Method of systems of equations of P-adic coverages for fractal analysis of events

Self-similarity in high-energy multiparticle production processes is discussed. A parton shower and hadronization are assumed to give rise to a set of particle with a fractal structure. It is noted that the box counting (BC) and P-adic coverage (PaC) methods determine the fractal dimension with permissible 1/k ranges. A new method of systems of equations of P-adic coverages (SePaC) is proposed that extends the PaC method to fractals with permissible m/k ranges. The SePaC method is shown to determine the fractal dimension of a shower with a prescribed accuracy, the number of fractal levels, the type of the cascade (random or regular), and its structure.     

FRACTAL PATTERN GROWTH OF METAL ATOM CLUSTERS IN ION IMPLANTED POLYMERS

The fractal and multi-fractal patterns of metal atoms are observed in the surface layer and cross section of a metal ion implanted polymer using TEM and SEM for the first time. The surface structure in the metal ion implanted polyethylene terephthalane (PET) is the random fractal. Certain average quantities of the random geometric patterns contain self-similarity. Some growth origins appeared in the fractal pattern which has a dimension of 1.67. The network structure of the fractal patterns is formed in cross section, having a fractal dimension of 1.87. So it can be seen that the fractal pattern is three-dimensional space fractal. We also find the collision cascade fractal in the cross section of implanted nylon, which is similar to the collision cascade pattern in transverse view calculated by the TRIM computer program. Finally, the mechanism for the formation and growth of the fractal patterns during ion implantation is discussed.     

Analysis of fractals with combined partition

The space—time properties in the general theory of relativity, as well as the discreteness and non-Archimedean property of space in the quantum theory of gravitation, are discussed. It is emphasized that the properties of bodies in non-Archimedean spaces coincide with the properties of the field of P-adic numbers and fractals. It is suggested that parton showers, used for describing interactions between particles and nuclei at high energies, have a fractal structure. A mechanism of fractal formation with combined partition is considered. The modified SePaC method is offered for the analysis of such fractals. The BC, PaC, and SePaC methods for determining a fractal dimension and other fractal characteristics (numbers of levels and values of a base of forming a fractal) are considered. It is found that the SePaC method has advantages for the analysis of fractals with combined partition.     

Analysis of fractals with dependent branching by box counting, P-adic coverages, and systems of equations of P-adic coverages

Concept of the dimension of space-time in the general relativity theory and quantum theory is discussed. It is emphasized that the dimension of a discrete space can be defined based on the Hausdorff measure. The noninteger dimension is a typical characteristic of a fractal. The process of hadron formation in interactions between high-energy particles and nuclei is supposed to possess fractal properties. The following methods for analyzing fractals are considered: box counting (BC), method of P-adic coverages (PaC), and method of systems of equations of P-adic coverages (SePaC), for determining the fractal dimension. A comparative analysis of fractals with dependent branching is performed using these methods. We determine the optimum values of parameters permitting one to determine the fractal dimension D _F , number of levels N _lev, and the fractal structure with maximal efficiency. It is noted that the SePaC method has advantages in analyzing fractals with dependent branching.     

QED radiative correction for the single-W production using a parton shower method

A parton shower method for the photonic radiative correction is applied to single W-boson production processes. The energy scale for the evolution of the parton shower is determined so that the correct soft-photon emission is reproduced. Photon spectra radiated from the partons are compared with those from the exact matrix elements, and show a good agreement. Possible errors due to an inappropriate energy-scale selection or due to the ambiguity of the energy-scale determination are also discussed, particularly for the measurements on triple gauge couplings.

Generic fractal structure of finite parts of trajectories of piecewise smooth Hamiltonian systems

Piecewise smooth Hamiltonian systems with tangent discontinuity are studied. A new phenomenon is discovered, namely, the generic chaotic behavior of finite parts of trajectories. The approach is to consider the evolution of Poisson brackets for smooth parts of the initial Hamiltonian system. It turns out that, near second-order singular points lying on a discontinuity stratum of codimension two, the system of Poisson brackets is reduced to the Hamiltonian system of the Pontryagin Maximum Principle. The corresponding optimization problem is studied and the topological structure of its optimal trajectories is constructed (optimal synthesis). The synthesis contains countably many periodic solutions on the quotient space by the scale group and a Cantor-like set of nonwandering points (NW) having fractal Hausdorff dimension. The dynamics of the system is described by a topological Markov chain. The entropy is evaluated, together with bounds for the Hausdorff and box dimension of (NW).     

Bispectrum Analysis of One-Dimensional Regular Fractals with Additive Random Noise

The bispectrum of the Cantor set that is a typical regular fractal is calculated and its fractalities are shown. A relation between the bispectrum and the fractal dimension of the object is elucidated. Effects of additive random noise on the scaling property of the bispectrum are compared with those of the corresponding power spectrum.     

