This letter is an attempt to carry out a first-principle computation in M-theory using the point of view that the eleven-dimensional membrane gives the fundamental degrees of freedom of M-theory. Our aim is to derive the exact BPS R couplings in M-theory compactified on a torus T from the toroidal BPS membrane, by pursuing the analogy with the one-loop string theory computation. We exhibit an S...

Abstract We consider the problem of estimating a parameter $$\theta \in \Theta \subseteq {\mathbb {R}}^{d_{\theta }}$$ ? ? ? ? R d associated with Bayesian ...

We investigated the relationship between three electrophysiological indices of response anticipation in a spatial delayed response task with a low and high memory load manipulation: a slow cortical potential (SCP), theta desynchronization, and upper alpha synchronization. Individual differences in these three measures were examined in 531 adult twins and siblings. Heritability of the SCP at occ...

We give a construction of quantum LDPC codes dimension $\Theta(\log N)$ and distance $\Theta(N/\log as the code length $N\to\infty$. Using product chain complexes this also provides family $\Omega(N^{1-\alpha/2}/\log $\Omega(N^\alpha \log N)$, where $0 \le \alpha < 1$. introduce study new operation called lifted product, which naturally generalizes operations for complexes. Moreover, simple byp...

In this paper, we study skew cyclic codes with arbitrary length over the ring $R=\mathbb{F}_{p}+u\mathbb{F}_{p}$ where $p$ is an odd prime and $% u^{2}=0$. We characterize all skew cyclic codes of length $n$ as left $% R[x;\theta ]$-submodules of $R_{n}=R[x;\theta ]/\langle x^{n}-1\rangle $. We find all generator polynomials for these codes and describe their minimal spanning sets. Moreover, an...

A fully automatic, four-axis gonioreflectometer is described. It has an angular accuracy of 0.3 degrees and a range of 90 degrees in both the theta(i) and the theta(r) zenith angles. The gonioreflectometer is simpler than previous designs because of its use of rotating arms rather than moving carriages to mount the optical components. Where possible, commercial components have been used to redu...
