Pb alloying in InTe leads to decreased hole concentration and lattice thermal conductivity, hence, higher thermoelectric performance.

The concept of an $L$-bornology is introduced and the theory of $L$-bornological spacesis being developed. In particular the lattice of all $L$-bornologies on a given set is studied and basic properties ofthe category of $L$-bornological spaces and bounded mappings are investigated.

This work is towards the study of the relationship between fuzzy preordered sets and Alexandrov (left/right) fuzzy topologies based on generalized residuated lattices here the fuzzy sets are equipped with generalized residuated lattice in which the commutative property doesn't hold. Further, the obtained results are used in the study of fuzzy automata theory.

Perturbation theory (PT) appears in many important theoretical and practical roles in lattice field theory. Conceptual issues related to the continuum limit can be studied in a perturbative framework, such as the renormalizability of lattice gauge theories [1]. Perturbative calculations are used in relating lattice quantities to those defined in continuum schemes and in constructing Symanzik-im...

Motivated by the possibility of creating non-Abelian fields using cold atoms in optical lattices, we explore the richness and complexity of noninteracting two-dimensional electron gases 2DEGs in a lattice, subjected to such fields. In the continuum limit, a non-Abelian system characterized by a two-component “magnetic flux” describes a harmonic oscillator existing in two different charge states...

We present a theoretical analysis of the band-edge exciton structure in nanometer-size crystallites of direct semiconductors with a cubic lattice structure or a hexagonal lattice structure which can be described within the framework of a quasicubic model. The lowest energy exciton, eightfold degenerate in spherically symmetric dots, is split into five levels by the crystal shape asymmetry, the ...

Supercomputers have recently become a crucial tool for the quantum field the-orist. Applied to the formalism of lattice gauge theory, numerical simulations are providing fundamental quantitative information about the interactions of quarks, the fundamental constituents of those particles which experience nuclear interactions. Perhaps most strikingly, these simulations have provided convincing e...

A lattice is defined as an algebra on a nonempty set with binary operations join and meet which are commutative and associative, and satisfy the absorption identities. The following kinds of lattices are considered: distributive, modular, bounded (with zero and unit elements), complemented, and Boolean (with complement). The article includes also theorems which immediately follow from definitions.
