Combin. 16 (2009) no. 1 | null | null | math.CO | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | We define the alternating sign matrix polytope as the convex hull of nxn
alternating sign matrices and prove its equivalent description in terms of
inequalities. This is analogous to the well known result of Birkhoff and von
Neumann that the convex hull of the permutation matrices equals the set of all
nonnegative doubly stochastic matrices. We count the facets and vertices of the
alternating sign matrix polytope and describe its projection to the
permutohedron as well as give a complete characterization of its face lattice
in terms of modified square ice configurations. Furthermore we prove that the
dimension of any face can be easily determined from this characterization.

(Shitz) | Cellular Systems with Full-Duplex Amplify-and-Forward Relaying and
Cooperative Base-Stations | To appear in the Proc. of the 2007 IEEE International Symposium on
Information Theory | null | 10.1109/ISIT.2007.4557197 | null | cs.IT math.IT | null | In this paper the benefits provided by multi-cell processing of signals
transmitted by mobile terminals which are received via dedicated relay
terminals (RTs) are assessed. Unlike previous works, each RT is assumed here to
be capable of full-duplex operation and receives the transmission of adjacent
relay terminals. Focusing on intra-cell TDMA and non-fading channels, a
simplified uplink cellular model introduced by Wyner is considered. This
framework facilitates analytical derivation of the per-cell sum-rate of
multi-cell and conventional single-cell receivers. In particular, the analysis
is based on the observation that the signal received at the base stations can
be interpreted as the outcome of a two-dimensional linear time invariant
system. Numerical results are provided as well in order to provide further
insight into the performance benefits of multi-cell processing with relaying.

be used to attain accuracies that beat the standard quantum limit. When qubits
are used to construct a quantum probe, it is known that initializing $n$ qubits
in an entangled "cat state," rather than in a separable state, can improve the
measurement uncertainty by a factor of $1/\sqrt{n}$. We investigate how the
measurement uncertainty is affected when the individual qubits in a probe are
subjected to decoherence. In the face of such decoherence, we regard the rate
$R$ at which qubits can be generated and the total duration $\tau$ of a
measurement as fixed resources, and we determine the optimal use of
entanglement among the qubits and the resulting optimal measurement uncertainty
as functions of $R$ and $\tau$.

supergravity which are dual to Wilson loops with 16 supersymmetries in
$\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills. In a first part, we use the methods of a
companion paper to derive the exact general solution of the half-BPS equations
on the space $AdS_2 \times S^2 \times S^4 \times \Sigma$, with isometry group
$SO(2,1)\times SO(3) \times SO(5)$ in terms of two locally harmonic functions
on a Riemann surface $\Sigma$ with boundary. These solutions, generally, have
varying dilaton and axion, and non-vanishing 3-form fluxes. In a second part,
we impose regularity and topology conditions. These non-singular solutions may
be parametrized by a genus $g \geq 0$ hyperelliptic surface $\Sigma$, all of
whose branch points lie on the real line. Each genus $g$ solution has only a
single asymptotic $AdS_5 \times S^5$ region, but exhibits $g$ homology
3-spheres, and an extra $g$ homology 5-spheres, carrying respectively RR 3-form
and RR 5-form charges. For genus 0, we recover $AdS_5 \times S^5$ with 3 free
parameters, while for genus $g \geq 1$, the solution has $2g+5$ free
parameters. The genus 1 case is studied in detail. Numerical analysis is used
to show that the solutions are regular throughout the $g=1$ parameter space.
Collapse of a branch cut on $\Sigma$ subtending either a homology 3-sphere or a
homology 5-sphere is non-singular and yields the genus $g-1$ solution. This
behavior is precisely expected of a proper dual to a Wilson loop in gauge
theory.

bottom and top are calculated using Regge factorization, taking into account
recent experimental determination of the diffractive parton density functions
in Pomeron by the H1 Collaboration at DESY-HERA. In addition, multiple-Pomeron
corrections are considered through the rapidity gap survival probability
factor. We give numerical predictions for single diffractive as well as double
Pomeron exchange (DPE) cross sections, which agree with the available data for
diffractive production of charm and beauty. We make estimates which could be
compared to future measurements at the LHC.

ESSENCE data, the baryon acoustic oscillation measurement from the Sloan
Digital Sky Survey and the shift parameter from the three-year Wilkinson

that these observations suggest a very weak coupling or even a noninteracting
HDE. The phantom crossing behavior in the context of these scenarios is also
briefly discussed.

predictions--further details at
http://www.astro.utoronto.ca/~bundy/millennium/ | null | 10.1086/519526 | null | astro-ph | null | We examine the properties of a morphologically-selected sample of 0.4<z<1.0
spheroidal galaxies in the GOODS fields in order to ascertain whether their
increase in abundance with time arises primarily from mergers. To address this
question we determine scaling relations between the dynamical mass determined
from stellar velocity dispersions, and the stellar mass determined from optical
and infrared photometry. We exploit these relations across the larger sample
for which we have stellar masses in order to construct the first statistically
robust estimate of the evolving dynamical mass function over 0<z<1. The trends
observed match those seen in the stellar mass functions of Bundy et al. 2005
regarding the top-down growth in the abundance of spheroidal galaxies. By
referencing our dynamical masses to the halo virial mass we compare the growth
rate in the abundance of spheroidals to that predicted by the assembly of dark
matter halos. Our comparisons demonstrate that major mergers do not fully
account for the appearance of new spheroidals since z~1 and that additional
mechanisms, such as morphological transformations, are required to drive the
observed evolution.

