We consider the characteristic polynomial associated with the smoothed two point function in two dimensional large N principal chiral model. We numerically show that it undergoes a transition at a critical distance of the order of the correlation length. The transition is in the same universality class as two dimensional large N QCD.

Humans are exposed to both endogenous and exogenous N-nitroso compounds (NOCs), and many NOCs can be metabolically activated to generate a highly reactive species, diazoacetate, which is capable of inducing carboxymethylation of nucleobases in DNA. Here we report, for the first time, the chemical syntheses of authentic Ncarboxymethyl-20-deoxyadenosine (N-CMdA) and N-carboxymethyl-20-deoxycytidi...

A polytope is called a Coxeter polytope if its dihedral angles are integer parts of π. In this paper we prove that if a noncompact Coxeter polytope of finite volume in IH has exactly n+3 facets then n ≤ 16. We also find an example in IH and show that it is unique. 1. Consider a convex polytope P in n-dimensional hyperbolic space IH. A polytope is called a Coxeter polytope if its dihedral angles...
