A Critical Examination to the Unitarized Scattering Chiral Amplitudes
We discuss the Pad\'e approximation to the scattering amplitudes in
1--loop chiral perturbation theory. The approximation restores unitarity and
can reproduce the correct resonance poles, but the approximation violates
crossing symmetry and produce spurious poles on the complex plane and
therefore plagues its predictions on physical quantities at quantitative level.
However we find that one virtual state in the IJ=20 channel may have physical
relevance.Comment: 13 pages + 4 eps figures submit to Commun. Theor. Phy
Detecting and Explaining Causes From Text For a Time Series Event
Explaining underlying causes or effects about events is a challenging but
valuable task. We define a novel problem of generating explanations of a time
series event by (1) searching cause and effect relationships of the time series
with textual data and (2) constructing a connecting chain between them to
generate an explanation. To detect causal features from text, we propose a
novel method based on the Granger causality of time series between features
extracted from text such as N-grams, topics, sentiments, and their composition.
The generation of the sequence of causal entities requires a commonsense
causative knowledge base with efficient reasoning. To ensure good
interpretability and appropriate lexical usage we combine symbolic and neural
representations, using a neural reasoning algorithm trained on commonsense
causal tuples to predict the next cause step. Our quantitative and human
analysis show empirical evidence that our method successfully extracts
meaningful causality relationships between time series with textual features
and generates appropriate explanation between them.Comment: Accepted at EMNLP 201
Analyticity and the counting rule of matrix poles
By studying scattering amplitudes in the large limit, we
clarify the dependence of the matrix pole position. It is
demonstrated that analyticity and the counting rule exclude the existence
of matrix poles with . Especially the properties
of and with respect to the expansion are discussed.
We point out that in general tetra-quark resonances do not exist.Comment: This paper replaces hep-ph/0412175. The latter is withdraw
A Bayesian Approach for Characterizing and Mitigating Gate and Measurement Errors
Various noise models have been developed in quantum computing study to
describe the propagation and effect of the noise which is caused by imperfect
implementation of hardware. Identifying parameters such as gate and readout
error rates are critical to these models. We use a Bayesian inference approach
to identity posterior distributions of these parameters, such that they can be
characterized more elaborately. By characterizing the device errors in this
way, we can further improve the accuracy of quantum error mitigation.
Experiments conducted on IBM's quantum computing devices suggest that our
approach provides better error mitigation performance than existing techniques
used by the vendor. Also, our approach outperforms the standard Bayesian
inference method in such experiments.Comment: Updated the introduction and the description of methodology in the

NUMERICAL STUDY ON PROPULSIVE FACTORS IN REGULAR HEAD AND OBLIQUE WAVES
This paper applies Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) method to study propulsion performance in head and oblique waves. Finite volume method (FVM) is employed to discretize the governing equations and SST k-ω model is used for modeling the turbulent flow. The free surface is solved by volume of fluid (VOF) method. Sliding mesh technique is used to enable rotation of propeller. Propeller open water curves are determined by propeller open water simulations. Calm water resistance and wave added resistances are obtained from towing computations without propeller. Self-propulsion simulations in calm water and waves with varying loads are performed to obtain self-propulsion point and thrust identify method is use to predict propulsive factors. Regular head waves with wavelengths varying from 0.6 to 1.4 times the length of ship and oblique waves with incident directions varying from 0° to 360° are considered. The influence of waves on propulsive factors, including thrust deduction and wake fraction, open water, relative rotative, hull and propulsive efficiencies are discussed
