Multiple D2-Brane Action from M2-Branes

We study the detail derivation of the multiple D2-brane effective action from multiple M2-branes in the Bagger-Lambert-Gustavsson (BLG) theory and the Aharony-Bergman-Jafferis-Maldacena (ABJM) theory by employing the novel Higgs mechanism. We show explicitly that the high-order F^3 and F^4 terms are commutator terms, and conjecture that all the high-order terms are commutator terms. Because the commutator terms can be treated as the covariant derivative terms, these high-order terms do not contribute to the multiple D2-brane effective action. Inspired by the derivation of a single D2-brane from a M2-brane, we consider the curved M2-branes and introduce an auxiliary field. Integrating out the auxiliary field, we indeed obtain the correct high-order F^4 terms in the D2-brane effective action from the BLG theory and the ABJM theory with SU(2)\times SU(2) gauge symmetry, but we can not obtain the correct high-order F^4 terms from the ABJM theory with U(N)\times U(N) and SU(N)\times SU(N) gauge symmetries for N > 2. We also briefly comment on the (gauged) BF membrane theory.

Nonexistence of triples of nonisomorphic connected graphs with isomorphic connected $P_3$-graphs

In the paper "Broersma and Hoede, {\it Path graphs}, J. Graph Theory {\bf 13} (1989) 427-444", the authors proposed a problem whether there is a triple of mutually nonisomorphic connected graphs which have an isomorphic connected $P_3$-graph. For a long time, this problem remains unanswered. In this paper, we give it a negative answer that there is no such triple, and thus completely solve this problem.

Realistic Type IIB Supersymmetric Minkowski Flux Vacua

We show that there exist supersymmetric Minkowski vacua on Type IIB toroidal orientifold with general flux compactifications where the RR tadpole cancellation conditions can be relaxed elegantly. Then we present a realistic Pati-Salam like model. At the string scale, the gauge symmetry can be broken down to the Standard Model (SM) gauge symmetry, the gauge coupling unification can be achieved naturally, and all the extra chiral exotic particles can be decoupled so that we have the supersymmetric SMs with/without SM singlet(s) below the string scale. The observed SM fermion masses and mixings can also be obtained. In addition, the unified gauge coupling, the dilaton, the complex structure moduli, the real parts of the Kähler moduli and the sum of the imaginary parts of the Kähler moduli can be determined as functions of the four-dimensional dilaton and fluxes, and can be estimated as well.

Estimate of the charmed 0-- hybrid meson spectrum from quenched lattice QCD

We compute from quenched lattice QCD the ground state masses of the charmed hybrid mesons cbar c g, with exotic quantum numbers JPC=1-+, 0+- and 0--. The 0-- hybrid meson spectrum has never been provided by lattice simulations due to the difficulties to extract high gluonic excitations from noise. We employ improved gauge and fermion actions on the anisotropic lattice, which reduce greatly the lattice artifacts, and lead to very good signals. The data are extrapolated to the continuum limit, with finite size effects under well control. For 1-+ and 0+- hybrid mesons, the ground state masses are 4.405(38) GeV and 4.714(52) GeV. We predict for the first time from lattice QCD, the ground state mass of 0-- to be 5.883(146) GeV.

Gluonic excitation of non-exotic hybrid charmonium from lattice QCD

The ground and first excited states of the hybrid charmonium ${\bar c} c g$, with non-exotic quantum numbers $J^{PC}=0^{-+}$, $1^{--}$ and $1^{++}$ are investigated using quenched lattice QCD. They are completely ignored in the literature, only because their ground states are degenerate with $η_c$, $J/ψ$, and $χ_{c1}$, and are difficult to be distinguished from these conventional charmonium mesons in experiment. However, we observe strong gluonic radial excitations in the first excited states; We predict that their masses are 4.352(225)GeV, 4.379(149)GeV and 7.315(257)GeV, completely different from the first excited states of the corresponding conventional charmonium. Their relevance to the recent discovery of the Y(4260) state and future experimental search for other states are also discussed.

The Essential Norm of Composition Operator between Generalized Bloch Spaces in Polydiscs and its Applications

Let $U^{n}$ be the unit polydisc of ${\Bbb C}^{n}$ and $ϕ=(ϕ_1, >..., ϕ_n)$ a holomorphic self-map of $U^{n}.$ By ${\cal B}^p(U^{n})$, ${\cal B}^p_{0}(U^{n})$ and ${\cal B}^p_{0*}(U^{n})$ denote the $p$-Bloch space, Little $p$-Bloch space and Little star $p$-Bloch space in the unit polydisc $U^n$ respectively, where $p, q>0$. This paper gives the estimates of the essential norms of bounded composition operators $C_ϕ$ induced by $ϕ$ between ${\cal B}^p(U^n)$ (${\cal B}^p_{0}(U^n)$ or ${\cal B}^p_{0*}(U^n)$) and ${\cal B}^q(U^n)$ (${\cal B}^q_{0}(U^n)$ or ${\cal B}^q_{0*}(U^n)$). As their applications, some necessary and sufficient conditions for the bounded composition operators $C_ϕ$ to be compact from ${\cal B}^p(U^n)$ $({\cal B}^p_{0}(U^n)$ or ${\cal B}^p_{0*}(U^n))$ into ${\cal B}^q(U^n)$ (${\cal B}^q_{0}(U^n)$ or ${\cal B}^q_{0*}(U^n)$) are obtained.

Simulations of dusty plasmas using a special-purpose computer system for gravitational N-body problems

Simulations of dusty plasmas were performed using GRAPE-6, a special-purpose computer designed for gravitational N-body problems. The collective behaviour of dust particles, which are injected into the plasma, was studied by means of three-dimensional computer simulations. As an example of a dusty plasma simulation, we have calculated movement of dust particles in plasmas under microgravity conditions. In this simulation, a dust-free region called the "void" is observed in the dust cloud. Another example was to simulate experiments on Coulomb crystals in plasmas. Formation of a Coulomb crystal was observed under typical laboratory conditions. For the simulation of a dusty plasma in microgravity with 3x10^4 particles, GRAPE-6 can perform the whole operation 1000 times faster than by using a Pentium4-1.6GHz CPU.
