The neutral top-pion and the lepton flavor violating ZZ decays Z→liljZ\to l_{i}l_{j}

Taking into account the constraints of the present experimental limit of the process $\mu\to e\gamma$ on the free parameters of topcolor-assisted technicolor(TC2) models, we calculate the contributions of the neutral top-pion to the lepton flavor violating(LFV) $Z$ decays $Z\to l_{i}l_{j}$. Our results show that the value of the branching ratio $Br(Z\to \tau l)$ is larger than that of $Br(Z\to \mu e)$ in all of the parameter space and there is $Br(Z\to \tau\mu)\approx Br(Z\to \tau e)\simeq 2\times 10^{-14}$, which is far from the reach of present or future experiments.Comment: 12 pages and 3 figures.

New Pinning Synchronization of Complex Networks with Time-Varying Coupling Strength and Nondelayed and Delayed Coupling

The pinning synchronization problem for a class of complex networks is studied by a stochastic viewpoint, in which both time-varying coupling strength and nondelayed and delayed coupling are included. Different from the traditionally similar methods, its interval is separated into two subintervals and described by a Bernoulli variable. Both bounds and switching probability of such subintervals are contained. Particularly, the nondelayed and delayed couplings occur alternately in which another independent Bernoulli variable is introduced. Then, a new kind of pinning controller without time-varying coupling strength signal is developed, in which only its bounds and probabilities are contained. When such probabilities are unavailable, two different kinds of adaption laws are established to make the complex network globally synchronous. Finally, the validity of the presented methods is proved through a numerical example
