Branching ratios and asymmetries of decays
We investigate the exclusive nonleptonic decays in the conventional perturbative QCD (PQCD) formalism. The
predictions of branching ratios and asymmetries are given in detail. We
compare our results with available experimental data as well as predictions of
other theoretical studies existing in the literature. It seems that the
branching ratios of are more consistent with data
than the earlier analyses. For the Cabibbo-suppressed decay, the
branching ratio can reach the order of , which would be straight
forward for experimental observations. The numerical results show that the
direct asymmetries of the concerned decays are rather small. The
mixing-induced asymmetry in the is very
close to , which suggests that this channel offer an alternative
method for measuring the Cabbibo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) angle . The
obtained results in the present work could be tested by further experiments in
the LHCb and forthcoming Belle II.Comment: 8 pages, 1 figur
Stability Analysis of Integral Delay Systems with Multiple Delays
This note is concerned with stability analysis of integral delay systems with
multiple delays. To study this problem, the well-known Jensen inequality is
generalized to the case of multiple terms by introducing an individual slack
weighting matrix for each term, which can be optimized to reduce the
conservatism. With the help of the multiple Jensen inequalities and by
developing a novel linearizing technique, two novel Lyapunov functional based
approaches are established to obtain sufficient stability conditions expressed
by linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). It is shown that these new conditions are
always less conservative than the existing ones. Moreover, by the positive
operator theory, a single LMI based condition and a spectral radius based
condition are obtained based on an existing sufficient stability condition
expressed by coupled LMIs. A numerical example illustrates the effectiveness of
the proposed approaches.Comment: 14 page
