Wess-Zumino Model on Bosonic-Fermionic Noncommutative Superspace
In our previous paper we construct a renormalizable Wess-Zumino action on
BFNC superspace at the second order approximation of noncommutative parameters.
The action contains about 200 terms which are necessary for renormalization. By
removing chiral covariant derivatives and chiral coordinates we found that the
BFNC Wess-Zumino action can be transformed to a simpler form which have
manifest 1/2 supersymmetry. Based on this discovery, we can extend the BFNC
Wess-Zumino action to the all order of noncommutative parameters. At first we
introduce global symmetries, then obtain divergent operators in the effective
action by using dimensional analysis, the next step is to construct all
possible BFNC parameters, at the end we combine the BFNC parameters with the
divergent operators. We present the explicit action up to the fourth order of
noncommutative parameters. Because the action contain all possible divergent
operators, it is renormalizable to all order in perturbative theory.Comment: 29 page
Covariant Quantization of BFNC Super Yang-Mills Theories and Supergauge Invariance
To construct renormalizable gauge model in Bosonic-Fermionic noncommutative
(BFNC) superspace, we replace the ordinary products of super Yang-Mills model
by BFNC star products. To study the renormalization property of the deformed
action, we obtain the one-loop 1PI effective action by using background field
method at the first order of BFNC parameters. We also verify the BFNC
supergauge invariance of the effective action. Because there are new terms in
effective action, the deformed action is not renormalizable. This imply that
additional terms should be added to the deformed action.Comment: 15 page
An efficient threshold dynamics method for wetting on rough surfaces
The threshold dynamics method developed by Merriman, Bence and Osher (MBO) is
an efficient method for simulating the motion by mean curvature flow when the
interface is away from the solid boundary. Direct generalization of MBO-type
methods to the wetting problem with interfaces intersecting the solid boundary
is not easy because solving the heat equation in a general domain with a
wetting boundary condition is not as efficient as it is with the original MBO
method. The dynamics of the contact point also follows a different law compared
with the dynamics of the interface away from the boundary. In this paper, we
develop an efficient volume preserving threshold dynamics method for simulating
wetting on rough surfaces. This method is based on minimization of the weighted
surface area functional over an extended domain that includes the solid phase.
The method is simple, stable with complexity per time step and is
not sensitive to the inhomogeneity or roughness of the solid boundary
All-Loop Renormalizable Wess-Zumino Model on Bosonic-Fermionic Noncommutative Superspace
We generalize the ordinary Wess-Zumino model to the Bosonic-Fermionic
noncommutative (BFNC) superspace and study its renormalization. In our previous
work that can be regarded as the key foundation of the present paper, we have
proved that the BFNC Wess-Zumino model with the real mass and interacting
constant is one-loop renormalizable up to the second order of BFNC parameters.
Based on the result obtained, in the present paper we modify the one-loop
renormalizable BFNC Wess-Zumino model by generalizing the mass and interacting
constant to complex numbers, introduce the U(1)_{R} R-symmetry and U(1)_{\Phi}
flavor symmetry in the modified model, analyze possible divergent operators in
the effective action of the modified model by using the dimensional analysis
method, and further give a new BFNC Wess-Zumino model that is renormalizable at
all loops still up to the second order of BFNC parameters by imposing
symmetries rather than doing a direct perturbative investigation.Comment: 28 pages. The conventions, definitions and the main results in

Optimal Quantum Thermometry by Dephasing
Decoherence often happens in the quantum world. We try to utilize quantum
dephasing to build an optimal thermometry. By calculating the
Cramr-Rao bound, we prove that the Ramsey measurement is the optimal
way to measure the temperature for uncorrelated particles. Using the optimal
measurement, the metrological equivalence of product and maximally entangled
states of initial quantum probes that always holds. However, using Ramsey
measurement, the metrological equivalence only holds in special situation.
