Conductance plateau in quantum spin transport through an interacting quantum dot

Quantum spin transport is studied in an interacting quantum dot. It is found that a conductance "plateau" emerges in the non-linear charge conductance by a spin bias in the Kondo regime. The conductance plateau, as a complementary to the Kondo peak, originates from the strong electron correlation and exchange processes in the quantum dot, and can be regarded as one of the characteristics in quantum spin transport.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figure

3D Compressed Spectrum Mapping with Sampling Locations Optimization in Spectrum-Heterogeneous Environment

Spectrum mapping has emerged as an important problem in wireless communications, which generates a spectrum map for the spectrum resource analysis and management. Given the constrained transceiver volume and the limited energy consumption, how to effectively reconstruct the spectrum situation by the limited sampling data is a pressing challenge for spectrum mapping. In this paper, by exploiting the sparse nature of spectrum situation, we firstly attempt to solve the three-dimensional (3D) compressed spectrum mapping problem in the way of compressed sensing. Then, we develop a quadrature and right-triangular (QR) pivoting based measurement matrix optimization algorithm. By iteratively selecting new dominant sampling locations, it promotes the recovery accuracy compared to random measurement. After that, we propose a 3D spatial subspace based orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm to recover spectrum situation for 3D compressed spectrum mapping. Finally, simulations are presented to show the comparisons in terms of localization, source signal strength recovery, recovery success rate and situation recovery. Results show our proposed 3D spectrum mapping scheme not only effectively reduces the sampling number, but also achieves a high level of spectrum mapping accuracy

Global axisymmetric stability analysis for a composite system of two gravitationally coupled scale-free discs

In a composite system of gravitationally coupled stellar and gaseous discs, we perform linear stability analysis for axisymmetric coplanar perturbations using the two-fluid formalism. The background stellar and gaseous discs are taken to be scale-free with all physical variables varying as powers of cylindrical radius $r$ with compatible exponents. The unstable modes set in as neutral modes or stationary perturbation configurations with angular frequency $\omega=0$.Comment: 7 pages using AAS styl

Unified theory of phase separation and charge ordering in doped manganite perovskites

A unified theory is developed to explain various types of electronic collective behaviors in doped manganites R$_{1-x}$X$_x$MnO$_3$ (R = La, Pr,Nd etc. and X = Ca, Sr, Ba etc.). Starting from a realistic electronic model, we derive an effective Hamiltonianis by ultilizing the projection perturbation techniques and develop a spin-charge-orbital coherent state theory, in which the Jahn-Teller effect and the orbital degeneracy of e$_g$ electrons in Mn ions are taken into account. Physically, the experimentally observed charge ordering state and electronic phase separation are two macroscopic quantum phenomena with opposite physical mechanisms, and their physical origins are elucidated in this theory. Interplay of the Jahn-Teller effect, the lattice distortion as well as the double exchange mechanism leads to different magnetic structures and to different charge ordering patterns and phase separation.Comment: 10 ReVTEX pages with 4 figures attache
