Phase Space Reduction for Star-Products: An Explicit Construction for CP^n
We derive a closed formula for a star-product on complex projective space and
on the domain using a completely elementary
construction: Starting from the standard star-product of Wick type on and performing a quantum analogue of Marsden-Weinstein
reduction, we can give an easy algebraic description of this star-product.
Moreover, going over to a modified star-product on ,
obtained by an equivalence transformation, this description can be even further
simplified, allowing the explicit computation of a closed formula for the
star-product on \CP^n which can easily transferred to the domain

Integral closure of rings of integer-valued polynomials on algebras
Let be an integrally closed domain with quotient field . Let be a
torsion-free -algebra that is finitely generated as a -module. For every
in we consider its minimal polynomial , i.e. the
monic polynomial of least degree such that . The ring consists of polynomials in that send elements of back to
under evaluation. If has finite residue rings, we show that the
integral closure of is the ring of polynomials in which
map the roots in an algebraic closure of of all the , ,
into elements that are integral over . The result is obtained by identifying
with a -subalgebra of the matrix algebra for some and then
considering polynomials which map a matrix to a matrix integral over . We
also obtain information about polynomially dense subsets of these rings of
polynomials.Comment: Keywords: Integer-valued polynomial, matrix, triangular matrix,

Toeplitz operators on symplectic manifolds
We study the Berezin-Toeplitz quantization on symplectic manifolds making use
of the full off-diagonal asymptotic expansion of the Bergman kernel. We give
also a characterization of Toeplitz operators in terms of their asymptotic
expansion. The semi-classical limit properties of the Berezin-Toeplitz
quantization for non-compact manifolds and orbifolds are also established.Comment: 40 page
Marked changes in electron transport through the blue copper protein azurin in the solid state upon deuteration
Measuring electron transport (ETp) across proteins in the solid-state offers
a way to study electron transfer (ET) mechanism(s) that minimizes solvation
effects on the process. Solid state ETp is sensitive to any static
(conformational) or dynamic (vibrational) changes in the protein. Our
macroscopic measurement technique extends the use of ETp meas-urements down to
low temperatures and the concomitant lower current densities, because the
larger area still yields measurable currents. Thus, we reported previously a
surprising lack of temperature-dependence for ETp via the blue copper protein
azurin (Az), from 80K till denaturation, while ETp via apo-(Cu-free) Az was
found to be temperature de-pendent \geq 200K. H/D substitution (deuteration)
can provide a potentially powerful means to unravel factors that affect the ETp
mechanism at a molecular level. Therefore, we measured and report here the
kinetic deuterium isotope effect (KIE) on ETp through holo-Az as a function of
temperature (30-340K). We find that deuteration has a striking effect in that
it changes ETp from temperature independent to temperature dependent above
180K. This change is expressed in KIE values between 1.8 at 340K and 9.1 at
\leq 180K. These values are particularly remarkable in light of the previously
reported inverse KIE on the ET in Az in solution. The high values that we
obtain for the KIE on the ETp process across the protein monolayer are
consistent with a transport mechanism that involves
through-(H-containing)-bonds of the {\beta}-sheet structure of Az, likely those
of am-ide groups.Comment: 15 pages, 3 figures, 2 Supplementary figure

Light Induced Increase of Electron Diffusion Length in a p n Junction Type CH3NH3PbBr3 Perovskite Solar Cell
High band gap, high open circuit voltage solar cells with methylammonium lead tribromide MAPbBr3 perovskite absorbers are of interest for spectral splitting and photoelectrochemical applications, because of their good performance and ease of processing. The physical origin of high performance in these and similar perovskite based devices remains only partially understood. Using cross sectional electron beaminduced current EBIC measurements, we find an increase in carrier diffusion length in MAPbBr3 Cl based solar cells upon low intensity a few percent of 1 sun intensity blue laser illumination. Comparing dark and illuminated conditions, the minority carrier electron diffusion length increases about 3.5 times from Ln 100 50 nm to 360 22 nm. The EBIC cross section profile indicates a p amp; 8722;n structure between the n FTO TiO2 and p perovskite, rather than the p amp; 8722;i amp; 8722;n structure, reported for the iodide derivative. On the basis of the variation in space charge region width with varying bias, measured by EBIC and capacitance amp; 8722;voltage measurements, we estimate the net doping concentration in MAPbBr3 Cl to be 3 amp; 8722;6 1017 cm amp; 8722;
An explicit formula for the Berezin star product
We prove an explicit formula of the Berezin star product on Kaehler
manifolds. The formula is expressed as a summation over certain strongly
connected digraphs. The proof relies on a combinatorial interpretation of
Englis' work on the asymptotic expansion of the Laplace integral.Comment: 19 pages, to appear in Lett. Math. Phy
Near-flat space limit and Einstein manifolds
We study the near-flat space limit for strings on AdS(5)xM(5), where the
internal manifold M(5) is equipped with a generic metric with U(1)xU(1)xU(1)
isometry. In the bosonic sector, the limiting sigma model is similar to the one
found for AdS(5)xS(5), as the global symmetries are reduced in the most general
case. When M(5) is a Sasaki-Einstein space like T(1,1), Y(p,q) and L(p,q,r),
whose dual CFT's have N=1 supersymmetry, the near-flat space limit gives the
same bosonic sector of the sigma model found for AdS(5)xS(5). This indicates
the generic presence of integrable subsectors in AdS/CFT.Comment: 30 pages, 1 figur
On Gammelgaard's formula for a star product with separation of variables
We show that Gammelgaard's formula expressing a star product with separation
of variables on a pseudo-Kaehler manifold in terms of directed graphs without
cycles is equivalent to an inversion formula for an operator on a formal Fock
space. We prove this inversion formula directly and thus offer an alternative
approach to Gammelgaard's formula which gives more insight into the question
why the directed graphs in his formula have no cycles.Comment: 29 pages, changes made in the last two section
