Conformally invariant tensors of an almost Hermitian manifold associated with the holomorphic curvature tensor

We consider an almost Hermitian manifold and apply the conformal change of metric to its holomorphic curvature tensor. In such a way we find that the generalized Bochner curvature tensor can be expressed as a linear combination of B ₁, B ₂, and B ₃ such that (6.4) holds. Each of the tensors B ₁, B ₂, B ₃ is conformally invariant and satisfies the condition (1.2) of K?hler type.     

Scalar mesons moving in a finite volume and the role of partial wave mixing

Phase shifts and resonance parameters can be obtained from finite-volume lattice spectra for interacting pairs of particles, moving with non-zero total momentum. We present a simple derivation of the method that is subsequently applied to obtain the ?Ц? and ??K phase shifts in the sectors with total isospin I = 0 and I = 1/2 , respectively. Considering different total momenta, one obtains extra data points for a given volume that allow for a very efficient extraction of the resonance parameters in the infinite-volume limit. Corrections due to the mixing of partial waves are provided. We expect that our results will help to optimize the strategies in lattice simulations, which aim at an accurate determination of the scattering and resonance properties.     

Merging and splitting in cooperative games: some (im)possibility results

Allocation rules for cooperative games can be manipulated by coalitions merging into single players, or, conversely, players splitting into a number of smaller units. This paper collects some (im)possibility results on merging- and splitting-proofness of (core) allocation rules for cooperative games with side-payments.
