The finite-temperature thermodynamics of a trapped unitary Fermi gas within fractional exclusion statistics
We utilize a fractional exclusion statistics of Haldane and Wu hypothesis to
study the thermodynamics of a unitary Fermi gas trapped in a harmonic
oscillator potential at ultra-low finite temperature. The entropy per particle
as a function of the energy per particle and energy per particle versus
rescaled temperature are numerically compared with the experimental data. The
study shows that, except the chemical potential behavior, there exists a
reasonable consistency between the experimental measurement and theoretical
attempt for the entropy and energy per particle. In the fractional exclusion
statistics formalism, the behavior of the isochore heat capacity for a trapped
unitary Fermi gas is also analyzed.Comment: 6 pages, 6 figure
Local Regularization Assisted Orthogonal Least Squares Regression
A locally regularized orthogonal least squares (LROLS) algorithm is proposed for constructing parsimonious or sparse regression models that generalize well. By associating each orthogonal weight in the regression model with an individual regularization parameter, the ability for the orthogonal least squares (OLS) model selection to produce a very sparse model with good generalization performance is greatly enhanced. Furthermore, with the assistance of local regularization, when to terminate the model selection procedure becomes much clearer. This LROLS algorithm has computational advantages over the recently introduced relevance vector machine (RVM) method
Gibbsian Hypothesis in Turbulence
We show that Kolmogorov multipliers in turbulence cannot be statistically
independent of others at adjacent scales (or even a finite range apart) by
numerical simulation of a shell model and by theory. As the simplest
generalization of independent distributions, we suppose that the steady-state
statistics of multipliers in the shell model are given by a
translation-invariant Gibbs measure with a short-range potential, when
expressed in terms of suitable ``spin'' variables: real-valued spins that are
logarithms of multipliers and XY-spins defined by local dynamical phases.
Numerical evidence is presented in favor of the hypothesis for the shell model,
in particular novel scaling laws and derivative relations predicted by the
existence of a thermodynamic limit. The Gibbs measure appears to be in a
high-temperature, unique-phase regime with ``paramagnetic'' spin order.Comment: 19 pages, 9 figures, greatly expanded content, accepted to appear in

On multi-user EXIT chart analysis aided turbo-detected MBER beamforming designs
AbstractāThis paper studies the mutual information transfer characteristics of a novel iterative soft interference cancellation (SIC) aided beamforming receiver communicating over both additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and multipath slow fading channels. Based on the extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) chart technique, we investigate the convergence behavior of an iterative minimum bit error rate (MBER) multiuser detection (MUD) scheme as a function of both the system parameters and channel conditions in comparison to the SIC aided minimum mean square error (SIC-MMSE) MUD. Our simulation results show that the EXIT chart analysis is sufficiently accurate for the MBER MUD. Quantitatively, a two-antenna system was capable of supporting up to K=6 users at Eb/N0=3dB, even when their angular separation was relatively low, potentially below 20?.

The implication of the hyperbolic discount model for annuitisation decisions
The low demand for immediate annuities at retirement has been a long-standing puzzle. We show that a hyperbolic discount model can explain this behaviour and results in the attractiveness of long-term deferred annuities. With a set of benchmark assumptions, we find that retirees would be willing to pay a much higher price than the actuarial fair price for annuities with longer deferred periods. Moreover, if governments were to introduce a pre-commitment device which requires pensioners to make annuitisation decisions around ten years before retirement, the take up rate of annuities could become higher
