Nonlinear network dynamics for interconnected micro-grids
|
This paper deals with transient stability in interconnected micro-grids. The
main contribution involves i) robust classification of transient dynamics for
different intervals of the micro-grid parameters (synchronization, inertia, and
damping); ii) exploration of the analogies with consensus dynamics and bounds
on the damping coefficient separating underdamped and overdamped dynamics iii)
the extension to the case of disturbed measurements due to hackering or
parameter uncertainties.

Radiative seesaw models linking to dark matter candidates inspired by the DAMPE excess
|
We propose two possibilities to explain an excess of electron/positron flux
around 1.4 TeV recently reported by Dark Matter Explore (DAMPE) in the
framework of radiative seesaw models where one of them provides a fermionic
dark matter candidate, and the other one provides a bosonic dark matter
candidate. We also show unique features of both models regarding neutrino mass
structure.

Multiscale analysis of semilinear damped stochastic wave equations
|
In this paper we proceed with the multiscale analysis of semilinear damped
stochastic wave motions. The analysis is made by combining the well-known sigma
convergence method with its stochastic counterpart, associated to some
compactness results such as the Prokhorov and Skorokhod theorems. We derive the
equivalent model, which is of the same type as the micro-model.

Global existence for the 3-D semilinear damped wave equations in the scattering case
|
We study the global existence of solutions to semilinear damped wave
equations in the scattering case with derivative power-type nonlinearity on
(1+3) dimensional nontrapping asymptotically Euclidean manifolds. The main idea
is to exploit local energy estimate, together with local existence to convert
the parameter $\mu$ to small one.

Optimal leading term of solutions to wave equations with strong damping terms
|
We analyze the asymptotic behavior of solutions to wave equations with strong
damping terms. If the initial data belong to suitable weighted $L^1$ spaces,
lower bounds for the difference between the solutions and the leading terms in
the Fourier space are obtained, which implies the optimality of expanding
methods and some estimates proposed in this paper.

Apples with Apples comparison of 3+1 conformal numerical relativity schemes
|
This paper contains a comprehensive comparison catalog of `Apples with
Apples' tests for the BSSNOK, CCZ4 and Z4c numerical relativity schemes, with
and without constraint damping terms for the latter two. We use basic numerical
methods and reach the same level of accuracy as existing results in the
literature. We find that the best behaving scheme is generically CCZ4 with
constraint damping terms.

Statistical complexity of the quasiperiodical damped systems
|
We consider the concept of statistical complexity to write the
quasiperiodical damped systems applying the snapshot attractors. This allows us
to understand the behaviour of these dynamical systems by the probability
distribution of the time series making a difference between the regular, random
and structural complexity on finite measurements. We interpreted the
statistical complexity on snapshot attractor and determined it on the
quasiperiodical forced pendulum.

Stationary Solutions of Damped Stochastic 2-dimensional Euler's Equation
|
Existence of stationary point vortices solution to the damped and
stochastically driven Euler's equation on the two dimensional torus is proved,
by taking limits of solutions with finitely many vortices. A central limit
scaling is used to show in a similar manner the existence of stationary

Solar $p$-mode damping rates: insight from a 3D hydrodynamical simulation
|
Space-borne missions CoRoT and Kepler have provided a rich harvest of
high-quality photometric data for solar-like pulsators. It is now possible to
measure damping rates for hundreds of main-sequence and thousands of red-giant.
However, among the seismic parameters, mode damping rates remain poorly
understood and thus barely used for inferring the physical properties of stars.
Previous approaches to model mode damping rates were based on mixing-length
theory or a Reynolds-stress approach to model turbulent convection. While able
to grasp the main physics of the problem, those approaches are of little help
to provide quantitative estimates as well as a definitive answer on the
relative contribution of each physical mechanism. Our aim is thus to assess the
ability of 3D hydrodynamical simulations to infer the physical mechanisms
responsible for damping of solar-like oscillations. To this end, a solar
high-spatial resolution and long-duration hydrodynamical 3D simulation computed
with the ANTARES code allows probing the coupling between turbulent convection
and the normal modes of the simulated box. Indeed, normal modes of the
simulation experience realistic driving and damping in the super-adiabatic
layers of the simulation. Therefore, investigating the properties of the normal
modes in the simulation provides a unique insight into the mode physics. We
demonstrate that such an approach provides constraints on the solar damping
rates and is able to disentangle the relative contribution related to the
perturbation of the turbulent pressure, the gas pressure, the radiative flux,
and the convective flux contributions. Finally, we conclude that using the
normal modes of a 3D numerical simulation is possible and is potentially able
to unveil the respective role of the different physical mechanisms responsible
for mode damping provided the time-duration of the simulation is long enough.

