Type-III two Higgs doublet model plus a pseudoscalar confronted with h→μτh\rightarrow\mu\tau, muon g−2g-2 and dark matter

In this work, we introduce an extra singlet pseudoscalar into the Type-III two Higgs doublet model (2HDM) which is supposed to solve a series of problems in the modern particle-cosmology. With existence of a light pseudoscalar, the $h\rightarrow\mu\tau$ excess measured at CMS and as well as the $(g-2)_{\mu}$ anomaly could be simultaneously explained within certain parameter spaces that can also tolerate the data on the flavor-violating processes $\tau\rightarrow\mu\gamma$ and Higgs decay gained at LHC. Within the same parameter spaces, the DM relic abundance is well accounted. Moreover, the recently observed Galactic Center gamma ray excess(GCE) is proposed to realize through dark matter(DM) pair annihilations, and in this work, the scenario of the annihilation being mediated by the pseudoscalar is also addressed.Comment: 14 pages, 8 figures, version to appear in NP

Exploring open-charm decay mode ΛcΛˉc\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c of charmonium-like state Y(4630)Y(4630)

The newly observed $X, Y, Z$ exotic states are definitely not in the standard $Q\bar Q'$ structures, thus their existence composes a challenge to our understanding on the fundamental principles of hadron physics. Therefore the studies on their decay patterns which are determined by the non-perturbative QCD will definitely shed light on the concerned physics. Generally the four-quark states might be in a molecular state or tetraquark or their mixture. In this work, we adopt the suggestion that $Y(4630)$ is a charmonium-like tetraquark made of a diquark and an anti-diquark. If it is true, its favorable decay mode should be $Y(4630)$ decaying into an open-charm baryon pair, since such a transition occurs via strong interaction and is super-OZI-allowed. In this work, we calculate the decay width of $Y(4630)\to\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c$ in the framework of the quark pair creation (QPC) model. Our numerical results on the partial width computed in the tetraquark configuration coincide with the Belle data within a certain error tolerance.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, 1 table.

The algebraic geometry of perfect and sequential equilibrium: an extension

We extend the generic equivalence result of Blume and Zame (Econometrica 62: 783-794, 1994) to a broader context of perfectly and sequentially rational strategic behavior (including equilibrium and nonequilibrium behavior) through a unifying solution concept of "mutually acceptable course of action" (MACA) proposed by Greenberg et al. (2009). As a by-product, we show, in the affirmative, Dekel et al.'s (1999) conjecture on the generic equivalence between the sequential and perfect versions of rationalizable self-confirming equilibrium.

MIMO Interference Channels Assisted by Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces: Mutual Coupling Aware Sum-Rate Optimization Based on a Mutual Impedance Channel Model

We investigate a multi-user multiple-input multiple-output interference network in the presence of multiple reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs). The entire system is described by using a circuit-based model for the transmitters, receivers, and RISs. This is obtained by leveraging the electromagnetic tool of mutual impedances, which accounts for the signal propagation and the mutual coupling among closely-spaced scattering elements. An iterative and provably convergent optimization algorithm that maximizes the sum-rate of RIS-assisted multi-user interference channels is introduced. Numerical results show that the sum-rate is enhanced if the mutual coupling among the elements of the RISs is accounted for at the optimization stage.Comment: Article submitted for journal publicatio

Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface-Assisted Secret Key Generation in Spatially Correlated Channels

Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) is a disruptive technology to enhance the performance of physical-layer key generation (PKG) thanks to its ability to smartly customize the radio environments. Existing RIS-assisted PKG methods are mainly based on the idealistic assumption of an independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) channel model at both the base station (BS) and the RIS. However, the i.i.d. model is inaccurate for a typical RIS in an isotropic scattering environment and neglecting the existence of channel spatial correlation would possibly degrade the PKG performance. In this paper, we establish a general spatially correlated channel model and propose a new channel probing framework based on the transmit and the reflective beamforming. We derive a closed-form key generation rate (KGR) expression and formulate an optimization problem, which is solved by using the low-complexity Block Successive Upper-bound Minimization (BSUM) with Mirror-Prox method. Simulation results show that compared to the existing methods based on the i.i.d. fading model, our proposed method achieves about $5$ dB transmit power gain when the spacing between two neighboring RIS elements is a quarter of the wavelength. Also, the KGR increases significantly with the number of RIS elements while that increases marginally with the number of BS antennas.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2207.1175
