Geometry of the Welch Bounds
A geometric perspective involving Grammian and frame operators is used to derive the entire family of Welch bounds. This perspective unifies a number of observations that have been made regarding tightness of the bounds and their connections to symmetric k-tensors, tight frames, homogeneous polynomials, and t-designs. ...

Fixed-domain asymptotic properties of tapered maximum likelihood estimators
When the spatial sample size is extremely large, which occurs in many environmental and ecological studies, operations on the large covariance matrix are a numerical challenge. Covariance tapering is a technique to alleviate the numerical challenges. Under the assumption that data are collected along a line in a bounde...

An Iterative Method for Parallel MRI SENSE-based Reconstruction in the Wavelet Domain
To reduce scanning time and/or improve spatial/temporal resolution in some MRI applications, parallel MRI (pMRI) acquisition techniques with multiple coils acquisition have emerged since the early 1990s as powerful 3D imaging methods that allow faster acquisition of reduced Field of View (FOV) images. In these techniqu...

The semigroup structure of Gaussian channels
We investigate the semigroup structure of bosonic Gaussian quantum channels. Particular focus lies on the sets of channels which are divisible, idempotent or Markovian (in the sense of either belonging to one-parameter semigroups or being infinitesimal divisible). We show that the non-compactness of the set of Gaussian...

Computational Eulerian Hydrodynamics and Galilean Invariance

In this work, we critically examine recent claims that these methods violate Galilean invariance of the Euler equations. We demonstrate that Eulerian hydrodynamics methods do converge to a Galilean-invarian...

A Superglass Phase of Interacting Bosons
We introduce a Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian with random disordered interactions as a model to study the interplay of superfluidity and glassiness in a system of three-dimensional hard-core bosons at half-filling. Solving the model using large-scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we show that these disordered interactions...

The Contribution of High Redshift Galaxies to Cosmic Reionization: New Results from Deep WFC3 Imaging of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field
We have searched for star-forming galaxies at z~7 by applying the Lyman-break technique to newly-released 1.1micron Y-band images from WFC3 on HST. By comparing these images of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field with the ACS z'-band (0.85micron), we identify objects with red colours, (z'-Y)_AB>1.3), consistent with the Ly-alp...

Specificity and Completion Time Distributions of Biochemical Processes
In order to produce specific complex structures from a large set of similar biochemical building blocks, many biochemical systems require high sensitivity to small molecular differences. The first and most common model used to explain this high specificity is kinetic proofreading, which has been extended to a variety o...

The Formation Mechanism of Gas Giants on Wide Orbits
The recent discoveries of massive planets on ultra-wide orbits of HR 8799 (Marois et al. 2008) and Fomalhaut (Kalas et al. 2008) present a new challenge for planet formation theorists. Our goal is to figure out which of three giant planet formation mechanisms--core accretion (with or without migration), scattering from...

We fit the light curve data of the type expected from a survey such as the one planned with Large Synoptic Survey Telescope...

We use information theory to study recovering sets $\R_L$ and strongly cancellative sets $\C_L$ on different lattices. These sets are special classes of recovering pairs and cancellative sets previously discussed in [1], [3] and [5]. We mainly focus on the lattices $B_n$ and $D_{l}^{k}$. Specifically, we find upper bou...

Conformal windows of SP(2N) and SO(N) gauge theories from topological excitations on R3 * S1

We calculate the index of topological excitations for these groups on the manifold R3 * S1, from which we deduce the scale of the generation of the mass gap ...

However, for compensated antiferromagnets other extrinsic factors, such as interface roughness or spin canting, have to be considered to produce a small uncompensation. As an alternative, here we pr...