Comparison of fractal analysis methods in the study of fractals with independent branching

The notion of dimension as a quantitative characteristic of space geometry is discussed. It is supposed that hadrons created in interactions between particles and nuclei can be considered sets of points possessing fractal properties in the three-dimensional phase space (p _T , η, ?). The Hausdorff-Besicovich dimension D _F is considered the most natural characteristic for determining the fractal dimension. Different methods for determining the fractal dimension are compared: box counting (BC), P-adic coverage (PaC), and system of equations of P-adic coverage (SePaC). A procedure for choosing optimum values of parameters of the considered methods is presented. These parameters are shown to be able to reconstruct the fractal dimension D _F , number of levels N _lev, and fractal structure with maximal efficiency. The features of the PaC- and SePaC-methods in the analysis of fractals with independent branching are noted.

A highly efficient algorithm for the generation of random fractal aggregates

A technique to generate random fractal aggregates where the fractal dimension is fixed a priori is presented. The algorithm utilizes the box-counting measure of the fractal dimension to determine the number of hypercubes required to encompass the aggregate, on a set of length scales, over which the structure can be defined as fractal. At each length scale the hypercubes required to generate the structure are chosen using a simple random walk which ensures connectivity of the aggregate. The algorithm is highly efficient and overcomes the limitations on the magnitude of the fractal dimension encountered by previous techniques.     

A box-covering algorithm for fractal scaling in scale-free networks

A random sequential box-covering algorithm recently introduced to measure the fractal dimension in scale-free (SF) networks is investigated. The algorithm contains Monte Carlo sequential steps of choosing the position of the center of each box; thereby, vertices in preassigned boxes can divide subsequent boxes into more than one piece, but divided boxes are counted once. We find that such box-split allowance in the algorithm is a crucial ingredient necessary to obtain the fractal scaling for fractal networks; however, it is inessential for regular lattice and conventional fractal objects embedded in the Euclidean space. Next, the algorithm is viewed from the cluster-growing perspective that boxes are allowed to overlap; thereby, vertices can belong to more than one box. The number of distinct boxes a vertex belongs to is, then, distributed in a heterogeneous manner for SF fractal networks, while it is of Poisson-type for the conventional fractal objects.     

Fractal based observables to probe jet substructure of quarks and gluons

New jet observables are defined which characterize both fractal and scale-dependent contributions to the distribution of hadrons in a jet. These infrared safe observables, named Extended Fractal Observables (EFOs), have been applied to quark–gluon discrimination to demonstrate their potential utility. The EFOs are found to be individually discriminating and only weakly correlated to variables used in existing discriminators. Consequently, their inclusion improves discriminator performance, as here demonstrated with particle level simulation from the parton shower.     

Forward jet production in deep inelastic scattering at HERA

The inclusive forward jet cross section in deep inelastic e⁺pe^+p scattering has been measured in the region of x-Bjorken, 4.5 ·10^-44.5 \cdot 10^{-4} to 4.5 ·10^-24.5 \cdot 10^{-2}. This measurement is motivated by the search for effects of BFKL-like parton shower evolution. The cross section at hadron level as a function of x is compared to cross sections predicted by various Monte Carlo models. An excess of forward jet production at small x is observed, which is not reproduced by models based on DGLAP parton shower evolution. The Colour Dipole model describes the data reasonably well. Predictions of perturbative QCD calculations at the parton level based on BFKL and DGLAP parton evolution are discussed in the context of this measurement.

A parton shower model for hadronic two-photon process in e+e− scattering

A new model of QCD parton shower is proposed which is dedicated to two-photon processes in e⁺e^? scattering. When hadron jets are produced, the photon may resolve into quark-antiquark pairs so that the structure functions of the photon should be introduced. Based on the Altarelli-Parisi equation for these functions, an algorithm is formulated that allows us to construct a model for parton showers for the photon. Our model consists of two parts, one of which describes the deep inelastic scattering of the photon and the other one the scattering of two quasi-real photons. Using the model some results are presented on parton distributions and jet production.     

An universal relation between fractal and Euclidean (topological) dimensions of random systems

It is shown that a dimension-invariant form for fractal dimension D of random systems (where d is Euclidean dimension of the embedding space) is in good agreement with results of numerical simulations performed by different authors for critical (p=p _c ) and subcritical (p<p _c ) percolation, for lattice animals, and for different aggregation processes.

A practical method to experimentally evaluate the Hausdorff dimension: an alternative phase-transition-based methodology

We introduce a methodology to estimate numerically the Hausdorff dimension of a geometric set. This practical method has been conceived as a subsequent tool of another context study, associated to our concern to distinguish between various fractal sets. Its conception is natural since it can be related to the original idea involved in the definitions of Hausdorff measure and Hausdorff dimension. It is based on the critical behavior of the measure spectrum functions of the set around its Hausdorff dimension value. We illustrate on several well-known examples, the ability of this method to accurately estimate the Hausdorff dimension. Also, we show how the transition property, exhibited by the quantities used as substitutes of the Hausdorff measure in the corresponding fractal dimension relationships, can be used to accurately estimate the fractal dimension. To show the potential of our method, we also report the results of Hausdorff dimension measurements on some typical examples, compared to a direct application of the scaling relation involved in the box-counting dimension definition.