March 2007 | null | null | null | hep-ph hep-ex | null | In this talk I have raised the question of how the future discovery of
leptonic CP violation can be made robust even at accepting the rather large
current experimental uncertainties in our knowledges of neutrino propagation in
matter. To make progress toward answering the difficult question, I listed ways
to proceed: (1) Obtain tighter constraints on the MSW theory by testing it by
various neutrino experiments. (2) Measure the matter effect in situ, namely
within the experiment for discovering CP violation itself. (3) Uncover leptonic
CP violation in a matter effect free environment. I also reported a step made
toward the above point (2) by taking neutrino factory as a concrete setting; An
accurate in situ measurement of the matter effect looks promising.

All-Sky Survey can be used, together with Johnson BV magnitudes in a (NUV-V)_0
vs. (B-V)_0 plot, to distinguish blue horizontal branch (BHB) from other A
stars of the same B-V color for 12<V<18. In addition, we use SDSS gr magnitudes
in a (NUV - r)_0 vs. (g-r)_0 plot for 14<r<18. The faint limit will be extended
by ~3 magnitudes for the GALEX Medium-Deep Survey. Attempts to use NUV in
conjunction with 2MASS magnitudes and ROTSE m_r magnitudes did not prove
useful. The (NUV - V)_0 vs. (B-V)_0 plot was used to examine BHB star
candidates of varying quality near the South Galactic Pole. We conclude that
the addition of the GALEX NUV significantly adds to the reliabilty with which
these stars can be identified.

us toward a better XRT response matrix which changes our quantitative
conclusions somewhat | null | 10.1086/522667 | null | astro-ph | null | We report discovery of a compact object at high Galactic latitude. The object
was initially identified as a ROSAT All-Sky Survey Bright Source Catalog X-ray
source, 1RXS J141256.0+792204, statistically likely to possess a high X-ray to
optical flux ratio. Further observations using {\em
Swift}, Gemini-North, and the Chandra X-ray Observatory refined the source
position and confirmed the absence of any optical counterpart to an X-ray to
optical flux ratio of F_X/F_V > 8700 (3 sigma). Interpretation of 1RXS
J141256.0+792204 -- which we have dubbed Calvera -- as a typical X-ray-dim
isolated neutron star would place it at z ~ 5.1 kpc above the Galactic disk --
in the Galactic halo -- implying that it either has an extreme space velocity
(v_z >~ 5100 km s-1) or has failed to cool according to theoretical
predictions. Interpretations as a persistent anomalous X-ray pulsar, or a
``compact central object'' present conflicts with these classes' typical
properties. We conclude the properties of Calvera are most consistent with
those of a nearby (80 to 260 pc) radio pulsar, similar to the radio millisecond
pulsars of 47 Tuc, with further observations required to confirm this
classification. If it is a millisecond pulsar, it has an X-ray flux equal to
the X-ray brightest millisecond pulsar (and so is tied for highest flux); is
the closest northern hemisphere millisecond pulsar; and is potentially the
closest known millisecond pulsar in the sky, making it an interesting target
for X-ray-study, a radio pulsar timing array, and LIGO.

Contextualized Attention Metadata: personalized access to digital resources
(http://ariadne.cs.kuleuven.ac.be/mediawiki/index.php/Cama2007) | null | null | null | cs.DL cs.CY | null | Collaborative tagging has recently attracted the attention of both industry
and academia due to the popularity of content-sharing systems such as
CiteULike, del.icio.us, and Flickr. These systems give users the opportunity to
add data items and to attach their own metadata (or tags) to stored data. The
result is an effective content management tool for individual users. Recent
studies, however, suggest that, as tagging communities grow, the added content
and the metadata become harder to manage due to an ease in content diversity.
Thus, mechanisms that cope with increase of diversity are fundamental to
improve the scalability and usability of collaborative tagging systems. This
paper analyzes whether usage patterns can be harnessed to improve navigability
in a growing knowledge space. To this end, it presents a characterization of
two collaborative tagging communities that target scientific literature:
CiteULike and Bibsonomy. We explore three main directions: First, we analyze
the tagging activity distribution across the user population. Second, we define
new metrics for similarity in user interest and use these metrics to uncover
the structure of the tagging communities we study. The structure we uncover
suggests a clear segmentation of interests into a large number of individuals
with unique preferences and a core set of users with interspersed interests.
Finally, we offer preliminary results that demonstrate that the interest-based
structure of the tagging community can be used to facilitate content usage as
communities scale.

t^{-1.5}. For most of these afterglows, the X-ray spectral slope and the decay
indices before and after the break can be accommodated by the standard jet
model although a different origin of the breaks cannot be ruled out. In
addition, there are 27 other afterglows whose X-ray light-curves may also
exhibit a late break to a steep decay, but the evidence is not that compelling.
The X-ray emissions of 38 afterglows decay slower than t^{-1.5} until after 3
day, half of them exhibiting such a slow decay until after 10 day.
Therefore, the fraction of well-monitored Swift afterglows with potential
jet-breaks is around 60 percent, whether we count only the strongest cases for
each type or all of them. This fraction is comparable to the 75 percent of
pre-Swift afterglows whose optical light-curves displayed similar breaks at ~1
day.
The properties of the prompt emission of Swift afterglows with light-curve
breaks show the same correlations (peak energy of GRB spectrum with the burst
isotropic output and with burst collimated output) as previously found for
pre-Swift optical afterglows with light-curve breaks (the Amati and Ghirlanda
relations, respectively). However, we find that Ghirlanda relation is largely a
consequence of Amati's and that the use of the jet-break time leads to a
stronger Ghirlanda correlation only when the few outliers to the Amati relation
are included.

dilution relaxes the limit on cooling imposed by mechanical losses, allowing
the oscillator mode to reach a minimum temperature of 6.9 mK, a factor of
~40000 below the environmental temperature. A further advantage of the optical
spring effect is that it can increase the number of oscillations before
decoherence by several orders of magnitude. In the present experiment we infer
an increase in the dynamical lifetime of the state by a factor of ~200.

di and de designating the ion and electron inertial lengths, respectively, the
separation between the nulls is found to be ~0.7di and an associated
oscillation is identified as a lower hybrid wave with wavelength ~ de. This in

provides an important step toward to establishing an observational framework of

objects were found in the GLIMPSE images. Color indices in these IR bands
suggest the presence of a high-extinction layer of more than a few tenths of a
solar mass in front of the central star. Furthermore, radio observations in the
SiO and H2O maser lines found characteristic maser-line spectra of the embedded
objects, e.g., the SiO J=1-0 line intensity in the v=2 state stronger than that
of the v=1 state, or very widespread H2O maser emission spectra. This indicates
that these objects are actually enshrouded by very thick circumstellar matter,
some of which cannot be ascribed to the AGB wind of the central star.
Individually interesting objects are discussed, including two newly found water
fountains and an SiO source with nebulosity.

