The tensor renormalization group study of the general spin-S Blume-Capel model
We focus on the special situation of of the general spin-S Blume-Capel
model on the square lattice. Under the infinitesimal external magnetic field,
the phase transition behaviors due to the thermal fluctuations are discussed by
the newly developed tensor renormalization group method. For the case of the
integer spin-S, the system will undergo first-order phase transitions with
the successive symmetry breaking with the magnetization . For the
half-integer spin-S, there are similar first order phase transition
with stepwise structure, in addition, there is a continuous
phase transition due to the spin-flip symmetry breaking. In the low
temperature regions, all first-order phase transitions are accompanied by the
successive disappearance of the optional spin-component pairs(),
furthermore, the critical temperature for the nth first-order phase transition
is the same, independent of the value of the spin-S. In the absence of the
magnetic field, the visualization parameter characterizing the intrinsic
degeneracy of the different phases clearly demonstrates the phase transition
process.Comment: 6 pages, 7 figure
Constraints on primordial black holes and primeval density perturbations from the epoch of reionization
We investigate the constraint on the abundance of primordial black holes
(PBHs) and the spectral index of primeval density perturbations given by
the ionizing photon background at the epoch of reionization. Within the
standard inflationary cosmogony, we show that the spectral index of the
power-law power spectrum of primeval density perturbations should be 1.27.
Since the universe is still optical thick at the reionization redshift - 8, this constraint is independent of the unknown parameter of reheating
temperature of the inflation. The ionizing photon background from the PBHs can
be well approximated by a power law spectrum , which is
greatly different from those given by models of massive stars and quasars.Comment: 4 pages, 3 eps figues, to be published in ApJ Letter

Data transfer of non-matching meshes in a common dimensionality reduction space for turbine blade
A data transfer method in dimensionality reduction space is proposed for the fluil-structure-interaction problems, which commonly have non-matching meshes at interface. The method provided in the article can reduce the dimensionality of the data transfer by means of projecting interface surface meshes into a dimensionality reduction space. The dimensionality reduction projection can be realized by defining local coordinates system for interface surface. Furthermore, the size of interface surface meshes has little influence on the data transfer. At last, the method is validated using a temperature transfer problem of turbine blade
