Pure uterine lipoma

Lipomatous tumors of the uterus are unusual, benign neoplasms seen in postmenopausal women. Although many of the mixed-type cases such as lipoleiomyoma and fibrolipoma have been reported, pure uterine lipomas are extremely rare. In the literature, a few cases with pure uterine lipoma have been reported. We first present the advanced magnetic resonance findings of pure uterine lipoma, followed by those of ultrasonography (US) and computed tomography (CT). We markedly detected lipid peaks on the magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and the apparent diffusion coefficient value to be 0.00 due to chemical-shift effects with diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). Although pelvic lipomatous tumors can be diagnosed with US and CT, in some cases, further workup may be required to localize the lesion. MRI may yield more valuable data for differential diagnosis. MRS and DWI findings provide additional clues on the nature of the lesion.     

Comparison of Tomography Methods for Pure and Almost Pure Quantum States

JETP Letters - Quantum tomography is the most informative tool for estimating the quality of preparation and transformation of quantum states. Its development is crucially necessary for debugging...     

Pure operations and measurements

States of a quantum system may be influenced by an external intervention. FollowingHaag andKastler, such a transformation of states is called an operation, and is called pure if it transforms pure states into pure states. Operations are discussed here under the assumption that they are caused by interactions with another system (apparatus), described by aS matrix. Pure operations are then shown to correspond, with one exception, to operatorsA with norm smaller than one. The Hermitean operatorsF=A*A represent quantum effects as defined axiomatically byLudwig. The particular case of local operations in quantum field theory is also investigated.Supported in part by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft.     

The Character of Pure Spinors

The character of holomorphic functions on the space of pure spinors in 10, 11 and 12 dimensions is calculated. From this character formula, we derive in a manifestly covariant way various central charges which appear in the pure spinor formalism for the superstring. We also derive in a simple way the zero momentum cohomology of the pure spinor BRST operator for the D=10 and D=11 superparticle Mathematics Subject Classifications (2000): 81T30, 83E30, 83E50     

Pure spinors and quadric Grassmanians

If, following E. Cartan, the simplest spinors (pure) are conceived as equivalent to isotropic (or null or optical) polarized planes in complex spaces, then the most natural tensors generated (bilinearly) by the simplest spinors are isotropic vectors rather than ordinary linear ones. The conjecture that spinors are fundamental would then imply that non-linear geometry of isotropic elements should be more elementary in general than the linear one; and the relevance of optical geometry (optical flags, optical groups) on space-time manifolds for the explanation of optical phenomenology in the frame of general relativity [5] could already constitute a first confirmation of this conjecture.Only 2- and 4-component spinors build up linear spinor spaces while 8, 16, 32,...component pure spinors, instead, are subject to covariant (quadratic) constraint equations and build up non-linear sets isomorphic, up to a sign, to quadric Grassmanians and, for neutral and conformal spaces, to Lie groups.The possible relevance of such pure spinor properties for physics is conjectured and exemplified.     

Pure States Don't Wear Black

Recently, string theory has provided some remarkable new insights into the microphysics of black holes. I argue that a simple and important lesson is also provided with regards to the information loss paradox, namely, pure quantum states do not form black holes! Thus it seems black hole formation, as well as evaporation, must be understood within the framework of quantum decoherence.     

Relativity of Pure States Entanglement

Entanglement of any pure state of an N×N bi-partite quantum system may be characterized by the vector of coefficients arising by its Schmidt decomposition. We analyze various measures of entanglement derived from the generalized entropies of the vector of Schmidt coefficients. For N≥3 they generate different ordering in the set of pure states and for some states their ordering depends on the measure of entanglement used. This odd-looking property is acceptable, since these incomparable states cannot be transformed to each other with unit efficiency by any local operation. In analogy to special relativity the set of pure states equivalent under local unitaries has a causal structure so that at each point the set splits into three parts: the “Future,” the “Past,” and the set of noncomparable states.     

Pure Partition Functions of Multiple SLEs

Multiple Schramm–Loewner Evolutions (SLE) are conformally invariant random processes of several curves, whose construction by growth processes relies on partition functions—Möbius covariant solutions to a system of second order partial differential equations. In this article, we use a quantum group technique to construct a distinguished basis of solutions, which conjecturally correspond to the extremal points of the convex set of probability measures of multiple SLEs.     

