On gravitational wave-Cherenkov radiation from photons when passing through diffused dark matters
Analogy to Cherenkov radiation, when a particle moves faster than the
propagation velocity of gravitational wave in matter (), we
expect gravitational wave-Cherenkov radiation (GWCR). In the situation that a
photon travels across diffuse dark matters, the GWCR condition is always
satisfied, photon will thence loss its energy all the path. This effect is long
been ignored in the practice of astrophysics and cosmology, without
justification with serious calculation. We study this effect for the first
time, and shows that this energy loss time of the photon is far longer than the
Hubble time, therefore justify the practice of ignoring this effect in
astrophysics context.Comment: 3 pages; We add a citation to Caves (1980) to the original journal

Nonnegative Tensor Factorization, Completely Positive Tensors and an Hierarchical Elimination Algorithm
Nonnegative tensor factorization has applications in statistics, computer
vision, exploratory multiway data analysis and blind source separation. A
symmetric nonnegative tensor, which has a symmetric nonnegative factorization,
is called a completely positive (CP) tensor. The H-eigenvalues of a CP tensor
are always nonnegative. When the order is even, the Z-eigenvalue of a CP tensor
are all nonnegative. When the order is odd, a Z-eigenvector associated with a
positive (negative) Z-eigenvalue of a CP tensor is always nonnegative
(nonpositive). The entries of a CP tensor obey some dominance properties. The
CP tensor cone and the copositive tensor cone of the same order are dual to
each other. We introduce strongly symmetric tensors and show that a symmetric
tensor has a symmetric binary decomposition if and only if it is strongly
symmetric. Then we show that a strongly symmetric, hierarchically dominated
nonnegative tensor is a CP tensor, and present a hierarchical elimination
algorithm for checking this. Numerical examples are also given
Control of DFIG based wind generation systems under unbalanced network supply
This paper develops a dynamic model and control scheme for DFIG systems to improve the performance and stability under unbalanced grid conditions. A dynamic DFIG model containing the positive and negative sequence components is presented using stator voltage orientation. The proposed model accurately illustrates the active power, reactive power and torque oscillations, and provides a basis for DFIG control system design during unbalanced network supply. Various control targets such as eliminating the oscillations of the torque, active/reactive power are discussed and the required rotor negative sequence current for fulfilling different control targets are described. Performance of a DFIG-based wind turbine under unbalanced condition using the proposed control method is evaluated by simulation studies using Matlab/Simulink. The proposed control scheme significantly attenuates the DFIG torque or active power oscillations during network unbalance whereas significant torque/power oscillations exist with the conventional control schemes
