Canonical Formulation of A Bosonic Matter Field in 1+1 Dimensional Curved Space

R. N. Ghalati, D. G. C. McKeon, T. N. Sherry

We study a Bosonic scalar in 1+1 dimensional curved space that is coupled to a dynamical metric field. This metric, along with the affine connection, also appears in the Einstein-H…

The Virasoro Algebra and Some Exceptional Lie and Finite Groups

Michael P. Tuite

We describe a number of relationships between properties of the vacuum Verma module of a Virasoro algebra and the automorphism group of certain vertex operator algebras. These grou…

Evidence of Precession of the White Dwarf in Cataclysmic Variables

G. Tovmassian, S. Zharikov, V. Neustroev

Cataclysmic Variables (CV) are close binary systems, in which the primary, the more massive star, is a white dwarf. CVs usually exhibit a number of periodicities, most of which are…

Nonstationary Increments, Scaling Distributions, and Variable Diffusion Processes in Financial Markets

Kevin E. Bassler, Joseph L. McCauley, Gemunu H. Gunaratne

Arguably the most important problem in quantitative finance is to understand the nature of stochastic processes that underlie market dynamics. One aspect of the solution to this pr…

Short time scale pulse stability of the Crab pulsar in the optical band

S. Karpov, G. Beskin, A. Biryukov +4

The fine structure and the variations of the optical pulse shape and phase of the Crab pulsar are studied on various time scales. The observations have been carried out on 4-m Will…

Hurst Exponents, Markov Processes, and Fractional Brownian motion

Joseph L. McCauley, Gemunu H. Gunaratne, Kevin E. Bassler

There is much confusion in the literature over Hurst exponents. Recently, we took a step in the direction of eliminating some of the confusion. One purpose of this paper is to illu…

Rotational Modulation of the Radio Emission from the M9 Dwarf TVLM 513-46546: Broadband Coherent Emission at the Substellar Boundary?

G. Hallinan, A. Antonova, J. G. Doyle +3

The Very Large Array was used to observe the ultracool, rapidly rotating M9 dwarf TVLM 513-46546 simultaneously at 4.88 GHz and 8.44 GHz. The radio emission was determined to be pe…

Martingale Option Pricing

J. L. McCauley, G. H. Gunaratne, K. E. Bassler

We show that our generalization of the Black-Scholes partial differential equation (pde) for nontrivial diffusion coefficients is equivalent to a Martingale in the risk neutral dis…

Markov Processes, Hurst Exponents, and Nonlinear Diffusion Equations with application to finance

Kevin E. Bassler, Gemunu H. Gunaratne, Joseph L. McCauley

We show by explicit closed form calculations that a Hurst exponent H that is not 1/2 does not necessarily imply long time correlations like those found in fractional Brownian motio…