Hilbert space, inspired by the work of E. J. Hannan, 1961/1962 for general
canonical correlations of stochastic processes. The spectral theory of
selfadjoint operators is used to investigate the properties of the angles,
e.g., to establish connections between the angles corresponding to orthogonal
complements. The classical gaps and angles of Dixmier and Friedrichs are
characterized in terms of the angles. We introduce principal invariant
subspaces and prove that they are connected by an isometry that appears in the
polar decomposition of the product of corresponding orthogonal projectors.
Point angles are defined by analogy with the point operator spectrum. We bound
the Hausdorff distance between the sets of the squared cosines of the angles
corresponding to the original subspaces and their perturbations. We show that
the squared cosines of the angles from one subspace to another can be
interpreted as Ritz values in the Rayleigh-Ritz method, where the former
subspace serves as a trial subspace and the orthogonal projector of the latter
subspace serves as an operator in the Rayleigh-Ritz method. The Hausdorff
distance between the Ritz values, corresponding to different trial subspaces,
is shown to be bounded by a constant times the gap between the trial subspaces.
We prove a similar eigenvalue perturbation bound that involves the gap squared.
Finally, we consider the classical alternating projectors method and propose
its ultimate acceleration, using the conjugate gradient approach. The
corresponding convergence rate estimate is obtained in terms of the angles. We
illustrate a possible acceleration for the domain decomposition method with a
small overlap for the 1D diffusion equation.

(SCR) of A. We characterize matrices for which SCR is zero via the notion of
supernormality which generalizes unimodularity. SCR is studied in the context
of the stable set problem in a graph, and we show that many of the well-known
facet normals of the stable set polytope appear in at most two rounds of our
procedure. Our results reveal a uniform hypercyclic structure behind the
normals of many complicated facet inequalities in the literature for the stable
set polytope. Lower bounds for SCR are derived both in general and for
polytopes in the unit cube.

radiation field. As a simplified model of the atom-electromagnetic field system
we use a system composed by a harmonic oscillator linearly coupled to a scalar
field in the framework of the recently introduced dressed coordinates and
dressed states. We show that the time evolution of the thermal expectation
values for the occupation number operators depend exclusively on the
probabilities associated with the emission and absorption of field quanta. In
particular, the time evolution of the number operator associated with the atom
is given in terms of the probability of remaining in the first excited state
and the decay probabilities from this state by emission of field quanta of
frequencies $\omega_k$. Also, it is showed that independent of the initial
state of the atom, it thermalizes with the thermal radiation field in a time
scale of the order of the inverse coupling constant.

your destiny lies at the central singularity, irrespective of what you do.
Furthermore, your demise will occur in a finite amount of proper time. In this
paper, the use of rockets in extending the amount of time before the collision
with the central singularity is examined. In general, the use of such rockets
can increase your remaining time, but only up to a maximum value; this is at
odds with the ``more you struggle, the less time you have'' statement that is
sometimes discussed in relation to black holes. The derived equations are
simple to solve numerically and the framework can be employed as a teaching
tool for general relativity.

with Missing Values | 7 pages | null | null | null | cs.AI | null | An ensemble based approach for dealing with missing data, without predicting
or imputing the missing values is proposed. This technique is suitable for
online operations of neural networks and as a result, is used for online
condition monitoring. The proposed technique is tested in both classification
and regression problems. An ensemble of Fuzzy-ARTMAPs is used for
classification whereas an ensemble of multi-layer perceptrons is used for the
regression problem. Results obtained using this ensemble-based technique are
compared to those obtained using a combination of auto-associative neural
networks and genetic algorithms and findings show that this method can perform
up to 9% better in regression problems. Another advantage of the proposed
technique is that it eliminates the need for finding the best estimate of the
data, and hence, saves time.

Physical Review D | Phys.Rev.D76:023514,2007 | 10.1103/PhysRevD.76.023514 | null | astro-ph gr-qc hep-ph hep-th | null | We derive the equation of matter density perturbations on sub-horizon scales
for a general Lagrangian density f(R, phi, X) that is a function of a Ricci
scalar R, a scalar field phi and a kinetic term X=-(nabla phi)^2/2. This is
useful to constrain modified gravity dark energy models from observations of
large-scale structure and weak lensing. We obtain the solutions for the matter
perturbation delta_m as well as the gravitational potential Phi for some
analytically solvable models. In a f(R) dark energy model with the Lagrangian
density f(R)=alpha R^{1+m}-Lambda, the growth rates of perturbations exhibit
notable differences from those in the standard Einstein gravity unless m is
very close to 0. In scalar-tensor models with the Lagrangian density
f=F(phi)R+2p(phi,X) we relate the models with coupled dark energy scenarios in
the Einstein frame and reproduce the equations of perturbations known in the
current literature by making a conformal transformation. We also estimate the
evolution of perturbations in both Jordan and Einstein frames when the energy
fraction of dark energy is constant during the matter-dominated epoch.

