The Hatano-Nelson model is one of the most prototypical non-Hermitian models that exhibit intrinsic topological phases and concomitant skin effect. These unique phenomena originate from Galilean transformation. Here, we extend such an idea to a broader range systems based on imaginary boost deformation identify corresponding energy-twisted boundary conditions. This complexifies spectral paramet...

Correlation functions of one-unit spectral flowed states in string theory on AdS3 are considered. We present a formalism which allows to explicitly find the modified Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov and null vector equations to be satisfied by amplitudes of states in w = 1 sectors. We give a precise prescription to solve this system of linear differential equations in cases that are relevant to obtain th...

Analysing closed string tachyon condensation will improve our understanding of spacetime in string theory. We study the string spectrum on a BTZ black hole spacetime supported by NS-NS flux, which provides a calculable example where we would expect to find a quasi-localised tachyon. We find that there is a winding tachyon when the black hole horizon is smaller than the string scale, as expected...

The supersymmetry algebra for supermembranes, quantized in the light-cone gauge, exhibits central charges induced by wrapping the membrane around compact dimensions. These central charges are manifestly consistent with Lorentz symmetry. While the central charges raise the mass of the membrane states, they still leave the mass spectrum continuous, at least generically. The lower bound on the mas...

A model for the quantum effective description of the vacuum structure of thermalized SU(3) Yang-Mills theory is proposed. The model is based on Abelian projection leading to a Ginzburg-Landau theory for the magnetic sector. The possibility of topologically non-trivial, effective monopole fields in the deconfining phase is explored. These fields are assumed to be Bogomol’nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield s...

The selection of the winding material in power transformers is an important task, since it has significant impact on the transformer manufacturing cost. This winding material selection has to be checked in every transformer design, which means that for each design, there is a need to optimize the transformer twice and afterwards to select the most economical design. In this paper, an Artificial...

Abstract—This paper introduces a method for canceling the parasitic capacitance of integrated common mode (CM) filter by optimizing the layout of ground winding. Firstly, the CM filter with positive or negative coupling between the ground and inductor winding is researched, respectively. Then, the two coupling polarizes are combined to form the bi-directional coupling, simulation and measured r...

The relaxation dynamics of a polymer wound around a fixed obstacle constitutes a fundamental instance of polymer with twist and torque, and it is also of relevance for DNA denaturation dynamics. We investigate it by simulations and Langevin equation analysis. The latter predicts a relaxation time scaling as a power of the polymer length times a logarithmic correction related to the equilibrium ...

The accuracy class of an IVT – Inductive Voltage Transformer – is typically assessed in laboratory installations either by comparing with another IVT presenting greater accuracy and traceable to a national laboratory or by using a capacitive divider. Calibration in the field using internal parameters is considered herein, using results obtained from typical open and short circuit tests and wind...
