We take an approach to the Λ nonmesonic weak decay in nuclei based on the exchange of mesons under the guidelines of chiral Lagrangians. The one pion and one kaon exchange are considered, together with the exchange of two pions, either correlated, leading to an important scalar-isoscalar exchange (σ-like exchange), or uncorrelated (box diagrams). A drastic reduction of the OPE results for the Γ...

The aim of the present paper is to obtain common fixed point theorems by employing the recently introduced notion of weak reciprocal continuity. The new notion is a proper generalization of reciprocal continuity and is applicable to compatible mappings as well as noncompatible mappings. We demonstrate that weak reciprocal continuity ensures the existence of common fixed points under contractive...

It is generally believed that weak scale supersymmetry implies weak scale supergravity, in the sense that the masses of the gravitino and gravitationally coupled moduli have masses below 100 TeV. This Letter presents a realistic framework for supersymmetry breaking in which these masses can be much larger. This solves the cosmological problems of hidden sector models. Supersymmetry breaking is ...

We study two related versions of the no-impatience postulate in the context of transitive and reflexive relations on infinite utility streams which are not necessarily complete. Both are excluded by the traditional (weak) anonymity axiom. We show explicit social welfare relations satisfying Strong Pareto and the weaker version of noimpatience that are compatible with continuity in all the tradi...

We study the dynamical regime of wave turbulence of a vibrated thin elastic plate based on experimental and numerical observations. We focus our study on the strongly nonlinear regime described in a previous Letter by Yokoyama and Takaoka. At small forcing, a weakly nonlinear regime is compatible with the weak turbulence theory when the dissipation is localized at high wave number. When the for...

Absence of localization is demonstrated analytically to leading order in weak disorder in a one-dimensional Anderson model of a ring threaded by an Aharonov-Bohm (AB) flux. The result follows from adapting an earlier perturbation treatment of disorder in a superconducting ring subjected to an imaginary vector potential proportional to a depinning field for flux lines bound to random columnar de...

In many Discrete-Event Systems (DES) both state and event information are of importance to the systems designer. As a first step towards obtaining hierarchical models of systems, the behavior of Discrete-Event Systems with unobservable transitions and state output maps is considered. Observers for deterministic DES are generalized to nondeterministic DES and characterized using the join semilat...

G always denotes an archimedean `-group. We call G epicomplete if G is divisible, -complete, and laterally -complete. X always denotes a Tychono¤ space. D (X ) is the set of continuous f : X ! [ 1;+1] with f 1 (( 1;+1)) dense. It is familiar and useful that every G has representations in various D (X ) : It is known that (A) G is epicomplete with weak unit e if and only if there is a compact ba...

We analyze three-body decays of and . Under the factorization approach, there are tree level diagrams for these decay modes and the transition matrix element of decay is factorized into a form factor multiplied by decay constant and form factor multiplied into weak vertices form factor. The transition matrix element of decay is also factorized into a form factor multiplied into weak vertic...
