to those known for B[e] supergiants. The assumptions made in the computations all have in common that the total number of available ionizing photons at any location within the equatorial plane is overestimated, resulting in upper limits for the recombination distances. Results: We find that despite the drop in equatorial surface density of rapidly rotating stars (neglecting effects like bi-stability and/or wind compression), hydrogen and helium recombine at or close to the stellar surface, for mass loss rates Mdot > 5d-5 M_sun/yr and rotation speeds in excess of v(rot,eq)/v(crit)=0.8.
We develop information-theoretic measures of spatial structure and pattern in more than one dimension. As is well known, the entropy density of a two-dimensional configuration can be efficiently and accurately estimated via a converging sequence of conditional entropies. We show that the manner in which these conditional entropies converge to their asymptotic value serves as a measure of global correlation and structure for spatial systems in any dimension. We compare and contrast entropy-convergence with mutual-information and structure-factor techniques for quantifying and detecting spatial structure.
We propose an optimal method exploiting second order quantum phase transitions to perform high precision measurements of the control parameter at criticality. Our approach accesses the high fidelity susceptibility via the measurement of first- and second-moments of the order parameter and overcomes the difficulties of existing methods based on the overlap between nearby quantum states, which is hardly detectable in many-body systems. We experimentally demonstrate the feasibility of the method with a Bose-Einstein condensate undergoing a symmetry-breaking quantum phase transition as a function of the attractive inter-particle interaction strength. Our moment-based fidelity susceptibility shows a clear peak that, at the same time, detects the quantum critical point at finite temperature without any model-dependent fit to the data and certifies high sensitivity in parameter-estimation.
The electromagnetic form factors of the exotic baryons are calculated in the framework of the relativistic quark model at small and intermediate momentum transfer. The charge radii of the E+++ baryons are determined.
In this paper, we prove that the 1D Cauchy problem of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations admits a unique global classical solution $(\rho,\rm u)$ if the viscosity $\mu(\rho)=1+\rho^{\beta}$ with $\beta\geq0$. The initial data can be arbitrarily large and may contain vacuum.   Some new weighted estimates of the density and velocity are obtained when deriving higher order estimates of the solution.
This article proposes a derivation of the Vlasov-Navier-Stokes system for spray/aerosol flows. The distribution function of the dispersed phase is governed by a Vlasov-equation, while the velocity field of the propellant satisfies the Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible fluids. The dynamics of the dispersed phase and of the propellant are coupled through the drag force exerted by the propellant on the dispersed phase. We present a formal derivation of this model from a multiphase Boltzmann system for a binary gaseous mixture, involving the droplets/dust particles in the dispersed phase as one species, and the gas molecules as the other species. Under suitable assumptions on the collision kernels, we prove that the sequences of solutions to the multiphase Boltzmann system converge to distributional solutions to the Vlasov-Navier-Stokes equation in some appropriate distinguished scaling limit. Specifically, we assume (a) that the mass ratio of the gas molecules to the dust particles/droplets is small, (b) that the thermal speed of the dust particles/droplets is much smaller than that of the gas molecules and (c) that the mass density of the gas and of the dispersed phase are of the same order of magnitude.
We present new models of the rho-meson leading-twist light-cone distribution amplitudes based on the QCD sum rule approach with nonlocal condensates. Their shapes differ noticeably from that known in the literature. The phenomenological consequences for physically important process B --> rho e nu are discussed in the framework of the light-cone sum rules. The results are compared with those found recently by P.Ball and V.M.Braun (1997).
