Direct CP violation in charm at Belle
Using the full data sample collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB
asymmetric-energy collider, we have searched for CP violation of
charmed mesons in and
decays, where denotes and . We observe evidence for CP violation
in decay with 3.2 standard deviations away from
zero, , while the asymmetry is consistent with the
expected CP violation due to the neutral kaon in the final state. No evidence
for CP violation in is observed with
and
. The CP asymmetry difference between
and decays is also measured
with , which is 2.1 standard
deviations away from zero and supports recent LHCb and CDF measurements.Comment: Proceedings of the 36th International Conference on High Energy

First Axion Dark Matter Search with Toroidal Geometry
We report the first axion dark matter search with toroidal geometry.
Exclusion limits of the axion-photon coupling over the
axion mass range from 24.7 to 29.1 eV at the 95\% confidence level are set
through this pioneering search. Prospects for axion dark matter searches with
larger scale toroidal geometry are also given.Comment: Contributed to the 13th Patras Workshop on Axions, WIMPs and WISPs,

Knots and Contact Geometry
We classify Legendrian torus knots and figure eight knots in the tight
contact structure on the 3-sphere up to Legendrian isotopy. As a corollary to
this we also obtain the classification of transversal torus knots and figure
eight knots up to transversal isotopy
