Strong pairing from small Fermi surface beyond weak coupling: Application to LaNiO
The studies of high-temperature superconductors raise a fundamental question:
Can a small Fermi surface phase, which violates the Luttinger theorem, exist
and give rise to superconductivity? Our work provides a positive answer through
a controlled theory based on a bilayer model with strong inter-layer spin-spin
coupling () but no inter-layer hopping (). Then small hole
doping of the rung-singlet insulator with two electrons per rung naturally
leads to small hole pockets with Fermi surface volume per flavor smaller than
the free fermion result by of the Brillouin zone(BZ). We construct a new
t-J model on a bilayer square lattice, so called ESD t-J model and employ a
generalized slave boson theory, which captures this small Fermi surface phase
at small hole doping . This metallic state is an intrinsically strongly
correlated Fermi liquid beyond weak coupling theory, violating the perturbative
Luttinger theorem but consistent with the Oshikawa's non-perturbative proof. We
further show that it transitions into an inter-layer paired -wave
superconductor at lower temperature through Feshbach resonance with a virtual
Cooper pair, with a surprising doping-induced crossover from
Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) to Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) at higher
hole doping levels. This leads to a superconducting dome centered around
, with the normal state changing from the conventional Fermi liquid in
the to the unusual small Fermi surface state in the side. Our
theoretical findings including phase diagrams are also confirmed by density
matrix renormalization group (DMRG) simulation in quasi one dimension. Applying
our theoretical framework, we provide a plausible scenario for the recently
found nickelate LaNiO materials.Comment: 11+13 pages, 8+13 figur
Deconfined criticalities and dualities between chiral spin liquid, topological superconductor and charge density wave Chern insulator
We propose bi-critical and tri-critical theories between chiral spin liquid
(CSL), topological superconductor (SC) and charge density wave (CDW) ordered
Chern insulator with Chern number on square, triangular and kagome
lattices. The three CDW order parameters form a manifold of or
depending on whether there is easy-plane anisotropy. The skyrmion defect of the
CDW order carries physical charge and its condensation leads to a
topological superconductor. The CDW-SC transitions are in the same universality
classes as the celebrated deconfined quantum critical points (DQCP) between
Neel order and valence bond solid order on square lattice. Both SC and CDW
order can be accessed from the CSL phase through a continuous phase transition.
At the CSL-SC transition, there is still CDW order fluctuations although CDW is
absent in both sides. We propose three different theories for the CSL-SC
transition (and CSL to easy-plane CDW transition): a theory with two
bosons, a theory with two Dirac fermions, and an theory with two
bosons. Our construction offers a derivation of the duality between these three
theories as well as a promising physical realization. The theory offers
a unified framework for a series of fixed points with explicit or
symmetry. There is also a transparent duality transformation
mapping SC order to easy-plane CDW order. The CSL-SC-CDW tri-critical points
are invariant under this duality mapping and have an enlarged or
symmetry. The DQCPs between CDW and SC inherit the enlarged symmetry, emergent
anomaly, and self-duality from the tri-critical point. Our analysis unifies the
well-studied DQCP between symmetry breaking phases into a larger framework
where they are proximate to a topologically ordered phase.Comment: 30+7 pages, 9 figures, 11 table
A Study Of Online Beauty Community Members\u27 Voices: EWOM Text Mining
The Internet promotes the development of the social media, these new media offer open platforms for participants to share product/service reviews with each other. This study applied the theory of conformity behavior to explain online community members’ information consumption behaviors by using text-mining techniques. NetBeans7.4 was used to conduct Chinese tokenization and data analysis. Next, factor analysis and correlation analysis were conducted to reduce the attribute size of products. Our findings demonstrate that more attributes a product/brand has more discussions found in an online community. The conformity phenomenon is seen in help to accumulate sufficient and complete eWOM to reach a sufficient quantity. Thus, brand is more likely to be mentioned. However, the few brand vendors with high product strength have the impact of conformity, in which, may result in a lower spread power with wrong marketing strategy. Therefore, we argue that the reputation bias generated by conformity will make a misleading purchase decision. Based on the conformity effect of eWOM, we establish the effectiveness of text mining technology applied to information search platform design and brand marketing strategy. Implications were proposed in the final section
Badanie zależności między metylacją regionu promotora genu MMP-9 a nefropatią cukrzycową
Objective: This study aims to explore the relationship between the methylation of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 gene promoter region and diabetic nephropathy (DN) through the detection of the methylation level of MMP-9 gene promoter region in the peripheral blood of patients with DN in different periods and serum MMP-9 concentration. Methods: The methylation level of the MMP-9 gene promoter region was detected by methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP), and the content of MMP-9 in serum was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results: Results of the statistical analysis revealed that serum MMP-9 protein expression levels gradually increased in patients in the simple diabetic group, early diabetic nephropathy group and clinical diabetic nephropathy group, compared with the control group; and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Compared with the control group, the methylation levels of MMP-9 gene promoter regions gradually decreased in patients in the simple diabetic group, early diabetic nephropathy group, and clinical diabetic nephropathy group; and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Furthermore, correlation analysis results indicated that the demethylation levels of the MMP-9 gene promoter region was positively correlated with serum protein levels, urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR), urea and creatinine; and was negatively correlated with GFR. Conclusion: The demethylation of the MMP-9 gene promoter region may be involved in the occurrence and development of diabetic nephropathy by regulating the expression of MMP-9 protein in serum.Wstęp: Celem pracy jest zbadanie zależności między metylacją regionu promotora genu metaloproteinazy macierzy zewnątrzkomórkowej typu 9 a nefropatią cukrzycową, poprzez wykrycie poziomu metylacji regionu promotora genu MMP-9 we krwi obwodowej pacjentów z nefropatią cukrzycową w różnych okresach i przy różnym stężeniu MMP-9 w surowicy krwi.
