Convergence and multiplicities for the Lempert function
Given a domain , the Lempert function is a
functional on the space Hol (\D,\Omega) of analytic disks with values in
, depending on a set of poles in . We generalize its definition
to the case where poles have multiplicities given by local indicators (in the
sense of Rashkovskii's work) to obtain a function which still dominates the
corresponding Green function, behaves relatively well under limits, and is
monotonic with respect to the indicators. In particular, this is an improvement
over the previous generalization used by the same authors to find an example of
a set of poles in the bidisk so that the (usual) Green and Lempert functions
differ.Comment: 24 pages; many typos corrected thanks to the referee of Arkiv for

Jacobi Identity for Vertex Algebras in Higher Dimensions
Vertex algebras in higher dimensions provide an algebraic framework for
investigating axiomatic quantum field theory with global conformal invariance.
We develop further the theory of such vertex algebras by introducing formal
calculus techniques and investigating the notion of polylocal fields. We derive
a Jacobi identity which together with the vacuum axiom can be taken as an
equivalent definition of vertex algebra.Comment: 35 pages, references adde
Two regularizations - two different models of Nambu-Jona-Lasinio
Two variants of the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model -- the model with 4-dimensional
cutoff and the model with dimensionally-analytical regularization -- are
systematically compared. It is shown that they are, in essence, two different
models of light-quark interaction. In the mean-field approximation the
distinction becomes apparent in a behavior of scalar amplitude near the
threshold. For 4-dimensional cutoff the pole term can be extracted, which
corresponds to sigma-meson. For dimensionally-analytical regularization the
singularity of the scalar amplitude is not pole, and this singularity is quite
disappeared at some value of the regularization parameter.
Still more essential distinction of these models exists in the
next-to-leading order of mean-field expansion. The calculations of meson
contributions in the quark chiral condensate and in the dynamical quark mass
demonstrate, that these contributions though their relatively smallness can
destabilize the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model with 4-dimensional cutoff. On the
contrary, the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model with dimensionally-analytical
regularization is stabilized with the next-to-leading order, i.e. the value of
the regularization parameter shifts to the stability region, where these
contributions decrease.Comment: 14 pages; Journal version; parameter fixing procedure is modifie
Randomized Benchmarking using Non-Destructive Readout in a 2D Atom Array
Neutral atoms are a promising platform for scalable quantum computing,
however prior demonstration of high fidelity gates or low-loss readout methods
have employed restricted numbers of qubits. Using randomized benchmarking of
microwave-driven single-qubit gates, we demonstrate single qubit gate errors of
on 225 atoms using conventional, destructive readout. This
exceeds the threshold for fault-tolerance. We further demonstrate suppression
of measurement errors via low-loss, non-destructive and state-selective readout
on 49 atoms. This enables post-selection for atom loss, which is a primary
source of errors in present setups.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures plus Supplementary Materia
Fibromyalgia: dental aspects
Fibromyalgia is a disease accompanied by diffuse chronic pain for >3 months and tenderness on palpation in at least 11 of 18 anatomic points (American College of Rheumatology criteria). Gnathalgia was also included in the revised fibromyalgia criteria in 2010. Some patients have facial pain spots, symptoms and signs of temporomandibular dysfunction in combination with chronic fatigue and sleep disorder. The paper presents the results of an anonymous questionnaire survey in patients with a valid diagnosis of fibromyalgia. The patients with this disease require a follow-up by a family physician, a rheumatologist, and a dentist
HST hot-Jupiter transmission spectral survey: Haze in the atmosphere of WASP-6b
We report Hubble Space Telescope (HST) optical to near-infrared transmission
spectroscopy of the hot Jupiter WASP-6b, measured with the Space Telescope
Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) and Spitzer's InfraRed Array Camera (IRAC). The
resulting spectrum covers the range m. We find evidence for
modest stellar activity of WASP-6b and take it into account in the transmission
spectrum. The overall main characteristic of the spectrum is an increasing
radius as a function of decreasing wavelength corresponding to a change of
from 0.33 to m. The spectrum suggests
an effective extinction cross-section with a power law of index consistent with
Rayleigh scattering, with temperatures of K at the planetary
terminator. We compare the transmission spectrum with hot-Jupiter atmospheric
models including condensate-free and aerosol-dominated models incorporating Mie
theory. While none of the clear-atmosphere models is found to be in good
agreement with the data, we find that the complete spectrum can be described by
models that include significant opacity from aerosols including Fe-poor
MgSiO, MgSiO, KCl and NaS dust condensates. WASP-6b is the
second planet after HD189733b which has equilibrium temperatures near
K and shows prominent atmospheric scattering in the optical.Comment: 18 pages, 15 figures, 7 table
Bose-Einstein condensation in trapped dipolar gases
We discuss Bose-Einstein condensation in a trapped gas of bosonic particles
interacting dominantly via dipole-dipole forces. We find that in this case the
mean-field interparticle interaction and, hence, the stability diagram are
governed by the trapping geometry. Possible physical realisations include
ultracold heteronuclear molecules, or atoms with laser induced electric dipole
moments.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
