Maximally Flexible Assignment of Orthogonal Variable Spreading Factor Codes for Multi-Rate Traffic

In universal terrestrial radio access (UTRA) systems, orthogonal variable spreading factor (OVSF) codes are used to support different transmission rates for different users. In this paper, we first define the flexibility index to measure the capability of an assignable code set in supporting multirate traffic classes. Based on this index, two single-code assignment schemes, nonrearrangeable and rearrangeable compact assignments, are proposed. Both schemes can offer maximal flexibility for the resulting code tree after each code assignment. We then present an analytical model and derive the call blocking probability, system throughput and fairness index. Analytical and simulation results show that the proposed schemes are efficient, stable and fair

On deformed double current algebras for simple Lie algebras

We prove the equivalence of two presentations of deformed double current algebras associated to a complex simple Lie algebra, the first one obtained via a degeneration of affine Yangians while the other one naturally appeared in the construction of the elliptic Casimir connection. We also construct a specific central element of these algebras and, in type A, show that they contain a very large center for certain values of their parameters.Comment: 40 page

A Remark on Soliton Equation of Mean Curvature Flow

In this short note, we consider self-similar immersions $F: \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^{n+k}$ of the Graphic Mean Curvature Flow of higher co-dimension. We show that the following is true: Let $F(x) = (x,f(x)), x \in \mathbb{R}^{n}$ be a graph solution to the soliton equation $$\bar{H}(x) + F^{\bot}(x) = 0.$$ Assume $\sup_{\mathbb{R}^{n}}|Df(x)| \le C_{0} < + \infty$. Then there exists a unique smooth function $f_{\infty}: \mathbb{R}^{n}\to \mathbb{R}^k$ such that $$f_{\infty}(x) = \lim_{\lambda \to \infty}f_{\lambda}(x)$$ and $$f_{\infty}(r x)=r f_{\infty}(x)$$ for any real number $r\not= 0$, where $$f_{\lambda}(x) = \lambda^{-1}f(\lambda x).$$Comment: 6 page
