Representation theory of super Yang-Mills algebras
We study in this article the representation theory of a family of super
algebras, called the \emph{super Yang-Mills algebras}, by exploiting the
Kirillov orbit method \textit{\`a la Dixmier} for nilpotent super Lie algebras.
These super algebras are a generalization of the so-called \emph{Yang-Mills
algebras}, introduced by A. Connes and M. Dubois-Violette in \cite{CD02}, but
in fact they appear as a "background independent" formulation of supersymmetric
gauge theory considered in physics, in a similar way as Yang-Mills algebras do
the same for the usual gauge theory. Our main result states that, under certain
hypotheses, all Clifford-Weyl super algebras \Cliff_{q}(k) \otimes A_{p}(k),
for , or and , appear as a quotient of all super
Yang-Mills algebras, for and . This provides thus a family
of representations of the super Yang-Mills algebras

Low Mannose-Binding Lectin (MBL) genotype is associated with future cardiovascular events in type 2 diabetic South Asians. A prospective cohort study
Background: South Asians have a high burden of type 2 diabetes and vascular complications. Vascular inflammation is considered central in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis, and the complement system is thought to play an important role. Mannose-Binding Lectin (MBL), which activates the lectin pathway of complement activation, has been introduced as a risk marker of vascular damage. The present study explores the association of MBL levels, genotype and cardiovascular events in type 2 diabetic South Asians.Methods: We conducted a prospective observational study. A cohort consisting of 168 type 2 diabetic South Asians was followed for a median duration of 7.66 years. At baseline, MBL levels and genotype were determined. The association with future cardiovascular events was assessed by Cox proportional hazard regression.Results: During follow-up, 31 cardiovascular events occurred in 22 subjects (11 men, 11 women). The O/O genotype was significantly associated with the occurrence of cardiovascular events (hazard ratio 3.42, 95%CI 1.24-9.49, P = 0.018). However, log MBL levels were not associated with the occurrence of cardiovascular events (hazard ratio 0.93, 95% CI 0.50-1.73).Conclusions: In type 2 diabetic South Asians, the O/O MBL genotype is associated with cardiovascular events, although single serum MBL levels are not

Statefinder Parameter for Varying G in Three Fluid System
In this work, we have considered variable G in flat FRW universe filled with
the mixture of dark energy, dark matter and radiation. If there is no
interaction between the three fluids, the deceleration parameter and
statefinder parameters have been calculated in terms of dimensionless density
parameters which can be fixed by observational data. Also the interaction
between three fluids has been analyzed due to constant . The statefinder
parameters also calculated in two cases: pressure is constant and pressure is
variable.Comment: 5 pages, Accepted for publication in "Astrophysics and Space Science
Turning to God in the Face of Ostracism: Effects of Social Exclusion on Religiousness
The present research proposes that individuals who are socially excluded can turn to religion to cope with the experience. Empirical studies conducted to test this hypothesis consistently found that socially excluded persons reported (a) significantly higher levels of religious affiliation (Studies 1, 2, and 4) and (b) stronger intentions to engage in religious behaviors (Study 2) than comparable, nonexcluded individuals. Direct support for the stress-buffering function of religiousness was also found, with a religious prime reducing the aggression-eliciting effects of consequent social rejection (Study 5). These effects were observed in both Christian and Muslim samples, revealing that turning to religion can be a powerful coping response when dealing with social rejection. Theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed
Nuclear shadowing at low Q^2
We re-examine the role of vector meson dominance in nuclear shadowing at low
Q^2. We find that models which incorporate both vector meson and partonic
mechanisms are consistent with both the magnitude and the Q^2 slope of the
shadowing data.Comment: 7 pages, 2 figures; to appear in Phys. Rev.
Interacting Generalised Cosmic Chaplygin gas in Loop quantum cosmology: A singularity free universe
In this work we investigate the background dynamics when dark energy is
coupled to dark matter with a suitable interaction in the universe described by
Loop quantum cosmology. Dark energy in the form of Generalised Cosmic Chaplygin
gas is considered. A suitable interaction between dark energy and dark matter
is taken into account in order to at least alleviate (if not solve) the cosmic
coincidence problem. The dynamical system of equations is solved numerically
and a stable scaling solution is obtained. A significant attempt towards the
solution of the cosmic coincidence problem is taken. The statefinder parameters
are also calculated to classify the dark energy model. Graphs and phase
diagrams are drawn to study the variations of these parameters. It is seen that
the background dynamics of Generalised Cosmic Chaplygin gas is completely
consistent with the notion of an accelerated expansion in the late universe.
From the graphs, generalised cosmic Chaplygin gas is identified as a dark fluid
with a lesser negative pressure compared to Modified Chaplygin gas, thus
supporting a 'No Big Rip' cosmology. It has also been shown that in this model
the universe follows the power law form of expansion around the critical point,
which is consistent with the known results. Future singularities that may be
formed in this model as an ultimate fate of the universe has been studied in
detail. It was found that the model is completely free from any types of future
singularities.Comment: 10 pages, 10 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

On Coloring Resilient Graphs
We introduce a new notion of resilience for constraint satisfaction problems,
with the goal of more precisely determining the boundary between NP-hardness
and the existence of efficient algorithms for resilient instances. In
particular, we study -resiliently -colorable graphs, which are those
-colorable graphs that remain -colorable even after the addition of any
new edges. We prove lower bounds on the NP-hardness of coloring resiliently
colorable graphs, and provide an algorithm that colors sufficiently resilient
graphs. We also analyze the corresponding notion of resilience for -SAT.
This notion of resilience suggests an array of open questions for graph
coloring and other combinatorial problems.Comment: Appearing in MFCS 201
