Topology of Knotted Optical Vortices
Optical vortices as topological objects exist ubiquitously in nature. In this
paper, by making use of the -mapping topological current theory, we
investigate the topology in the closed and knotted optical vortices. The
topological inner structure of the optical vortices are obtained, and the
linking of the knotted optical vortices is also given.Comment: 11 pages, no figures, accepted by Commun. Theor. Phys. (Beijing, P.

Generally Covariant Conservative Energy-Momentum for Gravitational Anyons
We obtain a generally covariant conservation law of energy-momentum for
gravitational anyons by the general displacement transform. The energy-momentum
currents have also superpotentials and are therefore identically conserved. It
is shown that for Deser's solution and Clement's solution, the energy vanishes.
The reasonableness of the definition of energy-momentum may be confirmed by the
solution for pure Einstein gravity which is a limit of vanishing Chern-Simons
coulping of gravitational anyons.Comment: 12 pages, Latex, no figure
Angular Momentum Conservation Law for Randall-Sundrum Models
In Randall-Sundrum models, by the use of general Noether theorem, the
covariant angular momentum conservation law is obtained with the respect to the
local Lorentz transformations. The angular momentum current has also
superpotential and is therefore identically conserved. The space-like
components of the angular momentum for Randall-Sundrum models are
zero. But the component is infinite.Comment: 10 pages, no figures, accepted by Mod. Phys. Lett.
Angular Momentum of a Brane-world Model
In this paper we discuss the properties of the general covariant angular
momentum of a five-dimensional brane-world model. Through calculating the total
angular momentum of this model, we are able to analyze the properties of the
total angular momentum in the inflationary RS model. We show that the
space-like components of the total angular momentum of are all zero while the
others are non-zero, which agrees with the results from ordinary RS model.Comment: 8 pages; accepted by Chinese Physics
Energy-momentum for Randall-Sundrum models
We investigate the conservation law of energy-momentum for Randall-Sundrum
models by the general displacement transform. The energy-momentum current has a
superpotential and are therefore identically conserved. It is shown that for
Randall-Sundrum solution, the momentum vanishes and most of the bulk energy is
localized near the Planck brane. The energy density is .Comment: 13 pages, no figures, v4: introduction and new conclusion added, v5:

Topological Properties of Spatial Coherence Function
Topology of the spatial coherence function is considered in details. The
phase singularity (coherence vortices) structures of coherence function are
classified by Hopf index and Brouwer degree in topology. The coherence flux
quantization and the linking of the closed coherence vortices are also studied
from the topological properties of the spatial coherence function.Comment: 9 page