Kuszmaul, Shang-Hua Teng, Kebin Wang | Optimal Cache-Oblivious Mesh Layouts | null | null | null | null | cs.DS cs.CE cs.MS cs.NA | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | A mesh is a graph that divides physical space into regularly-shaped regions.
Meshes computations form the basis of many applications, e.g. finite-element
methods, image rendering, and collision detection. In one important mesh
primitive, called a mesh update, each mesh vertex stores a value and repeatedly
updates this value based on the values stored in all neighboring vertices. The
performance of a mesh update depends on the layout of the mesh in memory.
This paper shows how to find a memory layout that guarantees that the mesh
update has asymptotically optimal memory performance for any set of memory
parameters. Such a memory layout is called cache-oblivious. Formally, for a
$d$-dimensional mesh $G$, block size $B$, and cache size $M$ (where
$M=\Omega(B^d)$), the mesh update of $G$ uses $O(1+|G|/B)$ memory transfers.
The paper also shows how the mesh-update performance degrades for smaller
caches, where $M=o(B^d)$.
The paper then gives two algorithms for finding cache-oblivious mesh layouts.
The first layout algorithm runs in time $O(|G|\log^2|G|)$ both in expectation
and with high probability on a RAM. It uses $O(1+|G|\log^2(|G|/M)/B)$ memory
transfers in expectation and $O(1+(|G|/B)(\log^2(|G|/M) + \log|G|))$ memory
transfers with high probability in the cache-oblivious and disk-access machine
(DAM) models. The layout is obtained by finding a fully balanced decomposition
tree of $G$ and then performing an in-order traversal of the leaves of the
tree. The second algorithm runs faster by almost a $\log|G|/\log\log|G|$ factor
in all three memory models, both in expectation and with high probability. The
layout obtained by finding a relax-balanced decomposition tree of $G$ and then
performing an in-order traversal of the leaves of the tree.

a detailed spectral analysis and a supporting timing analysis of all of these

three principal X-ray states defined by Remillard and McClintock. These X-ray
results are complemented by Very Large Array (VLA) data obtained at six
frequencies that provide quite complete coverage of the entire outburst cycle
at 4.860 GHz and 8.460 GHz. We also present photometric data and finding charts
for the optical counterpart in both outburst and quiescence. We closely compare
H 1743-322 to the well-studied black-hole X-ray transient XTE J1550-564 and
find the behaviors of these systems to be very similar. As reported elsewhere,
both H 1743-322 and XTE J1550-564 are relativistic jet sources and both exhibit
a pair of high-frequency QPO oscillations with a 3:2 frequency ratio. The many
striking similarities between these two sources argue strongly that H 1743-322
is a black hole binary, although presently no dynamical data exist to support
this conclusion.

Kinematics (10/05/2005) 1-10 | null | null | cs.RO | null | The optimization of the pressure angle in a cam-follower transmission is
reported in this paper. This transmission is based on Slide-o-Cam, a cam
mechanism with multiple rollers mounted on a common translating follower. The
design of Slide-o-Cam, a transmission intended to produce a sliding motion from
a turning drive, or vice versa, was reported elsewhere. This transmission
provides pure-rolling motion, thereby reducing the friction of rack-and-pinions
and linear drives. The pressure angle is a suitable performance index for this
transmission because it determines the amount of force transmitted to the load
vs. that transmitted to the machine frame. Two alternative design strategies
are studied, namely, (i) increase the number of lobes on each cam or (ii)
increase the number of cams. This device is intended to replace the current
ball-screws in Orthoglide, a three-DOF parallel robot for the production of
translational motions, currently under development at Ecole Centrale de Nantes
for machining applications.

(IRCCyN) | The Design of Parallel Kinematic Machine Tools Using Kinetostatic
Performance Criteria | null | 3d Int. Conference on Metal Cutting (2001) 1-10 | null | null | cs.RO | null | Most industrial machine tools have a serial kinematic architecture, which
means that each axis has to carry the following one, including its actuators
and joints. High Speed Machining highlights some drawbacks of such
architectures: heavy moving parts require from the machine structure high
stiffness to limit bending problems that lower the machine accuracy, and limit
the dynamic performances of the feed axes. That is why PKMs attract more and
more researchers and companies, because they are claimed to offer several
advantages over their serial counterparts, like high structural rigidity and
high dynamic capacities. Indeed, the parallel kinematic arrangement of the
links provides higher stiffness and lower moving masses that reduce inertia
effects. Thus, PKMs have better dynamic performances. However, the design of a
parallel kinematic machine tool (PKMT) is a hard task that requires further
research studies before wide industrial use can be expected. Many criteria need
to be taken into account in the design of a PKMT. We pay special attention to
the description of kinetostatic criteria that rely on the conditioning of the
Jacobian matrix of the mechanism. The organisation of this paper is as follows:
next section introduces general remarks about PKMs, then is explained why PKMs
can be interesting alternative machine tool designs. Then are presented
existing PKMTs. An application to the design of a small-scale machine tool
prototype developed at IRCCyN is presented at the end of this paper.

positively charged kaon and one negatively charged pion have been identified
with the ANKE spectrometer. Such configurations are sensitive to the production
of the ground state Lambda and Sigma0 hyperons as well as the Sigma0(1385) and
Lambda(1405) resonances. Applying invariant- and missing-mass techniques, the
two overlapping excited states could be well separated, though with limited
statistics. The shape and position of the Lambda(1405) distribution,
reconstructed cleanly in the Sigma0 pion0 channel, are similar to those found
from other decay modes and there is no obvious mass shift. This finding
constitutes a challenging test for models that predict Lambda(1405) to be a
two-state resonance.

