Phenomenology of a radion (φ) in the Randall-Sundrum scenario is discussed. The radion couples to the trace of energy momentum tensor of the standard model with a strength suppressed only by a new scale (Λφ) which is an order of the electroweak scale. In particular, the effective coupling of a radion to two gluons is enhanced due to the trace anomaly of QCD. Therefore, its production cross sect...

While propagation of dislocations in body centered cubic metals at low temperature is understood in terms of elementary steps on {110} planes, slip traces correspond often with other crystallographic or non-crystallographic planes. In the past, characterization of slip was limited to post-mortem electron microscopy and slip trace analysis on the sample surface. Here with in-situ Laue diffractio...

Abstract We introduce new entanglement measures on the set of density operators on tensor product Hilbert spaces. These measures are based on the greatest cross norm on the tensor product of the sets of trace class operators on Hilbert space. We show that they satisfy the basic requirements on entanglement measures discussed in the literature, including convexity, invariance under local unitary...

We present a fully abstract semantics for components. This semantics is formalized in terms of a notion of trace for components, providing a description of the component externally observable behavior inspired by UML sequence diagrams. Such a description abstracts from the actual implementation given by UML state-machines. Our full abstraction result is based on a may testing semantics which in...

In this paper, we trace four origins of agent-based computational economics (ACE), namely, the markets origin, the cellular-automata origin, the tournaments origin, and the experiments origin. Along with this trace, we examine how these origins have motivated different concepts and designs of agents in ACE, which starts from the early work on simple programmed agents, randomly behaving agents, ...

In the recent past, automatic selection or combination of kernels (or features) based on multiple kernel learning (MKL) approaches has been receiving significant attention from various research communities. Though MKL has been extensively studied in the context of support vector machines (SVM), it is relatively less explored for ratio-trace problems. In this paper, we show that MKL can be formu...

This article describes jTRACE, a freely available, cross-platform Java reimplementation of the TRACE model of spoken word recognition. The goal of the reimplementation is to facilitate the use of simulations by researchers who may not have the skills or time necessary to use or extend the original C implementation. In this article, we report a large-scale validation project, in which we have re...
