Notes about the KP/BKP correspondence

JASs Correspondence & Notes

The knowledge of the evolution of the human genome is strictly dependent on the availability of appropriate genetic markers and their relative coverage of genetic variation which refine the phylogenetic reconstruction. While autosomal markers are particularly valuable for recognizing correspondence between genetic and geographic distances, markers on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) or Non Recombining...

JASs Correspondence & Notes

A lot of ink has been spilt in Paleoanthro-pology in discussing whether or not Neander-thals possessed complex language (which means " human language in the modern sense " , quoting Arbib, 2005, p. 21, that is, a representational and communicative system with hierarchical and recursive structure), given their phylogenetic closeness to modern humans. Recently, Frayer et al. (2010) (this journal,...

NOTES AND CORRESPONDENCE Comments on ‘‘A Common Misunderstanding about the Voigt Line Profile’’

In a recent paper, it was argued that some of the illustrations in popular textbooks comparing the Lorentz and Gaussian profiles with the ‘‘corresponding’’ Voigt profile are incorrect. These ‘‘misunderstandings’’ are shown to be a result of ambiguous specifications of the Voigt profile (i.e., there is no unique corresponding Voigt profile). Additionally, some comments on half-widths, numerics, ...

About dS / CFT Correspondence

In this paper we will study some aspects of dS/CFT correspondence. We will focus on the relation between Witten's non-standard de Sitter inner product and correlators in the holographic dual conformal field theory. We will argue that from the definition of Witten's inner product and conjecture that the Hilbert space of initial states of massive scalar field on I − in de Sitter space corresponds...
