在序限制下的统计推断是统计分析中的一个重要领域，保序回归理论在这个领域中起着关键性的作用。多维保序回归是一维保序回归的推广，本文给出了k=2,p=2时多维保序回归的求解方法。令Xij,j=1,2…，n是来自总体为二维正态分布N（μi，Λ)的样本，这是μi是未知的，Λ是已知的，i=1,2。令μ=（μ1,μ2)，-={（μ1,μ2)|μ1,μ∈R^2,}-0={(μ1,μ2)|μ1≤μ2,μ1，μ2∈R^2}。μ1≤μ2表示μ2-μ1的每一个分量为非负。本文也讨论了假设检验问题H0:μ∈-0,H1:μ∈-0=---0(H0是零假设）。     

Skew Schubert polynomials

We define skew Schubert polynomials to be normal form (polynomial) representatives of certain classes in the cohomology of a flag manifold. We show that this definition extends a recent construction of Schubert polynomials due to Bergeron and Sottile in terms of certain increasing labeled chains in Bruhat order of the symmetric group. These skew Schubert polynomials expand in the basis of Schubert polynomials with nonnegative integer coefficients that are precisely the structure constants of the cohomology of the complex flag variety with respect to its basis of Schubert classes. We rederive the construction of Bergeron and Sottile in a purely combinatorial way, relating it to the construction of Schubert polynomials in terms of rc-graphs.

     

A fractional order hyperchaotic system derived from Liu system and its circuit realization

In this paper we propose a novel four-dimensional fractional order hyperchaotic system derived from Liu system. Electronics workbench (EWB) and Matlab simulations show the dynamical behavior of the proposed four-dimensional fractional order hyperchaotic system. Finally, after separately using EWB and Matlab, an electronic circuit is designed to realize the novel four-dimensional fractional order hyperchaotic system and the experimental circuit results are obtained which are identical to software simulations.     

亚铁磁Heusler合金Mn2CoGa和Mn2CoAl掺杂Cr,Fe和Co的局域铁磁结构

通过实验和计算的方法研究了Mn₂CoM_xGa_1-x 和Mn₂CoM_xAl_1-x (M=Cr, Fe, Co)掺杂系列合金样品. 研究发现, 在共价作用的影响下, Fe和Co原子占A位, 使被取代的MnA (-2.1 μ_B)变成MnD (3.2 μ_B), 在最近邻的强交换作用下亚铁磁基体中形成了MnB-CoC-MnD局域铁磁性结构, 使分子磁矩的增量最高可达6.18 μ_B. Fe, Co 掺杂后建立同样的局域铁磁结构, 居里温度的变化趋势却不同. 实验观察到Mn₂Co_1+xAl_1-x中掺杂容忍度高达x=0.64, 远高于在Mn₂CoGa中(x=0.36)的结果; 以及随着Al的减少, 合金由B2有序向A2混乱转变等现象, 为共价作用对合金结构稳定的影响提供了证据. 磁测量中发现Cr掺杂后磁矩增量高达3.65 μ_B以及居里温度快速上升的反常现象, 意味着对占位规则的违背.     

抑制高阶谐波误差的随机相移条纹分析算法

高阶谐波和随机相移误差是影响条纹分析精度的主要因素。为了同时解决这两个问题,提出了基于频域滤波的迭代相移算法。该算法采用巴特沃斯低通滤波器,从频域上滤除条纹的高阶谐波分量,再运用最小二乘迭代方法从三帧随机相移条纹图像中提取相位信息。数值模拟和实验结果表明,该算法可有效地抑制由高阶谐波和随机相移引入的波纹误差,误差PV值和RMS值分别为0.368 8 rad和0.025 3 rad,其精度高于传统的三步相移算法和Wang算法。该方法适合于高精度干涉测量和三维物体表面轮廓测量。     

A dynamical test of phase transition order: New things in old places or old wine in new bottles

We first discuss nonlinear aspects of phase transition theory applied to a particular liquid crystal phase transition. A simple derivation is given to show how two coupled Goldstone modes (one appearing as gauge fluctuations of the ordered phase) can force a phase transition, against all expectations, to take place discontinuously (theory of Halperin, Lubensky, and Ma)-but the discontinuity may be immeasurably small. Then, we describe a new dynamical test of phase transition order, developed by Cladiset al., that turns out to be more sensitive than x-ray diffraction and adiabatic calorimetry. Quantitative data found by this new method are in excellent agreement with the measurements of adiabatic calorimetry and x-ray diffraction as well as expectations implicit in the predictions of HLM.This is the text of an after-banquet talk given at the CNLS Workshop on the Dynamics of Concentrated Systems.     

