Division subspaces and integrable kernels

In this note we prove that the reproducing kernel of a Hilbert space satisfying the division property has integrable form, is locally of trace class, and the Hilbert space itself is a Hilbert space of holomorphic functions.Comment: 11 page

Theory of helicity-sensitive terahertz radiation detection by field effect transistors

Within the two antenna model, we develop a theory of the recently observed helicity-sensitive detection of terahertz radiation by FETs. The effect arises because of the mixing of the ac signals produced in the channel by the two antennas. We calculate the helicity-dependent part of the photoresponse and its dependence on the antenna impedance, gate length, and gate voltage.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

High-frequency oscillations in low-dimensional conductors and semiconductor superlattices induced by current in stack direction

A narrow energy band of the electronic spectrum in some direction in low-dimensional crystals may lead to a negative differential conductance and N-shaped I-V curve that results in an instability of the uniform stationary state. A well-known stable solution for such a system is a state with electric field domain. We have found a uniform stable solution in the region of negative differential conductance. This solution describes uniform high-frequency voltage oscillations. Frequency of the oscillation is determined by antenna properties of the system. The results are applicable also to semiconductor superlattices.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figure

Happiness and Financial Satisfaction in Israel. Effects of Religiosity, Ethnicity, and War

We analyze individual satisfaction with life as a whole and satisfaction with the personal financial situation for Israeli citizens of Jewish and Arab descent. Our data set is the Israeli Social Survey (2006). We are especially interested in the impact of the religions Judaism, Islam and Christianity, where we are able to differentiate between individuals who vary in religiosity between secular and ultra–orthodox. We find a significant effect of religiosity on happiness. With respect to Jewish families it is most striking that the impact of family size on both life and financial satisfaction seems to vary with religiosity. This might be a reason for differentiation in family equivalence scales. For Arab families we did not find this effect. First-generation immigrants are less happy than second-generation immigrants, while there is no significant difference between second-generation families and native families. The effect of the Lebanon War is much less than expected.happiness, subjective well-being, financial satisfaction, Israel, religion, immigration, terrorism
