A 3-form Gauge Potential in 5D in connection with a Possible Dark Sector of 4D-Electrodynamics
We here propose a 5-dimensional {\bf Abelian gauge} model based on the mixing
between a potential and an Abelian 3-form field by means of a
topological mass term. An extended covariant derivative is introduced to
minimally couple a Dirac field to the potential, while this same
covariant derivative non-minimally couples the 3-form field to the charged
fermion. A number of properties are discussed in 5D; in particular, the
appearance of a topological fermionic current. A 4-dimensional reduced version
of the model is investigated and, { \bf in addition to the electric- and
magnetic-sort of fields,} there emerges an extra set of electric- and
magnetic-like fields which contribute a negative pressure and may be identified
as a possible fraction of dark energy. The role of the topological fermionic
current is also contemplated upon dimensional reduction from 5D to 4D. Other
issues we present in 4 space-time dimensions are the emergence {\bf of a
pseudo-scalar massive particle,} an extra massive neutral gauge boson,{\bf
which we interpret as a kind of paraphoton}, and the calculation of spin- and
velocity-dependent interparticle potentials associated to the exchange of the
intermediate bosonic fields of the model.Comment: -- 30 pages -- L. P. R. Ospedal appears as a new co-author;

Noncommutative Metafluid Dynamics
In this paper we define a noncommutative (NC) Metafluid Dynamics
\cite{Marmanis}. We applied the Dirac's quantization to the Metafluid Dynamics
on NC spaces. First class constraints were found which are the same obtained in
\cite{BJP}. The gauge covariant quantization of the non-linear equations of
fields on noncommutative spaces were studied. We have found the extended
Hamiltonian which leads to equations of motion in the gauge covariant form. In
addition, we show that a particular transformation \cite{Djemai} on the usual
classical phase space (CPS) leads to the same results as of the
-deformation with . Besides, we will shown that an additional
term is introduced into the dissipative force due the NC geometry. This is an
interesting feature due to the NC nature induced into model.Comment: 11 page
Nonlethal, Attenuated, Transfusion-Associated Graft-Versus-Host Disease in an Immunocompromised Child: Case Report and Review of the Literature
Transfusion-associated graft-versus-host disease (TA-GVHD) is a rare complication of transfusion of nonirradiated blood components. It usually affects children in high-risk groups, including those who have primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs). It usually presents with skin, hepatic, digestive, and hematologic involvement and is normally fatal
Supersymmetrization of the Radiation Damping
We construct a supersymmetrized version of the model to the radiation damping
\cite{03} introduced by the present authors \cite{ACWF}. We dicuss its
symmetries and the corresponding conserved Noether charges. It is shown this
supersymmetric version provides a supersymmetric generalization of the Galilei
algebra obtained in \cite{ACWF}. We have shown that the supersymmetric action
can be splited into dynamically independent external and internal sectors.Comment: 9 page
Hamiltonian symplectic embedding of the massive noncommutative U(1) Theory
We show that the massive noncommutative U(1) theory is embedded in a gauge
theory using an alternative systematic way, which is based on the symplectic
framework. The embedded Hamiltonian density is obtained after a finite number
of steps in the iterative symplectic process, oppositely to the result proposed
using the BFFT formalism. This alternative formalism of embedding shows how to
get a set of dynamically equivalent embedded Hamiltonian densities.Comment: 16 pages, no figures, revtex4, corrected version, references

Quantum pattern recognition with liquid-state nuclear magnetic resonance
A novel quantum pattern recognition scheme is presented, which combines the
idea of a classic Hopfield neural network with adiabatic quantum computation.
Both the input and the memorized patterns are represented by means of the
problem Hamiltonian. In contrast to classic neural networks, the algorithm can
return a quantum superposition of multiple recognized patterns. A proof of
principle for the algorithm for two qubits is provided using a liquid state NMR
quantum computer.Comment: updated version, Journal-ref adde
