Integrable Top Equations associated with Projective Geometry over Z_2
We give a series of integrable top equations associated with the projective
geometry over Z_2 as a (2^n-1)-dimensional generalisation of the 3D Euler top
equations. The general solution of the (2^n-1)D top is shown to be given by an
integration over a Riemann surface with genus (2^{n-1}-1)^2.Comment: 8 pages, Late
Ordered phase and scaling in models and the three-state antiferromagnetic Potts model in three dimensions
Based on a Renormalization-Group picture of symmetric models in three
dimensions, we derive a scaling law for the order parameter in the
ordered phase. An existing Monte Carlo calculation on the three-state
antiferromagnetic Potts model, which has the effective symmetry, is shown
to be consistent with the proposed scaling law. It strongly supports the
Renormalization-Group picture that there is a single massive ordered phase,
although an apparently rotationally symmetric region in the intermediate
temperature was observed numerically.Comment: 5 pages in REVTEX, 2 PostScript figure

Critical Casimir effect and wetting by helium mixtures
We have measured the contact angle of the interface of phase-separated
He-He mixtures against a sapphire window. We have found that this
angle is finite and does not tend to zero when the temperature approaches
, the temperature of the tri-critical point. On the contrary, it increases
with temperature. This behavior is a remarkable exception to what is generally
observed near critical points, i.e. "critical point wetting''. We propose that
it is a consequence of the "critical Casimir effect'' which leads to an
effective attraction of the He-He interface by the sapphire near
.Comment: submitted july 13 (2002), published march 20 (2003
Cohomologically hyperbolic endomorphisms of complex manifolds
We show that if a compact Kahler manifold X admits a cohomologically
hyperbolic surjective endomorphism then its Kodaira dimension is non-positive.
This gives an affirmative answer to a conjecture of Guedj in the holomorphic
case. The main part of the paper is to determine the geometric structure and
the fundamental groups (up to finite index) for those X of dimension 3.Comment: International Journal of Mathematics (to appear
Ground-state electric quadrupole moment of 31Al
Ground-state electric quadrupole moment of 31Al (I =5/2+, T_1/2 = 644(25) ms)
has been measured by means of the beta-NMR spectroscopy using a spin-polarized
31Al beam produced in the projectile fragmentation reaction. The obtained Q
moment, |Q_exp(31Al)| = 112(32)emb, are in agreement with conventional shell
model calculations within the sd valence space. Previous result on the magnetic
moment also supports the validity of the sd model in this isotope, and thus it
is concluded that 31Al is located outside of the island of inversion.Comment: 5 page
