Sum of Three Cubes via Optimisation

By first solving the equation $x^3+y^3+z^3=k$ with fixed $k$ for $z$ and then considering the distance to the nearest integer function of the result, we turn the sum of three cubes problem into an optimisation one. We then apply three stochastic optimisation algorithms to this function in the case with $k=2$, where there are many known solutions. The goal is to test the effectiveness of the method in searching for integer solutions. The algorithms are a modification of particle swarm optimisation and two implementations of simulated annealing. We want to compare their effectiveness as measured by the running times of the algorithms. To this end, we model the time data by assuming two underlying probability distributions -- exponential and log-normal, and calculate some numerical characteristics for them. Finally, we evaluate the statistical distinguishability of our models with respect to the geodesic distance in the manifold with the corresponding Fisher information metric.Comment: 21 pages without the appendices.

Uniqueness theorem for static phantom wormholes in Einstein–Maxwell-dilaton theory

We prove a uniqueness theorem for completely regular traversable electrically charged wormhole solutions in the Einstein–Maxwell-dilaton gravity with a phantom scalar field and a possible phantom electromagnetic field. In a certain region of the parameter space, determined by the asymptotic values of the scalar field and the lapse function, the regular wormholes are completely specified by their mass, scalar charge and electric charge. The argument is based on the positive energy theorem applied on an appropriate conformally transformed Riemannian space

Magnetohydrodynamic calculation of the temperature and wind velocity profile of the solar transition region. Preliminary results.

The sharp almost step like increase the temperature in the transition region (TR) between chromosphere and solar corona is well-known from decades; for first time we are giving a detailed magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) calculation of the height dependence of the temperature. The width of the transition region is evaluated by maximal value of the logarithmic derivative of the temperature. At fixed heating, only MHD can give such a narrow width and in such sense, even the qualitative agreement with the observational data, gives the final verdict what the heating mechanism of the solar corona is. Static profiles of the temperature and wind velocity are calculated for static frequency dependent spectral density of the incoming MHD waves; no time dependent computer simulations. At fixed spectral density of MHD waves, the MHD calculation predicts height dependence of the non-thermal broadening of spectral lines and its angular dependence. For illustration is used one dimensional approximation of completely ionized hydrogen plasma in weak magnetic field, but it is considered that the width of the TR is weakly dependent with respect of further elaboration. The analyzed MHD calculation is a numerical confirmation of the qualitative concept of self-induced opacity of the plasma with respect to MHD waves. The plasma viscosity strongly increases with the temperature. Heated by MHD waves, plasma increases the wave absorption and this positive feedback leads to further heating. The static temperature profile is a result of a self-consistent calculation of propagation of MHD wave through the static background of wind and temperature profile. The numerical method allows consideration of incoming MHD waves with an arbitrary spectral density. Further elaboration of the method are briefly discussed: influence of second viscosity in the chromospheric part of the TR, influence of the magnetic field on the coronal side of the TR and investigation of such type effects on the width of the TR
