Spectral Weights, d-wave Pairing Amplitudes, and Particle-hole Tunneling Asymmetry of a Strongly Correlated Superconductor

The spectral weights (SW's) for adding and removing an electron of the Gutzwiller projected d-wave superconducting (SC) state of the t-J-type models are studied numerically on finite lattices. Restrict to the uniform system but treat exactly the strong correlation between electrons, we show that the product of weights is equal to the pairing amplitude squared, same as in the weakly coupled case. In addition, we derive a rigorous relation of SW with doping in the electron doped system and obtain particle-hole asymmetry of the conductance-proportional quantity within the SC gap energy and, also, the anti-correlation between gap sizes and peak heights observed in tunneling spectroscopy on high Tc cuprates.Comment: 4 Revtex pages and 4 .eps figures.

Supply Chain Efficiency Analysis: A Theoretical Approach

We divide the supply chain into a central control system (CCS) case and a decentralized control system (DCS) case, and compare the supply chain efficiency with both the CCS case and the DCS case.  We find that the supply chain efficiency of a capital-intensive industry is better under the CCS case than under the DCS case.  Under the CCS case, the maximized supply chain efficiency can be reached by choosing either the lowest price that the upstream firm is willing to receive or the highest price that the downstream firm is willing to pay for intermediate goods
