We show that the recent experimental claim [Pudalov {\it et al}. \prl {\bf 91}, 126403 (2003) ] of observing ``interaction effects in the conductivity of Si inversion layers at intermediate temperatures'' is incorrect and misleading. In…
The frequency-dependent conductivity is studied for the one-dimensional Hubbard model, using a selection rule, the Bethe ansatz, and symmetries associated with conservation laws. For densities where the system is metallic the absorption…

For Poisson distribution $Pois(n, \lambda)$ with $\lambda \gg 1$, $n \gg 1$ we propose to determine significance as $S = \frac{n_{obs}-\lambda}{\sqrt{\lambda}}$. The significance $S$ coincides up to sign with often used significance. For…
