Joint resummation for pion wave function and pion transition form factor
We construct an evolution equation for the pion wave function in the
factorization theorem, whose solution sums the mixed logarithm
to all orders, with () being a parton momentum fraction (transverse
momentum). This joint resummation induces strong suppression of the pion wave
function in the small and large regions, being the impact parameter
conjugate to , and improves the applicability of perturbative QCD to hard
exclusive processes. The above effect is similar to those from the conventional
threshold resummation for the double logarithm and the conventional
resummation for . Combining the evolution equation for the
hard kernel, we are able to organize all large logarithms in the scattering, and to establish a scheme-independent
factorization formula. It will be shown that the significance of
next-to-leading-order contributions and saturation behaviors of this process at
high energy differ from those under the conventional resummations. It implies
that QCD logarithmic corrections to a process must be handled appropriately,
before its data are used to extract a hadron wave function. Our predictions for
the involved pion transition form factor, derived under the joint resummation
and the input of a non-asymptotic pion wave function with the second Gegenbauer
moment , match reasonably well the CLEO, BaBar, and Belle data.Comment: 31 pages, 7 figure
γ-secretase inhibitors and modulators induce distinct conformational changes in the active sites of γ-secretase and signal peptide peptidase
γ-Secretase inhibitors (GSIs) and modulators (GSMs) are at the frontline of cancer and Alzheimer’s disease research, respectively. While both are therapeutically promising, not much is known about their interactions with proteins other than γ-secretase. Signal peptide peptidase (SPP), like γ-secretase, is a multispan transmembrane aspartyl protease that catalyzes regulated intramembrane proteolysis. We used active site-directed photophore walking probes to study the effects of different GSIs and GSMs on the active sites of γ-secretase and SPP and found that nontransition state GSIs inhibit labeling of γ-secretase by activity-based probes but enhance labeling of SPP. The opposite is true of GSMs, which have little effect on the labeling of γ-secretase but diminish labeling of SPP. These results demonstrate that GSIs and GSMs are altering the structure of not only γ-secretase but also SPP, leading to potential changes in enzyme activity and specificity that may impact the clinical outcomes of these molecules
Set Representations of Linegraphs
Let be a graph with vertex set and edge set . A family
of nonempty sets is a set representation of

is a distinct (respectively, antichain, uniform and simple) set representation
if any two sets and in have the property (respectively, , and ). Let . Two set

representations of a graph . The type of is the number of equivalence
classes under the isomorphism relation. In this paper, we investigate types of
set representations for linegraphs. We determine the types for the following
categories of set representations: simple-distinct, simple-antichain,
simple-uniform and simple-distinct-uniform
Study on wave localization in disordered periodic layered piezoelectric composite structures
AbstractThe two-dimensional wave propagation and localization in disordered periodic layered 2-2 piezoelectric composite structures are studied by considering the mechanic-electric coupling. The transfer matrix between two consecutive sub-layers is obtained based on the continuity conditions. Regarding the variables of mechanical and electrical fields as the elements of the state vector, the expression of the localization factors in disordered periodic layered piezoelectric composite structures is derived. Numerical results are presented for two cases—disorder of the thickness of the polymers and disorder of the piezoelectric and elastic constants of the piezoelectric ceramics. The results show that due to the piezoelectric effects, the characteristics of the wave localization in disordered periodic layered piezoelectric composite structures are different from those in disordered periodic layered purely elastic ones. The wave localization is strengthened due to the piezoelectricity. And the larger the piezoelectric constant is, the larger the wave localization factors are. It is found that slight disorder in the piezoelectric or elastic constants of the piezoelectric ceramics can lead to more prominent localization phenomenon

Hölder Scales of Sea Level
The statistics of sea level is essential in the field of geosciences, ranging from ocean dynamics to climates. The fractal properties of sea level, such as long-range dependence (LRD) or long memory, 1/f noise behavior, and self-similarity (SS), are known. However, the description of its multiscale behavior as well as local roughness with the Hölder exponent h(t) from a view of multifractional Brownian motion (mBm) is rarely reported, to the best of our knowledge. In this research, we will exhibit that there is the multiscale property of sea level based on h(t)s of sea level data recorded by the National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) at six stations in the Florida and Eastern Gulf of Mexico. The contributions of this paper are twofold as follows. (i) Hölder exponent of sea level may not change with time considerably at small time scale, for example, daily time scale, but it varies significantly at large time scale, such as at monthly time scale. (ii) The dispersion of the Hölder exponents of sea level may be different at different stations. This implies that the Hölder roughness of sea level may be spatial dependent
