Scalar Mass Bounds in Two Supersymmetric Extended Electroweak Gauge Models

In two recently proposed supersymmetric extended electroweak gauge models, the reduced Higgs sector at the 100-GeV energy scale consists of only two doublets, but they have quartic scalar couplings different from those of the minimal supersymmetric standard model. In the SU(2) X SU(2) X U(1) model, there is an absolute upper bound of about 145 GeV on the mass of the lightest neutral scalar boson. In the SU(3) X U(1) model, there is only a parameter-dependent upper bound which formally goes to infinity in a particular limitComment: 9 pages (6 figures not included), UCRHEP-T128 (July 1994

Model Predictive Control for Smart Grids with Multiple Electric-Vehicle Charging Stations

Next-generation power grids will likely enable concurrent service for residences and plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs). While the residence power demand profile is known and thus can be considered inelastic, the PEVs' power demand is only known after random PEVs' arrivals. PEV charging scheduling aims at minimizing the potential impact of the massive integration of PEVs into power grids to save service costs to customers while power control aims at minimizing the cost of power generation subject to operating constraints and meeting demand. The present paper develops a model predictive control (MPC)- based approach to address the joint PEV charging scheduling and power control to minimize both PEV charging cost and energy generation cost in meeting both residence and PEV power demands. Unlike in related works, no assumptions are made about the probability distribution of PEVs' arrivals, the known PEVs' future demand, or the unlimited charging capacity of PEVs. The proposed approach is shown to achieve a globally optimal solution. Numerical results for IEEE benchmark power grids serving Tesla Model S PEVs show the merit of this approach

Level anticrossing effect in single-level or multilevel double quantum dots: Electrical conductance, zero-frequency charge susceptibility and Seebeck coefficient

We study electrical and thermoelectrical properties for a double quantum dot system. We consider the cases of both single-level and multilevel quantum dots whatever the way they are coupled, either in a series or in a parallel arrangement. The calculations are performed by using the nonequilibrium Green function theory. In the case of a single-level double quantum dot, the problem is exactly solvable whereas for a multilevel double quantum dot, an analytical solution is obtained in the limit of energy-independent hopping integrals. { We present a detailed discussion about} the dependences of electrical conductance, zero-frequency charge susceptibility and Seebeck coefficient on the gate voltages applied to the dots, allowing us to derive the charge stability diagram. The findings are in agreement with the experimental observations notably with the occurrence of successive sign changes of the Seebeck coefficient when varying the gate voltages. We interpret the results in terms of the bonding and antibonding states produced by the level anticrossing effect which occurs in the presence of a finite interdot coupling. We show that at equilibrium the boundary lines between the domains with different dot occupancies in the charge stability diagram, take place when the bonding and antibonding state levels are aligned with the chemical potentials in the leads. Finally the total dot occupancy is found to be considerably reduced in the case in parallel compared with the case in series, { whenever} the level energies in each dot are equal. We interpret this dip as a direct manifestation of the interference effects occurring in the presence of the two electronic transmission paths provided by each dot.Comment: 18 pages, 13 figure

Maximal LpL^p-regularity for stochastic evolution equations

We prove maximal $L^p$-regularity for the stochastic evolution equation \{{aligned} dU(t) + A U(t)\, dt& = F(t,U(t))\,dt + B(t,U(t))\,dW_H(t), \qquad t\in [0,T], U(0) & = u_0, {aligned}. under the assumption that $A$ is a sectorial operator with a bounded $H^\infty$-calculus of angle less than $\frac12\pi$ on a space $L^q(\mathcal{O},\mu)$. The driving process $W_H$ is a cylindrical Brownian motion in an abstract Hilbert space $H$. For $p\in (2,\infty)$ and $q\in [2,\infty)$ and initial conditions $u_0$ in the real interpolation space \XAp we prove existence of unique strong solution with trajectories in L^p(0,T;\Dom(A))\cap C([0,T];\XAp), provided the non-linearities F:[0,T]\times \Dom(A)\to L^q(\mathcal{O},\mu) and B:[0,T]\times \Dom(A) \to \g(H,\Dom(A^{\frac12})) are of linear growth and Lipschitz continuous in their second variables with small enough Lipschitz constants. Extensions to the case where $A$ is an adapted operator-valued process are considered as well. Various applications to stochastic partial differential equations are worked out in detail. These include higher-order and time-dependent parabolic equations and the Navier-Stokes equation on a smooth bounded domain \OO\subseteq \R^d with $d\ge 2$. For the latter, the existence of a unique strong local solution with values in (H^{1,q}(\OO))^d is shown.Comment: Accepted for publication in SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysi
