Decay Modes of Intersecting Fluxbranes
Just as the single fluxbrane is quantum mechanically unstable to the
nucleation of a locally charged spherical brane, so intersecting fluxbranes are
unstable to various decay modes. Each individual element of the intersection
can decay via the nucleation of a spherical brane, but uncharged spheres can
also be nucleated in the region of intersection. For special values of the
fluxes, however, intersecting fluxbranes are supersymmetric, and so are
expected to be stable. We explicitly consider the instanton describing the
decay modes of the two--element intersection (an F5-brane in the string theory
context), and show that in dimensions greater than four the action for the
decay mode of the supersymmetric intersection diverges. This observation allows
us to show that stable intersecting fluxbranes should also exist in type 0A
string theory.Comment: 19 pages, 6 figures. References adde

Localized boundary-domain singular integral equations based on harmonic parametrix for divergence-form elliptic PDEs with variable matrix coefficients
This is the post-print version of the Article. The official publised version can be accessed from the links below. Copyright @ 2013 Springer BaselEmploying the localized integral potentials associated with the Laplace operator, the Dirichlet, Neumann and Robin boundary value problems for general variable-coefficient divergence-form second-order elliptic partial differential equations are reduced to some systems of localized boundary-domain singular integral equations. Equivalence of the integral equations systems to the original boundary value problems is proved. It is established that the corresponding localized boundary-domain integral operators belong to the Boutet de Monvel algebra of pseudo-differential operators. Applying the Vishik-Eskin theory based on the factorization method, the Fredholm properties and invertibility of the operators are proved in appropriate Sobolev spaces.This research was supported by the grant EP/H020497/1: "Mathematical Analysis of Localized Boundary-Domain Integral Equations for Variable-Coefficient Boundary Value Problems" from the EPSRC, UK
Rotating Einstein-Yang-Mills Black Holes
We construct rotating hairy black holes in SU(2) Einstein-Yang-Mills theory.
These stationary axially symmetric black holes are asymptotically flat. They
possess non-trivial non-Abelian gauge fields outside their regular event
horizon, and they carry non-Abelian electric charge. In the limit of vanishing
angular momentum, they emerge from the neutral static spherically symmetric
Einstein-Yang-Mills black holes, labelled by the node number of the gauge field
function. With increasing angular momentum and mass, the non-Abelian electric
charge of the solutions increases, but remains finite. The asymptotic expansion
for these black hole solutions includes non-integer powers of the radial
variable.Comment: 63 pages, 10 figure
Collegiate Aviation Students’ Perceptions towards the Integration of Diversity and Inclusion Training: A Qualitative Case Study
Multiple industries have become more supportive and engaging places to work by embedding diversity, equity, and inclusion within their institutional processes. Institutions of higher education have seen the educational benefits of integrating diversity and inclusion principles within their program outcomes. Notably, the aviation industry has seen an increase in diversity, equity, and inclusion practices to attract more customers and increase the number of potential applicants. Yet, there is scant literature on how aviation students at collegiate flight institutions perceive the integration of diversity and inclusion training within the airline industry as part of their career development. This study aimed to understand the graduating aeronautical science students’ perceptions of diversity, equity, and inclusion training in the aviation industry through the diversity training effectiveness theoretical framework
Gauge-Invariant Coordinates on Gauge-Theory Orbit Space
A gauge-invariant field is found which describes physical configurations,
i.e. gauge orbits, of non-Abelian gauge theories. This is accomplished with
non-Abelian generalizations of the Poincare'-Hodge formula for one-forms. In a
particular sense, the new field is dual to the gauge field. Using this field as
a coordinate, the metric and intrinsic curvature are discussed for Yang-Mills
orbit space for the (2+1)- and (3+1)-dimensional cases. The sectional, Ricci
and scalar curvatures are all formally non-negative. An expression for the new
field in terms of the Yang-Mills connection is found in 2+1 dimensions. The
measure on Schroedinger wave functionals is found in both 2+1 and 3+1
dimensions; in the former case, it resembles Karabali, Kim and Nair's measure.
We briefly discuss the form of the Hamiltonian in terms of the dual field and
comment on how this is relevant to the mass gap for both the (2+1)- and
(3+1)-dimensional cases.Comment: Typos corrected, more about the non-Abelian decomposition and inner
products, more discussion of the mass gap in 3+1 dimensions. Now 23 page
Steady-State Properties of Single-File Systems with Conversion
We have used Monte-Carlo methods and analytical techniques to investigate the
influence of the characteristic parameters, such as pipe length, diffusion,
adsorption, desorption and reaction rate constants on the steady-state
properties of Single-File Systems with a reaction. We looked at cases when all
the sites are reactive and when only some of them are reactive. Comparisons
between Mean-Field predictions and Monte-Carlo simulations for the occupancy
profiles and reactivity are made. Substantial differences between Mean-Field
and the simulations are found when rates of diffusion are high. Mean-Field
results only include Single-File behavior by changing the diffusion rate
constant, but it effectively allows passing of particles. Reactivity converges
to a limit value if more reactive sites are added: sites in the middle of the
system have little or no effect on the kinetics. Occupancy profiles show
approximately exponential behavior from the ends to the middle of the system.Comment: 15 pages, 20 figure
