Multifrequency observations of the jets in the radio galaxy NGC 315
We present images of the jets in the nearby radio galaxy NGC 315 made with the VLA at five frequencies between 1.365 and 5 GHz with resolutions between 1.5 and 45 arcsec FWHM. Within 15 arcsec of the nucleus, the spectral index of the jets is 0.61. Further from the nucleus, the spectrum is flatter, with significant tra...

Multi-Dimensional G-Brownian Motion and Related Stochastic Calculus under G-Expectation
We develop a notion of nonlinear expectation --G-expectation-- generated by a nonlinear heat equation with infinitesimal generator G. We first study multi-dimensional G-normal distributions. With this nonlinear distribution we can introduce our G-expectation under which the canonical process is a multi dimensional G-Br...

Avoiding Dark Energy with 1/R Modifications of Gravity

This is why there has been so much recent interest in modified gravity. I review the powerful theorem o...

Recursive Monte Carlo filters: Algorithms and theoretical analysis
Recursive Monte Carlo filters, also called particle filters, are a powerful tool to perform computations in general state space models. We discuss and compare the accept--reject version with the more common sampling importance resampling version of the algorithm. In particular, we show how auxiliary variable methods an...

We show that the BIMATRIX game does not have a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme, unless PPAD is in P. In other words, no algorithm with time polynomial in n and 1/\epsilon can compute an \epsilon-approximate Nash equilibrium of an n by nbimatrix game, unless PPAD is in P.

Asymptotic behavior of the unconditional NPMLE of the length-biased survivor function from right censored prevalent cohort data
Right censored survival data collected on a cohort of prevalent cases with constant incidence are length-biased, and may be used to estimate the length-biased (i.e., prevalent-case) survival function. When the incidence rate is constant, so-called stationarity of the incidence, it is more efficient to use this structur...

Rotating Black Holes at Future Colliders. III. Determination of Black Hole Evolution
TeV scale gravity scenario predicts that the black hole production dominates over all other interactions above the scale and that the Large Hadron Collider will be a black hole factory. Such higher dimensional black holes mainly decay into the standard model fields via the Hawking radiation whose spectrum can be comput...

Turbo Decoding on the Binary Erasure Channel: Finite-Length Analysis and Turbo Stopping Sets
This paper is devoted to the finite-length analysis of turbo decoding over the binary erasure channel (BEC). The performance of iterative belief-propagation (BP) decoding of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes over the BEC can be characterized in terms of stopping sets. We describe turbo decoding on the BEC which is ...

The Mass-Metallicity Relation at z~2
We use a sample of 87 rest-frame UV-selected star-forming galaxies with mean spectroscopic redshift z=2.26 to study the correlation between metallicity and stellar mass at high redshift. Using stellar masses determined from SED fitting to 0.3-8 micron photometry, we divide the sample into six bins in stellar mass, and ...

Spectral gaps in Wasserstein distances and the 2D stochastic Navier--Stokes equations
We develop a general method to prove the existence of spectral gaps for Markov semigroups on Banach spaces. Unlike most previous work, the type of norm we consider for this analysis is neither a weighted supremum norm nor an ${\L}^p$-type norm, but involves the derivative of the observable as well and hence can be seen...

Black Holes and Generalized Scalar Field
We study the possibility of occurrence of scalar hair with a non-canonical kinetic term for a static, spherically symmetric asymptotically flat black hole spacetime. We first obtain a general equation for this purpose and then consider various examples for the kinetic term $F(X)$ with $X=-{1\over{2}}\partial^{\mu}\phi\...

On the rational subset problem for groups
We use language theory to study the rational subset problem for groups and monoids. We show that the decidability of this problem is preserved under graph of groups constructions with finite edge groups. In particular, it passes through free products amalgamated over finite subgroups and HNN extensions with finite asso...

The approximability of MAX CSP with fixed-value constraints
In the maximum constraint satisfaction problem (MAX CSP), one is given a finite collection of (possibly weighted) constraints on overlapping sets of variables, and the goal is to assign values from a given finite domain to the variables so as to maximize the number (or the total weight, for the weighted case) of satisf...

A stochastic Trotter integration scheme for dissipative particle dynamics
In this article we show in details the derivation of an integration scheme for the dissipative particle dynamic model (DPD) using the stochastic Trotter formula [De Fabritiis et al., Physica A, 361, 429 (2006)]. We explain some subtleties due to the stochastic character of the equations and exploit analyticity in some ...

High-dimensional fractionalization and spinon deconfinement in pyrochlore antiferromagnets
The ground states of Klein type spin models on the pyrochlore and checkerboard lattice are spanned by the set of singlet dimer coverings, and thus possess an extensive ground--state degeneracy. Among the many exotic consequences is the presence of deconfined fractional excitations (spinons) which propagate through the ...

We introduce a new variance reduction method, which can be viewed as a statistical analogue of Romberg extrapolation method. Namely, we use two Euler ...

Our data, combined with early optical data reported in the literature, shows unusual behavior for both afterglows. In R-band GRB 060206 (z=4.045) experienced a slow early decay, ...
