Vector Meson Dominance ideas together with a Finite Energy QCD sum rule allows for the determination of the qand the T dependence of the effective hadronic coupling constant gρππ in the space-like region. It turns out that gρππ(q , T ) vanishes at the critical temperature Tc, independently of q . A comparison with a previous independent QCD determination of the electromagnetic pion form factor ...

As is well known, an irreducible nonnegative matrix possesses a uniquely determined Perron vector. As the main result of this paper we give a description of the set of Perron vectors of all the matrices contained in an irreducible nonnegative interval matrix A. This result is then applied to show that there exists a subset A∗ of A parameterized by n parameters (instead of n2 ones in the descrip...

It is shown that the Pauli-Lubanski spin vector defined in terms of curvilinear co-ordinates does not satisfy Lorentz invariance for spin-1/2 particles in noninertial motion along a curved trajectory. The possibility of detecting this violation in muon decay experiments is explored, where the noninertial contribution to the decay rate becomes large for trajectories with small radius of curvatur...

Abstract. By the well-known result of Brown, Chevreau and Pearcy, every Hilbert space contraction with spectrum containing the unit circle has a nontrivial closed invariant subspace. Equivalently, there is a nonzero vector which is not cyclic. We show that each power bounded operator on a Hilbert space with spectral radius equal to one has a nonzero vector which is not supercyclic. Equivalently...

We adduce the results of the condensate fraction calculation for liquid helium-4. The method is derived from the first principles and involves minimum assumptions. The only experimental quantity we need in our calculations is the static structure factor which is easily measurable. We use the approximation in which expressions contain one summation in the wave vector space (or one integration it...

The attainable sets of the nonlinear control systems with integral constraint on the control functions are considered. It is assumed that the behavior of control system is described by a differential equation which is nonlinear with respect to phase-state vector and control vector. The admissible control functions are chosen from the closed ball centered at the origin with radius μ0 in Lp t0, θ...

By introducing a transformed pupil vector into the aberration expansions of an axially symmetric optical system, the aberration coefficients through third order of a pupil decentered off-axis optical system are obtained. Nodal aberration characteristics are revealed only by means of the pupil decentration vector and the aberration coefficients of the axially symmetric system, which shows great ...

conclusions in treatment of intra-articular distal radius fractures in middle-aged patients internal fixation with locking plates may be prefered to pin and plaster as the treatment of choice. results sf-36 test demonstrated a better general health (p < 0.001), mental health (p = 0.006), physical functioning (p < 0.001), social functioning (p < 0.001) and energy/fatigue (p < 0.001) in lcp group...

The writhing number of a curve in Euclidean 3-space, introduced by Călugăreanu (1959-61) and named by Fuller (1971), is the standard measure of the extent to which the curve wraps and coils around itself; it has proved its importance for molecular biologists in the study of knotted duplex DNA and of the enzymes which affect it. The helicity of a vector field defined on a domain in Euclidean 3-s...
