Random rectangular graphs (RRGs) represent a generalization of the random geometric graphs in which the nodes are embedded into hyperrectangles instead of on hypercubes. The synchronizability of RRG model is studied. Both upper and lower bounds of the eigenratio of the network Laplacian matrix are determined analytically. It is proven that as the rectangular network is more elongated, the netwo...

By using the bifurcation theory of planar dynamical systems to a generalized Camassa–Holm equation 0960-0 doi:10 * Co E-m mt þ c0ux þ umx þ 2mux 1⁄4 cuxxx with m = u auxx, a 5 0, c0, c are constant, which is called CH-r equation, the existence of peakons and periodic cusp wave solutions is obtained. The analytic expressions of the peakons and periodic cusp wave solutions are given and numerical...

Recently Li and Peng (2009a) proposed a bias reduction method for estimating the endpoint of a distribution function via an external estimator for the so-called second order parameter. Unlike the same study for the tail index of a heavy tailed distribution, the above procedure requires a certain rate of convergence of the external estimator rather than consistence. This makes the choice of such...

We show that a chiral (f+if)-wave superconducting pairing may be induced in the lowest heavy hole band of a hole-doped semiconductor thin film through proximity contact with an s-wave superconductor. The chirality of the pairing originates from the 3π Berry phase accumulated for a heavy hole moving along a close path on the Fermi surface. There exist three chiral gapless Majorana edge states, i...

The physical model of geyser oscillations presents a challenge to experts, even under relatively simple and clear laboratory circumstances. Despite complex dynamics a qualitative analysis can be made based on video recording and real-time temperature and pressure measurements. The simple experiment with Geyser model is rich with several phenomena from the field of thermodynamics that are includ...

was emptied by the stomach pump, and strong coffee and other stimulants were freely administered. As she could not he roused, galvanism was resorted to, and applied to her body, and mustard to her extremities. These remedies, however, proved of no avail. She gradually sank, and died at 2-30 p. si. The autopsy was made by the Police Surgeon nineteen hours after death. The vessels of the brain we...

It is common for business people to operate with natural language statements. BR (BR) in this sense can be presented using the variation of structural language – BR templates. However, BR templates are not formal enough to be automatically processed. Furthermore, BR templates have to be in consistence with enterprise model, especially with its static structures – business objects. Object role m...

Diarrhoea supervened, and became profuse and persistent, continuing so, with occasional interruptions, till death; the motions were pea-soupy in colour and consistence, and were occasionally passed iu bed. She became delirious at night, and quite deaf at the end of the first week. Ten days before her death she suffered from bronchial catarrh. The abdomen did ...

This article presents a framework for the development of hypermedia systems, based on systematic modelling approaches. These introduce models at three abstraction levels (conceptual, navigation and presentation). An objectoriented approach, UWE, proposing UML extensions was adopted. The work described in this paper reports a solution for an integrated and consistent translation of those models ...

We report the observation of an analog of double electromagnetically induced absorption (EIA) in a plasmonic system consisting of two disk resonators side-coupled to a discrete metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguide. The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation calculations show that two absorption windows are obtained and can be easily tuned by adjusting the parameters of the two resonan...
