Sampling rare fluctuations of height in the Oslo ricepile model
We have studied large deviations of the height of the pile from its mean
value in the Oslo ricepile model. We sampled these very rare events with
probabilities of order by Monte Carlo simulations using importance
sampling. These simulations check our qualitative arguement [Phys. Rev. E, {\bf
73}, 021303, 2006] that in steady state of the Oslo ricepile model, the
probability of large negative height fluctuations about
the mean varies as as with
held fixed, and .Comment: 7 pages, 8 figure
Pairs of inner projections and two applications
Orthogonal projections onto closed subspaces of of the
form for inner functions on
are referred to as inner projections, where
denotes the Hardy space over the open unit polydisc . In this
paper, we classify pairs of commuting inner projections. We also present two
seemingly independent applications: the first is an answer to a question posed
by R. G. Douglas, and the second is a complete classification of partially
isometric truncated Toeplitz operators with inner symbols on the polydisc.Comment: 18 page
Probability distribution of residence times of grains in models of ricepiles
We study the probability distribution of residence time of a grain at a site,
and its total residence time inside a pile, in different ricepile models. The
tails of these distributions are dominated by the grains that get deeply buried
in the pile. We show that, for a pile of size , the probabilities that the
residence time at a site or the total residence time is greater than , both
decay as for where
is an exponent , and values of and in the two
cases are different. In the Oslo ricepile model we find that the probability
that the residence time at a site being greater than or equal to ,
is a non-monotonic function of for a fixed and does not obey simple
scaling. For model in dimensions, we show that the probability of minimum
slope configuration in the steady state, for large , varies as where is a constant, and hence .Comment: 13 pages, 23 figures, Submitted to Phys. Rev.
Close Circuit Security System Using At89c51
The purpose of this project is to provide a field that’s depending on less manual operations because everyone is interested in automated systems. To face new challenges in the present day situation automated systems are more accurate, flexible and reliable. Due to these reasons every field prefers automated control systems. Especially in electronics automated systems are doing better job. The ideal system to protect your property is CCTV (Closed Circuit Television) Not only does it act a visual deterrent but the video or digital recording provides an invaluable method of recording crime, violence or anti-social behaviour. CCTV systems offer such a wide area of applications and benefits 24-hours a day. Systems can aid the monitoring of stock, personnel, visitors, access control and prevent health and safety incidences
Probability distribution of residence-times of grains in sandpile models
We show that the probability distribution of the residence-times of sand
grains in sandpile models, in the scaling limit, can be expressed in terms of
the survival probability of a single diffusing particle in a medium with
absorbing boundaries and space-dependent jump rates. The scaling function for
the probability distribution of residence times is non-universal, and depends
on the probability distribution according to which grains are added at
different sites. We determine this function exactly for the 1-dimensional
sandpile when grains are added randomly only at the ends. For sandpiles with
grains are added everywhere with equal probability, in any dimension and of
arbitrary shape, we prove that, in the scaling limit, the probability that the
residence time greater than t is exp(-t/M), where M is the average mass of the
pile in the steady state. We also study finite-size corrections to this
function.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figures, extra file delete
