Identifying vital edges in Chinese air route network via memetic algorithm

Due to its rapid development in the past decade, air transportation system has attracted considerable research attention from diverse communities. While most of the previous studies focused on airline networks, here we systematically explore the robustness of the Chinese air route network, and identify the vital edges which form the backbone of Chinese air transportation system. Specifically, we employ a memetic algorithm to minimize the network robustness after removing certain edges hence the solution of this model is the set of vital edges. Counterintuitively, our results show that the most vital edges are not necessarily the edges of highest topological importance, for which we provide an extensive explanation from the microscope of view. Our findings also offer new insights to understanding and optimizing other real-world network systems

Study of the quasi-two-body decays B^{0}_{s} \rightarrow \psi(3770)(\psi(3686))\pi^+\pi^- with perturbative QCD approach

In this note, we study the contributions from the S-wave resonances, f_{0}(980) and f_{0}(1500), to the B^{0}_{s}\rightarrow \psi(3770)\pi^ {+}\pi^{-} decay by introducing the S-wave \pi\pi distribution amplitudes within the framework of the perturbative QCD approach. Both resonant and nonresonant contributions are contained in the scalar form factor in the S-wave distribution amplitude \Phi^S_{\pi\pi}. Since the vector charmonium meson \psi(3770) is a S-D wave mixed state, we calculated the branching ratios of S-wave and D-wave respectively, and the results indicate that f_{0}(980) is the main contribution of the considered decay, and the branching ratio of the \psi(2S) mode is in good agreement with the experimental data. We also take the S-D mixed effect into the B^{0}_{s}\rightarrow \psi(3686)\pi^ {+}\pi^{-} decay. Our calculations show that the branching ratio of B^{0}_{s}\rightarrow \psi(3770)(\psi(3686))\pi^ {+}\pi^{-} can be at the order of 10^{-5}, which can be tested by the running LHC-b experiments.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figure

Van der Waals-like phase transition from holographic entanglement entropy in Lorentz breaking massive gravity

In this paper, phase transition of AdS black holes in lorentz breaking massive gravity has been studied in the framework of holography. We find that there is a first order phase transition(FPT) and second order phase transition(SPT) both in Bekenstein-Hawking entropy(BHE)-temperature plane and holographic entanglement entropy(HEE)-temperature plane. Furthermore, for the FPT, the equal area law is checked and for the SPT, the critical exponent of the heat capacity is also computed. Our results confirm that the phase structure of HEE is similar to that of BHE in lorentz breaking massive gravity, which implies that HEE and BHE have some potential underlying relationship.Comment: 10 pages, 10 figure
