    Goldstone Modes in Renormalizable Supersymmetric SO(10) Model

    Full text link
    We solve the Goldstone modes in the renormalizable SUSY SO(10) model with general couplings. The Goldstones are expressed by the Vacuum Expectation Values and the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients of relevant symmetries without explicit dependence on the parameters of the model.Comment: 27 pages.

    Optimal Quantization in Energy-Constrained Sensor Networks under Imperfect Transmission

    Get PDF
    This paper addresses the optimization of quantization at local sensors under strict energy constraint and imperfect transmission to improve the reconstruction performance at the fusion center in the wireless sensor networks (WSNs). We present optimized quantization scheme including the optimal quantization bit rate and the optimal transmission power allocation among quantization bits for BPSK signal and binary orthogonal signal with envelope detection, respectively. The optimization of the quantization is formulated as a convex problem and the optimal solution is derived analytically in both cases. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed quantization schemes

    Goldstone Modes and Clebsch-Gordan Coefficients

    Full text link
    We solve explicitly the Goldstone modes in spontaneously symmetry breaking models with supersymmetry. We find that, when more than one fields or representations contribute to the symmetry breaking, there exist identities among the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients which can be used as consistent checks on the calculations.Comment: 13 page

    The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C10H12N2O3·2H2O, contains two organic mol­ecules with similar conformations and four water mol­ecules. Each organic mol­ecule is close to planar (r.m.s. deviations = 0.035 and 0.108 Å) and adopts a trans conformation with respect to its C=N bond. In the crystal, the components are linked into a three-dimensional network by N—H⋯O, O—H⋯O, O—H⋯N and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, some of which are bifurcated. An R 2 2(8) loop occurs between adjacent organic mol­ecules

    Symmetries and Lie algebra of the differential-difference Kadomstev-Petviashvili hierarchy

    Full text link
    By introducing suitable non-isospectral flows we construct two sets of symmetries for the isospectral differential-difference Kadomstev-Petviashvili hierarchy. The symmetries form an infinite dimensional Lie algebra.Comment: 9 page

    AbstractThis study assessed the relationship between low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels on admission and the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with acute ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (ASTEMI). Patients with ASTEMI who had a lipid profile tested within 24 hours of symptom onset were enrolled. They were stratified into high and low LDL-C groups according to whether their LDL-C was above (n = 501) or below (n = 575) the median level, respectively. The incidence of MACE, cardiovascular death, non-fatal MI, revascularization, and stroke was compared between the groups at 1 month, 6 months, and 1 year. Survival analysis and Cox proportional hazard analysis were performed. In-hospital use of beta blockers was better in the high than in the low LDL-C group (76.6% vs. 69.7%, p = 0.01). Statin use was significantly higher in the high than in the low LDL-C group during follow-up (86.8% vs. 80.0%, p = 0.003 at1 month; 71.6% vs. 62.4%, p = 0.002 at 6 months; 67.8% vs. 61.2%, p = 0.03 at 1 year). The incidence of MACE on follow-up at 1 month was higher in the low than in the high LDL-C group (12.0% vs. 8.1%, p = 0.04). At 1 year, survival was not significantly different between the groups. Cox proportional hazards analysis indicated that the incidence of MACE was significantly associated with hypertension, current smoking, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), in-hospital use of beta blockers, and statin use on follow-up (p < 0.01). LDL-C levels on admission in patients with ASTEMI had no significant effect on the 6-month and 1-year incidence of MACE, but the incidence of MACE was significantly higher in the low LDL-C group at 1 month. It would be relevant to further investigate the HDL-C level on admission, in-hospital use of beta blockers, and statin use during follow-up in relation to MACE

    Measuring sustainability:Development and application of the Inclusive Wealth Index in China

    Get PDF
    It is increasingly common to use the Inclusive Wealth Index (IWI) to evaluate national sustainability; however, IWI's highly aggregated components and limited regional cases restrict its further application in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This study extends the traditional three-component IWI framework into six disaggregated components, namely male/female human capital, advanced/ordinary produced capital, and renewable/non-renewable natural capital. We apply the modified framework to China and evaluate the sustainability performance at the provincial level. The results show that China continues to develop with an annual IWI per capita increase rate of 2.3%. Gender inequality is found to hinder the growth of IWI, whereas advanced product features benefit the growth of IWI. The results also suggest significant heterogeneity in provincial IWI primarily due to differences in economic development stages, geographic locations, and uneven IWI growth. IWI growth is largely driven by wealth accumulation resulting from human capital and advanced produced capital. In contrast, insufficient IWI growth is caused by a substantial amount of ordinary produced capital or a continued decline in natural capital. The study provides a basis for tracking progress toward the SDGs and measuring the heterogeneity of regional socio-economic development in China