within the framework of static and time dependent mean field theory is extended
to include Particle-Vibration Coupling (PVC) in a consistent way. Starting from
a conventional energy functional we calculate the low-lying collective
vibrations in Relativistic Random Phase Approximation (RRPA) and construct an
energy dependent self-energy for the Dyson equation. The resulting
Bethe-Salpeter equation in the particle-hole ($ph$) channel is solved in the
Time Blocking Approximation (TBA). No additional parameters are used and double
counting is avoided by a proper subtraction method. The same energy functional,
i.e. the same set of coupling constants, generates the Dirac-Hartree
single-particle spectrum, the static part of the residual $ph$-interaction and
the particle-phonon coupling vertices. Therefore a fully consistent description
of nuclear excited states is developed. This method is applied for an
investigation of damping phenomena in the spherical nuclei with closed shells
$^{208}$Pb and $^{132}$Sn. Since the phonon coupling terms enrich the RRPA
spectrum with a multitude of $ph\otimes$phonon components a noticeable
fragmentation of the giant resonances is found, which is in full agreement with
experimental data and with results of the semi-phenomenological
non-relativistic approach.

orthorhombic lattices, together with the details of calculations for a putative
exact solution. Two conjectures, an additional rotation in the fourth curled-up
dimension and the weight factors on the eigenvectors, are proposed to serve as
a boundary condition to deal with the topologic problem of the 3D Ising model.
The partition function of the 3D simple orthorhombic Ising model is evaluated
by spinor analysis, by employing these conjectures. Based on the validity of
the conjectures, the critical temperature of the simple orthorhombic Ising
lattices could be determined by the relation of KK* = KK' + KK'' + K'K'' or
sinh 2K sinh 2(K' + K'' + K'K''/K) = 1. For a simple cubic Ising lattice, the
critical point is putatively determined to locate exactly at the golden ratio
xc = exp(-2Kc) = (sq(5) - 1)/2, as derived from K* = 3K or sinh 2K sinh 6K = 1.
If the conjectures would be true, the specific heat of the simple orthorhombic
Ising system would show a logarithmic singularity at the critical point of the
phase transition. The spontaneous magnetization and the spin correlation
functions of the simple orthorhombic Ising ferromagnet are derived explicitly.
The putative critical exponents derived explicitly for the simple orthorhombic
Ising lattices are alpha = 0, beta = 3/8, gamma = 5/4, delta = 13/3, eta = 1/8
and nu = 2/3, showing the universality behavior and satisfying the scaling
laws. The cooperative phenomena near the critical point are studied and the
results obtained based on the conjectures are compared with those of the
approximation methods and the experimental findings. The 3D to 2D crossover
phenomenon differs with the 2D to 1D crossover phenomenon and there is a
gradual crossover of the exponents from the 3D values to the 2D ones.

photometric transit timing variations | 6 pages, 5 figures, to appear in Astronomy and Astrophysics | null | 10.1051/0004-6361:20066560 | null | astro-ph | null | Precise photometric measurements of the upcoming space missions allow the
size, mass, and density of satellites of exoplanets to be determined. Here we
present such an analysis using the photometric transit timing variation
($TTV_p$). We examined the light curve effects of both the transiting planet
and its satellite. We define the photometric central time of the transit that
is equivalent to the transit of a fixed photocenter. This point orbits the
barycenter, and leads to the photometric transit timing variations. The exact
value of $TTV_p$ depends on the ratio of the density, the mass, and the size of
the satellite and the planet. Since two of those parameters are independent, a
reliable estimation of the density ratio leads to an estimation of the size and
the mass of the exomoon. Upper estimations of the parameters are possible in
the case when an upper limit of $TTV_p$ is known. In case the density ratio
cannot be estimated reliably, we propose an approximation with assuming equal
densities. The presented photocenter $TTV_p$ analysis predicts the size of the
satellite better than the mass. We simulated transits of the Earth-Moon system
in front of the Sun. The estimated size and mass of the Moon are 0.020
Earth-mass and 0.274 Earth-size if equal densities are assumed. This result is
comparable to the real values within a factor of 2. If we include the real
density ratio (about 0.6), the results are 0.010 Earth-Mass and 0.253
Earth-size, which agree with the real values within 20%.

a relativistic jet that crosses the quark-gluon plasma. Assuming that the jet
of particles and the plasma can be described using a hydrodynamical approach,
we derive and discuss the dispersion laws for the unstable collective modes. In
our analysis the chromohydrodynamical equations for the collective modes are
tackled in the linear response approximation. Such an approximation, valid for
short time scales, allows to study in a straightforward way the dependence of
the dispersion laws of the collective modes on the velocity of the jet, on the
magnitude of the momentum of the collective mode and on the angle between these
two quantities. We find that unstable modes arise for velocity of the jet
larger than the speed of the sound of the plasma and only modes with momenta
smaller than a certain values are unstable. Moreover, for ultrarelativistic
velocities of the jet the longitudinal mode becomes stable and the most
unstable modes correspond to relative angles between the velocity of the jet
and momentum of the collective mode larger than $\sim \pi/8$. Our results
suggest an alternative mechanism for the description of the jet quenching
phenomenon, where the jet crossing the plasma loses energy exciting colored
unstable modes.

is globally $C^{2}$ and locally $C^{3}$ function (see Theorem \ref{t:U.t1}).
The proof as our previous proof in \cite{Pa-Sh:97} is based on the orthogonal
polynomial techniques but does not use asymptotics of orthogonal polynomials.
Rather, we obtain the $sin$-kernel as a unique solution of a certain non-linear
integro-differential equation that follows from the determinant formulas for
the correlation functions of the model. We also give a simplified and
strengthened version of paper \cite{BPS:95} on the existence and properties of
the limiting Normalized Counting Measure of eigenvalues. We use these results
in the proof of universality and we believe that they are of independent

comparison with the relativistic Fermi gas model (RFGM), which is widely used

when applied to exclusive cross section data and leads to overestimated values
of inclusive and total cross sections. We also found significant nuclear-model

exhibit the static log-normal distribution in the middle scale region. In the
derivation, a Non-Gibrat's law under the detailed balance is adopted together
with following two approximations. Firstly, the probability density function of
profits growth rate is described as a tent-shaped exponential function.
Secondly, the value of the origin of the growth rate distribution divided into
bins is constant. The derivation is confirmed in the database consistently.
This static procedure is applied to a quasi-static system. We dynamically
describe a quasi-static log-normal distribution in the middle scale region. In
the derivation, a Non-Gibrat's law under the detailed quasi-balance is adopted
together with two approximations confirmed in the static system. The resultant
distribution is power-law with varying Pareto index in the large scale region
and the quasi-static log-normal distribution in the middle scale region. In the
distribution, not only the change of Pareto index but also the change of the
variance of the log-normal distribution depends on the parameter of the
detailed quasi-balance. As a result, Pareto index and the variance of the
log-normal distribution are related to each other.

