On the energy of charged black holes in generalized dilaton-axion gravity
In this paper we calculate the energy distribution of some charged black
holes in generalized dilaton-axion gravity. The solutions correspond to charged
black holes arising in a Kalb-Ramond-dilaton background and some existing
non-rotating black hole solutions are recovered in special cases. We focus our
study to asymptotically flat and asymptotically non-flat types of solutions and
resort for this purpose to the M{\o}ller prescription. Various aspects of
energy are also analyzed.Comment: LaTe
Cosmological applications in Kaluza-Klein theory
The field equations of Kaluza-Klein (KK) theory have been applied in the
domain of cosmology. These equations are solved for a flat universe by taking
the gravitational and the cosmological constants as a function of time t. We
use Taylor's expansion of cosmological function, , up to the first
order of the time . The cosmological parameters are calculated and some
cosmological problems are discussed.Comment: 14 pages Latex, 5 figures, one table. arXiv admin note: text overlap

Composing and Factoring Generalized Green's Operators and Ordinary Boundary Problems
We consider solution operators of linear ordinary boundary problems with "too
many" boundary conditions, which are not always solvable. These generalized
Green's operators are a certain kind of generalized inverses of differential
operators. We answer the question when the product of two generalized Green's
operators is again a generalized Green's operator for the product of the
corresponding differential operators and which boundary problem it solves.
Moreover, we show that---provided a factorization of the underlying
differential operator---a generalized boundary problem can be factored into
lower order problems corresponding to a factorization of the respective Green's
operators. We illustrate our results by examples using the Maple package
IntDiffOp, where the presented algorithms are implemented.Comment: 19 page
Pinning Susceptibility: The Effect Of Dilute, Quenched Disorder On Jamming
We study the effect of dilute pinning on the jamming transition. Pinning reduces the average contact number needed to jam unpinned particles and shifts the jamming threshold to lower densities, leading to a pinning susceptibility, χp. Our main results are that this susceptibility obeys scaling form and diverges in the thermodynamic limit as χp∝|ϕ−ϕ∞c|−γp where ϕ∞c is the jamming threshold in the absence of pins. Finite-size scaling arguments yield these values with associated statistical (systematic) errors γp=1.018±0.026(0.291) in d=2 and γp=1.534±0.120(0.822) in d=3. Logarithmic corrections raise the exponent in d=2 to close to the d=3 value, although the systematic errors are very large