|
In this article we consider a control problem of a linear Euler-Bernoulli
damped beam equation with potential in dimension one with periodic boundary
conditions. We derive a new Carleman estimate for an adjoint of the equation
under consideration. Then using a well known duality argument we obtain
explicitly the control function which can be used to drive the solution
trajectory of the control problem to zero state.

Dissipative structure and diffusion phenomena for doubly dissipative elastic waves in two space dimensions
|
In this paper we study the Cauchy problem for doubly dissipative elastic
waves in two space dimensions, where the damping terms consist of two different
friction or structural damping. We derive energy estimates and diffusion
phenomena with different assumptions on initial data. Particularly, we find the
dominant influence on diffusion phenomena by introducing a new threshold of
diffusion structure.

Unique determination of the damping coefficient in the wave equation using point source and receiver data
|
In this article, we consider the inverse problems of determining the damping
coefficient appearing in the wave equation. We prove the unique determination
of the coefficient from the data coming from a single coincident
source-receiver pair. Since our problem is under-determined, so some extra
assumption on the coefficient is required to prove the uniqueness.

Non-Existence of Periodic Orbits for Forced-Damped Potential Systems in Bounded Domains
|
We prove Lr-estimates on periodic solutions of periodically-forced,
linearly-damped mechanical systems with polynomially-bounded potentials. The
estimates are applied to obtain a non-existence result of periodic solutions in
bounded domains, depending on an upper bound on the gradient of the potential.
The results are illustrated on examples.

On the inclusion of damping terms in the hyperbolic MBO algorithm
|
The hyperbolic MBO is a threshold dynamic algorithm which approximates
interfacial motion by hyperbolic mean curvature flow. We introduce a
generalization of this algorithm for imparting damping terms onto the equation
of motion. We also construct corresponding numerical methods, and perform
numerical tests. We also use our results to show that the generalized
hyperbolic MBO is able to approximate motion by the standard mean curvature
flow.

general solution for the density operator.

for weakly coupled systems of semi-linear effectively damped wave, with
different time-dependent coefficients in the dissipation terms. Moreover,
nonlinearity terms $ f(t,u) $ and $ g(t,v) $ satisfying some properties of the
parabolic equation. We study the problem in several classes of regularity.

Convergence of a damped Newton's method for discrete Monge-Ampere functions with a prescribed asymptotic cone
|
We prove the convergence of a damped Newton's method for the nonlinear system
resulting from a discretization of the second boundary value problem for the
Monge-Ampere equation. The boundary condition is enforced through the use of
the notion of asymptotic cone. The differential operator is discretized based
on a partial discrete analogue of the subdifferential.

Comment on "On the Origin of Frictional Energy Dissipation"
|
In their interesting study (Ref. [1]) Hu et al have shown that for a simple
"harmonium" solid model the slip-induced motion of surface atoms is close to
critically damped. This result is in fact well known from studies of
vibrational damping of atoms and molecules at surfaces. However, for real
practical cases the situation may be much more complex and the conclusions of
Hu et al invalid.

We prove the nonlinear inviscid damping for a class of monotone shear flows
in $T\times [0,1]$ for initial perturbation in Gevrey-$1/s$($s>2$) class with
compact support. The main idea of the proof is to use the wave operator of a
slightly modified Rayleigh operator in a well chosen coordinate system.

Bistability in the dissipative quantum systems I: Damped and driven nonlinear oscillator
|
We revisit quantum dynamics of the damped and driven nonlinear oscillator. In
the classical case this system has two stationary solutions (the limit cycles)
in the certain parameter region, which is the origin of the celebrated
bistability phenomenon. The quantum-classical correspondence for the oscillator
dynamics is discussed in details.

critical nonlinearity. Our aim is to show that the solution scatters to a
modified linear wave solution and to obtain its asymptotic order.

long-time behavior for semi-linear weakly damped wave equations in
$\mathbb{R}^3$ with quintic nonlinearities. This study includes global
well-posedness of the so-called Shatah-Struwe solutions, their dissipativity,
the existence of a locally compact global attractors (in the uniformly local
phase spaces) and their extra regularity.

