Fermionic reductions of the AdS4 x CP3 superstring

We discuss fermionic reductions of type IIA superstrings on AdS4 x CP3 in relation to the conjectured AdS4/CFT3 duality. The superstring theory is described by means of a coset model construction, which is classically integrable. We discuss the global light-cone symmetries of the action and related kappa-symmetry gauge choices, and also present the complete quartic action in covariant form with respect to these. Further, we study integrable (fermionic) reductions, in particular, a reduction yielding a quadratic action of two complex fermions on the string world-sheet. Interestingly, this model appears to be exactly the same as the corresponding integrable reduction found in the AdS5 x S5 case.Comment: 24 pages, v3 as publishe

Monogamy of Bell's inequality violations in non-signaling theories

We derive monogamy relations (tradeoffs) between strengths of violations of Bell's inequalities from the non-signaling condition. Our result applies to general Bell inequalities with an arbitrary large number of partners, outcomes and measurement settings. The method is simple, efficient and does not require linear programming. The results are used to derive optimal fidelity for asymmetric cloning in nonsignaling theories.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures, published versio

High spin particles with spin-mass coupling

The classical and quantum model of high spin particles is proposed and analyzed in this paper. The covariant quantization leads to the spectrum of the particles with the masses correlated with their spins. The particles (and anti-particles) appear to be orphaned as their potential anti-particle partners are of different mass.Comment: 11 pages, 1 figure, the paper accepted for publication in Advances in Applied Clifford Algebr

Ileostomy Adenocarcinoma : a case report

Proctocolectomy is the standard treatment for patients suffering from ulcerative colitis which is long-standing, refractory to pharmacotherapy or otherwise associated with complications. An ileal pouch with pouch-anal anastomosis is fashioned in the majority of cases; however, in some instances terminal ileostomy is preferable. Ileostomy cancer is rare but a number of cases have been reported over the past twenty years suggesting a rising incidence. We report a case that developed thirty years post-operatively.peer-reviewe
