Cosmological analysis of reconstructed $${\mathcal {F}}(T,T_{\mathcal {G}})$$ models

In this paper, we analyze cosmological consequences of the reconstructed generalized ghost pilgrim dark energy \({\mathcal {F}}(T,T_{\mathcal {G}})\) models in terms of redshift parameter z. For this purpose, we consider power-law scale factor, scale factor for two unified phases and intermediate scale factor. We discuss graphical behavior of the reconstructed models and examine their stability analysis. Also, we explore the behavior of equation of state as well as deceleration parameters and \(\omega _{\Lambda }-\omega _{\Lambda }^{'}\) as well as \(r-s\) planes. It is found that all models are stable for pilgrim dark energy parameter 2. The equation of state parameter satisfies the necessary condition for pilgrim dark energy phenomenon for all scale factors. All other cosmological parameters show great consistency with the current behavior of the universe.     

Spectral Deformation for Two-Body Dispersive Systems with e.g. the Yukawa Potential

We find an explicit closed formula for the k’th iterated commutator \({\text{ad}_{A}^{k}}(H_{V}(\xi ))\) of arbitrary order k ? 1 between a Hamiltonian \(H_{V}(\xi )=M_{\omega _{\xi }}+S_{\check V}\) and a conjugate operator \(A=\frac{\mathfrak{i}}{2}(v_{\xi}\cdot\nabla+\nabla\cdot v_{\xi})\), where \(M_{\omega _{\xi }}\) is the operator of multiplication with the real analytic function ω _ξ which depends real analytically on the parameter ξ, and the operator \(S_{\check V}\) is the operator of convolution with the (sufficiently nice) function \(\check V\), and v _ξ is some vector field determined by ω _ξ . Under certain assumptions, which are satisfied for the Yukawa potential, we then prove estimates of the form \(\| {{\text{ad}_{A}^{k}}(H_{V}(\xi ))(H_{0}(\xi )+\mathfrak{i} )}\|\leqslant C_{\xi }^{k}k!\) where C _ξ is some constant which depends continuously on ξ. The Hamiltonian is the fixed total momentum fiber Hamiltonian of an abstract two-body dispersive system and the work is inspired by a recent result [3] which, under conditions including estimates of the mentioned type, opens up for spectral deformation and analytic perturbation theory of embedded eigenvalues of finite multiplicity.     

Method of uniform effective field in structure-dynamic approach of nanoionics

In the structure-dynamic approach of nanoionics, the method of a uniform effective field \( {F}_{\mathrm{eff}}^{j,k} \) of a crystallographic planeX ^j has been substantiated for solid electrolyte nanostructures. The \( {F}_{\mathrm{eff}}^{j,k} \)is defined as an approximation of a non-uniform field \( {F}_{\mathrm{dis}}^j \)of X ^j with a discrete- random distribution of excess point charges. The parameters of \( {F}_{\mathrm{eff}}^{j,k} \)are calculated by correction of the uniform Gauss field \( {F}_{\mathrm{G}}^j \) of X ^j . The change in an average frequency of ionic jumps X ^k ?→?X ^k?+?1 between adjacent planes of nanostructure is determined by the sum of field additives to the barrier heights η _k , _k?+?1, and for \( {F}_{\mathrm{G}}^j \) and \( {F}_{\mathrm{dis}}^j \), these sums are the same decimal order of magnitude. For nanostructures with length ~4 nm, the application of \( {F}_{\mathrm{G}}^j \) (as \( {F}_{\mathrm{eff}}^{j,k} \)) gives the accuracy ~20 % in calculations of ion transport characteristics. The computer explorations of the “universal” dynamic response (Reσ ^??∝?ω ⁿ ) show an approximately the same power n < ≈1 for\( {F}_{\mathrm{G}}^j \) and \( {F}_{\mathrm{eff}}^{j,k} \).     

