    Using the QCD sum rule approach we study the Y(4260) state assuming that it can be described by a mixed charmonium-tetraquark current with JPC=1J^{PC}=1^{--} quantum numbers. For the mixing angle around θ(53.0±0.5)0\theta \approx (53.0\pm 0.5)^{0}, we obtain a value for the mass which is in good agreement with the experimental mass of the Y(4260). However, for the decay width we find the value \Ga_Y \approx (1.0\pm 0.2) MeV which is not compatible with the experimental value \Ga \approx (88\pm 23) MeV. Therefore, we conclude that, although we can explain the mass of the Y(4260), this state cannot be described as a mixed charmonium-tetraquark state since, with this assumption, we can not explain its decay width.Comment: 9 pages, 6 figure

    Regularity at infinity of real mappings and a Morse-Sard theorem

    Full text link
    We prove a new Morse-Sard type theorem for the asymptotic critical values of semi-algebraic mappings and a new fibration theorem at infinity for C2C^2 mappings. We show the equivalence of three different types of regularity conditions which have been used in the literature in order to control the asymptotic behaviour of mappings. The central role of our picture is played by the tt-regularity and its bridge toward the ρ\rho-regularity which implies topological triviality at infinity

    Ultraspinning instability: the missing link

    Full text link
    We study linearized perturbations of Myers-Perry black holes in d=7, with two of the three angular momenta set to be equal, and show that instabilities always appear before extremality. Analogous results are expected for all higher odd d. We determine numerically the stationary perturbations that mark the onset of instability for the modes that preserve the isometries of the background. The onset is continuously connected between the previously studied sectors of solutions with a single angular momentum and solutions with all angular momenta equal. This shows that the near-extremality instabilities are of the same nature as the ultraspinning instability of d>5 singly-spinning solutions, for which the angular momentum is unbounded. Our results raise the question of whether there are any extremal Myers-Perry black holes which are stable in d>5.Comment: 19 pages. 1 figur
