    Holographic p-wave superconductor models with Weyl corrections

    We study the effect of the Weyl corrections on the holographic p-wave dual models in the backgrounds of AdS soliton and AdS black hole via a Maxwell complex vector field model by using the numerical and analytical methods. We find that, in the soliton background, the Weyl corrections do not influence the properties of the holographic p-wave insulator/superconductor phase transition, which is different from that of the Yang-Mills theory. However, in the black hole background, we observe that similar to the Weyl correction effects in the Yang-Mills theory, the higher Weyl corrections make it easier for the p-wave metal/superconductor phase transition to be triggered, which shows that these two p-wave models with Weyl corrections share some similar features for the condensation of the vector operator.Comment: 17 pages, 3 figures, 3 tables, accepted for publication in Phys.

    Some one-sided estimates for oscillatory singular integrals

    Full text link
    The purpose of this paper is to establish some one-sided estimates for oscillatory singular integrals. The boundedness of certain oscillatory singular integral on weighted Hardy spaces H+1(w)H^{1}_{+}(w) is proved. It is here also show that the H+1(w)H^{1}_{+}(w) theory of oscillatory singular integrals above cannot be extended to the case of H+q(w)H^{q}_{+}(w) when 0<q<10<q<1 and w∈Ap+w\in A_{p}^{+}, a wider weight class than the classical Muckenhoupt class. Furthermore, a criterion on the weighted LpL^{p}-boundednesss of the oscillatory singular integral is given.Comment: 24 pages, Nonlinear Anal. 201

    Virtual to Real Reinforcement Learning for Autonomous Driving

    Full text link
    Reinforcement learning is considered as a promising direction for driving policy learning. However, training autonomous driving vehicle with reinforcement learning in real environment involves non-affordable trial-and-error. It is more desirable to first train in a virtual environment and then transfer to the real environment. In this paper, we propose a novel realistic translation network to make model trained in virtual environment be workable in real world. The proposed network can convert non-realistic virtual image input into a realistic one with similar scene structure. Given realistic frames as input, driving policy trained by reinforcement learning can nicely adapt to real world driving. Experiments show that our proposed virtual to real (VR) reinforcement learning (RL) works pretty well. To our knowledge, this is the first successful case of driving policy trained by reinforcement learning that can adapt to real world driving data

    A simple entanglement measure for multipartite pure states

    Full text link
    A simple entanglement measure for multipartite pure states is formulated based on the partial entropy of a series of reduced density matrices. Use of the proposed new measure to distinguish disentangled, partially entangled, and maximally entangled multipartite pure states is illustrated.Comment: 8 pages LaTe