Influence of dissipation on extreme oscillations of a forced anharmonic oscillator
|
Dynamics of a periodically forced anharmonic oscillator (AO) with cubic
nonlinearity, linear damping, and nonlinear damping, is studied. To begin with,
the authors examine the dynamics of an AO. Due to this symmetric nature, the
system has two neutrally stable elliptic equilibrium points in positive and
negative potential-wells. Hence, the unforced system can exhibit both
single-well and double-well periodic oscillations depending on the initial
conditions. Next, the authors include nonlinear damping into the system. Then,
the symmetry of the system is broken instantly and the stability of the two
elliptic points is altered to result in stable focus and unstable focus in the
positive and negative potential-wells, respectively. Consequently, the system
is dual-natured and is either non-dissipative or dissipative, depending on
location in the phase space. Furthermore, when one includes a periodic external
forcing with suitable parameter values into the nonlinearly damped AO system
and starts to increase the damping strength, the symmetry of the system is not
broken right away, but it occurs after the damping reaches a threshold value.
As a result, the system undergoes a transition from double-well chaotic
oscillations to single-well chaos mediated through extreme events (EEs).
Furthermore, it is found that the large-amplitude oscillations developed in the
system are completely eliminated if one incorporates linear damping into the
system. The numerically calculated results are in good agreement with the
theoretically obtained results on the basis of Melnikov's function. Further, it
is demonstrated that when one includes linear damping into the system, this
system has a dissipative nature throughout the entire phase space of the
system. This is believed to be the key to the elimination of EEs.

Exponential decay for semilinear wave equations with viscoelastic damping and delay feedback
|
In this paper we study a class of semilinear wave type equations with
viscoelastic damping and delay feedback with time variable coefficient. By
combining semigroup arguments, careful energy estimates and an iterative
approach we are able to prove, under suitable assumptions, a well-posedness
result and an exponential decay estimate for solutions corresponding to small
initial data. This extends and concludes the analysis initiated in [16] and
then developed in [13, 17].

A Smoluchowski-Kramers approximation for an infinite dimensional system with state-dependent damping

We study the validity of a Smoluchowski-Kramers approximation for a class of
wave equations in a bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^n$ subject to a
state-dependent damping and perturbed by a multiplicative noise. We prove that
in the small mass limit the solution converges to the solution of a stochastic
quasilinear parabolic equation where a noise-induced extra drift is created.

Uniform Stabilization of the Petrovsky-Wave Nonlinear coupled system with strong damping

This paper concerns the well-posedness and uniform stabilization of the

global weak solutions for this problem is established by using the Galerkin
method. Meanwhile, under a clever use of the multiplier method, we estimate the
total energy decay rate.

On the long-time statistical behavior of smooth solutions of the weakly damped, stochastically-driven KdV equation
|
This paper considers the damped periodic Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation in
the presence of a white-in-time and spatially smooth stochastic source term and
studies the long-time behavior of solutions. We show that the integrals of
motion for KdV can be exploited to prove regularity and ergodic properties of
invariant measures for damped stochastic KdV. First, by considering non-trivial
modifications of the integrals of motion, we establish Lyapunov structure by
proving that moments of Sobolev norms of solutions at all orders of regularity
are bounded globally-in-time; existence of invariant measures follows as an
immediate consequence. Next, we prove a weak Foias-Prodi type estimate for
damped stochastic KdV, for which the synchronization occurs in expected value.
This estimate plays a crucial role throughout our subsequent analysis. As a
first novel application, we combine the Foias-Prodi estimate with the Lyapunov
structure to establish that invariant measures are supported on $C^\infty$
functions provided that the external driving forces belong to $C^\infty$. We
then establish ergodic properties of invariant measures, treating the regimes
of arbitrary damping and large damping separately. For arbitrary damping, we
demonstrate that the framework of `asymptotic coupling' can be implemented for
a compact proof of uniqueness of the invariant measure provided that
sufficiently many directions in phase space are stochastically forced. Our
proof is paradigmatic for SPDEs for which a weak Foias-Prodi type property
holds. Lastly, for large damping, we establish the existence of a spectral gap
with respect to a Wasserstein-like distance, and exponential mixing and
uniqueness of the invariant measure follows.

