    One Dimensional nnary Density Classification Using Two Cellular Automaton Rules

    Full text link
    Suppose each site on a one-dimensional chain with periodic boundary condition may take on any one of the states 0,1,...,n10,1,..., n-1, can you find out the most frequently occurring state using cellular automaton? Here, we prove that while the above density classification task cannot be resolved by a single cellular automaton, this task can be performed efficiently by applying two cellular automaton rules in succession.Comment: Revtex, 4 pages, uses amsfont

    Finding The Sign Of A Function Value By Binary Cellular Automaton

    Full text link
    Given a continuous function f(x)f(x), suppose that the sign of ff only has finitely many discontinuous points in the interval [0,1][0,1]. We show how to use a sequence of one dimensional deterministic binary cellular automata to determine the sign of f(ρ)f(\rho) where ρ\rho is the (number) density of 1s in an arbitrarily given bit string of finite length provided that ff satisfies certain technical conditions.Comment: Revtex, uses amsfonts, 10 page

    On determination of the geometric cosmological constant from the OPERA experiment of superluminal neutrinos

    Full text link
    The recent OPERA experiment of superluminal neutrinos has deep consequences in cosmology. In cosmology a fundamental constant is the cosmological constant. From observations one can estimate the effective cosmological constant Λeff\Lambda_{eff} which is the sum of the quantum zero point energy Λdarkenergy\Lambda_{dark energy} and the geometric cosmological constant Λ\Lambda. The OPERA experiment can be applied to determine the geometric cosmological constant Λ\Lambda. It is the first time to distinguish the contributions of Λ\Lambda and Λdarkenergy\Lambda_{dark energy} from each other by experiment. The determination is based on an explanation of the OPERA experiment in the framework of Special Relativity with de Sitter space-time symmetry.Comment: 7 pages, no figure

    The Ohio State 1991 geopotential and sea surface topography harmonic coefficient models

    The computation is described of a geopotential model to deg 360, a sea surface topography model to deg 10/15, and adjusted Geosat orbits for the first year of the exact repeat mission (ERM). This study started from the GEM-T2 potential coefficient model and it's error covariance matrix and Geosat orbits (for 22 ERMs) computed by Haines et al. using the GEM-T2 model. The first step followed the general procedures which use a radial orbit error theory originally developed by English. The Geosat data was processed to find corrections to the a priori geopotential model, corrections to a radial orbit error model for 76 Geosat arcs, and coefficients of a harmonic representation of the sea surface topography. The second stage of the analysis took place by doing a combination of the GEM-T2 coefficients with 30 deg gravity data derived from surface gravity data and anomalies obtained from altimeter data. The analysis has shown how a high degree spherical harmonic model can be determined combining the best aspects of two different analysis techniques. The error analysis was described that has led to the accuracy estimates for all the coefficients to deg 360. Significant work is needed to improve the modeling effort

    Notes on highest weight modules of the elliptic algebra Aq,p(sl^2){\cal A}_{q,p}\left(\widehat{sl}_2\right)

    Full text link
    We discuss a construction of highest weight modules for the recently defined elliptic algebra Aq,p(sl^2){\cal A}_{q,p}(\widehat{sl}_2), and make several conjectures concerning them. The modules are generated by the action of the components of the operator LL on the highest weight vectors. We introduce the vertex operators Φ\Phi and Ψ\Psi^* through their commutation relations with the LL-operator. We present ordering rules for the LL- and Φ\Phi-operators and find an upper bound for the number of linearly independent vectors generated by them, which agrees with the known characters of sl^2\widehat{sl}_2-modules.Comment: Nonstandard macro package eliminate

    Reduced dynamics with renormalization in solid-state charge qubit measurement

    Full text link
    Quantum measurement will inevitably cause backaction on the measured system, resulting in the well known dephasing and relaxation. In this report, in the context of solid--state qubit measurement by a mesoscopic detector, we show that an alternative backaction known as renormalization is important under some circumstances. This effect is largely overlooked in the theory of quantum measurement.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figure

    Soliton Resonances for MKP-II

    Get PDF
    Using the second flow - the Derivative Reaction-Diffusion system, and the third one of the dissipative SL(2,R) Kaup-Newell hierarchy, we show that the product of two functions, satisfying those systems is a solution of the modified Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation in 2+1 dimension with negative dispersion (MKP-II). We construct Hirota's bilinear representation for both flows and combine them together as the bilinear system for MKP-II. Using this bilinear form we find one and two soliton solutions for the MKP-II. For special values of parameters our solution shows resonance behaviour with creation of four virtual solitons. Our approach allows one to interpret the resonance soliton as a composite object of two dissipative solitons in 1+1 dimensions.Comment: 11 pages, 2 figures, Talk on International Conference "Nonlinear Physics.

    From the Complete Yang Model to Snyder's Model, de Sitter Special Relativity and Their Duality

    Full text link
    By means of Dirac procedure, we re-examine Yang's quantized space-time model, its relation to Snyder's model, the de Sitter special relativity and their UV-IR duality. Starting from a dimensionless dS_5-space in a 5+1-d Mink-space a complete Yang model at both classical and quantum level can be presented and there really exist Snyder's model, the dS special relativity and the duality.Comment: 7 papge
