An Application of Lorentz Invariance Violation in Black Hole Thermodynamics
In this paper, we have applied the Lorentz-invariance-violation (LIV) class
of dispersion relations (DR) with the dimensionless parameter n = 2 and the
"sign of LIV" {\eta}_+ = 1, to phenomenologically study the effect of quantum
gravity in the strong gravitational field. Specifically, we have studied the
effect of the LIV-DR induced quantum gravity on the Schwarzschild black hole
thermodynamics. The result shows that the effect of the LIV-DR induced quantum
gravity speeds up the black hole evaporation, and its corresponding black hole
entropy undergoes a leading logarithmic correction to the "reduced
Bekenstein-Hawking entropy", and the ill defined situations (i.e. the
singularity problem and the critical problem) are naturally bypassed when the
LIV-DR effect is present. Also, to put our results in a proper perspective, we
have compared with the earlier findings by another quantum gravity candidate,
i.e. the generalized uncertainty principle (GUP). Finally, we conclude from the
inert remnants at the final stage of the black hole evaporation that, the GUP
as a candidate for describing quantum gravity can always do as well as the
LIV-DR by adjusting the model-dependent parameters, but in the same
model-dependent parameters the LIV-DR acts as a more suitable candidate.Comment: 18 pages, 7 figure
Some stability properties of T. Chan’s preconditioner
AbstractA matrix is said to be stable if the real parts of all the eigenvalues are negative. In this paper, for any matrix An, we give some sufficient and necessary conditions for the stability of T. Chan’s preconditioner cU(An)
Nonlocal vibration of embedded double-layer graphene nanoribbons in in-phase and anti-phase modes
Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs), the finite-wide counterparts of crystalline graphene sheets, have been potential materials used in nano-devices because of their excellent electronic, thermal and mechanical properties. In this work, a theoretical analysis of nonlocal elasticity theory for the free vibrational characteristics of embedded double-layer GNRs (DLGNRs) is proposed based on continuum and Winkler spring models. We find two types of vibrational modes, in-phase mode (IPM) and anti-phase mode (APM). The results show that the vibrational properties of DLGNRs show different behaviors in IPM and APM. The natural frequencies of DLGNR embedded in an elastic matrix are significantly influenced by nonlocal effects, the aspect ratio of DLGNRs and the Winkler foundation modulus.ArticlePHYSICA E-LOW-DIMENSIONAL SYSTEMS & NANOSTRUCTURES. 44(7-8):1136-1141 (2012)journal articl
