Remote multispectral imaging with PRISMS and XRF analysis of Tang Tomb paintings

PRISMS (Portable Remote Imaging System for Multispectral Scanning) is a multispectral/hyperspectral imaging system designed for flexible in situ imaging of wall paintings at high resolution (tens of microns) over a large range of distances (less than a meter to over ten meters). This paper demonstrates a trial run of the VIS/NIR (400-880nm) component of the instrument for non-invasive imaging of wall paintings in situ. Wall painting panels from excavated Tang dynasty (618-907AD) tombs near Xi’an were examined by PRISMS. Pigment identifications were carried out using the spectral reflectance obtained from multispectral imaging coupled with non-invasive elemental analysis using a portable XRF

Xtoys: cellular automata on xwindows

Xtoys is a collection of xwindow programs for demonstrating simulations of various statistical models. Included are xising, for the two dimensional Ising model, xpotts, for the $q$-state Potts model, xautomalab, for a fairly general class of totalistic cellular automata, xsand, for the Bak-Tang-Wiesenfield model of self organized criticality, and xfires, a simple forest fire simulation. The programs should compile on any machine supporting xwindows.Comment: 4 pages, one figure, uuencoded compressed postscript Contribution to Lattice '95 Also available at http://penguin.phy.bnl.gov/www/papers/BNL-62123.ps.Z Programs available at http://penguin.phy.bnl.gov/www/xtoys/xtoys.htm

Euclidean and Hermitian LCD MDS codes

Linear codes with complementary duals (abbreviated LCD) are linear codes whose intersection with their dual is trivial. When they are binary, they play an important role in armoring implementations against side-channel attacks and fault injection attacks. Non-binary LCD codes in characteristic 2 can be transformed into binary LCD codes by expansion. On the other hand, being optimal codes, maximum distance separable codes (abbreviated MDS) have been of much interest from many researchers due to their theoretical significant and practical implications. However, little work has been done on LCD MDS codes. In particular, determining the existence of $q$-ary $[n,k]$ LCD MDS codes for various lengths $n$ and dimensions $k$ is a basic and interesting problem. In this paper, we firstly study the problem of the existence of $q$-ary $[n,k]$ LCD MDS codes and completely solve it for the Euclidean case. More specifically, we show that for $q>3$ there exists a $q$-ary $[n,k]$ Euclidean LCD MDS code, where $0\le k \le n\le q+1$, or, $q=2^{m}$, $n=q+2$ and $k= 3 \text{or} q-1$. Secondly, we investigate several constructions of new Euclidean and Hermitian LCD MDS codes. Our main techniques in constructing Euclidean and Hermitian LCD MDS codes use some linear codes with small dimension or codimension, self-orthogonal codes and generalized Reed-Solomon codes

Extension of a theorem of Duffin and Schaeffer

Let $r_1,\ldots,r_s:\mathbb{Z}_{n\geqslant 0}\to\mathbb{C}$ be linearly recurrent sequences whose associated eigenvalues have arguments in $\pi\mathbb{Q}$ and let $F(z):=\sum_{n\geqslant 0}f(n)z^n$, where $f(n)\in\{r_1(n),\ldots,$ $r_s(n)\}$ for each $n\geqslant 0$. We prove that if $F(z)$ is bounded in a sector of its disk of convergence, it is a rational function. This extends a very recent result of Tang and Wang, who gave the analogous result when the sequence $f(n)$ takes on values of finitely many polynomials.Comment: 2 page