We have examined cutoffs and pile-ups due to various processes in the spectra of particles produced by shock acceleration, and found that, even in the absence of energy losses, the shape of the spectrum of accelerated particles at energies well below the nominal maximum energy depends strongly on the energy dependence of the diffusion coefficient. This has implications in many areas, for example, in fitting the observed cosmic ray spectrum with models based on power-law source spectra and rigidity dependent diffusive escape from the galaxy. With continuous energy losses, prominent pile-ups may arise, and these should be included when modelling synchrotron X-ray and inverse Compton gamma-ray spectra from a shock-accelerated electron population.   We have developed a Monte Carlo/numerical technique to model the shape of the spectrum for the case of non-continuous energy losses such as inverse Compton scattering in the Klein-Nishina regime. We find that the shapes of the resulting cut-offs differ substantially from those arising from continuous processes, and we suggest that such differences could be observable through their effect on the spectrum of radiation emitted by a population of recently accelerated electrons as, for example, may exist in young supernova remnants.
The JIMWLK framework offers a powerful tool to calculate the energy dependence of QCD observables at high energies. Despite a growing number of observables considered for phenomenological analysis, few features of JIMWLK evolution beyond its evolution speed are yet well constrained by experiment. We argue that meson production cross-sections have the potential to provide qualitatively new insights and allow to address issues both beyond the large-N_c limit and at higher twist. These cross-sections generically contain four point functions whose evolution is shown to follow from the JIMWLK framework. The Gaussian truncation is used to provide an efficient and practical means of calculating the evolution of four point correlators beyond the large-N_c limit.
Semiconductor-superconductor hybrid systems provide a promising platform for hosting unpaired Majorana fermions towards the realisation of fault-tolerant topological quantum computing. In this study, we employ the Keldysh Non-Equilibrium Green's function formalism to model quantum transport in normal-superconductor junctions. We analyze III-V semiconductor nanowire Josephson junctions (InAs/Nb) using a three-dimensional discrete lattice model described by the Bogolubov-de Gennes Hamiltonian in the tight-binding approximation, and compute the Andreev bound state spectrum and current-phase relations. Recent experiments [Zuo et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 119,187704 (2017)] and [Gharavi et al., arXiv:1405.7455v2 (2014)] reveal critical current oscillations in these devices, and our simulations confirm these to be an interference effect of the transverse sub-bands in the nanowire. We add disorder to model coherent scattering and study its effect on the critical current oscillations, with an aim to gain a thorough understanding of the experiments. The oscillations in the disordered junction are highly sensitive to the particular realisation of the random disorder potential, and to the gate voltage. A macroscopic current measurement thus gives us information about the microscopic profile of the junction. Finally, we study dephasing in the channel by including elastic phase-breaking interactions. The oscillations thus obtained are in good qualitative agreement with the experimental data, and this signifies the essential role of phase-breaking processes in III-V semiconductor nanowire Josephson junctions.
We consider an abelian N=4 super Yang-Mills theory coupled to background N=4 conformal supergravity fields. At the classical level, this coupling is invariant under global SU(1,1) transformation of the complex ("dilaton-axion") supergravity scalar combined with an on-shell vector-vector duality. We compute the divergent part of the corresponding quantum effective action found by integrating over the super Yang-Mills fields and demonstrate its SU(1,1) invariance. This divergent part related to the conformal anomaly is one-loop exact and should be given by the N=4 conformal supergravity action containing the Weyl tensor squared term. This allows us to determine the full non-linear form of the bosonic part of the N=4 conformal supergravity action which has manifest SU(1,1) invariance.
In order to clarify whether NGC 4631 has a unique magnetic field configuration in the central region along its disk, we present high-resolution Faraday-corrected polarization data. Radio continuum observations of NGC 4631 at 4.85 GHz were performed with the VLA. In addition, observations were made with the Effelsberg telescope at 4.85 GHz and at 8.35 GHz. These were analyzed together with archival VLA-data at 8.35 GHz. The vertical scale heights in NGC 4631 vary significantly in different regions within the galaxy and their mean values at 4.85 GHz are with 2.3 kpc (370 pc) for the thick (thin) disk higher than the mean values found so far in six other edge-on spiral galaxies. This may originate in the tidal interaction of NGC 4631 with its neighbouring galaxies. The total field strengths in the halo are of the order of the total magnetic field strength in the disk, whereas the ordered field strengths in the halo seem to be higher than the value in the disk. The derived distribution of rotation measures implies that NGC 4631 has a large-scale regular magnetic field configuration. Despite the strong Faraday depolarization along the galactic plane and the strong beam depolarization in the transition zone between the disk and halo, our research strongly indicates that the magnetic field orientation along the central 5-7 kpc of the disk is also plane-parallel. Therefore, we claim that NGC 4631 also has a magnetic field structure plane-parallel along its entire disk.
