We study the effect of the interfacial transparency on the Josephson current in a diffusive ferromagnetic contact between two superconductors. In contrast to the cases of the fully transparent and the low-transparency interfaces, the…
We propose a classification of non-k\"ahlerian surfaces from a dynamical point of view and show how the known non-k\"ahlerian surfaces fit into it.
We study the b-functions of relative invariants of the prehomogeneous vector spaces associated with quivers of type A. By applying the decomposition formula for b-functions, we determine explicitly the b-functions of one variable for each…
We first construct a derived equivalence between a small crepant resolution of an affine toric Calabi-Yau 3-fold and a certain quiver with a superpotential. Under this derived equivalence we establish a wall-crossing formula for the…
The transmittance of intersection between narrow quantum strips is studied. It is assumed that strip widths are less than the electron wavelength, so that they are tunnel conductors. In this assumption the Schr\"odinger equation is reduced…
We study the geometry of complexified moduli spaces of special Lagrangian submanifolds in the complement of an anticanonical divisor in a compact Kahler manifold. In particular, we explore the connections between T-duality and mirror…
Persistent currents in rings constructed from carbon nanotubes are investigated theoretically. After studying the contribution of finite temperature or quenched disorder on covalent rings, the complexity due to the bundle packing is…
A theory is developed for calculating vertical tunneling current between two sheets of bilayer graphene separated by a thin, insulating layer of hexagonal boron nitride, neglecting many-body effects. Results are presented using physical…
Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold of dimension 3 and let $f:X\rightarrow X$ be a pseudo-automorphism. Under the mild condition that $\lambda_1(f)^2>\lambda_2(f)$, we prove the existence of invariant positive closed $(1,1)$ and $(2,2)$…
In this paper, we start by proving the existence of the strict transform of a positive current $T$ as soon as its $j^{th}$ currents, $T_j$, are plurisubharmonics or plurisuperharmonics. Then, with a suitable condition on $T_j$, we show the…
We report on experimental studies of superconductor-ferromagnet layered structures. Strong oscillations of the critical supercurrent were observed with the thickness variation of the ferromagnet. Using known microscopic parameters of Ni, we…
Let A be an elliptic curve, and let $V_A$ be the Serre vector bundle on A. A famous example of Demailly-Peternell-Schneider shows that the tautological class of $V_A$ contains a unique closed positive current. In this survey we start by…
We show that there is an unexpected relation between free divisors and stability and coincidence thresholds for projective hypersurfaces.
In this note we give an overview of some applications of the Calabi-Yau theorem to the construction of singular positive (1,1) currents on compact complex manifolds. We show how recent developments allow us to give streamlined proofs of…
We carry out numerical calculations of the scattering cross section of tubular semiconductor nanocylinders in the optical range. The scattering is investigated for the transversal incidence of light, i.e., along the diameter of the…
Shot noise cross-correlations in normal metal-superconductor-normal metal structures are discussed at arbitrary interface transparencies using both the scattering approach of Blonder, Tinkham and Klapwik and a microscopic Green's function…
In this article we develop intersection theory in terms of the $\mathcal{B}$-group of a reduced analytic space. This group was introduced in a previous work as an analogue of the Chow group; it is generated by currents that are direct…
We present non-supersymmetric toroidal compactifications of type I string theory with both constant background NSNS two-form flux and non-trivial magnetic flux on the various D9-branes. The non-vanishing B-flux admits four-dimensional…
We describe the closed cone of moving curves of smooth Fano three- and fourfolds by giving finitely many equations that cut out the cone. The equations are induced by the exceptional divisors of divisorial contractions and by nef divisors…
Let $(X, \omega)$ be an n-dimensional compact K\"ahler manifold. Let $D=\sum (1-\beta_j) Y_j=\sum (1-\beta_j) [s_j=0]$ a divisor with simple normal crossings with $\beta_j \in ]0,1[$ such that $-(K_X+D)$ is nef. We show that its Albanese…
