Structural and Photometric Classification of Galaxies - I. Calibration Based on a Nearby Galaxy Sample
In this paper we define an observationally robust, multi-parameter space for the classification of nearby and distant galaxies. The parameters include luminosity, color, and the image-structure parameters: size, image concentration, asymmetry, and surface brightness. Based on an initial calibration of this parameter sp...

Multi-valued Logic Gates for Quantum Computation
We develop a multi-valued logic for quantum computing for use in multi-level quantum systems, and discuss the practical advantages of this approach for scaling up a quantum computer. Generalizing the methods of binary quantum logic, we establish that arbitrary unitary operations on any number of d-level systems (d > 2)...

Foundations of Dissipative Particle Dynamics
We derive a mesoscopic modeling and simulation technique that is very close to the technique known as dissipative particle dynamics. The model is derived from molecular dynamics by means of a systematic coarse-graining procedure. Thus the rules governing our new form of dissipative particle dynamics reflect the underly...

The thermodynamic cost of reliability and low temperatures: Tightening Landauer's principle and the Second Law

We generalize a theorem by Francois Fages that describes the relationship between the completion semantics and the answer set semantics for logic programs with negation as failure. The study of this relationship is important in connection with the emergence of answer set programming. Whenever the two semantics are equi...

This process naturally provides us with a Lax representation of the flows, which ...

In particular, it reproduces the observed trend that longer period modes have larger am...

Phase space observables and isotypic spaces
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the set of Neumark projections of a countable set of phase space observable to constitute a resolution of the identity, and we give a criteria for a phase space observable to be informationally complete. The results will be applied to the phase space observables arising f...

Collective Spin Fluctuation Mode and Raman Scattering in Superconducting Cuprates
Although the low frequency electronic Raman response in the superconducting state of the cuprates can be largely understood in terms of a d-wave energy gap, a long standing problem has been an explanation for the spectra observed in the $A_{1g}$ polarization orientations. We present calculations which suggest that the ...

Identification of A-colored Stars and Structure in the Halo of the Milky Way from SDSS Commissioning Data
A sample of 4208 objects with magnitude 15 < g* < 22 and colors of main sequence A stars has been selected from 370 square degrees of Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) commissioning observations. The data is from two long, narrow stripes, each with an opening angle of greater than 60 deg, at Galactic latitudes 36 < abs(b...

Scaling and Persistence in the Two-Dimensional Ising Model
The spatial distribution of persistent spins at zero-temperature in the pure two-dimensional Ising model is investigated numerically. A persistence correlation length, $\xi (t)\sim t^Z$ is identified such that for length scales $r<<\xi (t)$ the persistent spins form a fractal with dimension $d_f$; for length scales $r>...

Persistent entanglement in arrays of interacting particles
We study the entanglement properties of a class of $N$ qubit quantum states that are generated in arrays of qubits with an Ising-type interaction. These states contain a large amount of entanglement as given by their Schmidt measure. They have also a high {\em persistency of entanglement} which means that $\sim N/2$ qu...

Anomalous field-dependent specific heat in charge-ordered Pr$_{1-x}$Ca$_x$MnO$_3$ and La$_{0.5}$Ca$_{0.5}$MnO$_3$
We report low temperature specific heat measurements of Pr$_{1-x}$Ca$_{x}$MnO$_{3}$ ($0.3\leq x \leq 0.5$) and La$_{0.5}$Ca$_{0.5}$MnO$_{3}$ with and without applied magnetic field. An excess specific heat, $C^{\prime}(T)$, of non-magnetic origin associated with charge ordering is found for all the samples. A magnetic ...

Loop-erased walks and total positivity
We consider matrices whose elements enumerate weights of walks in planar directed weighted graphs (not necessarily acyclic). These matrices are totally nonnegative; more precisely, all their minors are formal power series in edge weights with nonnegative coefficients. A combinatorial explanation of this phenomenon invo...

The Consistent Newtonian Limit of Einstein's Gravity with a Cosmological Constant
We derive the `exact' Newtonian limit of general relativity with a positive cosmological constant $\Lambda$. We point out that in contrast to the case with $\Lambda = 0 $, the presence of a positive $\Lambda$ in Einsteins's equations enforces, via the condition $| \Phi | \ll 1$, on the potential $\Phi$, a range ${\cal ...

Deciding first-order properties of locally tree-decomposable structures
We introduce the concept of a class of graphs, or more generally, relational structures, being locally tree-decomposable. There are numerous examples of locally tree-decomposable classes, among them the class of planar graphs and all classes of bounded valence or of bounded tree-width. We also consider a slightly more ...

During our numerical calculation the partic...
