The system under study is not only corrupted by state-dependent white noises but also disturbed by exogenous inputs. The measurement output contains randomly missing data that is modeled by a Bernoulli distributed white sequence with a known conditional probability. A filter of very general form is first designed such that the filtering process is stochastically stable and the filtering error satisfies H infin performance constraint for all admissible missing observations and nonzero exogenous disturbances under the zero-initial condition. The existence conditions of the desired filter are described in terms of a second-order nonlinear inequality. Such an inequality can be decoupled into some auxiliary ones that can be solved independently by taking special form of the Lyapunov functionals. As a consequence, a linear time-invariant filter design problem is discussed for the benefit of practical applications, and some simplified conditions are obtained. Finally, two numerical simulation examples are given to illustrate the main results of this paper

Quantized H-Infinity control for nonlinear stochastic time-delay systems with missing measurements
This is the post-print version of the Article. The official published version can be accessed from the link below - Copyright @ 2012 IEEEIn this paper, the quantized H∞ control problem is investigated for a class of nonlinear stochastic time-delay network-based systems with probabilistic data missing. A nonlinear stochastic system with state delays is employed to model the networked control systems where the measured output and the input signals are quantized by two logarithmic quantizers, respectively. Moreover, the data missing phenomena are modeled by introducing a diagonal matrix composed of Bernoulli distributed stochastic variables taking values of 1 and 0, which describes that the data from different sensors may be lost with different missing probabilities. Subsequently, a sufficient condition is first derived in virtue of the method of sector-bounded uncertainties, which guarantees that the closed-loop system is stochastically stable and the controlled output satisfies H∞ performance constraint for all nonzero exogenous disturbances under the zero-initial condition. Then, the sufficient condition is decoupled into some inequalities for the convenience of practical verification. Based on that, quantized H∞ controllers are designed successfully for some special classes of nonlinear stochastic time-delay systems by using Matlab linear matrix inequality toolbox. Finally, a numerical simulation example is exploited to show the effectiveness and applicability of the results derived.This work was supported in part by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) of the U.K. under Grant GR/S27658/01, the Leverhulme Trust of the U.K., the Royal Society of the U.K., the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants 61028008, 61134009, 61104125, 60974030, and 61074016, and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany
Leading Effect of CP Violation with Four Generations
In the Standard Model with a fourth generation of quarks, we study the
relation between the Jarlskog invariants and the triangle areas in the 4-by-4
CKM matrix. To identify the leading effects that may probe the CP violation in
processes involving quarks, we invoke small mass and small angle expansions,
and show that these leading effects are enhanced considerably compared to the
three generation case by the large masses of fourth generation quarks. We
discuss the leading effect in several cases, in particular the possibility of
large CP violation in processes, which echoes the heightened recent
interest because of experimental hints.Comment: 12 pages, no figur
Coherent sheaves, superconnections, and RRG
Given a compact complex manifold, the purpose of this paper is to construct
the Chern character for coherent sheaves with values in Bott-Chern cohomology,
and to prove a corresponding Riemann-Roch-Grothendieck formula. Our paper is
based on a fundamental construction of Block.Comment: 161 pages, 1 figure. In version 2, references to earlier work have

H∞ filtering for nonlinear discrete-time stochastic systems with randomly varying sensor delays
This is the post print version of the article. The official published version can be obained from the link - Copyright 2009 Elsevier LtdThis paper is concerned with the H∞ filtering problem for a general class of nonlinear discrete-time stochastic systems with randomly varying sensor delays, where the delayed sensor measurement is governed by a stochastic variable satisfying the Bernoulli random binary distribution law. In terms of the Hamilton–Jacobi–Isaacs inequalities, preliminary results are first obtained that ensure the addressed system to possess an l2-gain less than a given positive scalar γ. Next, a sufficient condition is established under which the filtering process is asymptotically stable in the mean square and the filtering error satisfies the H∞ performance constraint for all nonzero exogenous disturbances under the zero-initial condition. Such a sufficient condition is then decoupled into four inequalities for the purpose of easy implementation. Furthermore, it is shown that our main results can be readily specialized to the case of linear stochastic systems. Finally, a numerical simulation example is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the results derived.This paper was not presented at any IFAC meeting.

Photoluminescence pressure coefficients of InAs/GaAs quantum dots
We have investigated the band-gap pressure coefficients of self-assembled
InAs/GaAs quantum dots by calculating 17 systems with different quantum dot
shape, size, and alloying profile using atomistic empirical pseudopotential
method within the ``strained linear combination of bulk bands'' approach. Our
results confirm the experimentally observed significant reductions of the band
gap pressure coefficients from the bulk values. We show that the nonlinear
pressure coefficients of the bulk InAs and GaAs are responsible for these
reductions. We also find a rough universal pressure coefficient versus band gap
relationship which agrees quantitatively with the experimental results. We find
linear relationships between the percentage of electron wavefunction on the
GaAs and the quantum dot band gaps and pressure coefficients. These linear
relationships can be used to get the information of the electron wavefunctions.Comment: 8 pages, 2 tables, 4 figure
