We provide another approach to Friedland's result that the topological entropy $h$ of a symmetric nearest-neighbor subshift is computable. Instead of the previous algebraic technique, our approach is mostly combinatorial and involves only…
The one--loop contribution of the two CP--violating components of the $WW\gamma$ vertex, $ \tilde{\kappa}_\gamma W^+_\mu W^-_\nu \tilde{F}^{\mu \nu}$ and $(\tilde{\lambda}_\gamma / m^2_W)W^+_{\mu \nu}W^{-\nu}_{\ \rho}\tilde{F}^{\rho \mu}$,…
On the $Z^2$ lattice, vertices are assigned random weights $W(i,j)$. The point-to-point last passage percolation (LPP) time $S_{M,N+1-M}$ between $(1,1)$ and $(M,N+1-M)$ is the maximum total weight among all upward/right-oriented paths…
