Temporal 1/f^\alpha Fluctuations from Fractal Magnetic Fields in Black Hole Accretion Flow

Rapid fluctuation with a frequency dependence of $1/f^{\alpha}$ (with $\alpha \simeq 1 - 2$) is characteristic of radiation from black-hole objects. Its origin remains poorly understood. We examine the three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) simulation data, finding that a magnetized accretion disk exhibits both $1/f^\alpha$ fluctuation (with $\alpha \simeq 2$) and a fractal magnetic structure (with the fractal dimension of $D \sim 1.9$). The fractal field configuration leads reconnection events with a variety of released energy and of duration, thereby producing $1/f^\alpha$ fluctuations.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures.

On the classical equivalence of monodromy matrices in squashed sigma model

We proceed to study the hybrid integrable structure in two-dimensional non-linear sigma models with target space three-dimensional squashed spheres. A quantum affine algebra and a pair of Yangian algebras are realized in the sigma models and, according to them, there are two descriptions to describe the classical dynamics 1) the trigonometric description and 2) the rational description, respectively. For every description, a Lax pair is constructed and the associated monodromy matrix is also constructed. In this paper we show the gauge-equivalence of the monodromy matrices in the trigonometric and rational description under a certain relation between spectral parameters and the rescalings of sl(2) generators.Comment: 32pages, 3figures, references added, introduction and discussion sections revise

Lunin-Maldacena backgrounds from the classical Yang-Baxter equation -- Towards the gravity/CYBE correspondence

We consider \gamma-deformations of the AdS_5xS^5 superstring as Yang-Baxter sigma models with classical r-matrices satisfying the classical Yang-Baxter equation (CYBE). An essential point is that the classical r-matrices are composed of Cartan generators only and then generate abelian twists. We present examples of the r-matrices that lead to real \gamma-deformations of the AdS_5xS^5 superstring. Finally we discuss a possible classification of integrable deformations and the corresponding gravity solution in terms of solutions of CYBE. This classification may be called the gravity/CYBE correspondence.Comment: 18 pages, no figure, LaTeX, v2:references and further clarifications adde

The classical origin of quantum affine algebra in squashed sigma models

We consider a quantum affine algebra realized in two-dimensional non-linear sigma models with target space three-dimensional squashed sphere. Its affine generators are explicitly constructed and the Poisson brackets are computed. The defining relations of quantum affine algebra in the sense of the Drinfeld first realization are satisfied at classical level. The relation to the Drinfeld second realization is also discussed including higher conserved charges. Finally we comment on a semiclassical limit of quantum affine algebra at quantum level.Comment: 25 pages, 2 figure

Direct Minimization Approaches on Static Problems of Membranes

Within this work, direct minimization approaches on static problems of membranes are discussed. In the first half, standard direct minimization methods are discussed. Some form-finding analyses of tension structures are also illustrated as simple direct minimization approaches. In the second half, the principle of virtual works for cables, membranes, and 3-dimensional bodies are examined and they are approximated in a common way by using Galerkin method. Finally, some examples that direct minimization approaches can solve are reported