magnetic Schr\"odinger operator.

conditions for the density-suppressed motility function, we explore how strong
the logistic damping can warrant the global boundedness of solutions, and
further establish the asymptotic behavior of solutions on top of the

Effect of a viscous fluid shell on the propagation of gravitational waves
|
In this paper we show that there are circumstances in which the damping of
gravitational waves (GWs) propagating through a viscous fluid can be highly
significant; in particular, this applies to Core Collapse Supernovae (CCSNe).
In previous work, we used linearized perturbations on a fixed background within
the Bondi-Sachs formalism, to determine the effect of a dust shell on GW
propagation. Here, we start with the (previously found) velocity field of the
matter, and use it to determine the shear tensor of the fluid flow. Then, for a
viscous fluid, the energy dissipated is calculated, leading to an equation for
GW damping. It is found that the damping effect agrees with previous results
when the wavelength $\lambda$ is much smaller than the radius $r_i$ of the
matter shell; but if $\lambda\gg r_i$, then the damping effect is greatly
increased.
Next, the paper discusses an astrophysical application, CCSNe. There are
several different physical processes that generate GWs, and many models have
been presented in the literature. The damping effect thus needs to be evaluated
with each of the parameters $\lambda,r_i$ and the coefficient of shear
viscosity $\eta$, having a range of values. It is found that in most cases
there will be significant damping, and in some cases that it is almost
complete.
We also consider the effect of viscous damping on primordial gravitational
waves (pGWs) generated during inflation in the early Universe. Two cases are
investigated where the wavelength is either much shorter than the shell radii
or much longer; we find that there are conditions that will produce significant
damping, to the extent that the waves would not be detectable.

hence immediately differentiable. Moreover, we show that $(S(t))_{t\geq0}$ is
exponentially stable.

On extended lifespan for 1d damped wave equation
|
In this manuscript, a sharp lifespan estimate of solutions to semilinear
classical damped wave equation is investigated in one dimensional case, when
the sum of initial position and speed is $0$ pointwisely. Especially, an
extension of lifespan is shown in this case. Moreover, existence of some global
solutions are obtained by a direct computation.

Decay rates for a variable-coefficient wave equation with nonlinear time-dependent damping
|
In this paper, a class of variable-coefficient wave equations equipped with
time-dependent damping and the nonlinear source is considered. We show that the
total energy of the system decays to zero with an explicit and precise decay
rate estimate under different assumptions on the feedback with the help of the
method of weighted energy integral.

Fast energy decay for wave equation with a monotone potential and an effective damping

We consider the total energy decay of the Cauchy problem for wave equations
with a potential and an effective damping. We treat it in the whole
one-dimensional Euclidean space. Fast energy decay is established with the help
of potential. The proofs of main results rely on a multiplier method and
modified techniques adopted in [8].

Blow-up for semilinear wave equations with damping and potential in high dimensional Schwarzschild spacetime

In this work, we study the blow up results to power-type semilinear wave
equation in the high dimensional Schwarzschild spacetime, with damping and

the assumption that the support of the initial date should be far away from the
black hole.

Lifespan estimates for 1d damped wave equation with zero moment initial data

In this manuscript, a sharp lifespan estimate of solutions to semilinear

Damped Euler system with attractive Riesz interaction forces

We consider the barotropic Euler equations with pairwise attractive Riesz
interactions and linear velocity damping in the periodic domain. We establish
the global-in-time well-posedness theory for the system near an equilibrium
state. We also analyze the large-time behavior of solutions showing the
exponential rate of convergence toward the equilibrium state as time goes to
infinity.

The damped wave equation and associated polymer
|
Considering the damped wave equation with a Gaussian noise $F$ where $F$ is
white in time and has a covariance function depending on spatial variables, we
will see that this equation has a mild solution which is stationary in time
$t$. We define a weakly self-avoiding polymer with intrinsic length $J$
associated to this SPDE. Our main result is that the polymer has an effective
radius of approximately $J^{5/3}$.

