Bell inequalities for three particles
We present tight Bell inequalities expressed by probabilities for three four-
and five-dimensional systems. The tight structure of Bell inequalities for
three -dimensional systems (qudits) is proposed. Some interesting Bell
inequalities of three qubits reduced from those of three qudits are also
studied.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figures. Accepted for publication in Phys. Rev.
Asymptotic tails of massive scalar fields in a stationary axisymmetric EMDA black hole geometry
The late-time tail behavior of massive scalar fields is studied analytically
in a stationary axisymmetric EMDA black hole geometry. It is shown that the
asymptotic behavior of massive perturbations is dominated by the oscillatory
inverse power-law decaying tail at the intermediate
late times, and by the asymptotic tail at asymptotically
late times. Our result seems to suggest that the intermediate tails and the asymptotically tails
may be quite general features for evolution of massive scalar fields in any
four dimensional asymptotically flat rotating black hole backgrounds.Comment: 6 page
Hidden nonlinear supersymmetries in pure parabosonic systems
The existence of intimate relation between generalized statistics and
supersymmetry is established by observation of hidden supersymmetric structure
in pure parabosonic systems. This structure is characterized generally by a
nonlinear superalgebra. The nonlinear supersymmetry of parabosonic systems may
be realized, in turn, by modifying appropriately the usual supersymmetric
quantum mechanics. The relation of nonlinear parabosonic supersymmetry to the
Calogero-like models with exchange interaction and to the spin chain models
with inverse-square interaction is pointed out.Comment: 20 pages, one reference corrected, to appear in Int. J. Mod. Phys.
Photometric properties and luminosity function of nearby massive early-type galaxies
We perform photometric analyses for a bright early-type galaxy (ETG) sample
with 2949 galaxies ( mag) in the redshift range of 0.05 to
0.15, drawn from the SDSS DR7 with morphological classification from Galaxy Zoo
1. We measure the Petrosian and isophotal magnitudes, as well as the
corresponding half-light radius for each galaxy. We find that for brightest
galaxies ( mag), our Petrosian magnitudes, and isophotal
magnitudes to 25 and 1\% of the sky brightness are on
average 0.16 mag, 0.20 mag, and 0.26 mag brighter than the SDSS Petrosian
values, respectively. In the first case the underestimations are caused by
overestimations in the sky background by the SDSS PHOTO algorithm, while the
latter two are also due to deeper photometry. Similarly, the typical half-light
radii () measured by the SDSS algorithm are smaller than our
measurements. As a result, the bright-end of the -band luminosity function
is found to decline more slowly than previous works. Our measured luminosity
densities at the bright end are more than one order of magnitude higher than
those of Blanton et al. (2003), and the stellar mass densities at and are a few tenths
and a factor of few higher than those of Bernardi et al. (2010). These results
may significantly alleviate the tension in the assembly of massive galaxies
between observations and predictions of the hierarchical structure formation
model.Comment: 43 pages, 14 figures, version accepted for publication in the

Continuous-Variable Quantum State Transfer with Partially Disembodied Transport
We propose a new protocol of implementing continuous-variable quantum state
transfer using partially disembodied transport. This protocol may improve the
fidelity at the expense of the introduction of a semi-quantum channel between
the parties, in comparison with quantum teleportation using the same strength
of entanglement. Depending on the amount of information destroyed in the
measurement, this protocol may be regarded as a teleportation protocol
(complete destruction of input state), or as a cloning protocol
(partial destruction), or as a direct transmission (no destruction). This
scheme can be straightforwardly implemented with the experimentally accessible
setup at present.Comment: 4 pages, to appear in Phys. Rev. Let
Dirac Quasinormal modes of Schwarzschild black hole
The quasinormal modes (QNMs) associated with the decay of Dirac field
perturbation around a Schwarzschild black hole is investigated by using
continued fraction and Hill-determinant approaches. It is shown that the
fundamental quasinormal frequencies become evenly spaced for large angular
quantum number and the spacing is given by . The angular quantum number has the
surprising effect of increasing real part of the quasinormal frequencies, but
it almost does not affect imaginary part, especially for low overtones. In
addition, the quasinormal frequencies also become evenly spaced for large
overtone number and the spacing for imaginary part is
which is same as that of the
scalar, electromagnetic, and gravitational perturbations.Comment: 14 pages, 5 figure
