Fluctuation of the Initial Conditions and Its Consequences on Some Observables
We show effects of the event-by-event fluctuation of the initial conditions
(IC) in hydrodynamic description of high-energy nuclear collisions on some
observables. Such IC produce not only fluctuations in observables but, due to
their bumpy structure, several non-trivial effects appear. They enhance
production of isotropically distributed high-pT particles, making v2 smaller
there. Also, they reduce v2 in the forward and backward regions where the
global matter density is smaller, so where such effects become more
efficacious. They may also produce the so-called ridge effect in the two
large-pT particle correlation.Comment: 6 pages, 6 figures, presented at the IV Workshop on Particle

Teleparallel Spin Connection
A new expression for the spin connection of teleparallel gravity is proposed,
given by minus the contorsion tensor plus a zero connection. The corresponding
minimal coupling is covariant under local Lorentz transformation, and
equivalent to the minimal coupling prescription of general relativity. With
this coupling prescription, therefore, teleparallel gravity turns out to be
fully equivalent to general relativity, even in the presence of spinor fields.Comment: 2 pages, RevTeX, to appear in Phys. Rev D (Brief Report
Importance of Granular Structure in the Initial Conditions for the Elliptic Flow
We show effects of granular structure of the initial conditions (IC) of
hydrodynamic description of high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions on some
observables, especially on the elliptic-flow parameter v2. Such a structure
enhances production of isotropically distributed high-pT particles, making v2
smaller there. Also, it reduces v2 in the forward and backward regions where
the global matter density is smaller, so where such effects become more
efficacious.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
Numerical solution of linear models in economics: The SP-DG model revisited
In general, complex and large dimensional models are needed to solve real economic problems. Due to these characteristics, there is either no analytical solution for them or they are not attainable. As a result, solutions can be only obtained through numerical methods. Thus, the growing importance of computers in Economics is not surprising. This paper focuses on an implementation of the SP-DG model, using Matlab,developed by the students as part of the Computational Economics course. We also discuss some of our teaching/learning experience within the course, given for the first time in the FEP Doctoral Programme in Economics.SP-DG Model, Output, Inflation, Numerical Simulation, Teaching of Economics
Phase retrieval by hyperplanes
We show that a scalable frame does phase retrieval if and only if the
hyperplanes of its orthogonal complements do phase retrieval. We then show this
result fails in general by giving an example of a frame for which
does phase retrieval but its induced hyperplanes fail phase retrieval.
Moreover, we show that such frames always exist in for any
dimension . We also give an example of a frame in which fails
phase retrieval but its perps do phase retrieval. We will also see that a
family of hyperplanes doing phase retrieval in must contain at
least hyperplanes. Finally, we provide an example of six hyperplanes in
which do phase retrieval
