Quasiparticle excitations and hierarchies of 4-dimensional quantum Hall fluid states in the matrix models

We investigate the condensate mechanism of the low-lying excitations in the matrix models of 4-dimensional quantum Hall fluids recently proposed by us. It is shown that there exist some hierarchies of 4-dimensional quantum Hall fluid states in the matrix models, and they are similar to the Haldane's hierarchy in the 2-dimensional quantum Hall fluids. However, these hierarchical fluid states appear consistently in our matrix models without any requirement of modifications of the matrix models.Comment: 5 pages, no figure, revte

Quantum Measured Information

A framework for a quantum information theory is introduced that is based on the measure of quantum information associated with probability distribution predicted by quantum measuring of state. The entanglement between states of measured system and "pointer" states of measuring apparatus, which is generated by dynamical process of quantum measurement, plays a dominant role in expressing quantum characteristics of information theory. The quantum mutual information of transmission and reception of quantum states along a noisy quantum channel is given by the change of quantum measured information. In our approach, it is not necessary to purify the transmitted state by means of the reference system. It is also clarified that there exist relations between the approach given in this letter and those given by other authors.Comment: 4 pages, revtex file, no figur

Rigid open membrane and non-abelian non-commutative Chern-Simons theory

In the Berkooz-Douglas matrix model of M theory in the presence of longitudinal $M5$-brane, we investigate the effective dynamics of the system by considering the longitudinal $M5$-brane as the background and the spherical $M5$-brane related with the other space dimensions as the probe brane. Due to there exists the background field strength provided by the source of the longitudinal $M5$-brane, an open membrane should be ended on the spherical $M5$-brane based on the topological reason. The formation of the bound brane configuration for the open membrane ending on the 5-branes in the background of longitudinal 5-brane can be used to model the 4-dimensional quantum Hall system proposed recently by Zhang and Hu. The description of the excitations of the quantum Hall soliton brane configuration is established by investigating the fluctuations of $D0$-branes living on the bound brane around their classical solution derived by the transformations of area preserving diffeomorphisms of the open membrane. We find that this effective field theory for the fluctuations is an SO(4) non-commutative Chern-Simons field theory. The matrix regularized version of this effective field theory is given in order to allow the finite $D0$-branes to live on the bound brane. We also discuss some possible applications of our results to the related topics in M-theory and to the 4-dimensional quantum Hall system.Comment: 23 pages, no figure

Revisit on "Ruling out chaos in compact binary systems"

Full general relativity requires that chaos indicators should be invariant in various spacetime coordinate systems for a given relativistic dynamical problem. On the basis of this point, we calculate the invariant Lyapunov exponents (LEs) for one of the spinning compact binaries in the conservative second post-Newtonian (2PN) Lagrangian formulation without the dissipative effects of gravitational radiation, using the two-nearby-orbits method with projection operations and with coordinate time as an independent variable. It is found that the actual source leading to zero LEs in one paper [J. D. Schnittman and F. A. Rasio, Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 121101 (2001)] but to positive LEs in the other [N. J. Cornish and J. Levin, Phys. Rev. Lett. 89, 179001 (2002)] does not mainly depend on rescaling, but is due to two slightly different treatments of the LEs. It takes much more CPU time to obtain the stabilizing limit values as reliable values of LEs for the former than to get the slopes (equal to LEs) of the fit lines for the latter. Due to coalescence of some of the black holes, the LEs from the former are not an adaptive indicator of chaos for comparable mass compact binaries. In this case, the invariant fast Lyapunov indicator (FLI) of two-nearby orbits, as a very sensitive tool to distinguish chaos from order, is worth recommending. As a result, we do again find chaos in the 2PN approximation through different ratios of FLIs varying with time. Chaos cannot indeed be ruled out in real binaries.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure

