We investigate the magnetoelectric (or inverse spin-galvanic) effect in the two dimensional electron gases with both Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling using an exact solution of the Boltzmann equation for electron spin and momentum. The spin response to an in-plane electric field turns out to be highly anisotropic while the usual charge conductivity remains isotropic, contrary to earli...

This study examined if the size of the McGurk effect depends on the size of stimulus set presented in a block. The auditory syllables used in the present experiment was dubbed with either a compatible visible syllable or a discrepant visible syllable about place of articu-lation, resulting in 16 audiovisual stimuli. In the small set condition, two auditory consonants, {/pa/ and /ta/ } in one ca...

We analyze the Landau problem and quantum Hall effect on S 3 taking a constant background field proportional to the spin connection on S 3. The effective strength of the field can be tuned by changing the dimension of the representation to which the fermions belong. The effective action for the edge excitations of a quantum Hall droplet in the limit of a large number of fermions is obtained. We...

We characterise the subgame perfect equilibrium of a di¤erential market game with hyperbolic inverse demand where …rms are quantity-setters and accumulate capacity over time à la Ramsey. The related Hamilton-JacobiBellman are solved in closed form both on in…nite and on …nite horizon setups and the optimal strategies are determined. Then, we analyse the feasibility of horizontal mergers in both...

I elaborate on the earlier suggestion that the model describing the plateaux transition in Integer Quantum Hall effect scales to a particular point on the line of critical points of a theory with a higher symmetry.

We show how to calculate the encountered wave period distribution for a ship traveling with constant speed on a Gaussian random sea with a directionally distributed frequency spectrum.  1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

The Hall conductivity in the magnetic-field-induced spin-density-wave (FISDW) state of the quasi-onedimensional organic conductors (TMTSF)2X at a finite temperature is calculated. The temperature dependence of the Hall conductivity is found to be the same as the temperature dependence of the Fröhlich current of a regular charge/spin-density wave. Predicted dependence σxy(T ) can be verified exp...
