On the Rate of Convergence of Two Bernstein–Bézier Type Operators for Bounded Variation Functions, II
AbstractThe rates of convergence of two Bernstein–Bézier type operators B(α)n and L(α)n for functions of bounded variation have been studied for the case α⩾1 by the author and A. Piriou (1998, J. Approx. Theory95, 369–387). In this paper the other case 0<α<1 is treated and asymptotically optimal estimations of B(α)n and L(α)n for functions of bounded variation are obtained. Besides, some interesting behaviors of the operators B(α)n and L(α)n (α>0) for monotone functions and functions of bounded variation are also given
Approximation for absolutely continuous functions by Stancu Beta operators
In this paper, we obtain an exact estimate for the first-order absolute moment of Stancu Beta operators by means of the Stirling formula and integral operations. Then we use this estimate for establishing a theorem on approximation of absolutely continuous functions by Stancu Beta operators.Отримано точну оцiнку для абсолютного моменту бета-операторiв Станку першого порядку iз використанням формули Стiрлiнга та iнтегральних операцiй.

Holographic thermalization with a chemical potential in Gauss-Bonnet gravity
Holographic thermalization is studied in the framework of
Einstein-Maxwell-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We use the two-point correlation
function and expectation value of Wilson loop, which are dual to the
renormalized geodesic length and minimal area surface in the bulk, to probe the
thermalization. The numeric result shows that larger the Gauss-Bonnet
coefficient is, shorter the thermalization time is, and larger the charge is,
longer the thermalization time is, which implies that the Gauss-Bonnet
coefficient can accelerate the thermalization while the charge has an opposite
effect. In addition, we obtain the functions with respect to the thermalization
time for both the thermalization probes at a fixed charge and Gauss-Bonnet
coefficient, and on the basis of these functions, we obtain the thermalization
velocity, which shows that the thermalization process is non-monotonic. At the
middle and later periods of the thermalization process, we find that there is a
phase transition point, which divides the thermalization into an acceleration
phase and a deceleration phase. We also study the effect of the charge and
Gauss-Bonnet coefficient on the phase transition point.Comment: 23 pages, many figures,footnote 4 is modified. arXiv admin note:

Holographic thermalization in noncommutative geometry
Gravitational collapse of a shell of dust in noncommutative geometry is
probed by the renormalized geodesic length, which is dual to probe the
thermalization by the two-point correlation function in the dual conformal
field theory. We find that larger the noncommutative parameter is, longer the
thermalization time is, which implies that the large noncommutative parameter
delays the thermalization process. We also investigate how the noncommutative
parameter affects the thermalization velocity and thermalization acceleration.Comment: some materials have been delete
Van der Waals-like phase transition from holographic entanglement entropy in Lorentz breaking massive gravity
In this paper, phase transition of AdS black holes in lorentz breaking
massive gravity has been studied in the framework of holography. We find that
there is a first order phase transition(FPT) and second order phase
transition(SPT) both in Bekenstein-Hawking entropy(BHE)-temperature plane and
holographic entanglement entropy(HEE)-temperature plane. Furthermore, for the
FPT, the equal area law is checked and for the SPT, the critical exponent of
the heat capacity is also computed. Our results confirm that the phase
structure of HEE is similar to that of BHE in lorentz breaking massive gravity,
which implies that HEE and BHE have some potential underlying relationship.Comment: 10 pages, 10 figure
Mutual correlation in the shock wave geometry
We probe the shock wave geometry with the mutual correlation in a spherically
symmetric Reissner Nordstr\"om AdS black hole on the basis of the gauge/gravity
duality. In the static background, we find that the regions living on the
boundary of the AdS black holes are correlated provided the considered regions
on the boundary are large enough. We also investigate the effect of the charge
on the mutual correlation and find that the bigger the value of the charge is,
the smaller the value of the mutual correlation will to be. As a small
perturbation is added at the AdS boundary, the horizon shifts and a dynamical
shock wave geometry forms after long time enough. In this dynamic background,
we find that the greater the shift of the horizon is, the smaller the mutual
correlation will to be. Especially for the case that the shift is large enough,
the mutual correlation vanishes, which implies that the considered regions on
the boundary are uncorrelated. The effect of the charge on the mutual
correlation in this dynamic background is found to be the same as that in the
static background.Comment: 10 page
Species-specific Differences among KCNMB3 BK β3 Auxiliary Subunits: Some β3 N-terminal Variants May Be Primate-specific Subunits
The KCNMB3 gene encodes one of a family of four auxiliary β subunits found in the mammalian genome that associate with Slo1 α subunits and regulate BK channel function. In humans, the KCNMB3 gene contains four N-terminal alternative exons that produce four functionally distinct β3 subunits, β3a–d. Three variants, β3a–c, exhibit kinetically distinct inactivation behaviors. Since investigation of the physiological roles of BK auxiliary subunits will depend on studies in rodents, here we have determined the identity and functional properties of mouse β3 variants. Whereas β1, β2, and β4 subunits exhibit 83.2%, 95.3%, and 93.8% identity between mouse and human, the mouse β3 subunit, excluding N-terminal splice variants, shares only 62.8% amino acid identity with its human counterpart. Based on an examination of the mouse genome and screening of mouse cDNA libraries, here we have identified only two N-terminal candidates, β3a and β3b, of the four found in humans. Both human and mouse β3a subunits produce a characteristic use-dependent inactivation. Surprisingly, whereas the hβ3b exhibits rapid inactivation, the putative mβ3b does not inactivate. Furthermore, unlike hβ3, the mβ3 subunit, irrespective of the N terminus, mediates a shift in gating to more negative potentials at a given Ca2+ concentration. The shift in gating gradually is lost following patch excision, suggesting that the gating shift involves some regulatory process dependent on the cytosolic milieu. Examination of additional genomes to assess conservation among splice variants suggests that the putative mβ3b N terminus may not be a true orthologue of the hβ3b N terminus and that both β3c and β3d appear likely to be primate-specific N-terminal variants. These results have three key implications: first, functional properties of homologous β3 subunits may differ among mammalian species; second, the specific physiological roles of homologous β3 subunits may differ among mammalian species; and, third, some β3 variants may be primate-specific ion channel subunits
Miniaturization of Branch-Line Coupler Using Composite Right/Left-Handed Transmission Lines with Novel Meander-shaped-slots CSSRR
A novel compact-size branch-line coupler using composite right/left-handed transmission lines is proposed in this paper. In order to obtain miniaturization, composite right/left-handed transmission lines with novel complementary split single ring resonators which are realized by loading a pair of meander-shaped-slots in the split of the ring are designed. This novel coupler occupies only 22.8% of the area of the conventional approach at 0.7 GHz. The proposed coupler can be implemented by using the standard printed-circuit-board etching processes without any implementation of lumped elements and via-holes, making it very useful for wireless communication systems. The agreement between measured and stimulated results validates the feasible configuration of the proposed coupler
