    Dyonic Black Holes in String Theory

    Full text link
    An exact solution of the low-energy string theory representing static, spherical symmetric dyonic black hole is found. The solution is labeled by their mass, electric charge, magnetic charge and asymptotic value of the scalar dilaton. Some interesting properties of the dyonic black holes are studied. In particular, the Hawking temperature of dyonic black holes depends on both the electric and magnetic charges, and the extremal ones, which have nonzero electric and magnetic charges, have zero temperature but nonzero entropy. These properties are quite different from those of electrically (or magnetically) charged dilaton black holes found by Gibbons {\it et al.} and Garfinkle {\it et al.}, but are the same as those of the dyonic black holes found by Gibbons and Maeda. After this paper was submitted for publication, D. Wiltshire told us that solutions, eqs.(22)-(28), are related to Gibbons-Maeda dyonic black hole solutions by a coordinate transformation and some parameters reparametization \cite{26}. And, we were also informed that many of our results were previously obtained by Kallosh {\it et al.} \cite{27}. The dyonic black hole solutions, eqs.(22)-(28), are also related to those of reference \cite{27} by another coordinateComment: 20 pages, 2 figures not included, LATEX, revised versio

    Information Filtering on Coupled Social Networks

    Full text link
    In this paper, based on the coupled social networks (CSN), we propose a hybrid algorithm to nonlinearly integrate both social and behavior information of online users. Filtering algorithm based on the coupled social networks, which considers the effects of both social influence and personalized preference. Experimental results on two real datasets, \emph{Epinions} and \emph{Friendfeed}, show that hybrid pattern can not only provide more accurate recommendations, but also can enlarge the recommendation coverage while adopting global metric. Further empirical analyses demonstrate that the mutual reinforcement and rich-club phenomenon can also be found in coupled social networks where the identical individuals occupy the core position of the online system. This work may shed some light on the in-depth understanding structure and function of coupled social networks

    AbstractThe total chromatic number χt(G) of a graph G is the least number of colors needed to color the vertices and edges of G so that no adjacent vertices or edges receive the same color, no incident edges receive the same color as either of the vertices it is incident with. In this paper, we obtain some results of the total chromatic number of the equibipartite graphs of order 2n with maximum degree n − 1. As a part of our results, we disprove the biconformability conjecture

    Definition of Multi-State Weighted k-out-of-n: F System

    No full text
    International audienceThe Multi-state Weighted k-out-of-n System model is the generalization of the Multi-state k-out-of-n System model, which finds wide applications in industry. However only Multi-state Weighted k-out-of-n: G System models have been defined and studied in most recent research works. The mirror image of the Multi-state Weighted k-out-of-n: G System - the Multi-state Weighted k-out-of-n: F System has not been clearly defined and discussed. In this short communication, the basic definition of the Multi-state Weighted k-out-of-n: F System model is proposed. The relationship between the Multi-state Weighted k-out-of-n: G System and the Multi-state Weighted k-out-of-n: F System is also analyzed