The Exoticness and Realisability of Twisted Haagerup–Izumi Modular Data

The quantum double of the Haagerup subfactor, the first irreducible finite depth subfactor with index above 4, is the most obvious candidate for exotic modular data. We show that its modular data \({\mathcal{D}{\rm Hg}}\) fits into a family \({\mathcal{D}^\omega {\rm Hg}_{2n+1}}\) , where n ≥  0 and \({\omega\in \mathbb{Z}_{2n+1}}\) . We show \({\mathcal{D}^0 {\rm Hg}_{2n+1}}\) is related to the subfactors Izumi hypothetically associates to the cyclic groups \({\mathbb{Z}_{2n+1}}\) . Their modular data comes equipped with canonical and dual canonical modular invariants; we compute the corresponding alpha-inductions, etc. In addition, we show there are (respectively) 1, 2, 0 subfactors of Izumi type \({\mathbb{Z}_7, \mathbb{Z}_9}\) and \({\mathbb{Z}_3^2}\) , and find numerical evidence for 2, 1, 1, 1, 2 subfactors of Izumi type \({\mathbb{Z}_{11},\mathbb{Z}_{13},\mathbb{Z}_{15},\mathbb{Z}_{17},\mathbb{Z}_{19}}\) (previously, Izumi had shown uniqueness for \({\mathbb{Z}_3}\) and \({\mathbb{Z}_5}\)), and we identify their modular data. We explain how \({\mathcal{D}{\rm Hg}}\) (more generally \({\mathcal{D}^\omega {\rm Hg}_{2n+1}}\)) is a graft of the quantum double \({\mathcal{D} Sym(3)}\) (resp. the twisted double \({\mathcal{D}^\omega D_{2n+1}}\)) by affine so(13) (resp. so\({(4n^2+4n+5)}\)) at level 2. We discuss the vertex operator algebra (or conformal field theory) realisation of the modular data \({\mathcal{D}^\omega {\rm Hg}_{2n+1}}\) . For example we show there are exactly 2 possible character vectors (giving graded dimensions of all modules) for the Haagerup VOA at central charge c = 8. It seems unlikely that any of this twisted Haagerup-Izumi modular data can be regarded as exotic, in any reasonable sense.     

A Study of Holographic Dark Energy Models in Chern-Simon Modified Gravity

This paper is devoted to study some holographic dark energy models in the context of Chern-Simon modified gravity by considering FRW universe. We analyze the equation of state parameter using Granda and Oliveros infrared cut-off proposal which describes the accelerated expansion of the universe under the restrictions on the parameter α. It is shown that for the accelerated expansion phase \( -1<\omega _{\Lambda }<-\frac {1}{3}\), the parameter α varies according as \(1<\alpha <\frac {3}{2}\). Furthermore, for 0<α<1, the holographic energy and pressure density illustrates phantom-like theory of the evolution when ω_Λ<?1. Also, we discuss the correspondence between the quintessence, K-essence, tachyon and dilaton field models and holographic dark energy models on similar fashion. To discuss the accelerated expansion of the universe, we explore the potential and the dynamics of quintessence, K-essence, tachyon and dilaton field models.     

Recent results on kaon decays by the NA48/2 experiment at CERN

The NA48/2 experiment reports the first observation of the rare decay K^± → π^±π⁰e⁺e^?, based on about 2000 candidates from 2003 data. The preliminary branching ratio in the full kinematic region is \(\mathcal {B}(K^{\pm } \to \pi ^{\pm }\pi ^{0}e^{+}e^{-})=(4.06\pm 0.17)\cdot 10^{-6}\). A sample of 4.687 × 10⁶\(K^{\pm }\to \pi ^{\pm }{\pi ^{0}_{D}}\) events collected in 2003/4 is analyzed to search for the dark photon (\(A^{\prime }\)) via the decay chain K^± → π^±π⁰, \(\pi ^{0}\to \gamma A^{\prime }\), \(A^{\prime }\to e^{+}e^{-}\). No signal is observed, limits in the plane mixing parameter ε² versus its mass \(m_{A^{\prime }}\) are reported.     

A Heisenberg Double Addition to the Logarithmic Kazhdan–Lusztig Duality

For a Hopf algebra B, we endow the Heisenberg double \({\mathcal{H}(B^*)}\) with the structure of a module algebra over the Drinfeld double \({\mathcal{D}(B)}\). Based on this property, we propose that \({\mathcal{H}(B^*)}\) is to be the counterpart of the algebra of fields on the quantum-group side of the Kazhdan–Lusztig duality between logarithmic conformal field theories and quantum groups. As an example, we work out the case where B is the Taft Hopf algebra related to the \({\overline{\mathcal{U}}_{\mathfrak{q}} s\ell(2)}\) quantum group that is Kazhdan–Lusztig-dual to (p,1) logarithmic conformal models. The corresponding pair \({(\mathcal{D}(B),\mathcal{H}(B^*))}\) is “truncated” to \({(\overline{\mathcal{U}}_{\mathfrak{q}} s\ell2,\overline{\mathcal{H}}_{\mathfrak{q}} s\ell(2))}\), where \({\overline{\mathcal{H}}_{\mathfrak{q}} s\ell(2)}\) is a \({\overline{\mathcal{U}}_{\mathfrak{q}} s\ell(2)}\) module algebra that turns out to have the form \({\overline{\mathcal{H}}_{\mathfrak{q}} s\ell(2)=\mathbb{C}_{\mathfrak{q}}[z,\partial]\otimes\mathbb{C}[\lambda]/(\lambda^{2p}-1)}\), where \({\mathbb{C}_{\mathfrak{q}}[z,\partial]}\) is the \({\overline{\mathcal{U}}_{\mathfrak{q}} s\ell(2)}\)-module algebra with the relations z ^p  = 0, ? ^p  = 0, and \({\partial z = \mathfrak{q}-\mathfrak{q}^{-1} + \mathfrak{q}^{-2} z\partial}\).     

