Strongly Regular Graphs with Parameters (4m4, 2m4 + m2, m4 + m2, m4 + m2) Exist for All m>1
Using results on Hadamard difference sets, we construct regular graphical Hadamard matrices of negative type of order 4m4 for every positive integer m. If m > 1, such a Hadamard matrix is equivalent to a strongly regular graph with parameters (4m4, 2m4 +m2,m4 +m2,m4 +m2). Strongly regular graphs with these parameters have been called max energy graphs, because they have maximal energy (as defined by Gutman) among all graphs on 4m4 vertices. For odd m>3 the strongly regular graphs seem to be new.Cayley graph;difference set;energy of a graph;Hadamard matrix;regular Hadamard matrix;strongly regular graph;Seidel switching.
Multicast broadcast services support in OFDMA-based WiMAX systems [Advances in mobile multimedia]
Multimedia stream service provided by broadband wireless networks has emerged as an important technology and has attracted much attention. An all-IP network architecture with reliable high-throughput air interface makes orthogonal frequency division multiplexing access (OFDMA)-based mobile worldwide interoperability for microwave access (mobile WiMAX) a viable technology for wireless multimedia services, such as voice over IP (VoIP), mobile TV, and so on. One of the main features in a WiMAX MAC layer is that it can provide'differentiated services among different traffic categories with individual QoS requirements. In this article, we first give an overview of the key aspects of WiMAX and describe multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS) architecture of the 3GPP. Then, we propose a multicast and broadcast service (MBS) architecture for WiMAX that is based on MBMS. Moreover, we enhance the MBS architecture for mobile WiMAX to overcome the shortcoming of limited video broadcast performance over the baseline MBS model. We also give examples to demonstrate that the proposed architecture can support better mobility and offer higher power efficiency
Comment on "Time-Dependent Density-Matrix Renormalization Group: A Systematic Method for the Study of Quantum Many-Body Out-of- Equilibrium Systems"
In a recent Letter [Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 256403(2002), cond-mat/0109158]
Cazalilla and Marston proposed a time-dependent density- matrix renormalization
group (TdDMRG) algorithm for the accurate evaluation of out-of-equilibrium
properties of quantum many-body systems. For a point contact junction between
two Luttinger liquids, a current oscillation develops after initial transient
in the insulating regime. Here we would like to point out that (a) the observed
oscillation is an artifact of the method; (b) the TdDMRG can be significantly
improved by incorporating the non-equilibrium evolution of the goundstate into
the density matrix.Comment: 1 page, 2 figure
Co-community Structure in Time-varying Networks
In this report, we introduce the concept of co-community structure in
time-varying networks. We propose a novel optimization algorithm to rapidly
detect co-community structure in these networks. Both theoretical and numerical
results show that the proposed method not only can resolve detailed
co-communities, but also can effectively identify the dynamical phenomena in
these networks.Comment: 5 pages, 6 figure
Exotic mesons from quantum chromodynamics with improved gluon and quark actions on the anisotropic lattice
Hybrid (exotic) mesons, which are important predictions of quantum
chromodynamics (QCD), are states of quarks and anti-quarks bound by excited
gluons. First principle lattice study of such states would help us understand
the role of ``dynamical'' color in low energy QCD and provide valuable
information for experimental search for these new particles. In this paper, we
apply both improved gluon and quark actions to the hybrid mesons, which might
be much more efficient than the previous works in reducing lattice spacing
error and finite volume effect. Quenched simulations were done at
and on a anisotropic lattice using our PC cluster. We
obtain MeV for the mass of the hybrid meson
in the light quark sector, and Mev in the
charm quark sector; the mass splitting between the hybrid meson in the charm quark sector and the spin averaged S-wave charmonium mass
is estimated to be MeV. As a byproduct, we obtain MeV for the mass of a P-wave or
meson and MeV for the mass of a P-wave meson, which are comparable to their experimental value 1426 MeV for the
meson. The first error is statistical, and the second one is
systematical. The mixing of the hybrid meson with a four quark state is also
discussed.Comment: 12 pages, 3 figures. Published versio
Top Quark Rare Decays via Loop-Induced FCNC Interactions in Extended Mirror Fermion Model
Flavor changing neutral current (FCNC) interactions for a top quark
decays into with represents a neutral gauge or Higgs boson, and a
up- or charm-quark are highly suppressed in the Standard Model (SM) due to the
Glashow-Iliopoulos-Miami mechanism. Whilst current limits on the branching
ratios of these processes have been established at the order of from
the Large Hadron Collider experiments, SM predictions are at least nine orders
of magnitude below. In this work, we study some of these FCNC processes in the
context of an extended mirror fermion model, originally proposed to implement
the electroweak scale seesaw mechanism for non-sterile right-handed neutrinos.
We show that one can probe the process for a wide range of parameter
space with branching ratios varying from to , comparable
with various new physics models including the general two Higgs doublet model
with or without flavor violations at tree level, minimal supersymmetric
standard model with or without -parity, and extra dimension model.Comment: 30 pages, 8 figures, 2 tables and 1 appendix. Version to appear in

A new approach to upscaling fracture network models while preserving geostatistical and geomechanical characteristics
A new approach to upscaling two-dimensional fracture network models is proposed for preserving geostatistical and geomechanical characteristics of a smaller-scale “source” fracture pattern. First, the scaling properties of an outcrop system are examined in terms of spatial organization, lengths, connectivity, and normal/shear displacements using fractal geometry and power law relations. The fracture pattern is observed to be nonfractal with the fractal dimension D ≈ 2, while its length distribution tends to follow a power law with the exponent 2 < a < 3. To introduce a realistic distribution of fracture aperture and shear displacement, a geomechanical model using the combined finite-discrete element method captures the response of a fractured rock sample with a domain size L = 2 m under in situ stresses. Next, a novel scheme accommodating discrete-time random walks in recursive self-referencing lattices is developed to nucleate and propagate fractures together with their stress- and scale-dependent attributes into larger domains of up to 54 m × 54 m. The advantages of this approach include preserving the nonplanarity of natural cracks, capturing the existence of long fractures, retaining the realism of variable apertures, and respecting the stress dependency of displacement-length correlations. Hydraulic behavior of multiscale growth realizations is modeled by single-phase flow simulation, where distinct permeability scaling trends are observed for different geomechanical scenarios. A transition zone is identified where flow structure shifts from extremely channeled to distributed as the network scale increases. The results of this paper have implications for upscaling network characteristics for reservoir simulation
