Analytical calculation of matter effects in two mass-scale neutrino oscillations
We consider three active flavor neutrino oscillations where both the mass-square differences play a role in atmospheric neutrino problem. We calculate the matter effects arising due to propagation through earth. We demonstrate that these effects improve the fit to the electron data vis-a-vis vacuum oscillations but mak...

dS/CFT correspondence on a brane
We study branes moving in an AdS Schwarzschild black hole background. When the brane tension exceeds a critical value, the induced metric on the brane is of FRW type and asymptotically de Sitter. We discuss the relevance of such configurations to dS/CFT correspondence. When the black hole mass reaches a critical value ...

Spectrum of confining strings in SU(N) gauge theories
We study the spectrum of the confining strings in four-dimensional SU(N) gauge theories. We compute, for the SU(4) and SU(6) gauge theories formulated on a lattice, the string tensions sigma_k related to sources with Z_N charge k, using Monte Carlo simulations. Our results are consistent with the sine formula sigma_k/s...

A security proof of quantum cryptography based entirely on entanglement purification
We give a proof that entanglement purification, even with noisy apparatus, is sufficient to disentangle an eavesdropper (Eve) from the communication channel. In the security regime, the purification process factorises the overall initial state into a tensor-product state of Alice and Bob, on one side, and Eve on the ot...

The cosmic microwave background radiation temperature at z = 3.025 toward QSO 0347--3819
From the analysis of the CII fine-structure population ratio in the damped Ly_alpha system at z = 3.025 toward the quasar Q0347--3819 we derive an upper bound of 14.6 (+/- 0.2) K on the cosmic microwave background temperature regardless the presence of other different excitation mechanisms. The analysis of the ground s...

Distinguishing separable and entangled states

The simplest of these tests corresponds to the well-known Peres-Horodecki positive partial transpose (PPT) criterion, and the more complicated tests are strictly stronger. The new criteria are tractable due ...

The coarea formula for Sobolev mappings
We extend Federer's coarea formula to mappings $f$ belonging to the Sobolev class $W^{1,p}(R^n;R^m)$, $1 \le m < n$, $p>m$, and more generally, to mappings with gradient in the Lorentz space $L^{m,1}(R^n)$. This is accomplished by showing that the graph of $f$ in $R^{n+m}$ is a Hausdorff $n$-rectifiable set.

Regularity of finite-dimensional realizations for Evolution Equations
We show that a continuous local semiflow of $C^k$-maps on a finite-dimensional $C^k$-manifold M can be embedded into a local $C^k$-flow on M under some weak (necessary) assumptions. This result is applied to an open problem in [fil/tei:01]. We prove that finite-dimensional realizations for interest rate models are high...

Interacting Dark Matter disguised as Warm Dark Matter
We explore some of the consequences of Dark Matter-photon interactions on structure formation, focusing on the evolution of cosmological perturbations and performing both an analytical and a numerical study. We compute the cosmic microwave background anisotropies and matter power spectrum in this class of models. We fi...

Conformal Vacua and Entropy in de Sitter Space
The dS/CFT correspondence is illuminated through an analysis of massive scalar field theory in d-dimensional de Sitter space. We consider a one-parameter family of dS-invariant vacua related by Bogolyubov transformations and compute the corresponding Green functions. It is shown that none of these Green functions corre...

Monte Carlo Tests of SLE Predictions for the 2D Self-Avoiding Walk
The conjecture that the scaling limit of the two-dimensional self-avoiding walk (SAW) in a half plane is given by the stochastic Loewner evolution (SLE) with $\kappa=8/3$ leads to explicit predictions about the SAW. A remarkable feature of these predictions is that they yield not just critical exponents, but probabilit...

Multi-Trace Operators, Boundary Conditions, And AdS/CFT Correspondence
We argue that multi-trace interactions in quantum field theory on the boundary of AdS space can be incorporated in the AdS/CFT correspondence by using a more general boundary condition for the bulk fields than has been considered hitherto. We illustrate the procedure for a renormalizable four-dimensional field theory w...

Hitting properties of a random string
We consider Funaki's model of a random string taking values in R^d. It is specified by the following stochastic PDE, du = u_{xx} + W, where W=W(x,t) is two-parameter white noise, also taking values in R^d. We study hitting properties, double points, and recurrence. The main difficulty is that the process has the Markov...

Do Type Ia Supernovae prove Lambda > 0 ?
The evidence for positive cosmological constant $\Lambda$ from Type Ia supernovae is reexamined. Both high redshift supernova teams are found to underestimate the effects of host galaxy extinction. The evidence for an absolute magnitude- decay time relation is much weakened if supernovae not observed before maximum lig...

Obscuring Material around Seyfert Nuclei with Starbursts
The structure of obscuring matter in the environment of active galactic nuclei with associated nuclear starbursts is investigated using 3-D hydrodynamical simulations. Simple analytical estimates suggest that the obscuring matter with energy feedback from supernovae has a torus-like structure with a radius of several t...

The runaway growth of intermediate-mass black holes in dense star clusters
We study the growth rate of stars via stellar collisions in dense star clusters, calibrating our analytic calculations with direct N-body simulations of up to 65536 stars, performed on the GRAPE family of special-purpose computers. We find that star clusters with initial half-mass relaxation times of about 25 Myr are d...

Two-component Bose-Einstein Condensates with Large Number of Vortices
We consider the condensate wavefunction of a rapidly rotating two-component Bose gas with an equal number of particles in each component. If the interactions between like and unlike species are very similar (as occurs for two hyperfine states of $^{87}$Rb or $^{23}$Na) we find that the two components contain identical ...

Quantum mechanics on noncommutative plane and sphere from constrained systems
It is shown that quantum mechanics on noncommutative (NC) spaces can be obtained by canonical quantization of some underlying constrained systems. Noncommutative geometry arises after taking into account the second class constraints presented in the models. It leads, in particular, to a possibility of quantization in t...

The Dipole Formalism for Next-to-Leading Order QCD Calculations with Massive Partons
The dipole subtraction method for calculating next-to-leading order corrections in QCD was originally only formulated for massless partons. In this paper we extend its definition to include massive partons, namely quarks, squarks and gluinos. We pay particular attention to the quasi-collinear region, which gives rise t...

The Vapnik-Chervonenkis dimension of a set K in R^n is the maximal dimension of the coordinate cube of a given size, which can be found in coordinate projections of K. We show that the VC dimension of a convex body governs its entropy. This has a number of consequences, including the optimal Elton's theorem and a unifo...

The metal line profiles of different ions observed in high HI column density systems [N(HI) > 10^{16} cm^{-2}] in quasar spectra can be used to constrain the ionization structure and kinematic characteristics of the absorbers.
