D = 5, N = 2 Geometric Higher Curvature Supergravity in the Second-Order Canonical Theory

The supersymmetric extension of the five-dimensional Chern–Simons gravity is studied from the Hamiltonian point of view. This model containing the Gauss–Bonnet term quadratic in the Riemann curvature is the gauge theory of the supergroup SU(2,2/1). In the first order, the theory has a polynomial structure, but the second-order leads to a nonpolynomial structure for both the Hamiltonian and the supersymmetry transformation rules of the fields. The second-order theory has the advantage that the apparent gauge degrees of freedom are unambiguously removed leaving only the physical ones. This important feature is analyzed by constructing the second-order Hamiltonian theory. The gauge invariances of the model and the generator of time evolution are found.     

Models to estimate viscosities of ternary metallic melts and their comparisons

Viscosity is an important property that influences industrial processes relevant to fluid. The transferring rate of impurities, such as S, P and N, is affected with the viscosity of metallic melts. The interfacial reactions and impurity removal depend on the viscosity of both slag and metallic melt. Viscosity of gas and liquid are all affecting the transferring process and velocity. However, the amount of viscosity data is far from satisfactory for the needs of today抯 technology, especially…     

Quantum-chemical estimates of geometric parameters of free radicals

Experimental geometries of the HCO^· and H₂CO^·+ -electron radicals were compared with those obtained from calculations with the total energy optimization carried out in the framework of widely used ab initio and semiempirical computational procedures. For each structural form of the radicals, the magnetic resonance parameters calculated in the MNDO approximation were correlated with experimental values determined by ESR spectroscopy. Comparative analysis of the results obtained indicates the possibility of systematic correction of the optimized geometric parameters of free radicals using the results of ESR measurements. A simple computational procedure for automatic geometry correction in the MNDO approximation is developed and evaluated.     

The Topology of Algebra: Combinatorics of Squaring

We study the graph each of whose edges connects an element of a given ring with the square of itself. For a finite commutative group (e.g., for the multiplicative group of coprime residue classes modulo a positive integer), we describe this graph explicitly: each of its connected components is an oriented attracting cycle equipped with identical -vertex rooted trees of special form whose roots reside on the cycle. We also compute the graphs of permutation groups on not too many elements and of the subgroups of even permutations; the connected components of these graphs are also uniformly equipped cycles.     

Graphs that are not complete pluripolar

Design of Civil Engineering Frame Structures Using a Monomial/Newton Hybrid Method

This paper presents an application of a monomial approximation method for solving systems of nonlinear equations to the design of civil engineering frame structures. This is accomplished by solving a set of equations representing the state known as fully-stressed design, where each member of the structure is stressed to the maximum safe allowable level under at least one of the loading conditions acting on it. The monomial approximation method is based on the process of condensation, which has its origin in geometric programming theory. A monomial/Newton hybrid method is presented which permits some of the design variables to be free in sign, while others are strictly positive. This hybrid method is well suited to the structural design application since some variables are naturally positive and others are naturally free. The proposed method is compared to the most commonly used fully-stressed design method in practice. The hybrid method is shown to find solutions that the conventional method cannot find, while doing so with less computational effort. The impact of this approach on the activity of structural design is discussed.

Geometric phase for degenerate states of spin-1 and spin-1/2 pair

The geometric phase of a bi-particle model is discussed. One can drive the system to evolve by applying an external magnetic field, thereby controlling the geometric phase. The model has degenerate lowest-energy eigenvectors. The initial state is assumed to be the linear superposition or mixture of the eigenvectors. The relationship between the geometric phase and the structures of the initial state is considered, and the results are extended to a more general model.      

Nonbinary quantum error-correcting codes from algebraic curves

We give a new exposition and proof of a generalized CSS construction for nonbinary quantum error-correcting codes. Using this we construct nonbinary quantum stabilizer codes with various lengths, dimensions, and minimum distances from algebraic curves. We also give asymptotically good nonbinary quantum codes from a Garcia–Stichtenoth tower of function fields which are constructible in polynomial time.
