Extremal primes for elliptic curves without complex multiplication
Fix an elliptic curve E over Q. An extremal prime for E is a prime p of good reduction such that the number of rational points on E modulo p is maximal or minimal in relation to the Hasse bound. Assuming that all the symmetric power L-functions associated to E are automorphic and satisfy the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we give the first non-trivial upper bounds for the number of such primes when E is a curve without complex multiplication. In order to obtain this bound, we use explicit equidistribution for the Sato-Tate measure as in the work of Rouse and Thorner (arXiv:1305.5283) and refine certain intermediate estimates taking advantage of the fact that extremal primes have a very small Sato-Tate measure
Abelian 2-form gauge theory: superfield formalism
We derive the off-shell nilpotent Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) and
anti-BRST symmetry transformations for {\it all} the fields of a free Abelian
2-form gauge theory by exploiting the geometrical superfield approach to BRST
formalism. The above four (3 + 1)-dimensional (4D) theory is considered on a
(4, 2)-dimensional supermanifold parameterized by the four even spacetime
variables x^\mu (with \mu = 0, 1, 2, 3) and a pair of odd Grassmannian
variables \theta and \bar\theta (with \theta^2 = \bar\theta^2 = 0, \theta
\bar\theta + \bar\theta \theta = 0). One of the salient features of our present
investigation is that the above nilpotent (anti-)BRST symmetry transformations
turn out to be absolutely anticommuting due to the presence of a Curci-Ferrari
(CF) type of restriction. The latter condition emerges due to the application
of our present superfield formalism. The actual CF condition, as is well-known,
is the hallmark of a 4D non-Abelian 1-form gauge theory. We demonstrate that
our present 4D Abelian 2-form gauge theory imbibes some of the key signatures
of the 4D non-Abelian 1-form gauge theory. We briefly comment on the
generalization of our supperfield approach to the case of Abelian 3-form gauge
theory in four (3 + 1)-dimensions of spacetime.Comment: LaTeX file, 23 pages, journal versio
Equidistribution of p alpha p theta with a Chebotarev condition and applications to
We establish a joint distribution result concerning the fractional part of for , where is a prime satisfying a Chebotarev condition in a fixed finite Galois extension over . As an application, for a fixed non-CM elliptic curve , an asymptotic formula is given for the number of primes at the extremes of the Sato-Tate measure modulo a large prime . These are precisely the primes for which the Frobenius trace satisfies the congruence . We assume a zero-free region hypothesis for Dedekind zeta functions of number fields
Geometrical Aspects Of BRST Cohomology In Augmented Superfield Formalism
In the framework of augmented superfield approach, we provide the geometrical
origin and interpretation for the nilpotent (anti-)BRST charges, (anti-)co-BRST
charges and a non-nilpotent bosonic charge. Together, these local and conserved
charges turn out to be responsible for a clear and cogent definition of the
Hodge decomposition theorem in the quantum Hilbert space of states. The above
charges owe their origin to the de Rham cohomological operators of differential
geometry which are found to be at the heart of some of the key concepts
associated with the interacting gauge theories. For our present review, we
choose the two -dimensional (2D) quantum electrodynamics (QED) as a
prototype field theoretical model to derive all the nilpotent symmetries for
all the fields present in this interacting gauge theory in the framework of
augmented superfield formulation and show that this theory is a {\it unique}
example of an interacting gauge theory which provides a tractable field
theoretical model for the Hodge theory.Comment: LaTeX file, 25 pages, Ref. [49] updated, correct page numbers of the

Harmful Gases Profiling in Meru Menora Tunnel using SICK Sensor
This paper discusses the study on the measured harmful gases due to traffic emission in the Meru Menora Tunnel, a Malaysia highway tunnel. The hazardous gasses data would help in promoting essential ventilation system inside the tunnel for the health and safety of the users. The emission gasses concentration reading is divided into two main components comprise of Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), and Carbon Monoxide (CO). Other than that, the visibility also been measured by using SICK sensor. The measurement has been done during normal, festive and school holiday seasons. Festive season shows the highest number of traffic and thus giving the worst air quality. Ventilation fan system can be activated based on the concentration level of gases and visibility in the tunnel
Nilpotent Symmetries For Matter Fields In Non-Abelian Gauge Theory: Augmented Superfield Formalism
In the framework of superfield approach to Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST)
formalism, the derivation of the (anti-)BRST nilpotent symmetries for the
matter fields, present in any arbitrary interacting gauge theory, has been a
long-standing problem. In our present investigation, the local, covariant,
continuous and off-shell nilpotent (anti-)BRST symmetry transformations for the
Dirac fields are derived in the framework of the augmented
superfield formulation where the four -dimensional (4D) interacting
non-Abelian gauge theory is considered on the six -dimensional
supermanifold parametrized by the four even spacetime coordinates and a
couple of odd elements ( and ) of the Grassmann algebra.
The requirement of the invariance of the matter (super)currents and the
horizontality condition on the (super)manifolds leads to the derivation of the
nilpotent symmetries for the matter fields as well as the gauge- and the
(anti-)ghost fields of the theory in the general scheme of the augmented
superfield formalism.Comment: LaTeX file, 16 pages, printing mistakes in the second paragraph of

Cohomological aspects of Abelian gauge theory
We discuss some aspects of cohomological properties of a two-dimensional free
Abelian gauge theory in the framework of BRST formalism. We derive the
conserved and nilpotent BRST- and co-BRST charges and express the Hodge
decomposition theorem in terms of these charges and a conserved bosonic charge
corresponding to the Laplacian operator. It is because of the topological
nature of free U(1) gauge theory that the Laplacian operator goes to zero when
equations of motion are exploited. We derive two sets of topological invariants
which are related to each-other by a certain kind of duality transformation and
express the Lagrangian density of this theory as the sum of terms that are
BRST- and co-BRST invariants. Mathematically, this theory captures together
some of the key features of Witten- and Schwarz type of topological field
theories.Comment: 12 pages, LaTeX, no figures, Title and text have been slightly