Quantum Fisher Information for <Emphasis Type="Italic">s</Emphasis><Emphasis Type="Italic">u</Emphasis>(2) Atomic Coherent States and <Emphasis Type="Italic">s</Emphasis><Emphasis Type="Italic">u</Emphasis>(1, 1) Coherent States

We investigate quantum Fisher information (QFI) for s u(2) atomic coherent states and s u(1, 1) coherent states. In this work, we find that for s u(2) atomic coherent states, the QFI with respect to \(\vartheta ~(\mathcal {F}_{\vartheta })\) is independent of φ, the QFI with respect to \(\varphi (\mathcal {F}_{\varphi })\) is governed by ??. Analogously, for s u(1,1) coherent states, \(\mathcal {F}_{\tau }\) is independent of φ, and \(\mathcal {F}_{\varphi }\) is determined by τ. Particularly, our results show that \(\mathcal {F}_{\varphi }\) is symmetric with respect to ?? = π/2 for s u(2) atomic coherent states. And for s u(1,1) coherent states, \(\mathcal {F}_{\varphi }\) also possesses symmetry with respect to τ = 0.     

Stability analysis and quasinormal modes of Reissner–Nordstrøm space-time via Lyapunov exponent

We explicitly derive the proper-time (τ) principal Lyapunov exponent (λ_p) and coordinate-time (t) principal Lyapunov exponent (λ_c) for Reissner–Nordstrøm (RN) black hole (BH). We also compute their ratio. For RN space-time, it is shown that the ratio is \(({\lambda _{p}}/{\lambda _{c}})={r_{0}}/{\sqrt {{r_{0}^{2}}-3Mr_{0}+2Q^{2}}}\) for time-like circular geodesics and for Schwarzschild BH, it is \(({\lambda _{p}}/{\lambda _{c}})={\sqrt {r_{0}}}/{\sqrt {r_{0}-3M}}\). We further show that their ratio λ_p/λ_c may vary from orbit to orbit. For instance, for Schwarzschild BH at the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO), the ratio is \(({\lambda _{p}}/{\lambda _{c}})|_{r_{\text {ISCO}}=6M}=\sqrt {2}\) and at marginally bound circular orbit (MBCO) the ratio is calculated to be \(({\lambda _{p}}/{\lambda _{c}})|_{r_{\mathrm {m}\mathrm {b}}=4M}=2\). Similarly, for extremal RN BH, the ratio at ISCO is \(({\lambda _{p}}/{\lambda _{c}})|_{r_{\text {ISCO}}=4M}={2\sqrt {2}}/{\sqrt {3}}\). We also further analyse the geodesic stability via this exponent. By evaluating the Lyapunov exponent, it is shown that in the eikonal limit, the real and imaginary parts of the quasinormal modes of RN BH is given by the frequency and instability time-scale of the unstable null circular geodesics.     

A New Set of Limiting Gibbs Measures for the Ising Model on a Cayley Tree

For the Ising model (with interaction constant J>0) on the Cayley tree of order k≥2 it is known that for the temperature T≥T _c,k =J/arctan?(1/k) the limiting Gibbs measure is unique, and for T<T _c,k there are uncountably many extreme Gibbs measures. In the Letter we show that if \(T\in(T_{c,\sqrt{k}}, T_{c,k_{0}})\), with \(\sqrt{k} then there is a new uncountable set \({\mathcal{G}}_{k,k_{0}}\) of Gibbs measures. Moreover \({\mathcal{G}}_{k,k_{0}}\ne {\mathcal{G}}_{k,k'_{0}}\), for k ₀≠k′₀. Therefore if \(T\in (T_{c,\sqrt{k}}, T_{c,\sqrt{k}+1})\), \(T_{c,\sqrt{k}+1} then the set of limiting Gibbs measures of the Ising model contains the set {known Gibbs measures}\(\cup(\bigcup_{k_{0}:\sqrt{k}.     