Pure spin photocurrents in low-dimensional structures

As is well known, the absorption of circularly polarized light in semiconductors results in optical orientation of electron spins and helicity-dependent electric photocurrent, and the absorption of linearly polarized light is accompanied by optical alignment of electron momenta. Here, we show that the absorption of unpolarized light leads to the generation of a pure spin current, although both the average electron spin and electric current vanish. We demonstrate this for direct interband and intersubband as well as indirect intraband (Drude-like) optical transitions in semiconductor quantum wells.     

The Properties of Pure Neutron Star

For a given equation of state of neutron matter in the relativistic σ-ω model, ๏๏๏๏๏ including the vacuum fluctuation of neutron and σ meson, the properties of pure neutron star are studied. We find that the maximum mass of pure neutron star is ～ 2.0 M_{\odot}. At the same time, the influence of incompressibility of the nuclear matter to the properties of neutron star is also studied. We also find that the maximum mass of neutron stars decreases as equation of state of neutron matter becomes softer.     

Pure operations and the covering law

The paper is devoted to the study of properties of pure operations. The main results are: Axiomatic characterization of pure operations consisting in a precise formulation of their basic properties and the representation theorem, which shows that pure operations possessing these (axiomatically defined) properties and satisfying the so-called Compatibility Postulate are in fact the usual ones, of special kind, defined by the well-known formula. The other main result of the paper is the justification of the covering law in the logic of propositions, which is shown here to follow from the Compatibility Postulate, the latter being of direct physical significance.     

On Superconductivity State in Pure Graphene

We study theoretically the possibility of superconductivity state in pure graphene within the extended attractive Hubbard model. In the absence of disorder, when we use the local attractive interaction potential, U ≌ 5t, where t is hopping term, pure graphene can be in superconductivity state.

Pure odd-order oscillators with constant excitation

In this paper the excited vibrations of a truly nonlinear oscillator are analyzed. The excitation is assumed to be constant and the nonlinearity is pure (without a linear term). The mathematical model is a second-order nonhomogeneous differential equation with strong nonlinear term. Using the first integral, the exact value of period of vibration i.e., angular frequency of oscillator described with a pure nonlinear differential equation with constant excitation is analytically obtained. The closed form solution has the form of gamma function. The period of vibration depends on the value of excitation and of the order and coefficient of the nonlinear term. For the case of pure odd-order-oscillators the approximate solution of differential equation is obtained in the form of trigonometric function. The solution is based on the exact value of period of vibration. For the case when additional small perturbation of the pure oscillator acts, the so called ‘Cveticanin's averaging method’ for a truly nonlinear oscillator is applied. Two special cases are considered: one, when the additional term is a function of distance, and the second, when damping acts. To prove the correctness of the method the obtained results are compared with those for the linear oscillator. Example of pure cubic oscillator with constant excitation and linear damping is widely discussed. Comparing the analytically obtained results with exact numerical ones it is concluded that they are in a good agreement. The investigations reported in the paper are of special interest for those who are dealing with the problem of vibration reduction in the oscillator with constant excitation and pure nonlinear restoring force the examples of which can be found in various scientific and engineering systems. For example, such mechanical systems are seats in vehicles, supports for machines, cutting machines with periodical motion of the cutting tools, presses, etc. The examples can be find in electronics (electromechanical devices like micro-actuators and micro oscillators), in music instruments (hammers in piano), in human voice producing folds (voice cords), etc.     

Equilibrium Pure States and Nonequilibrium Chaos

We consider nonequilibrium systems such as the Edwards–Anderson Ising spin glass at a temperature where, in equilibrium, there are presumed to be (two or many) broken-symmetry pure states. Following a deep quench, we argue that as time t, although the system is usually in some pure state locally, either it never settles permanently on a fixed length scale into a single pure state, or it does, but then the pure state depends on both the initial spin configuration and the realization of the stochastic dynamics. But this latter case can occur only if there exists an uncountable number of pure states (for each coupling realization) with almost every pair having zero overlap. In both cases, almost no initial spin configuration is in the basin of attraction of a single pure state; that is, the configuration space (resulting from a deep quench) is all boundary (except for a set of measure zero). We prove that the former case holds for deeply quenched 2D ferromagnets. Our results raise the possibility that even if more than one pure state exists for an infinite system, time averages do not necessarily disagree with Boltzmann averages.
