The 5-methylthioadenosine (MTA) or Yang cycle is a set of reactions that recycle MTA to Met. In plants, MTA is a byproduct of polyamine, ethylene, and nicotianamine biosynthesis. Vascular transcriptome analyses revealed phloem-specific expression of the Yang cycle gene 5-METHYLTHIORIBOSE KINASE1 (MTK1) in Plantago major and Arabidopsis thaliana. As Arabidopsis has only a single MTK gene, we hyp...

This paper studies the Yang-Lee edge singularity of 2-dimensional (2D) Ising model through a quantum spin chain. In particular, finite-size scaling measurements on the quantum spin chain are used to determine the low-lying excitation spectrum and central charge at the Yang-Lee edge singularity. The measured values are consistent with predictions for the (A4, A1) minimal conformal field theory. ...

The electric quadrupole, hexadecapole moments, energy (kJmol -1) for some armchair polyhex carbon nanotubes TUVC6[2p,q] are performed by Beck-Lee-Yang-Parr [B3LYP] on 3-21G basis set using the standard procedure indices GAUSSIAN 98, then the Padmakar-Ivan (PI) index of TUVC6[2p,q] nanotubes in the terms of their circumference (2p) and lengh (q) is calculated and the relationships between the Pa...

This paper arose from a minicourse given by the first author at MIT in the Spring of 1999, when the second author extended and improved his lecture notes of this minicourse. It contains a systematic and elementary introduction to a new area of the theory of quantum groups – the theory of the classical and quantum dynamical Yang-Baxter equations. The quantum dynamical Yang-Baxter equation is a g...

Philosophy is the study of general and fundamental problems concerning matters such as existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind, and language.1 Zhou Yi Xi Ci (The Zhou Book of Change •The Survey)said: “Alternation between Yin and Yang is called Tao (Way)”,2 Tao is the law of happen and development and changes for the things, “ Yin-Yang ‘ s greatness and vastness match the images of heaven and...

To understand the distribution of the Yang–Lee zeros in quantum integrable field theories we analyse the simplest of these systems given by the 2D Yang– Lee model. The grand-canonical partition function of this quantum field theory, as a function of the fugacity z and the inverse temperature β, can be computed in terms of the thermodynamics Bethe Ansatz based on its exact S-matrix. We extract t...

Let P be a principal U(1)-bundle over a closed manifold M . On P , one can define a modified version of the Ricci flow called the Ricci Yang-Mills flow, due to these equations being a coupling of Ricci flow and the Yang-Mills heat flow. We use maximal regularity theory and ideas of Simonett concerning the asymptotic behavior of abstract quasilinear parabolic partial differential equations to st...
