Magnetic and noise properties of as-deposited and annealed soft underlayer

We studied the magnetic and noise properties with various soft underlayer (SUL) types. For an as-deposited SUL, the results of spectrum, oscilloscope waveform and MFM indicated that the SUL types with IrMn pinning layer have more noise level than that of SUL types without IrMn pinning layer. And, after magnetic filed annealing along radial direction of disk, the exchange bias field increased and the noise level of type B (exchange bias type) decreased. These results reveal that incomplete or partial coupling may be generated at the interface between IrMn and ferromagnetic layer in as-deposited SUL. This incomplete coupling may result in complex or multidomain patterns in ferromagnetic layer.     

Stochastic quantization and path integral formulation of Fokker-Planck equation

The operator formalism (Fokker-Planck dynamics) associated to a general n-dimensional, non-linear drift, non-constant diffusion Fokker-Planck equation, is derived by a stochastic quantization from the corresponding path integral formulation in phase space.     

Word problems and ceers

This note addresses the issue as to which ceers can be realized by word problems of computably enumerable (or, simply, c.e.) structures (such as c.e. semigroups, groups, and rings), where being realized means to fall in the same reducibility degree (under the notion of reducibility for equivalence relations usually called “computable reducibility”), or in the same isomorphism type (with the isomorphism induced by a computable function), or in the same strong isomorphism type (with the isomorphism induced by a computable permutation of the natural numbers). We observe, e.g., that every ceer is isomorphic to the word problem of some c.e. semigroup, but (answering a question of Gao and Gerdes) not every ceer is in the same reducibility degree of the word problem of some finitely presented semigroup, nor is it in the same reducibility degree of some non-periodic semigroup. We also show that the ceer provided by provable equivalence of Peano Arithmetic is in the same strong isomorphism type as the word problem of some non-commutative and non-Boolean c.e. ring.     

An adaptive multilevel wavelet framework for scale‐selective WENO reconstruction schemes

We put forth a dynamic computing framework for scale‐selective adaptation of weighted essential nonoscillatory (WENO) schemes for the simulation of hyperbolic conservation laws exhibiting strong discontinuities. A multilevel wavelet‐based multiresolution procedure, embedded in a conservative finite volume formulation, is used for a twofold purpose. (i) a dynamic grid adaptation of the solution field for redistributing grid points optimally (in some sense) according to the underlying flow structures, and (ii) a dynamic minimization of the in built artificial dissipation of WENO schemes. Taking advantage of the structure detection properties of this multiresolution algorithm, the nonlinear weights of the conventional WENO implementation are selectively modified to ensure lower dissipation in smoother areas. This modification is implemented through a linear transition from the fifth‐order upwind stencil at the coarsest regions of the adaptive grid to a fully nonlinear fifth‐order WENO scheme at areas of high irregularity. Therefore, our computing algorithm consists of a dynamic grid adaptation strategy, a scale‐selective state reconstruction, a conservative flux calculation, and a total variation diminishing Runge‐Kutta scheme for time advancement. Results are presented for canonical examples drawn from the inviscid Burgers, shallow water, Euler, and magnetohydrodynamic equations. Our findings represent a novel direction for providing a scale‐selective dissipation process without a compromise on shock capturing behavior for conservation laws, which would be a strong contender for dynamic implicit large eddy simulation approaches.     

Limit cycles and detailed balance in Fokker-Planck equations

A class of non-linear Fokker Planck equations with exactly known steady state solution is investigated and its relation with the models considered earlier in the literature is discussed. A characterisation of the absence of detailed balance and possible existence of limit cycles is given. The implications of detailed balance on the existence and the character of limit cycle behaviour are studied. It is shown that detailed balance does not determine the existence or non-existence of limit cycles but rather their character.

A rank-three condition for invariant (1, 2)-symplectic almost Hermitian structures on flag manifolds

This paper considers invariant (1, 2)-symplectic almost Hermitian structures on the maximal flag manifod associated to a complex semi-simple Lie group G. The concept of cone-free invariant almost complex structure is introduced. It involves the rank-three subgroups of G, and generalizes the cone-free property for tournaments related to 𝕊l (n,ℂ) case. It is proved that the cone-free property is necessary for an invariant almost-complex structure to take part in an invariant (1, 2)-symplectic almost Hermitian structure. It is also sufficient if the Lie group is not B _l , l ≥ 3, G ₂ or F ₄. For B _l and F ₄ a close condition turns out to be sufficient. Received: 28 October 2001     

A normal criterion about two families of meromorphic functions concerning shared values

In this paper, we mainly discuss the normality of two families of functions concerning shared values and proved: Let F and G be two families of functions meromorphic on a domain D■C,a1, a2, a3, a4 be four distinct finite complex numbers. If G is normal, and for every f ∈ F , there exists g ∈ G such that f(z) and g(z) share the values a1, a2, a3, a4, then F is normal on D.     

Efficient statistical inference for partially nonlinear errors-in-variables models

In this paper, we consider the partially nonlinear errors-in-variables models when the non- parametric component is measured with additive error. The profile nonlinear least squares estimator of unknown parameter and the estimator of nonparametric component are constructed, and their asymptotic properties are derived under general assumptions. Finite sample performances of the proposed statistical inference procedures are illustrated by Monte Carlo simulation studies.     

Decay estimates for nonlinear nonlocal diffusion problems in the whole space

In this paper, we obtain bounds for the decay rate in the L ^r (? ^d )-norm for the solutions of a nonlocal and nonlinear evolution equation, namely, $$u_t \left( {x,t} \right) = \int_{\mathbb{R}^d } {K\left( {x,y} \right)\left| {u\left( {y,t} \right) - u\left( {x,t} \right)} \right|^{p - 2} \left( {u\left( {y,t} \right) - u\left( {x,t} \right)} \right)dy, x \in \mathbb{R}^d , t > 0.}$$ . We consider a kernel of the form K(x, y) = ψ(y?a(x)) + ψ(x?a(y)), where ψ is a bounded, nonnegative function supported in the unit ball and a is a linear function a(x) = Ax. To obtain the decay rates, we derive lower and upper bounds for the first eigenvalue of a nonlocal diffusion operator of the form $$T\left( u \right) = - \int_{\mathbb{R}^d } {K\left( {x,y} \right)\left| {u\left( y \right) - u\left( x \right)} \right|^{p - 2} \left( {u\left( y \right) - u\left( x \right)} \right)dy, 1 \leqslant p < \infty .}$$ . The upper and lower bounds that we obtain are sharp and provide an explicit expression for the first eigenvalue in the whole space ? ^d : $$\lambda _{1,p} \left( {\mathbb{R}^d } \right) = 2\left( {\int_{\mathbb{R}^d } {\psi \left( z \right)dz} } \right)\left| {\frac{1} {{\left| {\det A} \right|^{1/p} }} - 1} \right|^p .$$ Moreover, we deal with the p = ∞ eigenvalue problem, studying the limit of λ _1,p ^1/p as p→∞.