Indirect boundary stabilization for weakly coupled degenerate wave equations under fractional damping

one-dimensional system of degenerate wave equations coupled via zero order
terms with one boundary fractional damping acting on one end only. We prove
optimal polynomial energy decay rate of order $1/t^{(3-\tau)}$. The method is
based on the frequency domain approach combined with multiplier technique.

Uniform estimates for solutions of nonlinear focusing damped wave equations

For a damped wave (or Klein-Gordon) equation on a bounded domain, with a
focusing power-like nonlinearity satisfying some growth conditions, we prove
that a global solution is bounded in the energy space, uniformly in time. Our
result applies in particular to the case of a cubic equation on a bounded
domain of dimension 3.

A modified R1 X R1 method for helioseismic rotation inversions
|
We present an efficient method for two dimensional inversions for the solar
rotation rate using the Subtractive Optimally Localized Averages (SOLA) method
and a modification of the R1 X R1 technique proposed by Sekii (1993). The SOLA
method is based on explicit construction of averaging kernels similar to the
Backus-Gilbert method. The versatility and reliability of the SOLA method in
reproducing a target form for the averaging kernel, in combination with the
idea of the R1 X R1 decomposition, results in a computationally very efficient
inversion algorithm. This is particularly important for full 2-D inversions of
helioseismic data in which the number of modes runs into at least tens of
thousands.

Globular Cluster Microlensing: Globular Clusters as Microlensing Targets

We investigate the possibility of using globular clusters as targets for
microlensing searches. Such searches will be challenging and require more
powerful telescopes than now employed, but are feasible in the 0 future.
Although expected event rates are low, we show that the wide variety of lines
of sight to globular clusters greatly enhances the ability to distinguish
between halo models using microlensing observations as compared to LMC/SMC
observations alone.

An Intrinsic Baldwin Effect in the H-beta Broad Emission Line in the Spectrum of NGC 5548

We investigate the possibility of an intrinsic Baldwin Effect (i.e.,nonlinear
emission-line response to continuum variations) in the broad H-beta emission
line of the active galaxy NGC 5548 using cross-correlation techniques to remove
light travel-time effects from the data. We find a nonlinear relationship
between the H-beta emission line and continuum fluxes that is in good agreement
with theoretical predictions. We suggest that similar analysis of multiple
lines might provide a useful diagnostic of physical conditions in the
broad-line region.

feasibility of its indirect detection via observations of a diffuse gamma-ray
signal due to neutralino annihilation within M31 is examined.

Model-Independent Reionization Observables in the CMB
|
We represent the reionization history of the universe as a free function in
redshift and study the potential for its extraction from CMB polarization
spectra. From a principal component analysis, we show that the ionization
history information is contained in 5 modes, resembling low-order Fourier modes
in redshift space. The amplitude of these modes represent a compact description
of the observable properties of reionization in the CMB, easily predicted given
a model for the ionization fraction. Measurement of these modes can ultimately
constrain the total optical depth, or equivalently the initial amplitude of
fluctuations to the 1% level regardless of the true model for reionization.

Dynamics of homogeneous magnetizations in strong transverse driving fields
|
Spatially homogeneous solutions of the Landau--Lifshitz--Gilbert equation are
analysed. The conservative as well as the dissipative case is considered
explicitly. For the linearly polarized driven Hamiltonian system we apply
canonical perturbation theory to uncover the main resonances as well as the
global phase space structure. In the case of circularly polarized driven
dissipative motion we present the complete bifurcation diagram including
bifurcations up to codimension three.

Electronic properties of the degenerate Hubbard Model : A dynamical mean field approach

including a doubly degenerate strongly correlated site has been introduced and
solved in the framework of the non-crossing approximation (NCA). Mott-Hubbard
transitions have been examined in details, including the calculation of Coulomb
repulsion critical values and electronic densities of states for any regime of
parameters.

Theoretical and Experimental Approach to Spin Dynamics in Thin Magnetic Films
|
The Landau-Lifshitz (L-L) equation describing the time dependence of the
magnetisation vector is numerically integrated fully without any simplifying
assumptions in the time domain and the magnetisation time series obtained is
Fourier transformed (FFT) to yield the permeability spectrum up to 10 GHz. The
non linear results are compared to the experimental results obtained on
magnetic amorphous thin films of Co-Zr, Co-Zr-Re. We analyse our results with
the frequency response obtained directly from the Landau-Lifshitz equation as
well as with the second order Gilbert frequency response.

