It has been shown recently by Kapustin and Tomasiello that the mathematical notion of Hamiltonian actions on twisted generalized Kähler manifolds is in perfect agreement with the physical notion of general (2, 2) gauged sigma models with three-form fluxes. In this article, we study the twisted equivariant cohomology theory of Hamiltonian actions on H-twisted generalized complex manifolds. If th...

wall displacements and ground pressure acting on the lining of a tunnel increase with time. these time-dependent deformations are both due to face advance effect and to the time-dependent behavior of the rock mass.  viscoelastic materials exhibit both viscous and elastic behaviors. thorough this study, the effect of different linear viscoelastic models including maxwell, kelvin and kelvin-voigt...

We use the formalism of generalized geometry to study the generic supersymmetric AdS5 solutions of type IIB supergravity that are dual to N = 1 superconformal field theories (SCFTs) in d = 4. Such solutions have an associated six-dimensional generalized complex cone geometry that is an extension of Calabi-Yau cone geometry. We identify generalized vector fields dual to the dilatation and R-symm...

We review the localization formula due to Berline-Vergne and Atiyah-Bott, with applications to the exact stationary phase phenomenon discovered by Duistermaat-Heckman. We explain the Weil model of equivariant cohomology and recall its relation to BRST. We show how to quantize the Weil model, and obtain new localization formulas which, in particular, apply to Hamiltonian spaces with group valued...

Human capital production in the U.S. economy is no longer what it used to be. Graduation rates for high school and college have fallen (Card and Lemieux 2001; Heckman and Lafontaine 2007). As a result, the rate of growth of the stock of human capital has slowed considerably (Goldin and Katz 2008). At the same time, other countries are improving their educational attainment. Although the United ...

T he paper uses Heckman model to examine the statistical importance of over 140 independent variables on the Olympic performance of all countries participating in the Summer Olympic Games from Sydney 2000 to Rio 2016. We find that countries which export more products have a higher likelihood of winning an Olympic medal than their counterparts exporting fewer products, and explain why...

Heckman-Opdam system of differential equations is holonomic , with regular singularities and has locally |W |-dimensional space of solutions ( cf. corollary 3.9 of [12]), where |W | is the cardinality of the Weyl group W . The system is a generalization of radial parts of Laplace-Casimir operators on symmetric Riemannian spaces of nonpositive curvature and is isomorphic to Calogero-Sutherland m...
