We consider spline estimates which preserve prescribed piecewise convex properties of the unknown function. A robust version of the penalized likelihood is given and shown to correspond to a variable halfwidth kernel smoother where the…
We prove that regulating infrared divergencies generates power (~1/(Q^2)^k) corrections to the spin structure function g_1 at small x and large Q^2. At the same time it leads to the corrections ~(Q^2)^k at small Q^2. We present the explicit…
A contribution is presented to the application of fractal properties and log-periodic corrections to the masses of several nuclei (isotopes or isotones), and to the energy levels of some nuclei. The fractal parameters $\alpha$ and $\lambda$…
We investigate the effect of the structure function F_L in global parton analyses of deep inelastic and related hard scattering data. We perform NLO and NNLO analyses which include the reduced cross section HERA data at high y, as well as…
Radiative corrections in the phenomenology of particle physics lead to great predictions on the observables of the Standard Model (SM) which are in good agreement with different measurements on Particle Accelerators and Detectors and in the…
Kolmogorov-Arnold networks (KANs) offer a potent combination of accuracy and interpretability, thanks to their compositions of learnable univariate activation functions. However, the activations of well-fitting KANs tend to exhibit…
Error estimates are rigorously derived for a semi-discrete version of a conservative spectral method for approximating the space-homogeneous Fokker-Planck-Landau (FPL) equation associated to hard potentials. The analysis included shows that…
Recent data on the structure function F_2(x,Q^2) at small values of x are analysed and compared with theoretical expectations. It is shown that the observed rise at small x is consistent with a logarithmic increase, growing logarithmically…
We investigate the relationship between superselection rules and quantum error correcting codes. We demonstrate that the existence of a superselection rule implies the Knill-Laflamme condition in quantum error correction. As an example, we…
The screened QED corrections of the first orders in \alpha and 1/Z to the g factor and the hyperfine splitting of lithiumlike ions are evaluated within ab initio quantum electrodynamical approach. The complete gauge-invariant set of the…
In this paper, we resolve a conjecture of Green and Liebeck [Disc. Math., 343 (8):117119, 2019] on codes in $PGL(2,q)$. To be specific, we show that: if $D$ is a dihedral subgroup of order $2(q+1)$ in $G=PGL(2,q)$, and $A=\{g\in G: g^{q+1}=…
Ratios of multiplicity moments, H_q (cumulant over factorial moments K_q/F_q), have been observed to show an oscillatory behaviour with respect to order, q. Recent studies of e^+e^- annihilations at LEP have shown, moreover, that the…
Multiplicative logarithmic corrections frequently characterize critical behaviour in statistical physics. Here, a recently proposed theory relating the exponents of such terms is extended to account for circumstances which often occur when…
Analytic formulae are derived for the complete photon energy spectrum due to QED corrections to fermion pair production in case of a limited angular acceptance for the final state fermions. After a numerical integration over the energy of…
We analyze the order-$\alpha_s^2$ QCD corrections to semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering and present results for processes initiated by a gluon. We focus in the most singular pieces of these corrections in order to obtain the hitherto…
The recent finding, that in QCD at the $O(\alpha_s^2)$-level only non-planar diagrams, which are suppressed by a factor $1/N_c^2$ relative to planar ones, are contributing to the valence part of the Gottfried sum rule, is described. To our…
We discuss QCD studies that will be possible at LEP2. We examine both experimental and theoretical aspects of jets, fragmentation functions, multiplicities and particle spectra.
We have computed semi-inclusive spin asymmetries for proton and deuteron targets including next to leading order (NLO) QCD corrections and contributions coming from the target fragmentation region. These corrections have been estimated…
We develop a series expansion of the plasma screening length away from the classical limit in powers of $\hbar^{2}$. It is shown that the leading order quantum correction increases the screening length in solar conditions by approximately…
In this paper, we establish several inequalities for different convex mappings that are connected with the Riemann-Liouville fractional integrals. Our results have some relationships with certain integral inequalities in the literature.