On risk-sensitive piecewise deterministic Markov decision processes

We consider a piecewise deterministic Markov decision process, where the expected exponential utility of total (nonnegative) cost is to be minimized. The cost rate, transition rate and post-jump distributions are under control. The state space is Borel, and the transition and cost rates are locally integrable along the drift. Under natural conditions, we establish the optimality equation, justify the value iteration algorithm, and show the existence of a deterministic stationary optimal policy. Applied to special cases, the obtained results already significantly improve some existing results in the literature on finite horizon and infinite horizon discounted risk-sensitive continuous-time Markov decision processes.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1610.0284

Symplectic structure of post-Newtonian Hamiltonian for spinning compact binaries

The phase space of a Hamiltonian system is symplectic. However, the post-Newtonian Hamiltonian formulation of spinning compact binaries in existing publications does not have this property, when position, momentum and spin variables $[X, P, S_1, S_2]$ compose its phase space. This may give a convenient application of perturbation theory to the derivation of the post-Newtonian formulation, but also makes classic theories of a symplectic Hamiltonian system be a serious obstacle in application, especially in diagnosing integrability and nonintegrability from a dynamical system theory perspective. To completely understand the dynamical characteristic of the integrability or nonintegrability for the binary system, we construct a set of conjugate spin variables and reexpress the spin Hamiltonian part so as to make the complete Hamiltonian formulation symplectic. As a result, it is directly shown with the least number of independent isolating integrals that a conservative Hamiltonian compact binary system with both one spin and the pure orbital part to any post-Newtonian order is typically integrable and not chaotic. And conservative binary system consisting of two spins restricted to the leading order spin-orbit interaction and the pure orbital part at all post-Newtonian orders is also integrable, independently on the mass ratio. For all other various spinning cases, the onset of chaos is possible.Comment: 7 pages, no fig

Simultaneous Model Selection and Estimation for Mean and Association Structures with Clustered Binary Data

This paper investigates the property of the penalized estimating equations when both the mean and association structures are modelled. To select variables for the mean and association structures sequentially, we propose a hierarchical penalized generalized estimating equations (HPGEE2) approach. The first set of penalized estimating equations is solved for the selection of significant mean parameters. Conditional on the selected mean model, the second set of penalized estimating equations is solved for the selection of significant association parameters. The hierarchical approach is designed to accommodate possible model constraints relating the inclusion of covariates into the mean and the association models. This two-step penalization strategy enjoys a compelling advantage of easing computational burdens compared to solving the two sets of penalized equations simultaneously. HPGEE2 with a smoothly clipped absolute deviation (SCAD) penalty is shown to have the oracle property for the mean and association models. The asymptotic behavior of the penalized estimator under this hierarchical approach is established. An efficient two-stage penalized weighted least square algorithm is developed to implement the proposed method. The empirical performance of the proposed HPGEE2 is demonstrated through Monte-Carlo studies and the analysis of a clinical data set

Rank three bipartite entangled states are distillable

We prove that the bipartite entangled state of rank three is distillable. So there is no rank three bipartite bound entangled state. By using this fact, We present some families of rank four states that are distillable. We also analyze the relation between the low rank state and the Werner state.Comment: 5 pages; no figur

Disk relations for tree amplitudes in minimal coupling theory of gauge field and gravity

KLT relations on $S_2$ factorize closed string amplitudes into product of open string tree amplitudes. The field theory limits of KLT factorization relations hold in minimal coupling theory of gauge field and gravity. In this paper, we consider the field theory limits of relations on $D_2$. Though the relations on $D_2$ and KLT factorization relations hold on worldsheets with different topologies, we find the field theory limits of $D_2$ relations also hold in minimal coupling theory of gauge field and gravity. We use the $D_2$ relations to give three- and four-point tree amplitudes where gluons are minimally coupled to gravitons. We also give a discussion on general tree amplitudes for minimal coupling of gauge field and gravity. In general, any tree amplitude with $M$ gravitons in addition to $N$ gluons can be given by pure-gluon tree amplitudes with $N+2M$ legs.Comment: 28 pages, 4 figure
