Exact Results for Topological Strings on Resolved <Emphasis Type="Italic">Y</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic"> p</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis></Superscript> Singularities

We obtain exact results in α′ for open and closed A-model topological string amplitudes on a large class of toric Calabi-Yau threefolds by using their correspondence with five dimensional gauge theories. The toric Calabi-Yaus that we analyze are obtained as minimal resolution of cones over Y ^p,q manifolds and give rise via M-theory compactification to SU(p) gauge theories on . As an application we present a detailed study of the local case and compute open and closed genus zero Gromov-Witten invariants of the orbifold. We also display the modular structure of the topological wave function and give predictions for higher genus amplitudes. The mirror curve in this case is the spectral curve of the relativistic A ₁ Toda chain. Our results also indicate the existence of a wider class of relativistic integrable systems associated to generic Y ^p,q geometries.     

Multiplicity dependence of <Emphasis Type="Italic">z</Emphasis> scaling for identified hadrons

The multiplicity dependence of inclusive spectra of identified hadrons (π, K, , K _S ⁰ , and Λ) produced in high-energy p and pp collisions is studied. Analysis of experimental data on high-p _T hadron cross sections obtained at the Tevatron and RHIC is performed in the framework of z scaling. Independence of the scaling function ψ(z) on the multiplicity density dN _ch/dη is established. The multiplicity density measured in nucleon-nucleon collisions reaches much higher values than the corresponding quantity [1/(0.5N _p)]dN _ch/dη obtained in heavy-ion collisions. Its influence on particle production reveals properties of self-similarity and fractality. The relation between the scaling variable z and thermodynamic quantities (“heat capacity” and “temperature”) of the medium associated with the produced inclusive particle is discussed. Search for z-scaling violation in p and pp collisions at very high multiplicities as an indication of new-physics phenomena is suggested. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

On the LHC observation of gluinos from the Egret-preferred region

Prospects for observation of a SUSY-like signal from two gluinos are investigated within a certain region of the mSUGRA parameter space, where the cross section of the two-gluino production in pp-collisions at the LHC ( = 14 TeV) is estimated at a rather high level of 17.3 pb. In this so-called EGRET-preferred region, the lightest stable neutralinos χ ₁⁰ can serve as cold-dark-matter particles and can naturally explain the excess of diffuse Galactic gamma rays observed by the EGRET space apparatus. The -event selection relies on a clear signature when decay products of each gluino contain one b pair, one or two l pair(s) or one or two light q pair(s), and a neutralino. Rather high transverse missing energy carried away by the two neutralinos is the essential signature of the events using of which allows the relevant Standard Model background to be reduced significantly. Furthermore, distributions of the reconstructed invariant masses of two opposite-charged-lepton or light-jet pairs produced by the χ ₂⁰ → χ ₁⁰ l ⁺ l ⁻ and χ ₂⁰ → χ ₁⁰ q three-body decays have kinematic end points which measure the difference between masses of χ ₂⁰ and χ ₁⁰. In particular, it was found that these signatures of selected processes demonstrate good prospects for discovery of gluinos at the LHC. These signatures allow one to distinguish different mSUGRA parameters m _1/2 within the EGRET-preferred region (at a higher than 6σ confidence level with 300 fb⁻¹ data).

Symmetry and optical properties of wurtzite nanostructures with the <Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis> axis in the layer plane

In wurtzite-based quantum wells and superlattices with the c axis parallel to the layer plane, this plane is parallel either to a symmetry plane of the wurtzite lattice (type I structures, the 〈110〉 growth direction) or to a glide plane containing the c axis (type II structures, the 〈100〉 growth direction). In both cases, the space symmetry of the structure depends on the parity of the number of monolayers within the slab(s). The point symmetry is C _2v except for the type II structures with odd monolayer number(s). The latter structures have the σ _v point symmetry and can have a built-in electric field. Quite different selection rules, depending on the structure symmetry, govern electron optical transitions and exciton radiative recombination.

Algebrodynamics over complex space and phase extension of the Minkowski geometry

First principles should predetermine physical geometry and dynamics both together. In the “algebrodynamics” they follow solely from the properties of biquaternion algebra and the analysis over . We briefly present the algebrodynamics over Minkowski background based on a nonlinear generalization to of the Cauchi-Riemann analyticity conditions. Further, we consider the effective real geometry uniquely resulting from the structure of multiplication and found it to be of the Minkowski type, with an additional phase invariant. Then we pass to study the primordial dynamics that takes place in the complex space and brings into consideration a number of remarkable structures: an ensemble of identical correlated matter pre-elements (“duplicons”), caustic-like signals (interaction carriers), a concept of random complex time resulting in irreversibility of physical time at macrolevel, etc. In partucular, the concept of “dimerous electron” naturally arises in the framework of complex algebrodynamics and, together with the above-mentioned phase invariant, allows for a novel approach to explanation of quantum interference phenomena alternative to recently accepted wave—particle dualism paradigm.

Status of the investigation of the spin structure of d, 3H, and 3He at VBLHE using polarized and unpolarized deuteron beam

The investigation of the spin structure of d, ³H, and ³He has been performed at the RIKEN acceleration research facility and VBLHE. Vector A _y and tensor A _yy , A _xx , A _xz analyzing powers for d → ³Hen and d → ³Hp are presented at 270 MeV. Themirror channels (³Hen and ³Hp) are comparedto each other in order to find possible manifestation of charge-symmetry breaking. The preliminary results on the polarization observables for d → ³Hp at 200MeV are also presented. The obtained data are compared with one-nucleon-exchange calculations.As a byproduct, d → pX and ¹²C → pX breakup reactions are investigated at 140, 200, and 270MeV. The experimental data on p elastic scattering were obtained at 270, 880, and 2000 MeV at the Nuclotron. The polarization of the deuteron beam was measured at 270 MeV at the internal target station. The preliminary data on the vector A _y and tensor A _yy , A _xx analyzing powers for the p elastic scattering at 880 MeV are presented. The calculations on A _y , A _yy , and A _xx analyzing powers for the p elastic scattering at 880 MeV were performed in the framework of the multiple-scattering model.

