Thin subsets of groups

For a group $G$ and a natural number $m$, a subset $A$ of $G$ is called $m$-thin if, for each finite subset $F$ of $G$, there exists a finite subset $K$ of $G$ such that $|Fg\cap A|\leqslant m$ for every $g\in G\setminus K$. We show that each $m$-thin subset of a group $G$ of cardinality $\aleph_n$, $n= 0,1,...$ can be partitioned into $\leqslant m^{n+1}$ 1-thin subsets. On the other side, we construct a group $G$ of cardinality $\aleph_\omega$ and point out a 2-thin subset of $G$ which cannot be finitely partitioned into 1-thin subsets

The comb-like representations of cellular ordinal balleans

Given two ordinal $\lambda$ and $\gamma$, let $f:[0,\lambda) \rightarrow [0,\gamma)$ be a function such that, for each $\alpha<\gamma$, $\sup\{f(t): t\in[0, \alpha]\}<\gamma.$ We define a mapping $d_{f}: [0,\lambda)\times [0,\lambda) \longrightarrow [0,\gamma)$ by the rule: if $x<y$ then $d_{f}(x,y)= d_{f}(y,x)= \sup\{f(t): t\in(x,y]\}$, $d(x,x)=0$. The pair $([0,\lambda), d_{f})$ is called a $\gamma-$comb defined by $f$. We show that each cellular ordinal ballean can be represented as a $\gamma-$comb. In {\it General Asymptology}, cellular ordinal balleans play a part of ultrametric spaces.Comment: 5 pages, preprin

Extraresolvability of balleans

summary:A ballean is a set endowed with some family of balls in such a way that a ballean can be considered as an asymptotic counterpart of a uniform topological space. We introduce and study a new cardinal invariant of a ballean, the extraresolvability, which is an asymptotic reflection of the corresponding invariant of a topological space

Nanoparticles as a possible moderator for an ultracold neutron source

Ultracold and very cold neutrons (UCN and VCN) interact strongly with nanoparticles due to the similarity of their wavelengths and nanoparticles sizes. We analyze the hypothesis that this interaction can provide efficient cooling of neutrons by ultracold nanoparticles at certain experimental conditions, thus increasing the density of UCN by many orders of magnitude. The present analytical and numerical description of the problem is limited to the model of independent nanoparticles at zero temperature. Constraints of application of this model are discussed

Centrifugal quantum states of neutrons

We propose a method for observation of the quasi-stationary states of neutrons, localized near the curved mirror surface. The bounding effective well is formed by the centrifugal potential and the mirror Fermi-potential. This phenomenon is an example of an exactly solvable "quantum bouncer" problem that could be studied experimentally. It could provide a promising tool for studying fundamental neutron-matter interactions, as well as quantum neutron optics and surface physics effects. We develop formalism, which describes quantitatively the neutron motion near the mirror surface. The effects of mirror roughness are taken into account.Comment: 13 pages, 10 figure

Quantum motion of a neutron in a wave-guide in the gravitational field

We study theoretically the quantum motion of a neutron in a horizontal wave-guide in the gravitational field of the Earth. The wave-guide in question is equipped with a mirror below and a rough absorber above. We show that such a system acts as a quantum filter, i.e. it effectively absorbs quantum states with sufficiently high transversal energy but transmits low-energy states. The states transmitted are mainly determined by the potential well formed by the gravitational field of the Earth and the mirror. The formalism developed for quantum motion in an absorbing wave-guide is applied to the description of the recent experiment on the observation of the quantum states of neutrons in the Earth's gravitational field

Research of interferential factors of accounting and evaluation of cryptocurrency in the practical business model of a company

Cryptocurrency is a modern phenomenon of the digital economy, which is gradually becoming part of the business processes of companies of various profiles and economic sectors. The presence of unsettled issues at the legislative level of jurisdictions, as well as the ambiguity of approaches to the classification and assessment of cryptocurrency in financial reporting, gives rise to discussions of both practical and scientific nature. For trade organizations, the need to resolve this issue is evident, since already now businesses are considering the possibility of accepting payment for goods with some types of cryptocurrencies, as well as using cryptocurrencies to pay for the resources the company needs
