On Fleck quotients
Let be a prime, and let and be integers. In this paper we study
Fleck's quotient
We determine mod completely by certain number-theoretic and
combinatorial methods; consequently, if then
where are Bernoulli numbers. We also establish the
Kummer-type congruence for
, and reveal some connections between Fleck's quotients and class
numbers of the quadratic fields \Q(\sqrt{\pm p}) and the -th cyclotomic
field \Q(\zeta_p). In addition, generalized Fleck quotients are also studied
in this paper.Comment: 28 page
Unitarity Quadrangles of Four Neutrino Mixing
We present a classification of the unitarity quadrangles in the four-neutrino
mixing scheme. We find that there are totally thirty-six distinct topologies
among twelve different unitarity quadrangles. Concise relations are established
between the areas of those unitarity quadrangles and the rephasing invariants
of CP and violation.Comment: RevTex 10 pages. Minor changes made. Accepted for publication in

Technical Progress and the Share of Labor Income
Changes in the labor share of national income affect inequality (Piketty 2014). This paper aims at investigating the relationship between the labor share and technical progress, based on provincial data of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) from 1978 to 2012. Our main empirical results show that technical progress in the PRC had been mostly capital biased, contributing to the fast rises in income inequality in the PRC. However, the employment proportion of state-owned enterprises seems to have played a role in offsetting this negative effect, helping contain inequality. In recent years, both effects have become more significant and larger in absolute terms
Radiative Neutrino Mass with Dark matter: From Relic Density to LHC Signatures
In this work we give a comprehensive analysis on the phenomenology of a
specific dark matter (DM) model in which neutrino mass is
induced at two loops by interactions with a DM particle that can be a complex
scalar or a Dirac fermion. Both the DM properties in relic density and direct
detection and the LHC signatures are examined in great detail, and indirect
detection for gamma-ray excess from the Galactic Center is also discussed
briefly. On the DM side, both semi-annihilation and co-annihilation processes
play a crucial role in alleviating the tension of parameter space between relic
density and direct detection. On the collider side, new decay channels
resulting from particles lead to distinct signals at LHC.
Currently the trilepton signal is expected to give the most stringent bound for
both scalar and fermion DM candidates, and the signatures of fermion DM are
very similar to those of electroweakinos in simplified supersymmetric models.Comment: 40 pages, 24 figure
Analysis of the X(1576) as a tetraquark state with the QCD sum rules
In this letter, we take the point of view that the X(1576) be tetraquark
state which consists of a scalar-diquark and an anti-scalar-diquark in relative
-wave, and calculate its mass in the framework of the QCD sum rules
approach. The numerical value of the mass is
consistent with the experimental data, there may be some tetraquark component
in the vector meson X(1576).Comment: 6 pages, 1 figure, second version, typos correcte
The rare semi-leptonic decays involving orbitally excited final mesons
The rare processes , where
stands for the final meson ,
,~, ,
or~, are studied within the Standard Model. The hadronic matrix
elements are evaluated in the Bethe-Salpeter approach and furthermore a
discussion on the gauge-invariant condition of the annihilation hadronic
currents is presented. Considering the penguin, box, annihilation,
color-favored cascade and color-suppressed cascade contributions, the
observables , , and are
calculated
Maximum norm error estimates of the Crank–Nicolson scheme for solving a linear moving boundary problem
AbstractThe Crank–Nicolson scheme is considered for solving a linear convection–diffusion equation with moving boundaries. The original problem is transformed into an equivalent system defined on a rectangular region by a linear transformation. Using energy techniques we show that the numerical solutions of the Crank–Nicolson scheme are unconditionally stable and convergent in the maximum norm. Numerical experiments are presented to support our theoretical results
