On the Application of Gluon to Heavy Quarkonium Fragmentation Functions
We analyze the uncertainties induced by different definitions of the momentum
fraction in the application of gluon to heavy quarkonium fragmentation
function. We numerically calculate the initial fragmentation
functions by using the non-covariant definitions of with finite gluon
momentum and find that these fragmentation functions have strong dependence on
the gluon momentum . As , these fragmentation
functions approach to the fragmentation function in the light-cone definition.
Our numerical results show that large uncertainties remains while the
non-covariant definitions of are employed in the application of the
fragmentation functions. We present for the first time the polarized gluon to
fragmentation functions, which are fitted by the scheme exploited in
this work.Comment: 11 pages, 7 figures;added reference for sec.
Critical behaviours of contact near phase transitions
A central quantity of importance for ultracold atoms is contact, which
measures two-body correlations at short distances in dilute systems. It appears
in universal relations among thermodynamic quantities, such as large momentum
tails, energy, and dynamic structure factors, through the renowned Tan
relations. However, a conceptual question remains open as to whether or not
contact can signify phase transitions that are insensitive to short-range
physics. Here we show that, near a continuous classical or quantum phase
transition, contact exhibits a variety of critical behaviors, including scaling
laws and critical exponents that are uniquely determined by the universality
class of the phase transition and a constant contact per particle. We also use
a prototypical exactly solvable model to demonstrate these critical behaviors
in one-dimensional strongly interacting fermions. Our work establishes an
intrinsic connection between the universality of dilute many-body systems and
universal critical phenomena near a phase transition.Comment: Final version published in Nat. Commun. 5:5140 doi:

Research on UBI auto insurance pricing model based on parameter adaptive SAPSO optimal fuzzy controller
Aiming at the problem of “dynamic” accurate determination of rates in UBI auto insurance pricing, this paper proposes a UBI auto insurance pricing model based on fuzzy controller and optimizes it with a parameter adaptive SASPO. On the basis of the SASPO algorithm, the movement direction of the particles can be mutated and the direction can be dynamically controlled, the inertia weight value is given by the distance between the particle and the global optimal particle, and the learning factor is calculated according to the change of the fitness value, which realizes the parameter in the running process. Effective self-adjustment. A five-dimensional fuzzy controller is constructed by selecting the monthly driving mileage, the number of violations, and the driving time at night in the UBI auto insurance data. The weights are used to form fuzzy rules, and a variety of algorithms are used to optimize the membership function and fuzzy rules and compare them. The research results show that, compared with other algorithms, the parameter adaptive SAPAO algorithm can calculate more reasonable, accurate and high-quality fuzzy rules and membership functions when processing UBI auto insurance data. The accuracy and robustness of UBI auto insurance rate determination can realize dynamic and accurate determination of UBI auto insurance rates
Quantum simulation of artificial Abelian gauge field using nitrogen-vacancy center ensembles coupled to superconducting resonators
We propose a potentially practical scheme to simulate artificial Abelian
gauge field for polaritons using a hybrid quantum system consisting of
nitrogen-vacancy center ensembles (NVEs) and superconducting transmission line
resonators (TLR). In our case, the collective excitations of NVEs play the role
of bosonic particles, and our multiport device tends to circulate polaritons in
a behavior like a charged particle in an external magnetic field. We discuss
the possibility of identifying signatures of the Hofstadter "butterfly" in the
optical spectra of the resonators, and analyze the ground state crossover for
different gauge fields. Our work opens new perspectives in quantum simulation
of condensed matter and many-body physics using hybrid spin-ensemble circuit
quantum electrodynamics system. The experimental feasibility and challenge are
justified using currently available technology.Comment: 6 papes+supplementary materia

Minimizing the Average Delay at Intersections via Presignals and Speed Control
© 2018 Mina Ghanbarikarekani et al. Urban intersections have been well recognized as bottlenecks of urban transport systems. It is thus important to propose and implement strategies for increasing the efficiency of public and private transportation systems as a whole. In order to achieve this goal, an additional signal could be set up near the intersection to give priority to buses through stopping vehicles in advance of the main intersection as a presignal. It has been increasingly popular in urban cities. While presignals indeed reduce the average delay per traveler, they cause extra stops of private vehicles, which might compromise the overall efficiency, safety, and sustainability. This paper aims to propose a model to improve presignals by reducing the vehicles' number of stops behind the presignals. By applying the method, vehicles would be able to adjust their speed based on traffic conditions as well as buses' speed and approach. Numerical analyses have been conducted to determine the conditions required for implementing this method