We explore the backreaction model based on the template metric proposed in Larena et al. (2008) constraining the matter density parameter $\Omega_m^{D_0}$ and the Dark Energy parameter $w$ with recent data. We provide constraints based on Supernovae Ia from the SNLS and the Union2.1 catalogs, confirming that the backreacted Universe should have a higher matter density than the corresponding Friedmaniann one. Angular diameter distances from clusters data confirm the same feature. Finally we combine these results with constraints obtained from the position of the first three peaks and the first dip of the CMB power spectrum, fitting WMAP-9 and Planck data. We find that an inconsistency arises in predicting the scale factor at recombination, leading to a backreacted Universe with lower matter density, in contradiction with results produced by SnIa and clusters. The same behavior is confirmed by analyzing the CMB-shift parameters from WMAP-9. We conclude exploring qualitatively the motivations of this inconsistency.
We show for a class of sequences $(a_n)_{n\geq 1}$ of distinct positive integers, that for no $\alpha$ the sequence $(\left\{a_n \alpha \right\})_{n \geq 1}$ does have Poissonian pair correlation. This class contains for example all strictly increasing integer sequences with positive upper density. This result motivates us to state a certain conjecture on Poissonian pair correlation which would be a significantly stronger version of a result of Jean Bourgain.
We introduce a variational wave-function to study the polaron formation when the electronic transfer integral depends on the relative displacement between nearest-neighbor sites giving rise to a non-local electron-phonon coupling with optical phonon modes. We analyze the ground state properties such as the energy, the electron-lattice correlation function, the phonon number and the spectral weight. Variational results are found in good agreement with analytic weak-coupling perturbative calculations and exact numerical diagonalization of small clusters. We determine the polaronic phase diagram and we find that the tendency towards strong localization is hindered from the pathological sign change of the effective next-nearest-neighbor hopping.
It is demonstrated that the complex scaling method can be used in practical calculations to localize three-body resonances. Our model example emphasizes the fact that in three-body systems several essentially different asymptotic behaviors can appear. We show that the possibility of these different asymptotic configurations can lead to an apparent, resonance like structure in the three-body continuum.
Based on the photometric data from the Spitzer/SAGE survey and with red giants as the extinction tracers, the mid-infrared (MIR) extinction laws in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) are derived for the first time in the form of A_\lambda/A_Ks, the extinction in the four IRAC bands (i.e., [3.6], [4.5], [5.8] and [8.0]um) relative to the 2MASS Ks band at 2.16um. We obtain the near-infrared (NIR) extinction coefficient to be E(J-H)/E(H-Ks)=1.29\pm0.04 and E(J-Ks)/E(H-Ks)=1.94\pm0.04. The wavelength dependence of the MIR extinction A_\lambda/A_Ks in the LMC varies from one sightline to another. The overall mean MIR extinction is A_[3.6]/A_Ks=0.72\pm0.03, A_[4.5]/A_Ks=0.94\pm0.03, A_[5.8]/A_Ks=0.58\pm0.04, and A_[8.0]/A_Ks=0.62\pm0.05. Except for the extinction in the IRAC [4.5] band which may be contaminated by the 4.6um CO gas absorption of red giants (which are used to trace the LMC extinction), the extinction in the other three IRAC bands show a flat curve, close to the Milky Way Rv = 5.5 model extinction curve (where Rv is the optical total-to-selective extinction ratio). The possible systematic bias caused by the correlated uncertainties of Ks-\lambda and J-Ks is explored in terms of Monte-Carlo simulations. It is found that this could lead to an overestimation of A_lambda/A_Ks in the MIR.
