Enhanced Compression of Fundamental Solitons in Dispersion Decreasing Fibers with Negative Third-order Dispersion Ⅱ. Effects of Fiber Characteristics and Initial Soliton Width

Previous work have shown that the combined effects of negative third-order dispersion (TOD) and Raman self-scattering (RSS) can significantly enhance soliton compression in dispersion decreasing fibers (DDFs). In this paper, the effects of the negative TOD coefficient and the effective amplification of DDF′s on the performance of soliton compression are investigated. It is shown that for a given initial soliton width and a given effective amplification, there exists an optimum value of the negative TOD coefficient of the DDF at which the enhancement in soliton compression is maximum. It is also shown that the compression enhancement saturates when the effective amplification exceeds a certain value, which has been explained as a compromise between the higher-order effects induced increase of the ratio of input to output group-velocity dispersion coefficients of the DDF and the TOD induced non-adiabatic compression characteristics. The dependence of the compression enhancement on the initial soliton width have also be studied and the scheme is found works well for solitons with initial widths less than 3 ps.     

$\delta$-拼挤流形中的2-调和子流形

We study biharmonic submanifolds in δ-pinched Riemannian manifolds, and obtain some sufficient conditions for biharmonic submanifolds to be minimal ones.     

Perturbation models

A Markov chain (with a discrete state space and a continuous parameter) is perturbed by forcing a chain to return to “permissible” states whenever it happens to enter “forbidden” states, with returns governed by a replacement distribution.The compensation method is employed to obtain the distribution for the modified chain, in terms of the original chain and the perturbation mechanism.Emphasis is placed on ergodic chains, and interpretation of results in terms of perturbation theory of semi-groups and the ergodic potential theory (based on the fundamental matrix of a chain) is mentioned.     

Boundary integral equation method in micropolar elasticity

This paper presents the integral representations of the displacement and rotation fields of the micropolar continuum, and the regularized integral representations of the traction and couple vector. Thus the boundary integral equations and the boundary integro-differential equations are derived. In addition, the formulation for crack problems is given by both the boundary integral equations and the boundary integro-differential equations.     

Certain condition on the second fundamental form of CR submanifolds of maximal CR dimension of complex Euclidean space

We treat m-dimensional real submanifolds M of complex space forms ̿M when the maximal holomorphic tangent subspace is (m−1)-dimensional. On these manifolds there exists an almost contact structure F which is naturally induced from the ambient space and in this paper we study the condition h(FX,Y)−h(X,FY) = g(FX,Y)η, η∊ T⊥(M), on the structure F and on the second fundamental form h of these submanifolds. Especially when the ambient space ̿M is a complex Euclidean space, we obtain a complete classification of submanifolds M which satisfy these conditions.Mathematics Subject Classifications (2000): 53C15, 53C40, 53B20.     

Canonical Brownian Motion on the Diffeomorphism Group of the Circle

For infinitesimal data given on the group of diffeomorphism of the circle with respect to the metric H^3/2, the associated Brownian motion has been constructed by Malliavin (C.R. Acad. Sci. Parist.329 (1999), 325-329). In this work, we shall give another approach and prove the invariance of heat measures under the adjoint action of S¹.     

Frequency ratios of Sr,Yb, and Hg based optical lattice clocks and their applications

This article describes the recent progress of optical lattice clocks with neutral strontium (⁸⁷Sr), ytterbium (¹⁷¹Yb) and mercury (¹⁹⁹Hg) atoms. In particular, we present frequency comparison between the clocks locally via an optical frequency comb and between two Sr clocks at remote sites using a phase-stabilized fibre link. We first review cryogenic Sr optical lattice clocks that reduce the room-temperature blackbody radiation shift by two orders of magnitude and serve as a reference in the following clock comparisons. Similar physical properties of Sr and Yb atoms, such as transition wavelengths and vapour pressure, have allowed our development of a compatible clock for both species. A cryogenic Yb clock is evaluated by referencing a Sr clock. We also report on an Hg clock, which shows one order of magnitude less sensitivity to blackbody radiation, while its large nuclear charge makes the clock sensitive to the variation of fine-structure constant. Connecting all three types of clocks by an optical frequency comb, the ratios of the clock frequencies are determined with uncertainties smaller than possible through absolute frequency measurements. Finally, we describe a synchronous frequency comparison between two Sr-based remote clocks over a distance of 15 km between RIKEN and the University of Tokyo, as a step towards relativistic geodesy.

Signature of relations in mapping class groups and non-holomorphic Lefschetz fibrations

We introduce the notion of signature for relations in mapping class groups and show that the signature of a Lefschetz fibration over the 2-sphere is the sum of the signatures for basic relations contained in its monodromy. Combining explicit calculations of the signature cocycle with a technique of substituting positive relations, we give some new examples of non-holomorphic Lefschetz fibrations of genus and which violate slope bounds for non-hyperelliptic fibrations on algebraic surfaces of general type.

     

Topologically knotted Lagrangians in simply connected four-manifolds

Vidussi was the first to construct knotted Lagrangian tori in simply connected four-dimensional manifolds. Fintushel and Stern introduced a second way to detect such knotting. This note demonstrates that similar examples may be distinguished by the fundamental group of the exterior.
