A remark on a priori estimate for the Navier-Stokes equations with the Coriolis force

The Cauchy problem for the Navier-Stokes equations with the Coriolis force is considered. It is proved that a similar a priori estimate, which is derived for the Navier-Stokes equations by Lei and Lin [11], holds under the effect of the Coriolis force. As an application existence of a unique global solution for arbitrary speed of rotation is proved, as well as its asymptotic behavior.Comment: 13 page

A new proof of long range scattering for critical nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations

We present a new proof of global existence and long range scattering, from small initial data, for the one-dimensional cubic gauge invariant nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation, and for Hartree equations in dimension $n \geq 2$. The proof relies on an analysis in Fourier space, related to the recent works of Germain, Masmoudi and Shatah on space-time resonances. An interesting feature of our approach is that we are able to identify the long range phase correction term through a very natural stationary phase argument.Comment: Improved introduction.

A One-Factor Conditionally Linear Commodity Pricing Model under Partial Information

A one-factor asset pricing model with an Ornstein--Uhlenbeck process as its state variable is studied under partial information: the mean-reverting level and the mean-reverting speed parameters are modeled as hidden/unobservable stochastic variables. No-arbitrage pricing formulas for derivative securities written on a liquid asset and exponential utility indifference pricing formulas for derivative securities written on an illiquid asset are presented. Moreover, a conditionally linear filtering result is introduced to compute the pricing/hedging formulas and the Bayesian estimators of the hidden variables.Comment: 21 page

Order Estimates for the Exact Lugannani-Rice Expansion

The Lugannani-Rice formula is a saddlepoint approximation method for estimating the tail probability distribution function, which was originally studied for the sum of independent identically distributed random variables. Because of its tractability, the formula is now widely used in practical financial engineering as an approximation formula for the distribution of a (single) random variable. In this paper, the Lugannani-Rice approximation formula is derived for a general, parametrized sequence of random variables and the order estimates of the approximation are given.Comment: 32 pages, 9 figure

Derived categories of NN-complexes

We study the homotopy category $\mathsf{K}_{N}(\mathcal{B})$ of $N$-complexes of an additive category $\mathcal{B}$ and the derived category $\mathsf{D}_{N}(\mathcal{A})$ of an abelian category $\mathcal{A}$. First we show that both $\mathsf{K}_N(\mathcal{B})$ and $\mathsf{D}_N(\mathcal{A})$ have natural structures of triangulated categories. Then we establish a theory of projective (resp., injective) resolutions and derived functors. Finally, under some conditions of an abelian category $\mathcal{A}$, we show that $\mathsf{D}_{N}(\mathcal{A})$ is triangle equivalent to the ordinary derived category $\mathsf{D}(\mathsf{Morph}_{N-2}(\mathcal{A}))$ where $\mathsf{Morph}_{N-2}(\mathcal{A})$ is the category of sequential $N-2$ morphisms of $\mathcal{A}$.Comment: 31 page

Polygon of recollements and NN-complexes

We study a structure of subcategories which are called a polygon of recollements in a triangulated category. First, we study a $2n$-gon of recollements in an $(m/n)$-Calabi-Yau triangulated category. Second, we show the homotopy category $\mathsf{K}(\mathsf{Mor}_{N-1}(\mathcal{B}))$ of complexes of an additive category $\mathsf{Mor}_{N-1}(\mathcal{B})$ of $N-1$ sequences of split monomorphisms of an additive category $\mathcal{B}$ has a $2N$-gon of recollments. Third, we show the homotopy category $\mathsf{K}_{N}(\mathcal{B})$ of $N$-complexes of $\mathcal{B}$ has also a $2N$-gon of recollments. Finally, we show there is a triangle equivalence between $\mathsf{K}(\mathsf{Mor}_{N-1}(\mathcal{B}))$ and $\mathsf{K}_{N}(\mathcal{B})$.Comment: 32 page

On t-structures and Torsion Theories Induced by Compact Objects

First, we show that a compact object $C$ in a triangulated category, which satisfies suitable conditions, induces a $t$-structure. Second, in an abelian category we show that a complex $P^{\centerdot}$ of small projective objects of term length two, which satisfies suitable conditions, induces a torsion theory. In the case of module categories, using a torsion theory, we give equivalent conditions for $P^{\centerdot}$ to be a tilting complex. Finally, in the case of artin algebras, we give one to one correspondence between tilting complexes of term length two and torsion theories with certain conditions.Comment: 17 pages, AMSLaTe

Recollement of homotopy categories and Cohen-Macaulay modules

We study the homotopy category of unbounded complexes with bounded homologies and its quotient category by the homotopy category of bounded complexes. We show the existence of a recollement of the above quotient category and it has the homotopy category of acyclic complxes as a triangulated subcategory. In the case of the homotopy category of finitely generated projective modules over an Iwanaga-Gorenstein ring, we show that the above quotient category are triangle equivalent to the stable module category of Cohen-Macaulay \opn{T}_2(R)-modules.Comment: 28 page

The Role of Substrate Roughness in Superfluid Film Flow Velocity

It is known that the apparent film flow rate $j_0$ of superfluid $^4$He increases significantly when the container wall is contaminated by a thin layer of solid air. However, its microscopic mechanism has not yet been clarified enough. We have measured $j_0$ under largely different conditions for the container wall in terms of surface area (0.77-6.15 m$^2$) and surface morphology using silver fine powders (particle size: $0.10$ \mu m) and porous glass (pore size: 0.5, 1 \mu m). We could increase $j_0$ by more than two orders of magnitude compared to non-treated smooth glass walls, where liquid helium flows down from the bottom of container as a continuous stream rather than discrete drips. By modeling the surface morphology, we estimated the effective perimeter of container $L_{\mathrm{eff}}$ and calculated the flow rate $j~(= j_0L_0/L_{\mathrm{eff}})$, where $L_0$ is the apparent perimeter without considering the microscopic surface structures. The resultant $j$ values for the various containers are constant each other within a factor of four, suggesting that the enhancement of $L_{\mathrm{eff}}$ plays a major role to change $j_0$ to such a huge extent and that the superfluid critical velocity, $v_{\mathrm{c}}$, does not change appreciably. The measured temperature dependence of $j$ revealed that $v_{\mathrm{c}}$ values in our experiments are determined by the vortex depinning model of Schwarz (Phys. Rev. B $\textbf{31}$, 5782 (1986)) with several nm size pinning sites
