Calculations of the Structure of Basin Volumes for Mechanically Stable Packings
S. S. Ashwin, J. Blawzdziewicz, C. S. O'Hern +1
There are a finite number of distinct mechanically stable (MS) packings in model granular systems composed of frictionless spherical grains. For typical packing-generation protocol…
Strong contraction of the representations of the three dimensional Lie algebras
E. M. Subag, E. M. Baruch, J. L. Birman +1
For any Inonu-Wigner contraction of a three dimensional Lie algebra we construct the corresponding contractions of representations. Our method is quite canonical in the sense that…
Fluids, Anomalies and the Chiral Magnetic Effect: A Group-theoretic Formulation
V. P. Nair, Rashmi Ray, Shubho Roy
It is possible to formulate fluid dynamics in terms of group-valued variables. This is particularly suited to the cases where the fluid has nonabelian charges and is coupled to non…
The Krohn-Rhodes Theorem and Local Divisors
Volker Diekert, Manfred Kufleitner, Benjamin Steinberg
We give a new proof of the Krohn-Rhodes Theorem using local divisors. The proof provides nearly as good a decomposition in terms of size as the holonomy decomposition of Eilenberg,…
Critical Behavior of a Strongly Interacting 2D Electron System
A. Mokashi, S. Li, Bo Wen +4
With decreasing density the thermopower of a low-disorder 2D electron system in silicon is found to exhibit a sharp increase by more than an order of magnitude, tending t…
Probing the connections between superconductivity, stripe order, and structure in La1.905Ba0.095Cu1-yZnyO4
Jinsheng Wen, Zhijun Xu, Guangyong Xu +11
The superconducting system La2-xBaxCuO4 is known to show a minimum in the transition temperature, Tc, at x = 1/8 where maximal stripe order is pinned by the anisotropy within the C…
Quantum lifetime of 2D electron in magnetic field
Scott Dietrich, S. A. Vitkalov, D. V. Dmitriev +1
The lifetime of two dimensional electrons in GaAs quantum wells, placed in weak quantizing magnetic fields, is measured using a simple transport method in broad range of temperatur…
Rotating frame spin dynamics of a Nitrogen-Vacancy center in a diamond nanocrystal
Abdelghani Laraoui, Carlos A. Meriles
We investigate the spin dynamics of a Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) center contained in an individual diamond nanocrystal in the presence of continuous microwave excitation. Upon periodic…
Topological Transitions in Metamaterials
Harish N. S. Krishnamoorthy, Zubin Jacob, Evgenii Narimanov +2
The ideas of mathematical topology play an important role in many aspects of modern physics - from phase transitions to field theory to nonlinear dynamics (Nakahara M (2003) in Geo…
The Quantum Effective Action, Wave Functions and Yang-Mills (2+1)
V. P. Nair
We explore the relationship between the quantum effective action and the ground state (and excited state) wave functions of a field theory. Applied to the Yang-Mills theory in 2+1…
Fuzzy spaces and new random matrix ensembles
V. P. Nair, A. P. Polychronakos, J. Tekel
We analyze the expectation value of observables in a scalar theory on the fuzzy two sphere, represented as a generalized hermitian matrix model. We calculate explicitly the form of…
Another Veech Triangle
W. Patrick Hooper
We show that the triangle with angles Pi/12, Pi/3 and 7*Pi/12 has the lattice property and compute this triangle's Veech group.
The automorphism group of Thompson's group F: subgroups and metric properties
Sean Cleary, José Burillo
We describe some of the geometric properties of the automorphism group Aut(F) of Thompson's group F. We give realizations of Aut(F) geometrically via periodic tree pair diagrams, w…
Any Classical Description of Nature Requires Classical Electromagnetic Zero-Point Radiation
Timothy H. Boyer
Any attempt to describe nature within classical physics requires the presence of Lorentz-invariant classical electromagnetic zero-point radiation so as to account for the Casimir f…
The Blackbody Radiation Spectrum Follows from Zero-Point Radiation and the Structure of Relativistic Spacetime in Classical Physics
Timothy H. Boyer
The analysis of this article is entirely within classical physics. Any attempt to describe nature within classical physics requires the presence of Lorentz-invariant classical elec…
Effective dimension of finite semigroups
Volodymyr Mazorchuk, Benjamin Steinberg
In this paper we discuss various aspects of the problem of determining the minimal dimension of an injective linear representation of a finite semigroup over a field. We outline so…
Erdos-Szekeres-type theorems for monotone paths and convex bodies
Jacob Fox, Janos Pach, Benny Sudakov +1
For any sequence of positive integers j_1 < j_2 < ... < j_n, the k-tuples (j_i,j_{i + 1},...,j_{i + k-1}), i=1, 2,..., n - k+1, are said to form a monotone path of length n. Given…
Renormalization of Polygon Exchange Maps arising from Corner Percolation
W. Patrick Hooper
We describe a 2 parameter family of polygon exchange transformations parameterized by points in a square. Whenever the two parameters are irrational, the polygon exchange has perio…
Double Catalan monoids
Volodymyr Mazorchuk, Benjamin Steinberg
In this paper we define and study what we call the double Catalan monoid. This monoid is the image of a natural map from the 0-Hecke monoid to the monoid of binary relations. We sh…
The diamond Nitrogen-Vacancy center as a probe of random fluctuations in a nuclear spin ensemble
Abdelghani Laraoui, Jonathan S. Hodges, Colm Ryan +1
New schemes that exploit the unique properties of Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) centers in diamond are presently being explored as a platform for high-resolution magnetic sensing. Here we…
Recursive spectra of strongly minimal theories satisfying the Zilber trichotomy
Uri Andrews, Alice Medvedev
We conjecture that for a strongly minimal theory T in a finite signature satisfying the Zilber Trichotomy, there are only three possibilities for the recursive spectrum of T: all c…
The geometry of blueprints. Part I: Algebraic background and scheme theory
Oliver Lorscheid
In this paper, we introduce the category of blueprints, which is a category of algebraic objects that include both commutative (semi)rings and commutative monoids. This generalizat…
Calculation of the Voronoi boundary for lens-shaped particles and spherocylinders
Louis Portal, Maximilien Danisch, Adrian Baule +2
We have recently developed a mean-field theory to estimate the packing fraction of non-spherical particles [A. Baule et al., Nature Commun. (2013)]. The central quantity in this fr…
A small-world of weak ties provides optimal global integration of self-similar modules in functional brain networks
Lazaros K. Gallos, Hernan A. Makse, Mariano Sigman
The human brain is organized in functional modules. Such an organization presents a basic conundrum: modules ought to be sufficiently independent to guarantee functional specializa…