For the Lie algebra _N we introduce a system of differential operators called the dynamical operators. We prove that the dynamical differential operators commute with the _N rational quantized Knizhnik–Zamolodchikov difference operators.

Local Resolvent Estimates for <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-body Stark Hamiltonians

For an N-body Stark Hamiltonian , the resolvent estimate holds uniformly in with Re and Im , where , and is a compact interval. This estimate is well known as the limiting absorption principle. In this paper, we report that by introducing the localization in the configuration space, a refined resolvent estimate holds uniformly in with Re and Im .

On the two-loop $$ \ma thcal{O} $$( αs2) correc tions to the pole mass of the t quark in the MSSM

The paper is devoted to the calculation of two-loop (α _s ²) MSSM corrections to the relation between the pole mass of the t quark and its running mass in the scheme. Firstly, the value of the second-order contribution from large-mass expansion in mt/M _SUSY is studied. Contrary to our expectations, this contribution turned out to be negligible. As a by-product of this calculation, the two-loop anomalous dimension of the running quark mass is obtained in the supersymmetric QCD. Secondly, the influence of the two-loop corrections to the t-quark mass on the predicted superpartner masses is investigated. The text was submitted by the authors in English.

On the leptonic decay of a heavy quarkonium with a Higgs-boson emission

The leptonic () decay of a heavy quark-antiquark bound state T( Q) with a Higgs-boson H emission is investigated. Applying the low-energy theorem to meson-Higgs coupling allows one to estimate the probability of the decay T( Q) → H. Only the simple version of the Standard Model extension containing two-Higgs doublet is considered. The text was submitted by the author in English.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">X</Emphasis>(3872) and other possible heavy molecular states

We perform a systematic study of the possible molecular states composed of a pair of heavy mesons such as , , in the framework of the meson exchange model. The exchanged mesons include the pseudoscalar, scalar and vector mesons. Through our investigation, we find the following results. (1) The structure X(3764) is not a molecular state. (2) There exists strong attraction in the range r<1 fm for the system with J=0,1. If future experiments confirm Z ⁺(4051) as a loosely bound molecular state, its quantum number is probably J ^P =0⁺. Its partner state Φ ^**0 may be searched for in the π ⁰ χ _c1 channel. (3) Vector meson exchange provides strong attraction in the channel together with pion exchange. A bound state solution may exist with a reasonable cutoff parameter Λ∼1.4 GeV. X(3872) may be accommodated as a molecular state dynamically although drawing a very definite conclusion needs further investigation. (4) The molecular state may exist.     

CP-violation and unitarity triangle test of the Standard Model

Phenomenological issues of CP violation in the quark sector of the Standard Model are discussed. We consider quark mixing in the SM, standard, and Wolfenstein parametrization of the CKM mixing matrix and unitarity triangle. We discuss the phenomenology of CP violation in K _L ⁰ and B _d ⁰()-decays. The standard unitarity triangle fit of the existing data is discussed. In appendix A we compare the K ⁰ ⇆ , B _d,s ⁰ ⇆ , etc. oscillations with neutrino oscillations. In Appendix B we derive the evolution equation for the M − system in the Weisskopf-Wigner approximation. The text was submitted by the author in English.     

On pair production of scalar top quarks in <Emphasis Type="Italic">e</Emphasis><Superscript>+</Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">e</Emphasis><Superscript>−</Superscript> collisions at ILC and a possibility of their mass reconstruction

We study pair production of scalar top quarks (stop, ) in e ⁺ e ⁻ collisions with the subsequent decay of the top squarks into b quarks and charginos . We simulate this process by using PYTHIA6.4 for the beam energy 2E _b = = 350, 400, 500, 800, 1000 GeV. A set of criteria for physical variables is proposed, which provides good separation of stop signal events from top quark pair production being the main background. These criteria allow us to reconstruct the mass of the top squark with an integrated luminosity of 1000 fb⁻¹ provided that the neutralino mass is known.

The Branch Processes of Chern-Simons (CS) <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Branes

In this paper, by making use of Duan’s topological current theory, the branch process of Chern-Simons (CS) p-branes is discussed in detail. Chern-Simons (CS) p-branes are found generating or annihilating at the limit points and encountering, splitting, or merging at the bifurcation points and higher degenerated points systematically of the vector order parameter field . Furthermore, it is also shown that CS p-branes are found splitting or merging at the degenerate point of field function but the total topological charges of the CS p-branes are still unchanged.     

Trajectory attractors for dissipative 2D Euler and Navier-Stokes equations

A trajectory attractor is constructed for the 2D Euler system containing an additional dissipation term −ru, r > 0, with periodic boundary conditions. The corresponding dissipative 2D Navier-Stokes system with the same term −ru and with viscosity v > 0 also has a trajectory attractor, . Such systems model large-scale geophysical processes in atmosphere and ocean (see [1]). We prove that → as v → 0+ in the corresponding metric space. Moreover, we establish the existence of the minimal limit of the trajectory attractors as v → 0+. We prove that is a connected invariant subset of . The connectedness problem for the trajectory attractor by itself remains open.
