Exact solutions to the time-dependent supersymmetric muliphoton Jaynes-Cummings model and the Chiao-Wu model
By using both the Lewis-Riesenfeld invariant theory and the invariant-related
unitary transformation formulation, the present paper obtains the exact
solutions to the time-dependent supersymmetric two-level multiphoton
Jaynes-Cummings model and the Chiao-Wu model that describes the propagation of
a photon inside the optical fiber. On the basis of the fact that the two-level
multiphoton Jaynes-Cummings model possesses the supersymmetric structure, an
invariant is constructed in terms of the supersymmetric generators by working
in the sub-Hilbert-space corresponding to a particular eigenvalue of the
conserved supersymmetric generators (i.e., the time-independent invariant). By
constructing the effective Hamiltonian that describes the interaction of the
photon with the medium of the optical fiber, it is further verified that the
particular solution to the Schr\"{o}dinger equation is the eigenfunction of the
second-quantized momentum operator of photons field. This, therefore, means
that the explicit expression (rather than the hidden form that involves the
chronological product) for the time-evolution operator of wave function is
obtained by means of the invariant theories.Comment: 14 pages, Latex. This is a revised version of the published paper:

Joint & Progressive Learning from High-Dimensional Data for Multi-Label Classification
Despite the fact that nonlinear subspace learning techniques (e.g. manifold
learning) have successfully applied to data representation, there is still room
for improvement in explainability (explicit mapping), generalization
(out-of-samples), and cost-effectiveness (linearization). To this end, a novel
linearized subspace learning technique is developed in a joint and progressive
way, called \textbf{j}oint and \textbf{p}rogressive \textbf{l}earning
str\textbf{a}teg\textbf{y} (J-Play), with its application to multi-label
classification. The J-Play learns high-level and semantically meaningful
feature representation from high-dimensional data by 1) jointly performing
multiple subspace learning and classification to find a latent subspace where
samples are expected to be better classified; 2) progressively learning
multi-coupled projections to linearly approach the optimal mapping bridging the
original space with the most discriminative subspace; 3) locally embedding
manifold structure in each learnable latent subspace. Extensive experiments are
performed to demonstrate the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed
method in comparison with previous state-of-the-art methods.Comment: accepted in ECCV 201
A unified approach to exact solutions of time-dependent Lie-algebraic quantum systems
By using the Lewis-Riesenfeld theory and the invariant-related unitary
transformation formulation, the exact solutions of the {\it time-dependent}
Schr\"{o}dinger equations which govern the various Lie-algebraic quantum
systems in atomic physics, quantum optics, nuclear physics and laser physics
are obtained. It is shown that the {\it explicit} solutions may also be
obtained by working in a sub-Hilbert-space corresponding to a particular
eigenvalue of the conserved generator ({\it i. e.}, the {\it time-independent}
invariant) for some quantum systems without quasi-algebraic structures. The
global and topological properties of geometric phases and their adiabatic limit
in time-dependent quantum systems/models are briefly discussed.Comment: 11 pages, Latex. accepted by Euro. Phys. J.
Gravitomagnetic Field and Time-Dependent Spin-Rotation Coupling
The Kerr metric of spherically symmetric gravitational field is analyzed
through the coordinate transformation from the rotating frame to fixing frame,
and consequently that the inertial force field (with the exception of the
centrifugal force field) in the rotating system is one part of its
gravitomagnetic field is verified. We investigate the spin-rotation coupling
and, by making use of Lewis-Riesenfeld invariant theory, we obtain exact
solutions of the Schr\"{o}dinger equation of a spinning particle in a
time-dependent rotating reference frame. A potential application of these exact
solutions to the investigation of Earths rotating frequency fluctuation
by means of neutron-gravity interferometry experiment is briefly discussed in
the present paper.Comment: 6 pages, 0 figures, Late
Tumor-associated EGFR over-expression specifically activates Stat3 and Smad7 resulting in desensitization of TGF-β signaling
Transforming Growth Factor-[beta] (TGF-[beta]) and Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) signaling pathways are both independently implicated as key regulators in tumor formation and progression. Here, we demonstrate that activation of the tumor-associated and over-expressed EGFR desensitizes TGF-[beta] signaling and its cytostatic regulation through specific Stat3 activation and Smad7 induction. In normal and tumor human cell lines, reduction of TGF-[beta]-mediated Smad2 phosphorylation, nuclear translocation and Smad3 target gene activation were observed where EGFR is over-expressed, but not in cells which expressed EGFR at normal levels. The EGFR downstream signaling molecules phosphatidyinositol-3 Kinase (PI3K) or mitogen-activated protein kinase/ERK kinase (MEK) are not responsible for the down-regulation of TGF-[beta] signaling since blockade of them by specific pharmacological inhibitors LY294002 and U0126 had little effects on the sensitivity of TGF-[beta] signaling. We identified Stat3 as a signaling molecule activated specifically and persistently by over-expressed EGFR, but not by normal levels. Importantly, Stat3 is responsible for the reduced TGF-[beta] sensitivity, since its knockdown by siRNA restored TGF-[beta] signaling sensitivity. Furthermore, over-expressed EGFR, through Stat3 activates Smad7 promoter activity, increasing its protein levels, which is a negative regulator of TGF-[beta] signaling. Consequently, cells were re-sensitized to TGF-[beta] when Smad7 expression was reduced using siRNA. Therefore we establish a novel EGFR-Stat3-Smad7-TGF-[beta] signaling molecular axis where tumor-associated over-expression of EGFR in epithelial cells results in hyperactivation of Stat3, which activates Smad7 expression, compromising the TGF-[beta]'s cytostatic regulation of epithelium and consequent tumor formation