Finite lattice size effect in the ground state phase diagram of quasi-two-dimensional magnetic dipolar dots array with perpendicular anisotropy
|
A prototype Hamiltonian for the generic patterned magnetic structures, of
dipolar interaction with perpendicular anisotropy, is investigated within the
finite-size framework by Landau-Lifshift-Gilbert classical spin dynamics.
Modifications on the ground state phase diagram are discussed with an emphasis
on the disappearance of continuous degeneracy in the ground state of in-plane
phase due to the finite lattice size effect. The symmetry-governed ground state
evolution upon the lattice size increase provides a critical insight into the
systematic transition to the infinite extreme.

Current-spin coupling for ferromagnetic domain walls in fine wires
|
The coupling between a current and a domain wall is examined. In the presence
of a finite current and the absence of a potential which breaks the
translational symmetry, there is a perfect transfer of angular momentum from
the conduction electrons to the wall. As a result, the ground state is in
uniform motion. This remains the case when relaxation is accounted for. This is
described by, appropriately modified, Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equations.

Hysteresis loops of magnetic thin films with perpendicular anisotropy
|
We model the magnetization of quasi two-dimensional systems with easy
perpendicular (z-)axis anisotropy upon change of external magnetic field along
z. The model is derived from the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation for
magnetization evolution, written in closed form in terms of the z component of
the magnetization only. The model includes--in addition to the external
field--magnetic exchange, dipolar interactions and structural disorder. The
phase diagram in the disorder/interaction strength plane is presented, and the
different qualitative regimes are analyzed. The results compare very well with
observed experimental hysteresis loops and spatial magnetization patterns, as
for instance for the case of Co-Pt multilayers.

Relaxing-Precessional Magnetization Switching
|
A new way of magnetization switching employing both the spin-transfer torque
and the torque by a magnetic field is proposed. The solution of the
Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation shows that the dynamics of the magnetization
in the initial stage of the switching is similar to that in the precessional
switching, while that in the final stage is rather similar to the relaxing
switching. We call the present method the relaxing-precessional switching. It
offers a faster and lower-power-consuming way of switching than the relaxing
switching and a more controllable way than the precessional switching.

Magnetization reversal through synchronization with a microwave
|
Based on the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation, it can be shown that a
circularly-polarized microwave can reverse the magnetization of a Stoner
particle through synchronization. In comparison with magnetization reversal
induced by a static magnetic field, it can be shown that when a proper
microwave frequency is used the minimal switching field is much smaller than
that of precessional magnetization reversal. A microwave needs only to overcome
the energy dissipation of a Stoner particle in order to reverse magnetization
unlike the conventional method with a static magnetic field where the switching
field must be of the order of magnetic anisotropy.

Time Quantified Monte Carlo Algorithm for Interacting Spin Array Micromagnetic Dynamics

In this paper, we reexamine the validity of using time quantified Monte Carlo
(TQMC) method [Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 163 (2000); Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 067208
(2006)] in simulating the stochastic dynamics of interacting magnetic
nanoparticles. The Fokker-Planck coefficients corresponding to both TQMC and
Langevin dynamical equation (Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert, LLG) are derived and
compared in the presence of interparticle interactions. The time quantification
factor is obtained and justified. Numerical verification is shown by using TQMC
and Langevin methods in analyzing spin-wave dispersion in a linear array of
magnetic nanoparticles.

Self Consistent NEGF-LLG Model for Spin-Torque Based Devices
|
We present here a self consistent solution of quantum transport, using the
Non Equilibrium Green's Function (NEGF) method, and magnetization dynamics,
using the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) formulation. We have applied this model
to study current induced magnetic switching due to `spin torque' in a device
where the electronic transport is ballistic and the free magnetic layer is
sandwiched between two anti-parallel ferromagnetic contacts. The device shows
clear hysteretic current-voltage characteristics, at room temperature, with a
sharp transition between the bistable states and hence can be used as a
non-volatile memory. We show that the proposed design may allow reducing the
switching current by an order of magnitude.