On a Classical Limit of <Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis>-Deformed Whittaker Functions

Previously, we derive a representation of q-deformed \({\mathfrak{gl}_{\ell+1}}\) -Whittaker function as a sum over Gelfand–Zetlin patterns. This representation provides an analog of the Shintani–Casselman–Shalika formula for q-deformed \({\mathfrak{gl}_{\ell+1}}\) -Whittaker functions. In this note, we provide a derivation of the Givental integral representation of the classical \({\mathfrak{gl}_{\ell+1}}\) -Whittaker function as a limit q → 1 of the sum over the Gelfand–Zetlin patterns representation of the q-deformed \({\mathfrak{gl}_{\ell+1}}\) -Whittaker function. Thus, Givental representation provides an analog the Shintani–Casselman–Shalika formula for classical Whittaker functions.     

Determinations of $$|V_{cb}|$$ and $$|V_{ub}|$$|Vub| from baryonic $$\Lambda _b$$Λb decays

We present the first attempt to extract \(|V_{cb}|\) from the \(\Lambda _b\rightarrow \Lambda _c^+\ell \bar{\nu }_\ell \) decay without relying on \(|V_{ub}|\) inputs from the B meson decays. Meanwhile, the hadronic \(\Lambda _b\rightarrow \Lambda _c M_{(c)}\) decays with \(M=(\pi ^-,K^-)\) and \(M_c=(D^-,D^-_s)\) measured with high precisions are involved in the extraction. Explicitly, we find that \(|V_{cb}|=(44.6\pm 3.2)\times 10^{-3}\), agreeing with the value of \((42.11\pm 0.74)\times 10^{-3}\) from the inclusive \(B\rightarrow X_c\ell \bar{\nu }_\ell \) decays. Furthermore, based on the most recent ratio of \(|V_{ub}|/|V_{cb}|\) from the exclusive modes, we obtain \(|V_{ub}|=(4.3\pm 0.4)\times 10^{-3}\), which is close to the value of \((4.49\pm 0.24)\times 10^{-3}\) from the inclusive \(B\rightarrow X_u\ell \bar{\nu }_\ell \) decays. We conclude that our determinations of \(|V_{cb}|\) and \(|V_{ub}|\) favor the corresponding inclusive extractions in the B decays.     

Studying the Fourth Generation Quark Contributions to the Double Charm Decays B(s)→D(s)(∗)Ds(∗)

Almost all branching ratios and longitudinal polarization fractions of the double charm decays \(B_{(s)} \to D_{(s)}^{(*)} D_{s}^{(*)}\) have been measured, and the experimental central value of \(f_{L}({B^{0}_{s}}\to D^{*+}_{s}D^{*-}_{s})\) is quite small comparing to its Standard Model prediction. We study the fourth generation quark contributions to the double charm decays \(B_{(s)} \to D_{(s)}^{(*)} D_{s}^{(*)}\). We find that the loop diagrams involving the fourth generation quark t′ have great effects on all branching ratios and CP asymmetries, which are very sensitive to the fourth generation parameter \(\lambda ^{s}_{t^{\prime }}\) and \(\phi _{t^{\prime }}\). Nevertheless, the experimental measurements of all branching ratios can not give effective constraints on relevant new physics parameters. In addition, they have no obvious effect on the relevant polarization fractions. These results could be used to search for the fourth heavy quark t′ via its indirect manifestations in loop diagrams.     

Experimental evidence for the exotic dibaryon $d^{\ast }_{1}$

We provide strong experimental evidence for the existence of a nonstrange exotic dibaryon with a mass of about 1956 MeV called \(d^{\ast }_{1}\)(1956). This dibaryon is expected to be stable against strong decay and decays predominantly into two nucleons (NN) via the isospin-conserving radiative process \(d^{\ast }_{1} \to NN \gamma \). First, we present the experimental evidence for the \(d^{\ast }_{1}\)(1956) found in the energy spectrum of the coincident photons emitted at ±90⁰ from the reaction p p → p p γ γ at 216 MeV. Then we give an explanation why the WASA/CELSIUS Collaboration did not find signatures of this dibaryon in its proton-proton bremsstrahlung data measured at 310 and 200 MeV. We also present signatures of this dibaryon found in experimental invariant mass spectra of photon pairs from the p p → p p γ γ reaction measured by this collaboration at 1360 and 1200 MeV. These signatures provide very substantial confirmation of the existence of the \(d^{\ast }_{1}\)(1956).     