We study the influence of the strong nuclear vector potential, treated using the mean-field approximation, in deep inelastic scattering. A consistent treatment of the electromagnetic current operator, combined with the use of the operator product expansion is presented and discussed.
We report exact numerical diagonalization results of the infinite-range Ising spin glass in a transverse field $\Gamma$ at zero temperature. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors are determined for various strengths of $\Gamma$ and for system sizes $N \le 16$. We obtain the moments of the distribution of the spin-glass order parameter, the spin-glass susceptibility and the mass gap at different values of $\Gamma$. The disorder averaging is done typically over 1000 configurations. Our finite size scaling analysis indicates a spin glass transition at $\Gamma_c \simeq 1.5$. Our estimates for the exponents at the transition are in agreement with those known from other approaches. For the dynamic exponent, we get $z=2.1 \pm 0.1$ which is in contradiction with a recent estimate ($z=4$). Our cumulant analysis indicates the existence of a replica symmetric spin glass phase for $\Gamma < \Gamma_c$.
An intersecting $r$-uniform straight line system is an intersecting linear system whose lines consist of $r$ points on straight line segment of $\mathbb{R}^2$ and any two lines share a point. Recently, the author [A. V\'azquez-\'Avila, \emph{On intersecting straight line systems}, J. Discret. Math. Sci. Cryptogr. Accepted] proved that any intersecting $r$-uniform straight line system $(P,\mathcal{L})$ has transversal number at most $\nu_2-1$, with $r\geq\nu_2$, where $\nu_2$ is the maximum cardinality of a subset of lines $R\subseteq\mathcal{L}$ such that every triplet of different elements of $R$ does not have a common point.   In this paper, we improve such upper bound if the intersecting $r$-uniform straight line system satisfies $r=\nu_2$. This result has immediate consequences for some questions given by Oliveros et al. [D. Oliveros, C. O'Neill and S. Zerbib, \emph{The geometry and combinatorics of discrete line segment hypergraphs}, Discrete Math. {\bf 343} (2020), no. 6, 111825].
We introduce a theoretical framework which is suitable for the description of all spatial and time-multiplexed periodic single-photon sources realized or proposed thus far. Our model takes into account all possibly relevant loss mechanisms. This statistical analysis of the known schemes shows that multiplexing systems can be optimized in order to produce maximal single-photon probability for various sets of loss parameters by the appropriate choice of the number of multiplexed units of spatial multiplexers or multiplexed time intervals and the input mean photon pair number, and reveals the physical reasons of the existence of the optimum. We propose a novel time-multiplexed scheme to be realized in bulk optics, which, according to the present analysis, would have promising performance when experimentally realized. It could provide a single-photon probability of 85\% with a choice of experimental parameters which are feasible according to the experiments known from the literature.
We explain how to find a rational point on a rational elliptic curve of rank 1 using Heegner points. We give some examples, and list new algorithms that are due to Cremona and Delaunay. These are notes from a short course given at the Institut Henri Poincare in December 2004.
The electric field effect is a useful means of elucidating intrinsic material properties as well as for designing functional devices. The electric-double-layer transistor (EDLT) enables the control of carrier density in a wide range, which is recently proved to be an effective tool for the investigation of thermoelectric properties. Here, we report the gate-tuning of thermoelectric power in a black phosphorus (BP) single crystal flake with the thickness of 40 nm. Using an EDLT configuration, we successfully control the thermoelectric power (S), and find that the S of ion-gated BP reached +510 $\mu$V/K at 210 K in the hole depleted state, which is much higher than the reported bulk single crystal value of +340 $\mu$V/K at 300 K. We compared this experimental data with the first-principles-based calculation and found that this enhancement is qualitatively explained by the effective thinning of the conduction channel of the BP flake and non-uniformity of the channel owing to the gate operation in a depletion mode. Our results provide new opportunities for further engineering BP as a thermoelectric material in nanoscale.