Thermally-Assisted Current-Driven Domain Wall Motion

Starting from the stochastic Landau-Lifschitz-Gilbert equation, we derive
Langevin equations that describe the nonzero-temperature dynamics of a rigid
domain wall. We derive an expression for the average drift velocity of the
domain wall as a function of the applied current, and find qualitative
agreement with recent magnetic semiconductor experiments. Our model implies
that at any nonzero temperature the average domain-wall velocity initially
varies linearly with current, even in the absence of non-adiabatic spin
torques.

Large cone angle magnetization precession of an individual nanomagnet with dc electrical detection
|
We demonstrate on-chip resonant driving of large cone-angle magnetization
precession of an individual nanoscale permalloy element. Strong driving is
realized by locating the element in close proximity to the shorted end of a
coplanar strip waveguide, which generates a microwave magnetic field. We used a
microwave frequency modulation method to accurately measure resonant changes of
the dc anisotropic magnetoresistance. Precession cone angles up to $9^{0}$ are
determined with better than one degree of resolution. The resonance peak shape
is well-described by the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation.

Low relaxation rate in a low-Z alloy of iron
|
The longest relaxation time and sharpest frequency content in ferromagnetic
precession is determined by the intrinsic (Gilbert) relaxation rate \emph{$G$}.
For many years, pure iron (Fe) has had the lowest known value of $G=\textrm{57
Mhz}$ for all pure ferromagnetic metals or binary alloys. We show that an
epitaxial iron alloy with vanadium (V) possesses values of $G$ which are
significantly reduced, to 35$\pm$5 Mhz at 27% V. The result can be understood
as the role of spin-orbit coupling in generating relaxation, reduced through
the atomic number $Z$.

Distance properties of expander codes

We study the minimum distance of codes defined on bipartite graphs. Weight
spectrum and the minimum distance of a random ensemble of such codes are

the overall code is asymptotically good, and sometimes meets the
Gilbert-Varshamov bound.
Constructive families of expander codes are presented whose minimum distance
asymptotically exceeds the product bound for all code rates between 0 and 1.

parametrization that allows a comparison between the two models. Besides the

Model, modifies the usual electroweak symmetry breaking conditions involving
$\tan \beta$ and the other free parameters of the model. The study implies new
constraints which (in contrast with the existing ones like $1 \leq \tan \beta
\leq m_t/m_b$) are fully model-independent and exclude more restrictively a
region around $\tan \beta \sim 1$. Further results of this study will be only
touched upon here.

"the Instability of String-Theoretic Black Holes"
|
It is demonstrated that static, charged, spherically--symmetric black holes
in string theory are classically and catastrophically unstable to linearized
perturbations in four dimensions, and moreover that unstable modes appear for
arbitrarily small positive values of the charge. This catastrophic classical
instability dominates and is distinct from much smaller and less significant
effects such as possible quantum mechanical evaporation. The classical
instability of the string--theoretic black hole contrasts sharply with the
situation which obtains for the Reissner--Nordstr\"om black hole of general
relativity, which has been shown by Chandrasekhar to be perfectly stable to
linearized perturbations at the event horizon.

The combinatorics of biased riffle shuffles

This paper studies biased riffle shuffles, first defined by Diaconis, Fill,
and Pitman. These shuffles generalize the well-studied Gilbert-Shannon-Reeds
shuffle and convolve nicely. An upper bound is given for the time for these
shuffles to converge to the uniform distribution; this matches lower bounds of
Lalley. A careful version of a bijection of Gessel leads to a generating
function for cycle structure after one of these shuffles and gives new results
about descents in random permutations. Results are also obtained about the
inversion and descent structure of a permutation after one of these shuffles.

Transitive and Self-dual Codes Attaining the Tsfasman-Vladut-Zink Bound

Even more, transitive codes attain the Tsfasman-Vladut-Zink bound over F_q, for
all aquares q=l^2. We also show that self-orthogonal and self-dual codes attain
the Tsfasman-Vladut-Zink bound, thus improving previous results about self-dual
codes attaining the Gilbert-Varshamov bound. The main tool is a new
asymptotically optimal tower (E_n) of function fields over F_q where all
extensions E_n/E_0 are Galois.

techniques to obtain their unlabelled enumeration.

