Geometry and Representations of the Quantum Supergroup OSPq(1|2n)
The quantum supergroup OSPq(1|2n) is studied systematically. A Haar
functional is constructed, and an algebraic version of the Peter - Weyl theory
is extended to this quantum supergroup. Quantum homogeneous superspaces and
quantum homogeneous supervector bundles are defined following the strategy of
Connes' theory. Parabolic induction is developed by employing the quantum
homogeneous supervector bundles. Quantum Frobenius reciprocity and a
generalized Borel - Weil theorem are established for the induced
representations.Comment: Latex, 20 page
Fully automatic telemetry data processor
Satellite Telemetry Automatic Reduction System /STARS 2/, a fully automatic computer-controlled telemetry data processor, maximizes data recovery, reduces turnaround time, increases flexibility, and improves operational efficiency. The system incorporates a CDC 3200 computer as its central element
k-server via multiscale entropic regularization
We present an -competitive randomized algorithm for the
-server problem on hierarchically separated trees (HSTs). This is the first
-competitive randomized algorithm for which the competitive ratio is
independent of the size of the underlying HST. Our algorithm is designed in the
framework of online mirror descent where the mirror map is a multiscale
entropy. When combined with Bartal's static HST embedding reduction, this leads
to an -competitive algorithm on any -point metric
space. We give a new dynamic HST embedding that yields an -competitive algorithm on any metric space where the ratio of the
largest to smallest non-zero distance is at most
Enhancing Ionic Conductivity of Bulk Single Crystal Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia by Tailoring Dopant Distribution
We present an ab-initio based kinetic Monte Carlo model for ionic
conductivity in single crystal yttria-stabilized zirconia. Ionic interactions
are taken into account by combining density functional theory calculations and
the cluster expansion method and are found to be essential in reproducing the
effective activation energy observed in experiments. The model predicts that
the effective energy barrier can be reduced by 0.15-0.25 eV by arranging the
dopant ions into a super-lattice.Comment: Submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett. on 8/3/2010 (in review
Charge ordering in doped manganese oxides: lattice dynamics and magnetic structure
Based on the Hamiltonian of small polarons with the strong nearest neighbor
repulsion, we have investigated the charge ordering phenomena observed in
half-doped manganites R_{1/2}A_{1/2}MnO_3. We have explored possible
consequences of the charge ordering phase in the half-doped manganites. First,
we have studied the renormalization of the sound velocity around ,
considering the acoustic phonons coupled to the electrons participating in the
charge ordering. Second, we have found a new antiferromagnetic phase induced by
the charge ordering, and discussed its role in connection with the specific
CE-type antiferromagnetic structure observed in half-doped manganites.Comment: 5 pages, 2 Postscript figures. To appear in Phys. Rev. B - Rapid
