چکیده

We prove that the D4 root system (equivalently, the set of vertices of the regular 24-cell) is not a universally optimal spherical code. We further conjecture that there is no universally optimal spherical code of 24 points in S, based on numerical computations suggesting that every 5-design consisting of 24 points in S is in a 3-parameter family (which we describe explicitly, based on a construction due to Sali) of deformations of the D4 root system.

Following a recent work of Dolan and Osborn, we consider superconformal indices of four dimensional N = 1 supersymmetric field theories related by an electric-magnetic duality with the SP (2N) gauge group and fixed rank flavour groups. For the SP (2) (or SU(2)) case with 8 flavours, the electric theory has index described by an elliptic analogue of the Gauss hypergeometric function constructed ...

We study a multiple invasion model to simulate corrosion or intrusion processes. Estimated values for the fractal dimension of the invaded region reveal that the critical exponents vary as function of the generation number G, i.e., with the number of times the invasion process takes place. The averaged mass M of the invaded region decreases with a power-law as a function of G, M ∼ G, where the ...

In this paper the optimal unitarity lower bound on logarithmic slope of the diffraction peak is investigated. It is shown that the unitarity lower bound is just the optimal logarithmic slopes predicted by the principle of least distance in space of states. A systematic tendency towards the saturation of the most forward-peaked limit is observed from all the available experimental data of all pr...