Materiał i metody: Poziom metylacji regionu promotora genu MMP-9 wykrywano za pomocą metylospecyficznej reakcji łańcuchowej polimerazy (methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction; MSP), natomiast zawartość MMP-9 w surowicy krwi była określana przy użyciu enzymatycznego testu immunoadsorpcyjnego (ELISA).
Wyniki: Wyniki analizy statystycznej wykazały, że poziom ekspresji białka MMP-9 w surowicy krwi stopniowo wzrastał w grupie pacjentów ze zwykłą cukrzycą, w grupie pacjentów z wczesną nefropatią cukrzycową oraz w grupie z kliniczną nefropatią cukrzycową w porównaniu z grupą kontrolną; różnica była statystycznie istotna (p < 0,05). W porównaniu z grupą kontrolną poziom metylacji regionów promotora genu MMP-9 stopniowo się zmniejszał w grupie pacjentów ze zwykłą cukrzycą, w grupie pacjentów z wczesną nefropatią cukrzycową oraz w grupie z kliniczną nefropatią cukrzycową; różnica była istotna statystycznie (p < 0,05). Ponadto, wyniki analizy korelacji wykazały, że poziomy demetylacji regionu promotora genu MMP-9 były dodatnio skorelowane ze stężeniem białek w surowicy krwi, ze wskaźnikiem albumina/kreatynina (urinary albumin to creatinine ratio; UACR), mocznikiem i kreatyniną oraz były ujemnie skorelowane ze wskaźnikiem GFR.
Wnioski: Demetylacja regionu promotora genu MMP-9 może być zaangażowana w występowanie i rozwój nefropatii cukrzycowej poprzez regulację ekspresji białka MMP-9 w surowicy krwi.
Phase transitions out of quantum Hall states in moir\'e TMD bilayers
Motivated by the recent experimental breakthroughs in observing Fractional
Quantum Anomalous Hall (FQAH) states in moir\'e Transition Metal Dichalcogenide
(TMD) bilayers, we propose and study various unconventional phase transitions
between quantum Hall phases and Fermi liquids or charge ordered phases upon
tuning the bandwidth. At filling , we describe a direct
transition between the FQAH state and a Charge Density Wave (CDW) insulator.
The critical theory resembles that of the familiar deconfined quantum critical
point(DQCP) but with an additional Chern-Simons term. At filling
, we study the possibility of a continuous transition between
the composite Fermi liquid (CFL) and the Fermi liquid (FL) building on and
refining previous work by Barkeshli and McGreevy. Crucially we show that
translation symmetry alone is enough to enable a second order CFL-FL
transition. We argue that there must be critical CDW fluctuations though
neither phase has long range CDW order. We present experimental signatures the
most striking of which is a universal jump of both longitudinal and Hall
resistivities at the critical point. With disorder, we argue that the CDW order
gets pinned and the CFL-FL evolution happens through an intermediate
electrically insulating phase with mobile neutral fermions. A clean analog of
this insulating phase with long range CDW order and a neutral fermi surface can
potentially also exist. We discuss the properties of this phase and the nature
of its phase transitions. We also present a critical theory for the CFL to FL
transition at filling . Our work opens up a new avenue to
realize deconfined criticalities and fractionalized phases beyond familiar
Landau level physics in the moir\'e Chern band system.Comment: 17+3 page

Distance-aware Attention Reshaping: Enhance Generalization of Neural Solver for Large-scale Vehicle Routing Problems
Neural solvers based on attention mechanism have demonstrated remarkable
effectiveness in solving vehicle routing problems. However, in the
generalization process from small scale to large scale, we find a phenomenon of
the dispersion of attention scores in existing neural solvers, which leads to
poor performance. To address this issue, this paper proposes a distance-aware
attention reshaping method, assisting neural solvers in solving large-scale
vehicle routing problems. Specifically, without the need for additional
training, we utilize the Euclidean distance information between current nodes
to adjust attention scores. This enables a neural solver trained on small-scale
instances to make rational choices when solving a large-scale problem.
Experimental results show that the proposed method significantly outperforms
existing state-of-the-art neural solvers on the large-scale CVRPLib dataset