Influence of an indefinite causal order on an Otto heat engine

The quantum effect plays an important role in quantum thermodynamics, and recently the application of an indefinite causal order to quantum thermodynamics has attracted much attention. Based on two trapped ions, we propose a scheme to add an indefinite causal order to the isochoric cooling stroke of an Otto engine through reservoir engineering. Then, we observe that the quasi-static efficiency of this heat engine is far beyond the efficiency of a normal Otto heat engine and may reach one. When the power is its maximum, the efficiency is also much higher than that of a normal Otto heat engine. This enhancement may originate from the non-equilibrium of the reservoir and the measurement on the control qubit.     

Ground-state and dynamical properties of a spin-S Heisenberg star

We generalize the Heisenberg star consisting of a spin-1/2 central spin and a homogeneously coupled spin bath modeled by the XXX ring [Richter J and Voigt A 1994 J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 27 1139-1149] to the case of arbitrary central-spin size S < N/2, where N is the number of bath spins. We describe how to block-diagonalize the model based on the Bethe ansatz solution of the XXX ring, with the dimension of each block Hamiltonian ≤ 2S + 1. We obtain all the eigenenergies and explicit expressions of the sub-ground states in each l-subspace with l being the total angular momentum of the bath. Both the eigenenergies and the sub-ground states have distinct structures depending whether S ≤ l or l < S. The absolute ground-state energy and the corresponding l as functions of the intrabath coupling are numerically calculated for N = 16 and S = 1, 2, ⋯ ,7 and their behaviors are quantitatively explained in the weak and strong intrabath coupling limits. We then study the dynamics of the antiferromagnetic order within an XXX bath prepared in the Néel state. Effects of the initial state of the central spin, the value of S, and the system-bath coupling strength on the staggered magnetization dynamics are investigated. By including a Zeeman term for the central spin and the anisotropy in the intrabath coupling, we also study the polarization dynamics of the central spin for a bath prepared in the spin coherent state. Under the resonant condition and at the isotropic point of the bath, the polarization dynamics for S > 1/2 exhibit collapse-revival behaviors with fine structures. However, the collapse-revival phenomena are found to be fragile with respect to the anisotropy of the intrabath coupling.     

Stability analysis of fractional order fuzzy cellular neural networks with leakage delay and time varying delays

In this paper we investigated the stability of fractional order fuzzy cellular neural networks with leakage delay and time varying delays. Based on Lyapunov theory and applying bounded techniques of fractional calculation, sufficient criterion are established to guarantee the stability. Hybrid feedback control is applied to derive the proposed results. Finally, numerical examples with simulation results are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Stochastic Order and Generalized Weighted Mean Invariance

In this paper, we present order invariance theoretical results for weighted quasi-arithmetic means of a monotonic series of numbers. The quasi-arithmetic mean, or Kolmogorov–Nagumo mean, generalizes the classical mean and appears in many disciplines, from information theory to physics, from economics to traffic flow. Stochastic orders are defined on weights (or equivalently, discrete probability distributions). They were introduced to study risk in economics and decision theory, and recently have found utility in Monte Carlo techniques and in image processing. We show in this paper that, if two distributions of weights are ordered under first stochastic order, then for any monotonic series of numbers their weighted quasi-arithmetic means share the same order. This means for instance that arithmetic and harmonic mean for two different distributions of weights always have to be aligned if the weights are stochastically ordered, this is, either both means increase or both decrease. We explore the invariance properties when convex (concave) functions define both the quasi-arithmetic mean and the series of numbers, we show its relationship with increasing concave order and increasing convex order, and we observe the important role played by a new defined mirror property of stochastic orders. We also give some applications to entropy and cross-entropy and present an example of multiple importance sampling Monte Carlo technique that illustrates the usefulness and transversality of our approach. Invariance theorems are useful when a system is represented by a set of quasi-arithmetic means and we want to change the distribution of weights so that all means evolve in the same direction.
