Fixed Point Theorems for Mean Nonexpansive Mappings in CAT(0) Spaces

In this article, we prove the existence of fixed points and the demiclosed principle for mean nonexpansive mappings in Cartan, Alexandrov and Toponogov(0) spaces. We also obtain a Δ-convergence theorem and a strong convergence theorem of Ishikawa iteration for mean nonexpansive mappings in Cartan, Alexandrov and Toponogov(0) spaces.     

On sums of sparse prime subsets

For arbitrary c00, if A is a subset of the primes less than x with cardinality δx(logx)-1, δ≥(logx)-c0, then there exists a positive constant c such that the cardinality of A+A is larger than cδx(loglogx)-1.

称环R是右线性McCoy的,如果R[x]中非零线性多项式f（x）,g（x）满足I（x）g（x）=0,则存在非零元素r∈R使得f（x）r=0．设a是环R的自同态,通过用斜多项式环R[x;a]中的元素代替一般多项式环R[x]中的元素而引入a-线性McCoy环的概念．讨论了a-线性McCoy环的基本性质和扩张性质．     

Environmental dispersion in a three-layer wetland flow with free-surface

To further address the characteristic of contaminant transport in wetlands of a multi-layer structure, environmental dispersion of a pulsed contaminant emission into a steady flow is analytically explored in this paper for the typical case of a respectively vegetated or packed three-layer wetland dominated with free-water-surface-effect. The hierarchical structure for the critical length and duration of the contaminant cloud is illustrated for the dispersion of typical contaminant constituents.

Side-Arm Assisted Anilido-Imine Based Rare-Earth Metal Complexes for Isoprene Stereoselective Polymerization

Anilido-imine ligands o-C₆H₄(NHAr₁)(CH=NAr₂), in which Ar₁ is 2,6-diisopropylbenzyl group and Ar₂ contains fluorine (HL₁) or methoxyl (HL₂) group on ortho-position of phenyl substituent, were synthesized for constructing rare-earth metals based complexes of 1a–1c (HL₁ based Sc, Lu, Y) and 2a–2c (HL₂ based Sc, Lu, Y). Based on their NMR spectra and X-ray single-crystal structures, the side-arm group of -F and -OMe is identified to chelate to the corresponding central metal. The twisted angles between two planes formed by chelated heteroatoms (N, N, F for HL₁ and N, N, O for HL₂) are observed, in which the largest dihedral angle (53.3°) for HL₁-Y and the smallest dihedral angle (44.32°) for HL₂-Sc are detected. After being activated by AlⁱBu₃ and [Ph₃C][B(C₆F₅)₄], these catalysts showed great activity for isoprene polymerization. Bearing the same ligand HL₁, smaller scandium based complex 1a and middle size of lutetium based 1b provided lower cis-1,4-selectivity (57.3% and 64.2%), larger yttrium complex 1c displayed high cis-1,4-selectivity (84%). Chelating by crowded HL₂, small size of scandium complex 2a provided impressive trans-1,4-selectivity (93.0%), middle lutetium based 2b displayed non-selectivity and larger yttrium complex 2c showed clear cis-1,4-selectivity (83.3%). Moreover, 2a/AlⁱBu₃ system showed the quasi-living chain transfer capability.     

DLSTM-Based Successive Cancellation Flipping Decoder for Short Polar Codes

Polar code has been adopted as the control channel coding scheme for the fifth generation (5G), and the performance of short polar codes is receiving intensive attention. The successive cancellation flipping (SC flipping) algorithm suffers a significant performance loss in short block lengths. To address this issue, we propose a double long short-term memory (DLSTM) neural network to locate the first error bit. To enhance the prediction accuracy of the DLSTM network, all frozen bits are clipped in the output layer. Then, Gaussian approximation is applied to measure the channel reliability and rank the flipping set to choose the least reliable position for multi-bit flipping. To be robust under different codewords, padding and masking strategies aid the network architecture to be compatible with multiple block lengths. Numerical results indicate that the error-correction performance of the proposed algorithm is competitive with that of the CA-SCL algorithm. It has better performance than the machine learning-based multi-bit flipping SC (ML-MSCF) decoder and the dynamic SC flipping (DSCF) decoder for short polar codes.     

Thermal modeling optimization and experimental validation for a single, concentrator solar cell system with a heat sink

A single concentrator solar cell model with a heat sink is established to simulate the thermal performance of the system by varying the number, height, and thickness of fins, the base thickness and thermal resistance of the thermal conductive adhesive. Influence disciplines of those parameters on temperatures of the solar cell and heat sink are obtained. With optimized number, height and thickness of fins, and the thickness values of base of 8, 1.4 cm, 1.5 mm, and 2 mm, the lowest temperatures of the solar cell and heat sink are 41.7℃ and 36.3℃ respectively. A concentrator solar cell prototype with a heat sink fabricated based on the simulation optimized structure is built. Outdoor temperatures of the prototype are tested. Temperatures of the solar cell and heat sink are stabilized with time continuing at about 37℃-38℃ and 35℃-36℃ respectively, slightly lower than the simulation results because of effects of the wind and cloud. Thus the simulation model enables to predict the thermal performance of the system, and the simulation results can be a reference for designing heat sinks in the field of single concentrator solar cells.     

Effects of effective attractive multi-body interaction on quantum phase and transport dynamics of a strongly correlated bosonic gas across the superfluid to Mott insulator transition

We theoretically investigate quantum phases and transport dynamics of ultracold atoms trapped in an optical lattice in the presence of effective multi-body interaction.When a harmonic external potential is added,several interesting phenomena are revealed,such as the broadening and the emergence of a central insulator plateau and the phase transition between superfluid and Mott insulator phase.We also study the transport of the system which runs across the superfluid–insulator transition after ramping up the lattice,and predict a slower relaxation which is attributed to the influence of the multi-body interaction on the mass transport.
