Black hole solutions in f(R) gravity coupled with non-linear Yang-Mills field
It is shown that in the static, spherically symmetric spacetime the problem
of metric f(R) gravity coupled with non-linear Yang-Mills (YM) field
constructed from the Wu-Yang ansatz as source, can be solved in all dimensions.
By non-linearity it is meant that the YM Lagrangian depends arbitrarily on its
invariant. A particular form is considered to be in the power-law form with
limit of the standard YM theory. The formalism admits black hole solutions with
single or double horizons in which f(R) can be obtained, in general
numerically. In 6-dimensional case we obtain an exact solution given by
f(R)=\surdR gravity that couples with the YM field in a consistent manner.Comment: 12 pages, 8 figures, revised version with major changes including

Solutions for f(R) gravity coupled with electromagnetic field
In the presence of external, linear / nonlinear electromagnetic fields we
integrate f(R) \sim R+2{\alpha}\surd(R+const.) gravity equations. In contrast
to their Einsteinian cousins the obtained black holes are non-asymptotically
flat with a deficit angle. In proper limits we obtain from our general solution
the global monopole solution in f(R) gravity. The scale symmetry breaking term
adopted as the nonlinear electromagnetic source adjusts the sign of the mass of
the resulting black hole to be physical.Comment: 7 pages no figure, final version for publication in European Physical

An Adaptive Energy Efficient Reliable Routing Protocol for Wireless Sensor Network
Wireless sensor networks are networks of tiny sensing devices for communicating in using wireless technology. Wireless sensor networks are deployed in scenarios where any plant information should be available for industrial control applications. Cross-layer interaction is most important factor to gain maximum efficiency and also able to provide difficult interaction among the layers of the protocol stack. Hence to achieve this is challenging issue because latency, energy and reliability are at odds, and also resource constrained does not support complex algorithm. Wireless sensor networks have many protocols. In this paper Breath protocol is proposed for industrial control application .To minimizing energy consumption in network breath is designed for WSNs by which nodes attached to plants must carry information via through multi hop routing to sink. To optimize energy efficiency the protocol is based on randomized routing, medium access control, and duty-cycling. Alternate model of breath protocol ensures a long lifetime of the network by making effective distribution of workload in sensor nodes. Hence it shows as a good terminology for efficient, timely data gathering for industrial control applications.

Quantum singularities in a model of f(R) Gravity
The formation of a naked singularity in a model of f(R) gravity having as
source a linear electromagnetic field is considered in view of quantum
mechanics. Quantum test fields obeying the Klein-Gordon, Dirac and Maxwell
equations are used to probe the classical timelike naked singularity developed
at r=0. We prove that the spatial derivative operator of the fields fails to be
essentially self-adjoint. As a result, the classical timelike naked singularity
remains quantum mechanically singular when it is probed with quantum fields
having different spin structures.Comment: 12 pages, final version. Accepted for publication in EPJ
Space Efficient Breadth-First and Level Traversals of Consistent Global States of Parallel Programs
Enumerating consistent global states of a computation is a fundamental
problem in parallel computing with applications to debug- ging, testing and
runtime verification of parallel programs. Breadth-first search (BFS)
enumeration is especially useful for these applications as it finds an
erroneous consistent global state with the least number of events possible. The
total number of executed events in a global state is called its rank. BFS also
allows enumeration of all global states of a given rank or within a range of
ranks. If a computation on n processes has m events per process on average,
then the traditional BFS (Cooper-Marzullo and its variants) requires
space in the worst case, whereas ou r
algorithm performs the BFS requires space. Thus, we
reduce the space complexity for BFS enumeration of consistent global states
exponentially. and give the first polynomial space algorithm for this task. In
our experimental evaluation of seven benchmarks, traditional BFS fails in many
cases by exhausting the 2 GB heap space allowed to the JVM. In contrast, our
implementation uses less than 60 MB memory and is also faster in many cases
Stochastic approach to inflation II: classicality, coarse-graining and noises
In this work we generalize a previously developed semiclassical approach to
inflation, devoted to the analysis of the effective dynamics of coarse-grained
fields, which are essential to the stochastic approach to inflation. We
consider general non-trivial momentum distributions when defining these fields.
The use of smooth cutoffs in momentum space avoids highly singular quantum
noise correlations and allows us to consider the whole quantum noise sector
when analyzing the conditions for the validity of an effective classical
dynamical description of the coarse-grained field. We show that the weighting
of modes has physical consequences, and thus cannot be considered as a mere
mathematical artifact. In particular we discuss the exponential inflationary
scenario and show that colored noises appear with cutoff dependent amplitudes.Comment: 18 pages, revtex, no figure
Long Term Survival in a Patient Following Resection for Carcinoma of the Gallbladder and Rectum
We describe a 66-year-old man who presented initially with acute cholecystitis. He was treated by
cholecystostomy and biopsy of the gallbladder mucosa which revealed carcinoma of the gallbladder.
Four weeks later a cholecystectomy was performed followed by resection of the common bile duct,
common hepatic duct and segments IV and V of the liver and a hepaticojejunostomy. Sixteen months
later an abdomino-perineal resection was performed for a moderately differentiated Dukes′ stage C
carcinoma of the rectum. He is alive and without evidence of recurrence seven years later. Few patients
survive for this length of time following resection of either carcinoma of the gallbladder or rectum. This
case report demonstrates the value of aggressive surgical treatment in patients with early carcinoma of
the gallbladder
From Instantons to Sphalerons: Time-Dependent Periodic Solutions of SU(2)-Higgs Theory
We solve numerically for periodic, spherically symmetric, classical solutions
of SU(2)-Higgs theory in four-dimensional Euclidean space. In the limit of
short periods the solutions approach tiny instanton-anti-instanton
superpositions while, for longer periods, the solutions merge with the static
sphaleron. A previously predicted bifurcation point, where two branches of
periodic solutions meet, appears for Higgs boson masses larger than .Comment: 14 pages, RevTeX with eps figure
