The Fourth SM Family Neutrino at Future Linear Colliders
It is known that Flavor Democracy favors the existence of the fourth standard
model (SM) family. In order to give nonzero masses for the first three family
fermions Flavor Democracy has to be slightly broken. A parametrization for
democracy breaking, which gives the correct values for fundamental fermion
masses and, at the same time, predicts quark and lepton CKM matrices in a good
agreement with the experimental data, is proposed. The pair productions of the
fourth SM family Dirac and Majorana neutrinos at future
linear colliders with GeV, 1 TeV and 3 TeV are considered. The
cross section for the process
and the branching ratios for possible decay modes of the both neutrinos are
determined. The decays of the fourth family neutrinos into muon channels
provide cleanest signature at
colliders. Meanwhile, in our parametrization this channel is
dominant. bosons produced in decays of the fourth family neutrinos will be
seen in detector as either di-jets or isolated leptons. As an example we
consider the production of 200 GeV mass fourth family neutrinos at
GeV linear colliders by taking into account di-muon plus
four-jet events as signatures.Comment: 16 pages, 3 figures, 10 table
Application of the Asymptotic Iteration Method to a Perturbed Coulomb Model
We show that the asymptotic iteration method converges and yields accurate
energies for a perturbed Coulomb model. We also discuss alternative
perturbation approaches to that model.Comment: 9 pages, 2 figures, 1 tabl
Spectral characteristics for a spherically confined -1/r + br^2 potential
We consider the analytical properties of the eigenspectrum generated by a
class of central potentials given by V(r) = -a/r + br^2, b>0. In particular,
scaling, monotonicity, and energy bounds are discussed. The potential is
considered both in all space, and under the condition of spherical confinement
inside an impenetrable spherical boundary of radius R. With the aid of the
asymptotic iteration method, several exact analytic results are obtained which
exhibit the parametric dependence of energy on a, b, and R, under certain
constraints. More general spectral characteristics are identified by use of a
combination of analytical properties and accurate numerical calculations of the
energies, obtained by both the generalized pseudo-spectral method, and the
asymptotic iteration method. The experimental significance of the results for
both the free and confined potential V(r) cases are discussed.Comment: 16 pages, 4 figure
Batch Sequencing and Cooperation
Game theoretic analysis of sequencing situations has been restricted to manufactur- ing systems which consist of machines that can process only one job at a time. However, in many manufacturing systems, operations are carried out by batch machines which can simultaneously process multiple jobs. This paper aims to extend the game theoretical approach to the cost allocation problems arising from sequencing situations on systems that consist of batch machines. We first consider sequencing situations with a single batch machine and analyze cooperative games arising from these situations. It is shown that these games are convex and an expression for the Shapley value of these games is provided. We also introduce an equal gain splitting rule for these sequencing situa- tions and provide an axiomatic characterization. Second, we analyze various aspects of flow-shop sequencing situations which consist of batch machines only. In particular, we provide two cases in which the cooperative game arising from the flow-shop sequencing situation is equal to the game arising from a sequencing situation that corresponds to one specific machine in the flow-shop.Sequencing situations;sequencing games;batch machines
Arbitrary l-state solutions of the rotating Morse potential by the asymptotic iteration method
For non-zero values, we present an analytical solution of the radial
Schr\"{o}dinger equation for the rotating Morse potential using the Pekeris
approximation within the framework of the Asymptotic Iteration Method. The
bound state energy eigenvalues and corresponding wave functions are obtained
for a number of diatomic molecules and the results are compared with the
findings of the super-symmetry, the hypervirial perturbation, the
Nikiforov-Uvarov, the variational, the shifted 1/N and the modified shifted 1/N
expansion methods.Comment: 15 pages with 1 eps figure. accepted for publication in Journal of

Criterion for polynomial solutions to a class of linear differential equation of second order
We consider the differential equations y''=\lambda_0(x)y'+s_0(x)y, where
\lambda_0(x), s_0(x) are C^{\infty}-functions. We prove (i) if the differential
equation, has a polynomial solution of degree n >0, then \delta_n=\lambda_n
s_{n-1}-\lambda_{n-1}s_n=0, where \lambda_{n}=
\lambda_{n-1}^\prime+s_{n-1}+\lambda_0\lambda_{n-1}\hbox{and}\quad
s_{n}=s_{n-1}^\prime+s_0\lambda_{k-1},\quad n=1,2,.... Conversely (ii) if
\lambda_n\lambda_{n-1}\ne 0 and \delta_n=0, then the differential equation has
a polynomial solution of degree at most n. We show that the classical
differential equations of Laguerre, Hermite, Legendre, Jacobi, Chebyshev (first
and second kind), Gegenbauer, and the Hypergeometric type, etc, obey this
criterion. Further, we find the polynomial solutions for the generalized
Hermite, Laguerre, Legendre and Chebyshev differential equations.Comment: 12 page
Solvable Systems of Linear Differential Equations
The asymptotic iteration method (AIM) is an iterative technique used to find
exact and approximate solutions to second-order linear differential equations.
In this work, we employed AIM to solve systems of two first-order linear
differential equations. The termination criteria of AIM will be re-examined and
the whole theory is re-worked in order to fit this new application. As a result
of our investigation, an interesting connection between the solution of linear
systems and the solution of Riccati equations is established. Further, new
classes of exactly solvable systems of linear differential equations with
variable coefficients are obtained. The method discussed allow to construct
many solvable classes through a simple procedure.Comment: 13 page
