Analyticity of the density of states in the anderson model on the Bethe lattice

Let H=1/2+V on l²(B), whereB is the Bethe lattice andV(x),x B, are i.i.d.r.v.'s with common probability distribution. It is shown that for distributions sufficiently close to the Cauchy distribution, the density of states(E) is analytic in a strip about the real axis.     

Multiple scattering in random media I. Restricted two-body additive approximation

We present a microscopic theory of the problem of finding the properties of a particle interacting with potentials located at random sites. The sites are governed by a general probability distribution. The starting point is the multiple scattering equations for the amplitude k ₁|T |k ₂ in terms of the individual scattering amplitudes k ₁|T |k ₂. We work with quantitiesA defined by k ₁|T |k ₂=k ₁|T |k ₂exp[i(k ₁–k ₂)R ]. The theory is based on a splitting of the fundamental equation forA into equations for the mean A and the fluctuationsAA . Neglect of the fluctuations yields the quasicrystalline approximation. We rearrange the equation forAA to isolate the collective part of the fluctuations. We then make the simplest microscopic truncation which is thatAA is a restricted two-body additive function of the site positions. With the contribution of the collective fluctuations, this yields results forA that are accurate to ordert ⁴.Work supported in part by the National Science Foundation under Contract No. NSF DMRWork supported in part by the National Science Foundation under Contract No. NSF DMR     

Random walk in an inhomogeneous medium with local impurities

In spite of Sinai's result that the decay of the velocity autocorrelation function for a random walk on ^d (d=2) can drastically change if local impurities are present, it is shown that local impurities can not abolish weak convergence to the Brownian motion if d2.     

Properties of the random search in global optimization

From theorems which we prove about the behavior of gaps in a set ofN uniformly random points on the interval [0, 1], we determine properties of the random search procedure in one-dimensional global optimization. In particular, we show that the uniform grid search is better than the random search when the optimum is chosen using the deterministic strategy, that a significant proportion of large gaps are contained in the uniformly random search, and that the error in the determination of the point at which the optimum occurs, assuming that it is unique, will on the average be twice as large using the uniformly random search compared with the uniform grid. In addition, some of the properties of the largest gap are verified numerically, and some extensions to higher dimensions are discussed. The latter show that not all of the conclusions derived concerning the inadequacies of the one-dimensional random search extend to higher dimensions, and thaton average the random search is better than the uniform grid for dimensions greater than 6.This paper is based on work started in the Statistics Department of Princeton University when the first author was visiting as a Research Associate.

垂直水声通信中的伪随机序列精确定时算法*

针对垂直水声通信中时变多普勒引起的定时偏差问题,研究一种基于伪随机序列的迭代定时估计及补偿算法。该方法利用伪随机序列作为同步信号,分三步估计时变多普勒：采用低复杂度的模糊函数法粗补偿接收信号内的平均多普勒;通过迭代插值法实现残留时变多普勒的精确估计及补偿;利用基于信道相关函数的相位信息,纠正均衡后信号的偏转相位。为实现高阶海试数据的有效解调,采用基于伪随机序列均方误差的多通道加权合并方式,获得空间分集增益。仿真及海试数据处理结果证明所提方法具有良好的时变多普勒估计及补偿性能,同时对30个通道内的1024QAM数据进行合并处理,在500 m的通信距离下,误码率为0.04,信道容量达到7.6 bits/symbol。与传统数据帧结构相比,无需使用线性调频信号,可以提高有效数据传输率。

Self-organized Criticality in an Earthquake Model on Random Network

A simplified Olami-Feder-Christensen model on a random network has been studied. We propose a new toppling rule — when there is an unstable site toppling, the energy of the site is redistributed to its nearest neighbors randomly not averagely. The simulation results indicate that the model displays self-organized criticality when the system is conservative, and the avalanche size probability distribution of the system obeys finite size scaling. When the system is nonconservative, the model does not display scaling behavior. Simulation results of our model with different nearest neighbors q is also compared, which indicates that the spatial topology does not alter the critical behavior of the system.     

Comparison of Physical Adsorption and Covalent Coupling Methods for Surface Density-Dependent Orientation of Antibody on Silicon

The orientation of antibodies, employed as capture molecules on biosensors, determines biorecognition efficiency and bioassay performance. In a previous publication we demonstrated for antibodies attached covalently to silicon that an increase in their surface amount Γ, evaluated with ellipsometry, induces changes in their orientation, which is traced directly using Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectroscopy combined with Principal Component Analysis. Here, we extend the above studies to antibodies adsorbed physically on a 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) monolayer. Antibodies physisorbed on APTES (0 ≤ Γ ≤ 3.5 mg/m²) reveal the Γ ranges for flat-on, side-on, and vertical orientation consistent with random molecular packing. The relation between orientation and Γ is juxtaposed for silicon functionalized with APTES, APTES modified with glutaraldehyde (APTES/GA) and N-hydroxysuccinimide-silane (NHS-silane). Antibody reorientation occurs at lower Γ values when physisorption (APTES) is involved rather than chemisorption (APTES/GA, NHS-silane). At high Γ values, comparable proportions of molecules adapting head-on and tail-on vertical alignment are concluded for APTES and the NHS-silane monolayer, and they are related to intermolecular dipole–dipole interactions. Intermolecular forces seem to be less decisive than covalent binding for antibodies on the APTES/GA surface, with dominant head-on orientation. Independently, the impact of glutaraldehyde activation of APTES on vertical orientation is confirmed by separate TOF-SIMS measurements.