Deformation spaces of trees

Culler-Vogtmann's outer space, and spaces of JSJ decompositions. We discuss
what features are common to trees in a given deformation space, how to pass
from one tree to all other trees in its deformation space, and the topology of
deformation spaces. In particular, we prove that all deformation spaces are
contractible complexes.

Uniform spectral properties of one-dimensional quasicrystals, III. $α$-continuity

purely $\alpha$-continuous spectrum, uniformly for all phases. The proofs rely
on the unique decomposition property of Sturmian potentials, a
mass-reproduction technique based upon a Gordon-type argument, and on the
Jitomirskaya-Last extension of the Gilbert-Pearson theory of subordinacy.

Vector Coherent States on Clifford algebras
|
The well-known canonical coherent states are expressed as an infinite series
in powers of a complex number $z$ together with a positive sequence of real
numbers $\rho(m)=m$. In this article, in analogy with the canonical coherent
states, we present a class of vector coherent states by replacing the complex
variable $z$ by a real Clifford matrix. We also present another class of vector
coherent states by simultaneously replacing $z$ by a real Clifford matrix and
$\rho(m)$ by a real matrix. As examples, we present vector coherent states on
quaternions and octonions with their real matrix representations.

Fractal Dimensions of the Hydrodynamic Modes of Diffusion
|
We consider the time-dependent statistical distributions of diffusive
processes in relaxation to a stationary state for simple, two dimensional
chaotic models based upon random walks on a line. We show that the cumulative
functions of the hydrodynamic modes of diffusion form fractal curves in the
complex plane, with a Hausdorff dimension larger than one. In the limit of
vanishing wavenumber, we derive a simple expression of the diffusion
coefficient in terms of this Hausdorff dimension and the positive Lyapunov
exponent of the chaotic model.

The Fractality of the Hydrodynamic Modes of Diffusion
|
Transport by normal diffusion can be decomposed into the so-called
hydrodynamic modes which relax exponentially toward the equilibrium state. In
chaotic systems with two degrees of freedom, the fine scale structure of these
hydrodynamic modes is singular and fractal. We characterize them by their
Hausdorff dimension which is given in terms of Ruelle's topological pressure.
For long-wavelength modes, we derive a striking relation between the Hausdorff
dimension, the diffusion coefficient, and the positive Lyapunov exponent of the
system. This relation is tested numerically on two chaotic systems exhibiting
diffusion, both periodic Lorentz gases, one with hard repulsive forces, the
other with attractive, Yukawa forces. The agreement of the data with the theory
is excellent.

Non-equilibrium Lorentz gas on a curved space
|
The periodic Lorentz gas with external field and iso-kinetic thermostat is
equivalent, by conformal transformation, to a billiard with expanding
phase-space and slightly distorted scatterers, for which the trajectories are
straight lines. A further time rescaling allows to keep the speed constant in
that new geometry. In the hyperbolic regime, the stationary state of this
billiard is characterized by a phase-space contraction rate, equal to that of
the iso-kinetic Lorentz gas. In contrast to the iso-kinetic Lorentz gas where
phase-space contraction occurs in the bulk, the phase-space contraction rate
here takes place at the periodic boundaries.

Atom cooling and trapping by disorder
|
We demonstrate the possibility of three-dimensional cooling of neutral atoms
by illuminating them with two counterpropagating laser beams of mutually
orthogonal linear polarization, where one of the lasers is a speckle field,
i.e. a highly disordered but stationary coherent light field. This
configuration gives rise to atom cooling in the transverse plane via a Sisyphus
cooling mechanism similar to the one known in standard two-dimensional optical
lattices formed by several plane laser waves. However, striking differences
occur in the spatial diffusion coefficients as well as in local properties of
the trapped atoms.

Senescence Can Explain Microbial Persistence
|
It has been known for many years that small fractions of persister cells
resist killing in many bacterial colony-antimicrobial confrontations. These
persisters are not believed to be mutants. Rather it has been hypothesized that
they are phenotypic variants. Current models allow cells to switch in and out
of the persister phenotype. Here we suggest a different explanation, namely
senescence, for persister formation. Using a mathematical model including age
structure, we show that senescence provides a natural explanation for
persister-related phenomena including the observations that persister fraction
depends on growth phase in batch culture and dilution rate in continuous
culture.
