    Thin-shell wormholes from the regular Hayward black hole

    Get PDF
    We revisit the regular black hole found by Hayward in 44-dimensional static, spherically symmetric spacetime. To find a possible source for such a spacetime we resort to the non-linear electrodynamics in general relativity. It is found that a magnetic field within this context gives rise to the regular Hayward black hole. By employing such a regular black hole we construct a thin-shell wormhole for the case of various equations of state on the shell. We abbreviate a general equation of state by p=ψ(σ)p=\psi \left( \sigma \right) where pp is the surface pressure which is the function of the mass density (σ\sigma ). In particular, a linear, logarithmic, Chaplygin, etc. forms of equations of state are considered. In each case we study the stability of the thin-shell against linear perturbations. We plot the stability regions by tuning the parameters of the theory. It is observed that the role of the Hayward parameter is to make the TSW more stable. Perturbations of the throat with small velocity condition is also studied. The matter of our TSWs, however, remains to be exotic.Comment: 7 pages 5 figures, extended versio

    KEJAWEN SCIENCE IN JAVANESE MARRIAGE AND ITS IMPLICATIONS FOR HOUSEHOLD HARMONY HOUSEHOLD HARMONY

    Get PDF
    This article discusses the application of kejawen science in marriage. The purpose of writing this article is why some Javanese people still believe and practice kejawen science, especially in marriage, whether kejawen science has an impact on household harmony. Type of qualitative article, object of research in Kotabaru Village, Central Lampung, phenomenological study approach method, primary data sources are parents of married couples, religious leaders and community leaders. Data collection techniques through observation, interviews and documentation. The results showed that the Javanese community still believes and applies kejawen science in marriage. The reason is that it is believed that married couples have different wetons, have conflicting characters and traits, so the implication is that marriage is full of conflict and ends in divorce. Believing in Islamic divination is contradictory and forbidden for the reason of polytheism.Keywords: Kejawen Science, Marriage, Household Harmony

    Colourings of cubic graphs inducing isomorphic monochromatic subgraphs

    Get PDF
    A kk-bisection of a bridgeless cubic graph GG is a 22-colouring of its vertex set such that the colour classes have the same cardinality and all connected components in the two subgraphs induced by the colour classes (monochromatic components in what follows) have order at most kk. Ban and Linial conjectured that every bridgeless cubic graph admits a 22-bisection except for the Petersen graph. A similar problem for the edge set of cubic graphs has been studied: Wormald conjectured that every cubic graph GG with E(G)0(mod2)|E(G)| \equiv 0 \pmod 2 has a 22-edge colouring such that the two monochromatic subgraphs are isomorphic linear forests (i.e. a forest whose components are paths). Finally, Ando conjectured that every cubic graph admits a bisection such that the two induced monochromatic subgraphs are isomorphic. In this paper, we give a detailed insight into the conjectures of Ban-Linial and Wormald and provide evidence of a strong relation of both of them with Ando's conjecture. Furthermore, we also give computational and theoretical evidence in their support. As a result, we pose some open problems stronger than the above mentioned conjectures. Moreover, we prove Ban-Linial's conjecture for cubic cycle permutation graphs. As a by-product of studying 22-edge colourings of cubic graphs having linear forests as monochromatic components, we also give a negative answer to a problem posed by Jackson and Wormald about certain decompositions of cubic graphs into linear forests.Comment: 33 pages; submitted for publicatio

    Performance of modified non-linear shooting method for simulation of 2nd order two-point BVPS

    Get PDF
    In this research article, numerical solution of nonlinear 2nd order two-point boundary value problems (TPBVPs) is discussed by the help of nonlinear shooting method (NLSM), and through the modified nonlinear shooting method (MNLSM). In MNLSM, fourth order Runge-Kutta method for systems is replaced by Adams Bashforth Moulton method which is a predictor-corrector scheme. Results acquired numerically through NLSM and MNLSM of TPBVPs are discussed and analyzed. Results of the tested problems obtained numerically indicate that the performance of MNLSM is rapid and provided desirable results of TPBVPs, meanwhile MNLSM required less time to implement as comparable to the NLSM for the solution of TPBVPs

    A low-cost spatial tool for transforming feature positions of cad-based topographic mapping

    Get PDF
    © 2019 The Author(s). In fact, Computer Aided Design (CAD) offers powerful design tools to produce digital large scale topographic mapping that is considered the backbone for construction projects, urban planning and landscape architecture. Nowadays local agencies in small communities and developing countries are facing some difficulties in map to map transformation and handling discrepancies between the physical reality and represented spatial data due to the need for implementing high cost systems such as GIS and the experienced staff required. Therefore, the require for providing a low-cost tool based on the most common CAD system is very important to guarantee a quality and positional accuracy of features. The main aim of this study is to describe a mathematical relationship to fulfil the coordinate conversion between two different grid references applying two-dimensional conformal polynomial models built on control points and a least squares fitting algorithm. In addition, the automation of this model was performed in the Microsoft Visual Studio environment to calculate polynomial coefficients and convert the positional property of entities in AutoCAD by developing spatial CAD tool. To evaluate the proposed approach the extracted coordinates of check points from the interpolation surface are compared with the known ones

    LINEAR FEATURES IN PHOTOGRAMMETRY

    Get PDF
    Traditional photogrammetric activities such as orientation, triangulation, and object space reconstruction have been relying on distinct points in their underlying operations. With the evolution of digital photogrammetry, there has been a tremendous interest in utilizing linear features in various photogrammetric activities. This interest has been motivated by the fact that the extraction of linear features from the image space is easier to automate than distinct points. On the other hand, object space linear features can be directly derived form terrestrial Mobile Mapping Systems (MMS), GIS databases, and/or existing maps. Moreover, automatic matching of linear features, either within overlapping images or between image and object space, is easier than that of distinct points. Finally, linear features possess more semantic information than distinct points since they most probably correspond to object boundaries. Such semantics can be automatically identified in imagery to facilitate higher-level tasks (e.g., surface reconstruction and object recognition). This paper summarizes the use of linear features, which might be represented by analytical functions (e.g., straight-line segments) or irregular (freeform) shapes, in photogrammetric activities such as automatic space resection, photogrammetric triangulation, camera calibration, image matching, surface reconstruction, image-to-image registration, and absolute orientation. Current progress, future expectations, and possible research directions are discussed as well

    Negative differential Rashba effect in two-dimensional hole systems

    Full text link
    We demonstrate experimentally and theoretically that two-dimensional (2D) heavy hole systems in single heterostructures exhibit a \emph{decrease} in spin-orbit interaction-induced spin splitting with an increase in perpendicular electric field. Using front and back gates, we measure the spin splitting as a function of applied electric field while keeping the density constant. Our results are in contrast to the more familiar case of 2D electrons where spin splitting increases with electric field.Comment: 3 pages, 3 figures. To appear in AP
