Orbital-resolved vortex core states in FeSe Superconductors: calculation based on a three-orbital model

We study electronic structure of vortex core states of FeSe superconductors based on a t$_{2g}$ three-orbital model by solving the Bogoliubov-de Gennes(BdG) equation self-consistently. The orbital-resolved vortex core states of different pairing symmetries manifest themselves as distinguishable structures due to different quasi-particle wavefunctions. The obtained vortices are classified in terms of the invariant subgroups of the symmetry group of the mean-field Hamiltonian in the presence of magnetic field. Isotropic $s$ and anisotropic $s$ wave vortices have $G_5$ symmetry for each orbital, whereas $d_{x^2-y^2}$ wave vortices show $G^{*}_{6}$ symmetry for $d_{xz/yz}$ orbitals and $G^{*}_{5}$ symmetry for $d_{xy}$ orbital. In the case of $d_{x^2-y^2}$ wave vortices, hybridized-pairing between $d_{xz}$ and $d_{yz}$ orbitals gives rise to a relative phase difference in terms of gauge transformed pairing order parameters between $d_{xz/yz}$ and $d_{xy}$ orbitals, which is essentially caused by a transformation of co-representation of $G^{*}_{5}$ and $G^{*}_{6}$ subgroup. The calculated local density of states(LDOS) of $d_{x^2-y^2}$ wave vortices show qualitatively similar pattern with experiment results. The phase difference of $\frac{\pi}{4}$ between $d_{xz/yz}$ and $d_{xy}$ orbital-resolved $d_{x^2-y^2}$ wave vortices can be verified by further experiment observation

A Multilingual Study of Compressive Cross-Language Text Summarization

Cross-Language Text Summarization (CLTS) generates summaries in a language different from the language of the source documents. Recent methods use information from both languages to generate summaries with the most informative sentences. However, these methods have performance that can vary according to languages, which can reduce the quality of summaries. In this paper, we propose a compressive framework to generate cross-language summaries. In order to analyze performance and especially stability, we tested our system and extractive baselines on a dataset available in four languages (English, French, Portuguese, and Spanish) to generate English and French summaries. An automatic evaluation showed that our method outperformed extractive state-of-art CLTS methods with better and more stable ROUGE scores for all languages

Zero mode effect in the 1−+1^{-+} four quark states

We calculate the masses of the $1^{-+}$ four quark states which decay dominantly into $\rho\pi$ and $\eta\pi$ respectively by QCD sum rules approach. We include the zero mode contribution and find it plays an important role in the sum rules. We predict that the masses of the states $\eta\pi$ and $\rho\pi$ both are 1.4-1.5 GeV. This is close to the experimental candidates $\pi_1(1370)$ and $\pi_1(1440)$.Comment: 5 pages, 4 Postscript figure

Assessing the Prosody of Non-Native Speakers of English: Measures and Feature Sets

In this paper, we describe a new database with audio recordings of non-native (L2) speakers of English, and the perceptual evaluation experiment conducted with native English speakers for assessing the prosody of each recording. These annotations are then used to compute the gold standard using different methods, and a series of regression experiments is conducted to evaluate their impact on the performance of a regression model predicting the degree of Abstract naturalness of L2 speech. Further, we compare the relevance of different feature groups modelling prosody in general (without speech tempo), speech rate and pauses modelling speech tempo (fluency), voice quality, and a variety of spectral features. We also discuss the impact of various fusion strategies on performance.Overall, our results demonstrate that the prosody of non-native speakers of English as L2 can be reliably assessed using supra- segmental audio features; prosodic features seem to be the most important ones

Incompleteness of Representation Theory: Hidden symmetries and Quantum Non-Integrability

Representation theory is shown to be incomplete in terms of enumerating all integrable limits of quantum systems. As a consequence, one can find exactly solvable Hamiltonians which have apparently strongly broken symmetry. The number of these hidden symmetries depends upon the realization of the Hamiltonian.Comment: 4 pages, Revtex, Phys. Rev. Lett. , July 27 (1997), in pres

Mott scattering at the interface between a metal and a topological insulator

We compute the spin-active scattering matrix and the local spectrum at the interface between a metal and a three-dimensional topological band insulator. We show that there exists a critical incident angle at which complete (100%) spin flip reflection occurs and the spin rotation angle jumps by $\pi$. We discuss the origin of this phenomena, and systematically study the dependence of spin-flip and spin-conserving scattering amplitudes on the interface transparency and metal Fermi surface parameters. The interface spectrum contains a well-defined Dirac cone in the tunneling limit, and smoothly evolves into a continuum of metal induced gap states for good contacts. We also investigate the complex band structure of Bi$_2$Se$_3$.Comment: published versio