cone cells in the Drosophila retina resembles soap bubble packing, and that
changing E- and N-cadherin expression can change this packing, as well as cell
shape.
The analogy with bubbles suggests that cell packing is driven by surface
minimization. We find that this assumption is insufficient to model the
experimentally observed shapes and packing of the cells based on their cadherin
expression. We then consider a model in which adhesion leads to a surface
increase, balanced by cell cortex contraction. Using the experimentally
observed distributions of E- and N-cadherin, we simulate the packing and cell
shapes in the wildtype eye. Furthermore, by changing only the corresponding
parameters, this model can describe the mutants with different numbers of
cells, or changes in cadherin expression.

hadrons, deposits a fraction of its energy in the medium, leading to suppressed
production of high-$p_T$ hadrons. Assuming that the deposited energy quickly
thermalizes, we simulate the subsequent hydrodynamic evolution of the QGP
fluid. Explicit simulation of Au+Au collision with and without a quenching jet
indicate that elliptic flow is greatly reduced in a jet event. The result can
be used to identify the jet events in heavy ion collisions.

cosmological data out to redshift 0.3, and future surveys are expected to
achieve a high degree of completeness out to a redshift exceeding 1.
Consequently, a numerical programme for determining the metric of the universe
from observational data will soon become practical; and thereby realise the
ultimate application of Einstein's equations. Apart from detailing the cosmic
geometry, this would allow us to verify and quantify homogeneity, rather than
assuming it, as has been necessary up to now, and to do that on a metric level,
and not merely at the mass distribution level. This paper is the beginning of a
project aimed at such a numerical implementation. The primary observational
data from our past light cone consists of galaxy redshifts, apparent
luminosities, angular diameters and number densities, together with source
evolution functions, absolute luminosities, true diameters and masses of
sources. Here we start with the simplest case, that of spherical symmetry and a
dust equation of state, and execute an algorithm that determines the unknown
metric functions from this data. We discuss the challenges of turning the
theoretical algorithm into a workable numerical procedure, particularly
addressing the origin and the maximum in the area distance. Our numerical
method is tested with several artificial data sets for homogeneous and
inhomogeneous models, successfully reproducing the original models. This
demonstrates the basic viability of such a scheme. Although current surveys
don't have sufficient completeness or accuracy, we expect this situation to
change in the near future, and in the meantime there are many refinements and
generalisations to be added.

range, show that a hybrid model consisting of two components, a photospheric
and a non-thermal component, in many cases fits bright, single-pulsed bursts as
well as, and in some instances even better than, the Band function. With an
energy coverage from 8 keV up to 300 GeV, GLAST will give us an unprecedented
opportunity to further investigate the nature of the prompt emission. In
particular, it will give us the possibility to determine whether a photospheric
component is the determining feature of the spectrum or not. Here we present a
short study of the ability of GLAST to detect such a photospheric component in
the sub-MeV range for typical bursts, using simulation tools developed within
the GLAST science collaboration.

solution of the classical linear incoherent trapping problem is presented for a
broad audience. A clear connection with the alternative Holstein's solution
ansatz is emphasized by the (re)interpretation of the fundamental mode as the
one associated with a relaxed nonchanging spatial distribution of excitation.
Expressions for overall relaxation parameters (ensemble emission yield and
lifetime) as well as time-resolved (decay and spatial distribution) and
steady-state quantities (spectra and spatial distribution) are given with the
fundamental mode contribution singled out. The multiple scattering
representation is advocated for final undergraduate and beginning graduate
physics instruction based on physical insight and computation feasibility. This
will be illustrated in the following instalment of this contribution.

attributed to critical Casimir forces f_C. We calculate the scaling functions
vartheta of f_C within models representing the corresponding universality
classes. For the mixtures our analysis provides an understanding of the rich
behavior of vartheta deduced from the experimental data and predicts the
crossover behavior between the tricritical point and the lambda-transition of
pure 4He which are connected by a line of critical points. The formation of a
'soft-mode' phase within the wetting films gives rise to a pronounced maximum
of f_C below the tricritical point as observed experimentally. Near the
tricritical point we find logarithmic corrections ~L^(-3)(ln L)^(1/2) for the
leading behavior of vartheta dominating the contributions from the background

considered and the model based on a_2 is analysed in detail. After providing a
complete characterization of the problem in a classical framework, a suitable
quantum transmission matrix, able to describe the interaction between an
integrable defect and solitons, is found. Two independent paths are taken to
reach the result. One is an investigation of the triangle equations using the
S-matrix for the imaginary coupling bulk affine Toda field theories proposed by
Hollowood, and the other uses a functional integral approach together with a
bootstrap procedure. Evidence to support the results is collected in various
ways: for instance, through the calculation of the transmission factors for the
lightest breathers. While previous discoveries within the sine-Gordon model
motivated this study, there are several new phenomena displayed in the a_2
model including intriguing disparities between the classical and the quantum
pictures. For example, in the quantum framework, for a specific range of the
coupling constant that excludes a neighbourhood of the classical limit, there
is an unstable bound state.

