A note on modular forms and generalized anomaly cancellation formulas
By studying modular invariance properties of some characteristic forms, we
prove some new anomaly cancellation formulas which generalize the Han-Zhang and
Han-Liu-Zhang anomaly cancellation formula
Korringa ratio of ferromagnetically correlated impure metals
The Korringa ratio, , obtained by taking an appropriate combination
of the Knight shift and nuclear spin-lattice relaxation time, is calculated at
finite temperature, , in the three-dimensional electron gas model, including
the electron-electron interaction, , and non-magnetic impurity scatterings.
varies in a simple way with respect to and ; it decreases as
is increased but increases as is raised. However, varies in a
slightly more complicated way with respect to the impurity scatterings; as the
scattering rate is increased, increases for small and low , but
decreases for large or high regime. This calls for a more careful
analysis when one attempts to estimate the Stoner factor from .Comment: 7 pages including 3 figures. To be published in Phys. Rev. B, Dec.
Bounds for state-dependent quantum cloning
Due to the no-cloning theorem, the unknown quantum state can only be cloned
approximately or exactly with some probability. There are two types of cloners:
universal and state-dependent cloner. The optimal universal cloner has been
found and could be viewed as a special state-dependent quantum cloner which has
no information about the states. In this paper, we investigate the
state-dependent cloning when the state-set contains more than two states. We
get some bounds of the global fidelity for these processes. This method is not
dependent on the number of the states contained in the state-set. It is also
independent of the numbers of copying.Comment: 13 pages, 1 figure, to appear in Phys. Rev.
A general type of twisted anomaly cancellation formulas
For even dimensional manifolds, we prove some twisted anomaly cancellation
formulas which generalize some well-known cancellation formulas. For odd
dimensional manifolds, we obtain some modularly invariant characteristic forms
by the Chern-Simons transgression and we also get some twisted anomaly
cancellation formulas
