Abstract A world-volume model of a non-critical 3-brane is quantized in a strong coupling phase in which fluctuations of the conformal mode become dominant. This phase, called the conformal-mode dominant phase, is realized at very high energies far beyond the Planck mass scale. We separately treat the conformal mode and the traceless mode and quantize the conformal mode non-perturbatively, whil...

Conformal prediction is a learning framework that produces models that associate with each of their predictions a measure of statistically valid confidence. These models are typically constructed on top of traditional machine learning algorithms. An important result of conformal prediction theory is that the models produced are provably valid under relatively weak assumptions—in particular, the...

An extensive investigation of the format for head-up display (HUD) instrumentation was conducted in a two-part experiment. First, a pilot’s information requirements for the tasks of approach, landing, and taxi were determined through a survey administered to professional commercial pilots via the world wide web. The results of the survey were applied in the development of two symbology sets, on...

The isothermal oxidation resistance of Al0.2Co1.5CrFeNi1.5Ti0.3 high-entropy alloy is analyzed and the microstructural evolution of the oxide layer is studied. The limited aluminum, about 3.6 at %, leads to the non-continuous alumina. The present alloy is insufficient for severe circumstances only due to chromium oxide that is 10 μm after 1173 K for 360 h. Thus, the aluminized high-entropy allo...

We study the operadic and categorical formulations of (conformal) full field algebras. In particular, we show that a grading-restricted R × R-graded full field algebra is equivalent to an algebra over a partial operad constructed from spheres with punctures and local coordinates. This result is generalized to conformal full field algebras over V L ⊗ V R , where V L and V R are two vertex operat...
