Generalized Solutions for Quantum Mechanical Oscillator on K\"{a}hler Conifold

We study the possible generalized boundary conditions and the corresponding solutions for the quantum mechanical oscillator model on K\"{a}hler conifold. We perform it by self-adjoint extension of the the initial domain of the effective radial Hamiltonian. Remarkable effect of this generalized boundary condition is that at certain boundary condition the orbital angular momentum degeneracy is restored! We also recover the known spectrum in our formulation, which of course correspond to some other boundary condition.Comment: 7 pages, latex, no figur

Continuum robots and underactuated grasping

We discuss the capabilities of continuum (continuous backbone) robot structures in the performance of under-actuated grasping. Continuum robots offer the potential of robust grasps over a wide variety of object classes, due to their ability to adapt their shape to interact with the environment via non-local continuum contact conditions. Furthermore, this capability can be achieved with simple, low degree of freedom hardware. However, there are practical issues which currently limit the application of continuum robots to grasping. We discuss these issues and illustrate via an experimental continuum grasping case study. <br><br> <i>This paper was presented at the IFToMM/ASME International Workshop on Underactuated Grasping (UG2010), 19 August 2010, Montréal, Canada.</i&gt

Low Degree Metabolites Explain Essential Reactions and Enhance Modularity in Biological Networks

Recently there has been a lot of interest in identifying modules at the level of genetic and metabolic networks of organisms, as well as in identifying single genes and reactions that are essential for the organism. A goal of computational and systems biology is to go beyond identification towards an explanation of specific modules and essential genes and reactions in terms of specific structural or evolutionary constraints. In the metabolic networks of E. coli, S. cerevisiae and S. aureus, we identified metabolites with a low degree of connectivity, particularly those that are produced and/or consumed in just a single reaction. Using FBA we also determined reactions essential for growth in these metabolic networks. We find that most reactions identified as essential in these networks turn out to be those involving the production or consumption of low degree metabolites. Applying graph theoretic methods to these metabolic networks, we identified connected clusters of these low degree metabolites. The genes involved in several operons in E. coli are correctly predicted as those of enzymes catalyzing the reactions of these clusters. We independently identified clusters of reactions whose fluxes are perfectly correlated. We find that the composition of the latter `functional clusters' is also largely explained in terms of clusters of low degree metabolites in each of these organisms. Our findings mean that most metabolic reactions that are essential can be tagged by one or more low degree metabolites. Those reactions are essential because they are the only ways of producing or consuming their respective tagged metabolites. Furthermore, reactions whose fluxes are strongly correlated can be thought of as `glued together' by these low degree metabolites.Comment: 12 pages main text with 2 figures and 2 tables. 16 pages of Supplementary material.

RECENT MARKETING TECHINQUES ON SUPER MARKETS: IT’S IMPACT ON RETAILERS

Marketing itself has a wide variety of flavors based on consumers, media & business in today’s evolving & dynamic market place. According to American Marketing Institution “Marketing is an activity, set of instructions & process for creating, communicating & exchanging offerings that have value for customers, clients, partners & society at large.”            Marketing includes all necessary steps taken by the organization inorder to sell its product & not only sell it but sell it with a good profit margin. Philip Kotler has rightly stated that “Marketing is meeting the needs of customers at a profit.”            The organizations plan various strategies to win over its competitors when it comes about selling of products with wide profit margin. Many techniques are selected by organizations to attract mass consumers towards their product. Some of these marketing strategies are discussed below-            The organizations main strategy in constructing its marketing plans is to combine all its marketing goals into one comprehensive goal. Always marketing research should be the base for marketing strategies. The focus should be on right product mix in order to achieve the most of profit potential & sustainability of the business. Basically marketing strategy is the foundation for marketing plan

Quantum oscillator on complex projective space (Lobachewski space) in constant magnetic field and the issue of generic boundary conditions

We perform a 1-parameter family of self-adjoint extensions characterized by the parameter $\omega_0$. This allows us to get generic boundary conditions for the quantum oscillator on $N$ dimensional complex projective space($\mathbb{C}P^N$) and on its non-compact version i.e., Lobachewski space($\mathcal L_N$) in presence of constant magnetic field. As a result, we get a family of energy spectrums for the oscillator. In our formulation the already known result of this oscillator is also belong to the family. We have also obtained energy spectrum which preserve all the symmetry (full hidden symmetry and rotational symmetry) of the oscillator. The method of self-adjoint extensions have been discussed for conic oscillator in presence of constant magnetic field also.Comment: Accepted in Journal of Physics

Effect of La Doping on Microstructure and Critical Current Density of MgB2

In the present study, La-doped MgB_2 superconductors with different doping level (Mg1-xLaxB2; x=0.00, 0.01, 0.03 & 0.05) have been synthesized by solid-state reaction route at ambient pressure. Effect of La doping have been investigated in relation to microstructural characteristics and superconducting properties, particularly intragrain critical current density (Jc). The microstructural characteristics of the as synthesized Mg(La)B2 compounds were studied employing transmission electron microscopic (TEM) technique. The TEM investigations reveal inclusion of LaB6 nanoparticles within the MgB2 grains which provide effective flux pinning centres. The evaluation of intragrain Jc through magnetic measurements on the fine powdered version of the as synthesized samples reveal that Jc of the samples change significantly with the doping level. The optimum result on Jc is obtained for Mg0.97La0.03B2 at 5K, the Jc reaches ~1.4x107A/cm2 in self field, ~2.1 x 106A/cm2 at 1T, ~2.5 x 105A/cm2 at 2.5T and ~1.8 x 104 A/cm2 at 4.5T. The highest value of intragrain Jc in Mg0.97La0.03B2 superconductor has been attributed to the inclusion of LaB6 nanoparticles which are capable of providing effective flux pinning centres
