Effective manipulation of Andreev bound states,zero mode Majorana fermion and Josephson current in a superconductor–normal–superconductor junction on the surface of a topological insulator

We study the effective manipulation of the Andreev bound states (ABS), zero mode Majorana fermion and Josephson current (JC) in a superconductor–normal–superconductor junction on the surface of a topological insulator in unexplored regime of parameters. It is found that the energy of the ABS changes dramatically with the phase difference between both superconductors (SCs) in a certain range of the incident angle of quasiparticles. It is shown that the velocity of Majorana fermion and the JC can be effectively tuned in a wide range of the chemical potential in the normal region (_μN${\mu }_N$) and the separation width (L  ) of the two SCs. In addition, we expose that the critical JC and its product with the normal resistance are, respectively, a quarter and the same to those in a graphene-based Josephson junction. The dependence of the critical JC on the chemical potential in the superconducting region is not monotonous: it increases (decreases) for small (large) _μN${\mu }_N$.     

Minihypers and Linear Codes Meeting the Griesmer Bound: Improvements to Results of Hamada, Helleseth and Maekawa

This article improves results of Hamada, Helleseth and Maekawa on minihypers in projective spaces and linear codes meeting the Griesmer bound.In [10,12],it was shown that any -minihyper, with , where , is the disjoint union of points, lines,..., -dimensional subspaces. For q large, we improve on this result by increasing the upper bound on non-square, to non-square, square, , and (4) for square, p prime, p<3, to . In the case q non-square, the conclusion is the same as written above; the minihyper is the disjoint union of subspaces. When q is square however, the minihyper is either the disjoint union of subspaces, or the disjoint union of subspaces and one subgeometry . For the coding-theoretical problem, our results classify the corresponding codes meeting the Griesmer bound.     

Scale Invariance Properties in the Simulated Annealing Algorithm

The Boltzmann distribution used in the steady-state analysis of the simulated annealing algorithm gives rise to several scale invariant properties. Scale invariance is first presented in the context of parallel independent processors and then extended to an abstract form based on lumping states together to form new aggregate states. These lumped or aggregate states possess all of the mathematical characteristics, forms and relationships of states (solutions) in the original problem in both first and second moments. These scale invariance properties therefore permit new ways of relating objective function values, conditional expectation values, stationary probabilities, rates of change of stationary probabilities and conditional variances. Such properties therefore provide potential applications in analysis, statistical inference and optimization. Directions for future research that take advantage of scale invariance are also discussed.     

On error bounds for lower semicontinuous functions

We give some sufficient conditions for proper lower semicontinuous functions on metric spaces to have error bounds (with exponents). For a proper convex function f on a normed space X the existence of a local error bound implies that of a global error bound. If in addition X is a Banach space, then error bounds can be characterized by the subdifferential of f. In a reflexive Banach space X, we further obtain several sufficient and necessary conditions for the existence of error bounds in terms of the lower Dini derivative of f.
