A tropical morphism related to the hyperplane arrangement of the complete bipartite graph
We undertake a combinatorial study of the piecewise linear map g : R^{2m+2n} --> R^{mn} which assigns to the four vectors a, A in R^m and b, B in R^n the m by n matrix given by g_{ij} = min (a_i + b_j, A_i+B_j). This map arises naturally in Pachter and Sturmfels's work on the tropical geometry of statistical models. Th...

Modeling Interactome: Scale-Free or Geometric?
Networks have been used to model many real-world phenomena to better understand the phenomena and to guide experiments in order to predict their behavior. Since incorrect models lead to incorrect predictions, it is vital to have a correct model. As a result, new techniques and models for analyzing and modeling real-wor...

Conformal Field Theory and Torsion Elements of the Bloch Group
We argue that rational conformally invariant quantum field theories in two dimensions are closely related to torsion elements of the algebraic K-theory group K_3(C). If such a theory has an integrable matrix perturbation with purely elastic scattering matrix, then the partition function has a canonical sum representati...

Asymptotic Improvement of the Gilbert-Varshamov Bound on the Size of Binary Codes
Given positive integers $n$ and $d$, let $A_2(n,d)$ denote the maximum size of a binary code of length $n$ and minimum distance $d$. The well-known Gilbert-Varshamov bound asserts that $A_2(n,d) \geq 2^n/V(n,d-1)$, where $V(n,d) = \sum_{i=0}^{d} {n \choose i}$ is the volume of a Hamming sphere of radius $d$. We show th...

Observation and Properties of the X(3872) Decaying to J/psi pi+ pi- in p-p(bar) Collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV
We report the observation of the X(3872) in the J/psi pi+pi- channel, with J/psi decaying to mu+mu- in p-p(bar) collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV. Using approximately 230 pb^-1 of data collected with the Run II D0 detector, we observe 522 +/- 100 X(3872) candidates. The mass difference between the X(3872) state and the ...

In principle this approach allows an alternative interpretation and formulation of General Relativity Theory (GRT), with distinct i) physical con...

Discovery of kilogauss magnetic fields in three DA white dwarfs
We have detected longitudinal magnetic fields between 2 and 4 kG in three (WD 0446$-$790, WD 1105$-$048, WD 2359$-$434) out of a sample of 12 normal DA white dwarfs by using optical spectropolarimetry done with the VLT Antu 8 m telescope equipped with FORS1. With the exception of 40 Eri B (4 kG) these are the first pos...

Gas Density, Stability, and Starbursts Near the Inner Lindblad Resonance of the Milky Way
A key project of the Antarctic Submillimeter Telescope and Remote Observatory (AST/RO) reported by Martin et al. (2004) is the mapping of CO J=4-3 and J=7-6 emission from the inner Milky Way, allowing determination of gas density and temperature. Galactic center gas that Binney et al. (1991) identify as being on x_2 or...

Fermion polarization in sfermion decays as a probe of CP phases in the MSSM
The longitudinal polarization of fermions (tops and taus) produced in sfermion decays to neutralinos or charginos can be a useful tool for the determination of SUSY parameters. We discuss this fermion polarization in the context of the MSSM with complex parameters. We show that the dependence on CP-violating phases can...

Free energy in the generalized Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean field model
Recently Michel Talagrand gave a rigorous proof of the Parisi formula in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model. In this paper we build upon the methodology developed by Talagrand and extend his result to the class of SK type models in which the spins have arbitrary prior distribution on a bounded subset of the real line.

Adiabatic Quantum Computation is Equivalent to Standard Quantum Computation
Adiabatic quantum computation has recently attracted attention in the physics and computer science communities, but its computational power was unknown. We describe an efficient adiabatic simulation of any given quantum algorithm, which implies that the adiabatic computation model and the conventional quantum computati...

Empirical margin distributions and bounding the generalization error of combined classifiers
We prove new probabilistic upper bounds on generalization error of complex classifiers that are combinations of simple classifiers. Such combinations could be implemented by neural networks or by voting methods of combining the classifiers, such as boosting and bagging. The bounds are in terms of the empirical distribu...

Some Local Measures of Complexity of Convex Hulls and Generalization Bounds
We investigate measures of complexity of function classes based on continuity moduli of Gaussian and Rademacher processes. For Gaussian processes, we obtain bounds on the continuity modulus on the convex hull of a function class in terms of the same quantity for the class itself. We also obtain new bounds on generaliza...

Entanglement Entropy and Quantum Field Theory

This is defined as the von Neumann entropy S_A=-Tr rho_A log rho_A corresponding to the reduced density matrix rho_A of a subsystem A. For the case of a 1+1-dimensional critical system, whose continuum limit is a conformal fie...

We present and analyse spectra of the Type IIn supernova 1994W obtained between 18 and 203 days after explosion. During the luminous phase (first 100 d) the line profiles are composed of three major components: (i) narrow P-Cygni lines with the absorption minima at -700 km/s; (ii) broad emission lines with BVZI ~4000 k...

The p-star model or exponential random graph is among the oldest and best-known of network models. Here we give an analytic solution for the particular case of the 2-star model, which is one of the most fundamental of exponential random graphs. We derive expressions for a number of quantities of interest in the model a...

The Parkes multibeam pulsar survey has led to the discovery of more than 700 pulsars. In this paper, we provide timing solutions, flux densities and pulse profiles for 180 of these new discoveries. Two pulsars, PSRs J1736-2843 and J1847-0130 have rotational periods P > 6s and are therefore among the slowest rotating ra...

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety, defined over the rationals. This paper gives upper bounds for the number of rational points on $X$, with height at most $B$, for the case in which $X$ is a curve or a surface. In the latter case one excludes from the counting function those points that lie on lines in the surface. The b...

Given a blackbox for f, a smooth real scalar function of d real variables, one wants to estimate the gradient of f at a given point with n bits of precision.
