The protein-tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) 'YopH' is a virulence factor of Yersinia pestis, the causative agent of plague. Potential use of Yersinia as a bioterrorism agent renders YopH inhibitors of therapeutic importance. Previously, we had examined the inhibitory potencies of a variety of phosphotyrosyl (pTyr) mimetics against the human PTP1B enzyme by displaying them in the EGFR-derived hexapep...

A new integrable spin chain of the Haldane-Shastry type is introduced. It is interpreted as the inverse-square interacting spin chain with a reflecting end. The lattice points of this model consist of the square of the zeros of the Laguerre polynomial. Using the “exchange operator formalism”, the integrals of motion for the model are explicitly constructed. Typeset using REVTEX ∗E-mail address ...

YouTube relies on a massively distributed Content Delivery Network (CDN) to stream the billions of videos in its catalogue. Unfortunately, very little information about the design of such CDN is available. This, combined with the pervasiveness of YouTube, poses a big challenge for Internet Service Providers (ISPs), which are compelled to optimize end-users’ Quality of Experience (QoE) while hav...

The conformal limit over an anti-ferromagnetic vacuum of the fermionic spin 1 2 Calogero-Sutherland Model is derived by using the wedge product formalism. The space of states in the conformal limit is identified with the Fock space of two complex fermions, or, equivalently, with a tensor product of an irreducible level-1 module of ŝl2 and a Fock space module of the Heisenberg algebra. The Hamil...

We consider the Heisenberg spin chain in the presence of integrable spin defects. Using the Bethe ansatz methodology, we extract the associated transmission amplitudes, that describe the interaction between the particle-like excitations displayed by the models and the spin impurity. In the attractive regime of the XXZ model, we also derive the breather’s transmission amplitude. We compare our f...

In quantum theory Hamilton operators with spininteractions have a long history [1 – 5]. Triple spin interaction have been studied by several authors [6 – 19]. Iglói [6] investigated an Ising model with three-spin interaction by finite-size scaling and applying free boundary conditions. Vanderzande and Iglói [7] studied the critical behaviour and logarithmic corrections of a quantum model with t...

We study the strongly coupled 2-flavor lattice Schwinger model and the SU(2)-color QCD2. The strong coupling limit, even with its inherent nonuniversality, makes accurate predictions of the spectrum of the continuum models and provides an intuitive picture of the gauge theory vacuum. The massive excitations of the gauge model are computable in terms of spin-spin correlators of the quantum Heise...
