In this paper we give explicit descriptions of complete sets of mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) and orthogonal decompositions of special Lie algebras sln(C) obtained from commutative and symplectic semifields, and from some other non-semifield symplectic spreads. Relations between various constructions are studied as well. We showed that automorphism groups of complete sets of MUBs and correspon...

We present a new local Craya–Herring decomposition of three-dimensional vector fields using compactly supported biorthogonal wavelets. Therewith vector-valued function spaces are split into two orthogonal components, i.e., curl-free and divergencefree spaces. The latter is further decomposed into toroidal and poloidal parts to decorrelate horizontal from vertical contributions which are of part...

Novel time-harmonic beam fields have been recently obtained by utilizing a non-orthogonal coordinate system which is a priori matched to the field’s planar linearly-phased Gaussian aperture distribution. These waveobjects were termed tilted Gaussian beams. The present investigation is concerned with parameterization of these time-harmonic tilted Gaussian beams and of the wave phenomena associat...

This study discusses the application of Taguchi method in assessing minimum entropy generation and maximum heat transfer rate for natural convection in an enclosure embedded with isothermal cylinder. The simulations were planned based on Taguchi’s L25 orthogonal array with each trial performed under different conditions of position and aspect ratio (AR) of the cylinder. The thermal lattice Bolt...

We study Ricci flat 4-metrics of any signature under the assumption that they allow a Lie algebra of Killing fields with 2-dimensional orbits along which the metric degenerates and whose orthogonal distribution is not integrable. It turns out that locally there is a unique (up to a sign) metric which satisfies the conditions. This metric is of signature (++−−) and, moreover, homogeneous possess...

DRAFT VERSION The Majorana spinor is an element of a 4 dimensional real vector space. The Majorana spinor representations of the Rotation and Lorentz groups are irreducible. The spinor fields are space-time dependent spinors, solutions of the free Dirac equation. We define the Majorana-Fourier transform and relate it to the linear momentum of a spin one-half Poincare group representation. We sh...

Orthogonal electrodes have been reported to produce high velocity microflows when excited by ac signals, showing potential for micropumping applications. This paper investigates the microflow reversal phenomena in such orthogonal electrode micropumps. Three types of microflow fields were observed by changing the applied electric signals. Three ac electrokinetic processes, capacitive electrode p...

А theoretical model for calculating the motion dynamics of the particles of different light-scattering mechanisms in the energy inhomogeneous optical field is suggested. The direct relationship between the motion velocity of the tested particles in the created field and the degree of coherence of mutually orthogonal linearly polarized plane waves is demonstrated. The possibilities of using the ...
