Simulated annealing solves global optimization problems by means of a random walk in a cooling energy landscape based on the objective function and a temperature parameter. However, if the temperature is decreased too quickly, this…

We study an annealed site diluted quantum XY model with spin $S\in \frac{1}{2}\mathbb{N}$. We find regions of the parameter space where, in spite of being a priori favourable for a densely occupied state, phases with staggered occupancy…
The rational map approximation to the solution to the SU(2) Skyrme model with baryon number B=4 is canonically quantized. The quantization procedure leads to anomalous breaking of the chiral symmetry, and exponential falloff of the energy…

We simulate $ SU(2) $ lattice gauge theory using dynamical reduced staggered fermions. The latter lead to two rather than four Dirac fermions in the continuum limit. We review the derivation and properties of reduced staggered fermions and…

We use a localization procedure to weaken the growth assumptions of Royer [8], Miclo [4] and Zitt [9] concerning the continuous-time simulated annealing in $\mathbf{R}^d$. We show that a transition occurs for potentials growing like $a \log…
Load modeling is an important issue in modeling a power system. The approach of ambient signals-based load modeling (ASLM) was recently proposed to better track the time-varying changes of load models. To improve computation efficiency and…
We investigate an Alternative Left-Right Model (ALRM) with $SU(2)_L$ as well as $SU(2)_R$ gauge groups, but unlike the traditional left-right symmetric models (LRSM) is not symmetric under the exchange of the fermion content. Interestingly,…
In this paper, we consider the generalised (higher order) Langevin equation for the purpose of simulated annealing and optimisation of nonconvex functions. Our approach modifies the underdamped Langevin equation by replacing the Brownian…
We make progress towards a derivation of a low energy effective theory for SU(2) Yang-Mills theory. This low energy action is computed to 1-loop using the renormalization group technique, taking proper care of the Slavnov-Taylor identities…
We discuss the similarities between BPS monopoles and Skyrmions, and point to an underlying connection in terms of rational maps between Riemann spheres. This involves the introduction of a new ansatz for Skyrme fields. We use this to…