Hypersurfaces Satisfying <Emphasis Type="BoldItalic">τ</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="BoldItalic">2</Emphasis></Subscript><Emphasis Type="BoldItalic">(ϕ) = ητ(ϕ)</Emphasis> in Pseudo-Riemannian Space Forms

In this paper, we derived the equations for the hypersurface \({M^{n}_{r}}\) of a pseudo-Riemannian space form \(N^{n+1}_{q}(c)\) to satisfy τ ₂(?) = η τ(?) (η a constant) with τ(?) and τ ₂(?) be the tension and bitension fields of \({M^{n}_{r}}\). As applications, we prove that a hypersurface \({M^{n}_{r}}\) satisfying τ ₂(?) = η τ(?) in \(N^{n+1}_{q}(c)\) has constant mean curvature, under the assumption that \({M^{n}_{r}}\) has diagonalizable shape operator with at most three distinct principal curvatures. Then, using this result, we classify partially such hypersurface. We also make a preliminary study of hypersurfaces satisfying τ ₂(?) = f τ(?) with f be function.     

Two Phases of the Non-Commutative Quantum Mechanics with the Generalized Uncertainty Relations

We consider the quantum mechanics on the noncommutative plane with the generalized uncertainty relations \({\Delta } x_{1} {\Delta } x_{2} \ge \frac {\theta }{2}, {\Delta } p_{1} {\Delta } p_{2} \ge \frac {\bar {\theta }}{2}, {\Delta } x_{i} {\Delta } p_{i} \ge \frac {\hbar }{2}, {\Delta } x_{1} {\Delta } p_{2} \ge \frac {\eta }{2}\). We show that the model has two essentially different phases which is determined by \(\kappa = 1 + \frac {1}{\hbar ^{2} } (\eta ^{2} - \theta \bar {\theta })\). We construct a operator \(\hat {\pi }_{i}\) commuting with \(\hat {x}_{j} \) and discuss the harmonic oscillator model in two dimensional non-commutative space for three case κ > 0, κ = 0, κ < 0. Finally, we discuss the thermodynamics of a particle whose hamiltonian is related to the harmonic oscillator model in two dimensional non-commutative space.     

Excited state mass spectra of doubly heavy $$\Xi $$ baryons

In this paper, the mass spectra are obtained for doubly heavy \(\Xi \) baryons, namely, \(\Xi _{cc}^{+}\), \(\Xi _{cc}^{++}\), \(\Xi _{bb}^{-}\), \(\Xi _{bb}^{0}\), \(\Xi _{bc}^{0}\) and \(\Xi _{bc}^{+}\). These baryons consist of two heavy quarks (cc, bb, and bc) with a light (d or u) quark. The ground, radial, and orbital states are calculated in the framework of the hypercentral constituent quark model with Coulomb plus linear potential. Our results are also compared with other predictions, thus, the average possible range of excited states masses of these \(\Xi \) baryons can be determined. The study of the Regge trajectories is performed in (n, \(M^{2}\)) and (J, \(M^{2}\)) planes and their slopes and intercepts are also determined. Lastly, the ground state magnetic moments of these doubly heavy baryons are also calculated.     

Viability of variable generalised Chaplygin gas: a thermodynamical approach

The viability of the variable generalised Chaplygin gas (VGCG) model is analysed from the standpoint of its thermodynamical stability criteria with the help of an equation of state, \(P = - \frac{B}{\rho ^{\alpha } }\), where \(B = B_{0}V^{-\frac{n}{3}}\). Here \(B_{0}\) is assumed to be a positive universal constant, n is a constant parameter and V is the volume of the cosmic fluid. We get the interesting result that if the well-known stability conditions of a fluid is adhered to, the values of n are constrained to be negative definite to make \( \left( \frac{\partial P}{\partial V}\right) _{S} <0\) & \( \left( \frac{\partial P}{\partial V}\right) _{T} <0\) throughout the evolution. Moreover the positivity of thermal capacity at constant volume \(c_{V}\) as also the validity of the third law of thermodynamics are ensured in this case. For the particular case \(n = 0\) the effective equation of state reduces to \(\Lambda \)CDM model in the late stage of the universe while for \(n <0\) it mimics a phantom-like cosmology which is in broad agreement with the present SNe Ia constraints like VGCG model. The thermal equation of state is discussed and the EoS parameter is found to be an explicit function of temperature only. Further for large volume the thermal equation of state parameter is identical with the caloric equation of state parameter when \( T \rightarrow 0\). It may also be mentioned that like Santos et al. our model does not admit of any critical points. We also observe that although the earlier model of Lu explains many of the current observational findings of different probes it fails to explain the crucial tests of thermodynamical stability.
