For the theoretical prediction of cross-section fluctuations in chaotic scattering, the cross-section autocorrelation function is needed. That function is not known analytically. Using experimental data and numerical simulations, we show…
We introduce a weak asymptotic version of nonlinear contraction, termed \emph{asymptotic pointwise contraction}. For a mapping on a metric space, this notion requires the existence of a sequence of functions that dominate the distances…
Absolute neutrino cross section measurements at the GeV scale are ultimately limited by the knowledge of the initial $\nu$ flux. In order to evade such limitation and reach the accuracy that is needed for precision oscillation physics…
Counterexamples to continuity of optimal transportation on Riemannian manifolds with everywhere positive sectional curvature are provided. These examples show that the condition A3w of Ma, Trudinger, & Wang is not guaranteed by positivity…
Definitions of orbital angular momentum based on Wigner distributions are used as a framework to discuss the connection between the Ji definition of the quark orbital angular momentum and that of Jaffe and Manohar. We find that the…
We prove an uncertainty relation, which imposes a bound on any joint measurement of position and momentum. It is of the form $(\Delta P)(\Delta Q)\geq C\hbar$, where the `uncertainties' quantify the difference between the marginals of the…
The scaling of the AC conductivity in quantum critical holographic theories at finite density, finite temperature and in the presence of momentum dissipation is considered. It is shown that there is generically an intermediate window of…
We define a new scaling limit of matrix models which can be related to the method of causal dynamical triangulations (CDT) used when investigating two-dimensional quantum gravity. Surprisingly, the new scaling limit of the matrix models is…
In this paper, we investigate and find a necessary and sufficient condition for a function to be absolutely continuous over $\mathbb{R}$ (denoted by $AC(\mathbb{R})$) or any unbounded interval in $\mathbb{R}$ . Note that the Lebesgue's…
After more than a century of debate, there remains continuing discomfort over what is the correct expression for the electromagnetic momentum in a dielectric medium. This is the so-called the Minkowski-Abraham controversy. We show that…
The problem of maximizing the average cross section through a point within a shape is introduced. This idea is extended into arbitrary dimensions. However, the average cross sectional volume cannot be maximized unless the cross sections…
The concept of angular momentum is ubiquitous to many areas of physics. In classical mechanics, a system may possess an angular momentum which can be either transverse (e.g., in a spinning wheel) or longitudinal (e.g., for a fluidic vortex)…
Pure lattice SU(2) Yang-Mills theory in five dimensions is considered, where an extra dimension is compactified on a circle. Monte-Carlo simulations indicate that the theory possesses a continuum limit with a non-vanishing string tension if…
It is known that the longitudinal and transverse excitation modes can exist in the vicinity of a quantum critical point in the ordered phase of quantum magnetic systems. The total moment sum rule for such systems is derived on the basis of…
The vorticity of a congruence is often considered to be the rate of rotation for the precession of a gyroscope moving along a world-line belonging to that congruence. Our aim here was to determine the evolution equation for the angular…
We elaborate on the theorem saying that as permeability coefficients of snapping-out Brownian motions tend to infinity in such a way that their ratio remains constant, these processes converge to a skew Brownian motion. In particular,…
Angular momentum (AM) is a key parameter to understand galaxy formation and evolution. AM originates in tidal torques between proto-structures at turn around, and from this the specific AM is expected to scale as a power-law of slope 2/3…
It is shown that the independence of the continuum hypothesis points to the unique definite status of the set of intermediate cardinality: the intermediate set exists only as a subset of continuum. This latent status is a consequence of…
We describe how the Schoen-Yau proof of the positive mass theorem can be extended to arbitrary dimensions. To overcome the problem of singularities, we propose a new inductive scheme. To carry out the inductive step, we use a combination of…
We study normal modes for the linear water wave problem in infinite straight channels of bounded constant cross-section. Our goal is to compare semianalytic normal mode solutions known in the literature for special triangular…
