Analogue of Aharonov-Bohm effect in spin gauge theory

We predict the possibility of observing analogue of the Aharonov-Bohm effect due to long range interaction between spins originating in the framework of spin gauge theory developed earlier. The effect is predicted for both electrons (fermions) and photons. Appropriate experimental set-ups are suggested.     

Maximizing the minimum completion time on parallel machines

We propose an exact branch-and-bound algorithm for the problem of maximizing the minimum machine completion time on identical parallel machines. The proposed algorithm is based on tight lower and upper bounds as well as an effective symmetry-breaking branching strategy. Computational results performed on a large set of randomly generated instances attest to the efficacy of the proposed algorithm.      

Acid/base controllable self-complexes that mimic flapping butterfly

A new type of self-complexed bis-crown ether containing two bis(p-phenylene)-34-crown-10 (BPP34C10) ether rings and two secondary ammoniums has been synthesized and characterized. The formation of these bis-self-complexes has been identified by NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and X-ray analysis. The acid/base controlled movement of these bis–crown ethers can mimic a flapping butterfly.     

Vibration reduction in a flexible-link mechanism through synthesis of an optimal controller

In this paper, reduction of vibration of a flexible planar mechanism is achieved through synthesis of an optimal controller. A finite element model, based on the equivalent rigid-link system theory, is used to accurately describe the dynamic behavior of the system. The model, which accounts for geometric and inertial nonlinearities of the mechanism, has been fully validated through experimental tests. In order to be able to employ the classical optimal control theory, a suitable linear model has been derived from the original one by means of a suitable linearization procedure. Vibration reduction can then be obtained by first defining an adequate performance index, which accounts for vibration amplitude, then by solving Riccati’s equation in order to find the controller that minimizes the performance index, i.e. the optimal controller. The results of several tests that have been carried out are also reported, to show the effectiveness of the synthesized control system.

Apollonius coordinates,theN-body problem,and continuation of periodic solutions

This paper treats theN-body problem and its relation to various restricted problems. For each solution of the Kepler problem a generalization of the pulsating coordinates used to express the Hamiltonian of the elliptic restricted three-body problem is given. These coordinates are called Apollonius coordinates. The method of symplectic scaling is used to give a precise derivation of the elliptic restricted problem showing the precise asymptotic relationship between the restricted problem and the full three-body problem. This derivation obviates the proof of the fact that a nondegenerate periodic solution of the elliptic restricted three-body problem can be continued into the full three-body problem under mild nonresonance assumptions. Also, the method of symplectic scaling is used to give a precise derivation of the elliptic Hill lunar equation showing the precise relationship between the elliptic Hill lunar equation and the full three-body problem. A similar continuation theorem is established.     

Quantum computing measurement and intelligence

One of the grand challenges in the nanoscopic computing era is guarantees of robustness. Robust computing system design is confronted with quantum physical, probabilistic, and even biological phenomena, and guaranteeing high‐reliability is much more difficult than ever before. Scaling devices down to the level of single electron operation will bring forth new challenges due to probabilistic effects and uncertainty in guaranteeing “zero‐one” based computing. Minuscule devices imply billions of devices on a single chip, which may help mitigate the challenge of uncertainty by replication and redundancy. However, such device densities will create a design and validation nightmare with the sheer scale. The questions that confront computer engineers regarding the current status of nanocomputing material and the reliability of systems built from such minuscule devices are difficult to articulate and answer. This article illustrates and discusses two types of quantum algorithms as follows: (1) a simple quantum algorithm and (2) a quantum search algorithm. This article also presents a review of recent advances in quantum computing and intelligence and presents major achievements and obstacles for researchers in the near future. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
