The asymptotic behavior, as $n\rightarrow \infty $ of the conditional distribution of the number of particles in a decomposable critical branching process $\mathbf{Z}% (m)=(Z_{1}(m),...,Z_{N}(m)),$ with $N$ types of particles at moment…
This report studies local asymptotics of P-splines with $p$th degree B-splines and a $m$th order difference penalty. Earlier work with $p$ and $m$ restricted is extended to the general case. Asymptotically, penalized splines are kernel…
Applying a technique developed in a recent work[1] to calculate wavefunction evolution in a dissipative system with Ohmic friction, we show that the wavelength of the wavefunction decays exponentially, while the Brownian motion width…
Novel "smectic-P" behavior, in which self-propelled particles form rows and move on average along them, occurs generically within the orientationally-ordered phase of simple models that we simulate. Both apolar (head-tail symmetric) and…
Decay rates of the B-meson are studied through charmless and strangless transitions into pi, rho, omega and gamma systems. The important features of these modes are their clean signatures. The CLEO II collaboration has recently reported the…
We study charmless two-body baryonic $B$ decays using the topological amplitude approach. We extend a previous work to include all ground state octet and decuplet final states with full topological amplitudes. Relations on rates and CP…
In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic behaviors of the survival probability and maximal displacement of a subcritical branching killed L\'{e}vy process $X$ in $\mathbb{R}$. Let $\zeta$ denote the extinction time, $M_t$ be the maximal…
The semileptonic decay asymmetry $\mathcal{A}_{\Delta m}$ is studied within the open quantum systems approach to the physics of the neutral meson $B^0$-$\overline{B^0}$ system: this extended treatment takes into account possible…
We study an asymptotic behaviour of the principal eigenvalue for an elliptic operator with large advection which is given by a gradient of a potential function. It is shown that the principal eigenvalue decays exponentially under the…
We study charmless two-body baryonic B decays in a diagramatic approach. Relations on decay amplitudes are obtained. In general there are more than one tree and more than one penguin amplitudes. The number of independent amplitudes can be…
We report the first observation of $B^{\pm}\to\psi(2S)\pi^{\pm}$, a Cabibbo- and color-suppressed decay. This analysis is based on $657\times10^{6}$ $B\overline B$ events collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at…
The importance of measuring the non-$D \bar D$ decays of the $\psi'' = \psi(3770)$ resonance is discussed. These decays can shed light on a possible discrepancy between the total and $D \bar D$ cross sections at the $\psi''$, and on a…
The work developed in the paper concerns the multivariate fractional Brownian motion (mfBm) viewed through the lens of the wavelet transform. After recalling some basic properties on the mfBm, we calculate the correlation structure of its…
In N=2 SYM theory with matter non-conservation of the S-charge of a BPS state under monodromies leads to so-called BPS state "decay". A mechanism for such a behavior on the semiclassical level could be established through consideration of…
A sample of 3.79 million psi(2S) decays observed in the BES detector is used to study the decays of charmonium to axialvector plus pseudoscalar mesons. The branching fraction for psi(2S) to b1pi agrees with expectations. A contrasting…
We study the time evolution and decay of the neutral B-meson system using quantum dynamical semigroups. New, nonstandard terms appear in the expression of relevant observables; they can be parametrized in terms of six phenomenological…
We explore the possibility of studying $B\to\pi l\nu$ semileptonic decays at large recoil momentum. Our methods include the use of a random-wall source for the pion to reduce statistical errors, and different smearing functions are used for…
Oscillons are extremely long-lived, spatially-localized field configurations in real-valued scalar field theories that slowly lose energy via radiation of scalar waves. Before their eventual demise, oscillons can pass through (one or more)…
We re-calculate the exclusive semileptonic and nonleptonic decays of $B_c$ meson to a $P$-wave charmonium in terms of the improved Bethe-Salpeter (B-S) approach, which is developed recently. Here the widths for the exclusive semileptonic…
The decay timescales of the quasinormal modes of a massive scalar field have an intriguing behavior: they either grow or decay with increasing angular harmonic numbers $\ell$, depending on whether the mass of the scalar field is small or…