is a square. In that case, special members of the families can be viewed as
superpositions of rotated Cardy branes. Using embeddings of SU(2) into higher
groups, the new boundary states can be lifted to symmetry-breaking branes for
other WZW models.

solvents can be modeled by means of effective bounded potentials, the simplest
of which being that of penetrable spheres (PSs). In this paper we construct two
simple analytical theories for the structural properties of PS fluids: a
low-temperature (LT) approximation, that can be seen as an extension to PSs of
the well-known solution of the Percus-Yevick (PY) equation for hard spheres,
and a high-temperature (HT) approximation based on the exact asymptotic
behavior in the limit of infinite temperature. Monte Carlo simulations for a
wide range of temperatures and densities are performed to assess the validity
of both theories. It is found that, despite their simplicity, the HT and LT
approximations exhibit a fair agreement with the simulation data within their
respective domains of applicability, so that they complement each other. A
comparison with numerical solutions of the PY and the hypernetted-chain
approximations is also carried out, the latter showing a very good performance,
except inside the core at low temperatures.

materials exhibiting ferromagnetic, antiferromagnetic and metamagnetic
transitions. Precise measurements by using a 14 MHz tunnel diode oscillator
(TDO) allow detailed insight into the field and temperature dependence of
$\chi$. In particular, local moment ferromagnets show a sharp peak in $\chi(T)$
near the Curie temperature, $T_c$. The peak amplitude decreases and shifts to
higher temperatures with very small applied dc fields. Anisotropic measurements
of CeVSb$_3$ show that this peak is present provided the magnetic easy axis is
aligned with the excitation field. In a striking contrast, small moment,
itinerant ferromagnets (i.e., ZrZn$_2$) show a broad maximum in $\chi(T)$ that
responds differently to applied field. We believe that TDO measurements provide
a very sensitive way to distinguish between local and itinerant moment magnetic
orders. Local moment antiferromagnets do not show a peak at the N\'eel
temperature, $T_N$, but only a sharp decrease of $\chi$ below $T_N$ due to the
loss of spin-disorder scattering changing the penetration depth of the ac
excitation field. Furthermore, we show that the TDO is capable of detecting
changes in spin order as well as metamagnetic transitions. Finally, critical
scaling of $\chi(T,H)$ in the vicinity of $T_C$ is discussed in CeVSb$_3$ and
CeAgSb$_2$.

studying a deformation of the theory which involves additional gauge singlets.
In this case, the conjectured minimum is destabilized. We comment on the

we study this phenomenon using a mathematical model of a system that evolves

collapse of its structure. We find that the typical lifetime of the system
increases sharply with the diversity of its components or species. We also find
that the prime reason for crashes is a naturally occurring internal fragility
of the system. This fragility is captured in the network organizational
character and is related to a reduced multiplicity of pathways between its
components. This work suggests new parameters for understanding the robustness
of evolving molecular networks, ecosystems, societies, and markets.

and Schwarz and study the induced map between the corresponding K-theories. In
addition, there is a forgetful functor to the category of noncommutative
elliptic curves of Soibelman and Vologodsky, as well as a forgetful functor to
the category of vector bundles on $\mathbb{C}^*$ with regular singular
connections.
The category that we consider has the nice property of being a Tannakian
category, hence it is equivalent to the category of representations of an
affine group scheme. Via an equivariant version of the Riemann-Hilbert
correspondence we determine this group scheme to be (the algebraic hull of)
$\mathbb{Z}^2$. We also obtain a full subcategory of the category of
holomorphic bundles of the noncommutative torus, which is equivalent to the
category of representations of $\mathbb{Z}$. This group is the proposed
topological fundamental group of the noncommutative torus (understood as a
degenerate elliptic curve) and we study Nori's notion of \'etale fundamental
group in this context.

Precession in Galactic Nuclei | 29 pages, no figure, Accepted for publication in ApJ | null | 10.1086/522910 | null | astro-ph | null | Supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) is expected with the hierarchical
galaxy formation model. Currently, physics processes dominating the evolution
of a SMBHB are unclear. An interesting question is whether we could
observationally determine the evolution of SMBHB and give constraints on the
physical processes. Jet precession have been observed in many AGNs and
generally attributed to disk precession. In this paper we calculate the time
variation of jet precession and conclude that jet precession is accelerated in
SMBHB systems but decelerated in others. The acceleration of jet precession
$dP_{\rm pr} / dt$ is related to jet precession timescale $P_{\rm pr}$ and
SMBHB evolution timescale $\tau_{\rm a}$, ${dP_{\rm pr} \over dt} \simeq -
\Lambda {P_{\rm pr} \over \tau_{\rm a}}$. Our calculations based on the models
for jet precession and SMBHB evolution show that $dP_{\rm pr} / dt$ can be as
high as about $- 1.0$ with a typical value -0.2 and can be easily detected. We
discussed the differential jet precession for NGC1275 observed in the
literature. If the observed rapid acceleration of jet precession is true, the
jet precession is due to the orbital motion of an unbound SMBHB with mass ratio
$q\approx 0.76$. When jets precessed from the ancient bubbles to the currently
active jets, the separation of SMBHB decrease from about $1.46 {\rm Kpc}$ to
$0.80 {\rm Kpc}$ with an averaged decreasing velocity $da/dt \simeq - 1.54
\times 10^6 {\rm cm/s}$ and evolution timescale $\tau_{\rm a} \approx 7.5\times
10^7 {\rm yr}$. However, if we assume a steady jet precession for many cycles,
the observations implies a hard SMBHB with mass ratio $q\approx 0.21$ and
separation $a\approx 0.29 {\rm pc}$.

