Abstruct-A new model for a room transfer function (RTF) by using common acoustical poles that correspond to resonance properties of a room is proposed. These poles are estimated as the common values of many RTF’s corresponding to different source and receiver positions. Since there is one-to-one correspondence between poles and AR coefficients, these poles are calculated as common AR coefficien...

We discuss the effects of so-called gluonic poles in twist-three hadronic matrix elements, as first considered by Qiu and Sterman, in the Drell-Yan process. These effects cannot be distinguished from those of timereversal odd distribution functions, although time-reversal invariance is not broken by the presence of gluonic poles. Both gluonic poles and time-reversal odd distribution functions c...

The convergence properties of cycle expanded periodic orbit expressions for the spectra of classical and semiclassical time evolution operators have been studied for the open three disk billiard. We present evidence that both the classical and the semiclassical Selberg zeta function have poles. Applying a Padé approximation on the expansions of the full Euler products, as well as on the individ...
