Reversible addition circuit using one ancillary bit with application to quantum computing
Most of the work on implementing arithmetic on a quantum computer has borrowed from results in classical reversible computing (e.g. [VBE95], [BBF02], [DKR04]). These quantum networks are inherently classical, as they can be implemented with only the Toffoli gate. Draper [D00] has proposed an inherently "quantum" networ...

Search for Supersymmetry with Gauge-Mediated Breaking in Diphoton Events at D0
We report the results of a search for supersymmetry (SUSY) with gauge-mediated breaking in the missing transverse energy distribution of inclusive diphoton events using 263 pb$^{-1}$ of data collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider in 2002--2004. No excess is observed above the background expect...

For the lightest MSSM Higgs boson mass, m_h, we list the current status of the intrinsic uncertainties (due to unknown higher-order corrections) and the parametric uncertainties (due to the imperfect experime...

Our cluster sample spans a factor of 70 in mass, making it sensitive to cluster mass related trends. We study the correlations between ...

A lower bound for the chemical distance in sparse long-range percolation models
We consider long-range percolation in dimension $d\geq 1$, where distinct sites $x$ and $y$ are connected with probability $p_{x,y}\in[0,1]$. Assuming that $p_{x,y}$ is translation invariant and that $p_{x,y}=\|x-y\|^{-s+o(1)}$ with $s>2d$, we show that the graph distance is at least linear with the Euclidean distance.

Equality of the bulk and edge Hall conductances in a mobility gap
We consider the edge and bulk conductances for 2D quantum Hall systems in which the Fermi energy falls in a band where bulk states are localized. We show that the resulting quantities are equal, when appropriately defined. An appropriate definition of the edge conductance may be obtained through a suitable time averagi...

We study classical dynamics of a probe Dp-brane moving in a background sourced by a stack of Dp-branes.

Black holes in galaxy mergers: The formation of red elliptical galaxies
We use hydrodynamical simulations to study the color transformations induced by star formation and active galactic nuclei (AGN) during major mergers of spiral galaxies. Our modeling accounts for radiative cooling, star formation, and supernova feedback. Moreover, we include a treatment of accretion onto supermassive bl...

Fermions without fermi fields
It is shown that an arbitrary Fermion hopping hamiltonian can be represented by a system with no fermion fields, generalising earlier results by M. Levin & X.G. Wen [Phys Rev B 67, 245316 (2003)]. All the operators in the hamiltonian of resulting description obey the principle of locality, that operators associated wit...

Does the coframe geometry can serve as a unification scheme?
The coframe field model is known as a viable model for gravity. The principle problem is an interpretation of six additionaldegrees of freedom. We construct a general family of connections which includes the connections of Levi-Civita and Weitzenb\"{o}ck as the limiting cases. We show that for a special choice of param...

We study the set of isomorphism classes of principal polarizations on abelian varieties of GL2-type. As applications of our results, we construct examples of curves C, C'/\Q of genus two which are nonisomorphic over \bar \Q and share isomorphic unpolarized modular Jacobian varieties over \Q ; we also show a method to o...

Fifty years after Ed Salpeter's seminal paper, tremendous progress both on the observational and theoretical sides allow a fairly accurate determination of the Galactic IMF not only down to the hydrogen-burning limit but into the brown dwarf domain. The present review includes the most recent observations of low-mass s...

We investigate a two-dimensional classical $-vector model with a generic nearest-neighbor interaction $W(\bsigma_i\cdot \bsigma_j)$ in the large-N limit, focusing on the finite-temperature transition point at which energy-energy correlations become critical. We show that this transition belongs to the Ising universalit...

On error bounds for monotone approximation schemes for multi-dimensional Isaacs equations
Recently, Krylov, Barles, and Jakobsen developed the theory for estimating errors of monotone approximation schemes for the Bellman equation (a convex Isaacs equation). In this paper we consider an extension of this theory to a class of non-convex multidimensional Isaacs equations. This is the first result of this kind...

Eynard-Mehta theorem, Schur process, and their pfaffian analogs
We give simple linear algebraic proofs of Eynard-Mehta theorem, Okounkov-Reshetikhin formula for the correlation kernel of the Schur process, and Pfaffian analogs of these results. We also discuss certain general properties of the spaces of all determinantal and Pfaffian processes on a given finite set.

Probing the evolutionary status of starless cores through N2H+ and N2D+ observations
We have undertaken a survey of N2H+ and N2D+ towards 31 low-mass starless cores using the IRAM 30m telescope. Our main objective has been to determine the abundance ratio of N2D+ and N2H+ towards the nuclei of these cores and thus to obtain estimates of the degree of deuterium enrichment, a symptom of advanced chemical...

Mass loss from dwarf spheroidal galaxies: the origins of shallow dark matter cores and exponential surface brightness profiles
Dwarf spheroidal galaxies have shallow central dark matter density profiles, low angular momentum and approximately exponential surface brightness distributions.

We propose a method to separate these components based on the angular dependence of the 21cm fluctuation power spectrum. Peculiar vel...

The simulations show that the ...