growth conditions, exhibit complex branched growth patterns. In order to
investigate this phenomenon we present a simple hybrid cellular automaton model
of cell colony growth. In the model the growth of the colony is limited by a
nutrient that is consumed by the cells and which inhibits cell division if it
falls below a certain threshold. Using this model we have investigated how the
nutrient consumption rate of the cells affects the growth dynamics of the
colony. We found that for low consumption rates the colony takes on a Eden-like
morphology, while for higher consumption rates the morphology of the colony is
branched with a fractal geometry. These findings are in agreement with previous
results, but the simplicity of the model presented here allows for a linear
stability analysis of the system. By observing that the local growth of the
colony is proportional to the flux of the nutrient we derive an approximate
dispersion relation for the growth of the colony interface. This dispersion
relation shows that the stability of the growth depends on how far the nutrient
penetrates into the colony. For low nutrient consumption rates the penetration
distance is large, which stabilises the growth, while for high consumption
rates the penetration distance is small, which leads to unstable branched
growth. When the penetration distance vanishes the dispersion relation is
reduced to the one describing Laplacian growth without ultra-violet
regularisation. The dispersion relation was verified by measuring how the
average branch width depends on the consumption rate of the cells and shows
good agreement between theory and simulations.

function of the Ehrhart polynomial. Let P be a lattice polytope with
h^*-polynomial of degree d and with linear coefficient h^*_1. We show that P
has to be a lattice pyramid over a lower-dimensional lattice polytope, if the
dimension of P is greater or equal to h^*_1 (2d+1) + 4d-1. This result has a
purely combinatorial proof and generalizes a recent theorem of Batyrev.

demonstrate here, with the aid of a model taken from the theory of graphs, that
it is possible to provide the conditions for an effective knowledge management.
A right way could be to involve the actors with the highest betweeness

the full three-body dynamics onto adiabatic Born--Oppenheimer approximation.
Coupling of electron and nuclear quantum dynamics is clearly seen. Nuclear
pair correlation function is found to broaden by 0.040 a_0 and average bond
length is larger by 0.056 a_0. Also, non-adiabatic correction to the binding
energy is found. Electronic distribution is affected less, and therefore, we
could say that the adiabatic approximation is better for the electron than for
the nuclei.

the center of $^3$He drops, whereas Ca, Sr, and Ba reside in a deep dimple at
the surface of $^4$He drops, and Mg is at their center. For Ca and Sr, the
structure of the dimples is shown to be very sensitive to the He-alkaline earth
pair potentials used in the calculations. The $5s5p\leftarrow5s^2$ transition
of strontium atoms attached to helium nanodroplets of either isotope has been
probed in absorption experiments. The spectra show that strontium is solvated
inside $^3$He nanodroplets, supporting the calculations. In the light of our
findings, we emphasize the relevance of the heavier alkaline earth atoms for
analyzing mixed $^3$He-$^4$He nanodroplets, and in particular, we suggest their
use to experimentally probe the $^3$He-$^4$He interface.

Miguel | Information feedback and mass media effects in cultural dynamics | 20n pages, 10 figures | Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation 10 (3), 9
(2007) | null | null | physics.soc-ph | null | We study the effects of different forms of information feedback associated
with mass media on an agent-agent based model of the dynamics of cultural
dissemination. In addition to some processes previously considered, we also
examine a model of local mass media influence in cultural dynamics. Two
mechanisms of information feedback are investigated: (i) direct mass media
influence, where local or global mass media act as an additional element in the
network of interactions of each agent, and (ii) indirect mass media influence,
where global media acts as a filter of the influence of the existing network of
interactions of each agent. Our results generalize previous findings showing
that cultural diversity builds-up by increasing the strength of the mass media
influence. We find that this occurs independently of the mechanisms of action
(direct or indirect) of the mass media message. However, through an analysis of
the full range of parameters measuring cultural diversity, we establish that
the enhancement of cultural diversity produced by interaction with mass media
only occurs for strong enough mass media messages. In comparison with previous
studies a main different result is that weak mass media messages, in
combination with agent-agent interaction, are efficient in producing cultural
homogeneity. Moreover, the homogenizing effect of weak mass media messages are
more efficient for direct local mass media messages than for global mass media
messages or indirect global mass media influences.

$L^{2,\infty}$ we use is critical with respect to the expected vortex profiles

formation of single and binary stars using a recently developed method for
incorporating Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) into the Smoothed Particle
Hydrodynamics (SPH) method. An overview of the method is presented before
discussing the effect of magnetic fields on the formation of circumstellar
discs around young stars. We find that the presence of magnetic fields during
the disc formation process can lead to significantly smaller and less massive
discs which are much less prone to gravitational instability. Similarly in the
case of binary star formation we find that magnetic fields, overall, suppress
fragmentation. However these effects are found to be largely driven by magnetic
pressure. The relative importance of magnetic tension is dependent on the
orientation of the field with respect to the rotation axis, but can, with the
right orientation, lead to a dilution of the magnetic pressure-driven
suppression of fragmentation.

important process for the dynamical evolution of the coronal magnetic field. In
this paper we extend our previous numerical investigations, by looking at the
process of flux interaction as an initially twisted flux tube emerges into a
plane parallel, coronal magnetic field. Significant differences are found in
the dynamical appearance and evolution of the emergence process depending on
the relative orientation between the rising flux system and any preexisting
coronal field. When the flux systems are nearly anti-parallel, the experiments
show substantial reconnection and demonstrate clear signatures of a high
temperature plasma located in the high velocity outflow regions extending from
the reconnection region. However, the cases that have a more parallel
orientation of the flux systems show very limited reconnection and none of the
associated features. Despite the very different amount of reconnection between
the two flux systems, it is found that the emerging flux that is still
connected to the original tube, reaches the same height as a function of time.
As a compensation for the loss of tube flux, a clear difference is found in the
extent of the emerging loop in the direction perpendicular to the main axis of
the initial flux tube. Increasing amounts of magnetic reconnection decrease the
volume, which confines the remaining tube flux.
