Pure annihilation decay of strange beauty meson into two charm heavy mesons

In this study, the heavy to heavy decay of \begin{document}$ B^0_s\rightarrow D^{*+}D^- $\end{document} is evaluated through the factorization approach by using the final state interaction as an effective correction. Under the factorization approach, this decay mode occurs only through the annihilation process, so a small amount is produced. Feynman's rules state that six meson pairs can be assumed for the intermediate states before the final meson pairs are produced. By taking into account the effects of twelve final state interaction diagrams in the calculations, a significant correction is obtained. These effects correct the value of the branching ratio obtained by the pure factorization approach from \begin{document}$ (2.41\pm1.37)\times10^{-5} $\end{document} to \begin{document}$ (8.27\pm2.23)\times10^{-5} $\end{document}. The value obtained for the branching ratio of the \begin{document}$ B^0_s\rightarrow D^{*+}D^- $\end{document} decay is consistent with the experimental results.     

New convolutions and their applicability to integral equations of Wiener-Hopf plus Hankel type

We propose four new convolutions exhibiting convenient factorization properties associated with two finite interval integral transformations of Fourier-type together with their norm inequalities. Moreover, we study the solvability of a class of integral equations of Wiener-Hopf plus Hankel type (on finite intervals) with the help of the factorization identities of such convolutions. Fourier-type series are used to produce the solution formula of such equations, and a Shannon-type sampling formula is also obtained.     

Revisiting radiative leptonic B decay

In this paper, we summarize the existing methods of solving the evolution equation of the leading-twist \begin{document}$B$\end{document}-meson LCDA. Then, in the Mellin space, we derive a factorization formula with next-to-leading-logarithmic (NLL) resummation for the form factors \begin{document}$F_{A,V}$\end{document} in the \begin{document}$B \to \gamma \ell\nu$\end{document} decay at leading power in \begin{document}$\Lambda/m_b$\end{document}. Furthermore, we investigate the power suppressed local contributions, factorizable non-local contributions (which are suppressed by \begin{document}$1/E_\gamma$\end{document} and \begin{document}$1/m_b$\end{document}), and soft contributions to the form factors. In the numerical analysis, which employs the two-loop-level hard function and the jet function, we find that both the resummation effect and the power corrections can sizably decrease the form factors. Finally, the integrated branching ratios are also calculated for comparison with future experimental data.     

Decomposition of ideals into pseudo-irreducible ideals

A proper ideal of a commutative ring is called pseudo-irreducible if it cannot be written as a product of two comaximal proper ideals. In this paper, we give a necessary and su?cient condition for every proper ideal of a commutative ring to be a product of pairwise comaximal pseudo-irreducible ideals. Examples of such rings include Laskerian rings, or more generally J-Noetherian rings and ZD-rings. We study when certain classes of rings satisfy this condition.

The Hamilton–Waterloo Problem for ‐Factors and ‐Factors

The Hamilton–Waterloo problem asks for a 2‐factorization of (for v odd) or minus a 1‐factor (for v even) into ‐factors and ‐factors. We completely solve the Hamilton–Waterloo problem in the case of C₃‐factors and ‐factors for .     

Evaluation and default time for companies with uncertain cash flows

In this study, we propose a modelling framework for evaluating companies financed by random liabilities, such as insurance companies or commercial banks. In this approach, earnings and costs are driven by double exponential jump–diffusion processes and bankruptcy is declared when the income falls below a default threshold, which is proportional to the charges. A change of numeraire, under the Esscher risk neutral measure, is used to reduce the dimension. A closed form expression for the value of equity is obtained in terms of the expected present value operators, with and without disinvestment delay. In both cases, we determine the default threshold that maximizes the shareholder’s equity. Subsequently, the probabilities of default are obtained by inverting the Laplace transform of the bankruptcy time. In numerical applications of the proposed model, we apply a procedure for calibration based on market and accounting data to explain the behaviour of shares for two real-world examples of insurance companies.     

The Order of Automorphisms of Quasigroups

We prove quadratic upper bounds on the order of any autotopism of a quasigroup or Latin square, and hence also on the order of any automorphism of a Steiner triple system or 1‐factorization of a complete graph. A corollary is that a permutation σ chosen uniformly at random from the symmetric group will almost surely not be an automorphism of a Steiner triple system of order n, a quasigroup of order n or a 1‐factorization of the complete graph . Nor will σ be one component of an autotopism for any Latin square of order n. For groups of order n it is known that automorphisms must have order less than n, but we show that quasigroups of order n can have automorphisms of order greater than n. The smallest such quasigroup has order 7034. We also show that quasigroups of prime order can possess autotopisms that consist of three permutations with different cycle structures. Our results answer three questions originally posed by D.  Stones.     

Perfect 1‐Factorizations of a Family of Cayley Graphs

A 1‐factorization of a graph G is a decomposition of G into edge‐disjoint 1‐factors (perfect matchings), and a perfect 1‐factorization is a 1‐factorization in which the union of any two of the 1‐factors is a Hamilton cycle. We consider the problem of the existence of perfect 1‐factorizations of even order 4‐regular Cayley graphs, with a particular interest in circulant graphs. In this paper, we study a new family of graphs, denoted , which are Cayley graphs if and only if k is even or . By solving the perfect 1‐factorization problem for a large class of graphs, we obtain a new class of 4‐regular bipartite circulant graphs that do not have a perfect 1‐factorization, answering a problem posed in 7 . With further study of graphs, we prove the nonexistence of P1Fs in a class of 4‐regular non‐bipartite circulant graphs, which is further support for a conjecture made in 7 .
