Testable non-linearity through entanglement measurement
A model of correlated particles described by a generalized probability theory
is suggested whose dynamics is subject to a non-linear version of Schr\"odinger
equation. Such equations arise in many different contexts, most notably in the
proposals for the gravitationally induced collapse of wave function. Here, it
is shown that the consequence of the connection demonstrates a possible
deviation of the theory from the standard formulation of quantum mechanics in
the probability prediction of experiments. The links are identified from the
fact that the analytic solution of the equation is given by Dirichlet
eigenvalues which can be expressed by generalized trigonometric function.
Consequently, modified formulation of Born's rule is obtained by relating the
event probability of the measuement to an arbitrary exponent of the modulus of
the eigenvalue solution. Such system, which is subject to the non-linear
dynamic equation, illustrates the violation of the Clauser-Hore-Shimony-Holt
inequality proportional to the degree of the non-linearity as it can be tested
by a real experiment. Depending upon the degree, it is found that the violation
can go beyond Tsirelson bound and reaches to the value of nonlocal
box.Comment: 3 figure
Substitutions, tiling dynamical systems and minimal self-joinings
We investigate substitution subshifts and tiling dynamical systems arising
from the substitutions (1) \theta : 0 \rightarrow 001,1 \rightarrow 11001 and
(2) \eta : 0 \rightarrow 001,1 \rightarrow 11100. We show that the substitution
subshifts arising from \theta and \eta have minimal self-joinings and are
mildly mixing. We also give a criterion for 1-dimensional tiling systems
arising from \theta or \eta to have minimal self-joinings. We apply this to
obtain examples of mildly mixing 1-dimensional tiling systems
Entropy Maximization and Instability of Uniformly Magnetized Plasma
A regime where a uniformly magnetized plasma could be unstable to a spatial
perturbation in the magnetic field is explored. In this regime, a uniformly
magnetized state does not maximize the entropy. The physical implication is
discussed in the context of the current generation, the magnetic reconnection,
and the dynamo effect

On conformally flat circle bundles over surfaces
We study surface groups in , which is the group of Mobius
tranformations of , and also the group of isometries of . We
consider such so that its limit set is a quasi-circle
in , and so that the quotient is a
circle bundle over a surface. This circle bundle is said to be conformally
flat, and our main goal is to discover how twisted such bundle may be by
establishing a bound on its Euler number. By combinatorial approaches, we have
two soft bounds in this direction on certain types of nice structures. In this
article we also construct new examples, a "grafting" type path in the space of
surface group representations into : starting inside the
quasi-Fuschsian locus, going through non-discrete territory and back.Comment: 28 pages, 7 figures. Updated from Thesis version: more correct bound