Contrary to frequency estimation, the quantum limit can be surpassed under the
case . For the general Zeno regime(), uncorrelated product states
are the optimal choose in typical Ramsey spectroscopy set-up. In order to
surpass the standard scaling, we propose to change the interaction strength
with time. Finally, we investigate other environmental influences on the
measurement precision of temperature. Base on it, we define a new way to
measure non-Markovian effect.Comment: 8page
Information Rate Decomposition for Feedback Systems with Output Disturbance
This technical note considers the problem of resource allocation in linear
feedback control system with output disturbance. By decomposing the information
rate in the feedback communication channel, the channel resource allocation is
thoroughly analyzed. The results show that certain amount of resource is used
to transmit the output disturbance and this resource allocation is independent
from feedback controller design.Comment: 5 pages, technical not
One-Loop Renormalizable Wess-Zumino Model on Bosonic-Fermionic Noncommutative Superspace
We construct a deformed Wess-Zumino model on the noncommutative superspace
where the Bosonic and Fermionic coordinates are no longer commutative with each
other. Using the background field method, we calculate the primary one-loop
effective action based on the deformed action. By comparing the two actions, we
find that the deformed Wess-Zumino model is not renormalizable. To obtain a
renormalizable model, we combine the primary one-loop effective action with the
deformed action, and then calculate the secondary one-loop effective action
based on the combined action. After repeating this process to the third time,
we finally give the one-loop renormalizable action up to the second order of
Bosonic-Fermionic noncommutative parameters by using our specific techniques of
calculation.Comment: 48 pages, no figures; v2: 53 pages, clarifications and references

Testing the tensor-vector-scalar Theory with the latest cosmological observations
The tensor-vector-scalar (TeVeS) model is considered a viable theory of
gravity. It produces the Milgrom's modified Newtonian dynamics in the
nonrelativistic weak field limit and is free from ghosts. This model has been
tested against various cosmological observations. Here we investigate whether
new observations such as the galaxy velocity power spectrum measured by 6dF and
the kinetic Sunyaev Zel'dovich effect power spectrum measured by ACT/SPT can
put further constraints on the TeVeS model. Furthermore, we perform the test of
TeVeS cosmology with a sterile neutrino by confronting to Planck data, and find
that it is ruled out by cosmic microwave background measurements from the
Planck mission.Comment: 23 pages, 6 figure
Quantum estimation of detection efficiency with no-knowledge quantum feedback
We investigate that no-knowledge measurement-based feedback control is
utilized to obtain the estimation precision of the detection efficiency. For
the feedback operators that concern us, no-knowledge measurement is the optimal
way to estimate the detection efficiency. We show that the higher precision can
be achieved for the lower or larger detection efficiency. It is found that
no-knowledge feedback can be used to cancel decoherence. No-knowledge feedback
with a high detection efficiency can perform well in estimating frequency and
detection efficiency parameters simultaneously. And simultaneous estimation is
better than independent estimation given by the same probes.Comment: 7pages, 3figure
Arbitrary function resonance tuner of the optical microcavity with sub-MHz resolution
The resonance frequency of an optical whispering gallery mode (WGM)
microcavity is extremely important in its various applications. Many efforts
have been made to fine tune this parameter. Here, we report the design and
implementation of a function resonance tuner of an optical microcavity with
resolution about 650 kHz (7 pm @ 1450 nm band), 20% of the optical WGM
linewidth. A piezoelectric nano-positioner is used to mechanically compress the
microsphere in its axial direction. The ultrafine frequency tuning is achieved
benefitting from the much less changes in the axial direction than equatorial
semiaxes of the microsphere and the sub-nanometer resolution of the
nano-positioner. The tuning of the resonance can be made to an arbitrary
function, dynamically, with near perfect accuracy. We have demonstrated the
periodically tuning of resonance in the sine and sigmoid function respectively,
both with over 99% fitting accuracy. This work expands the application of
microresonators greatly, especially microspheres with ultrahigh quality factor,
in multi-mode coupling system or time-floquet system
