We present the first derivation of explicit analytic expressions for the environmental dependence of the sigma, pi, and delta bond integrals within the orthogonal two-center tight-binding approximation by using the recently developed bond-order potential theory to invert the nonorthogonality matrix. We illustrate the power of this new formalism by showing that it not only captures the transfera...

We review the derivation of a noncommutative version of the nonlinear sigma model on CP and it’s soliton solutions for finite θ emphasizing the similarities it bears to the GMS scalar field theory. It is also shown that unlike the scalar theory, some care needs to be taken in defining the topological charge of BPS solitons of the theory due to nonvanishing surface terms in the energy functional...

‎In this paper‎, ‎some properties of pre-monotone operators are proved‎. ‎It is shown that in a reflexive Banach space‎, ‎a full domain multivalued $sigma$-monotone operator with sequentially norm$times$weak$^*$ closed graph is norm$times$weak$^*$ upper semicontinuous‎. ‎The notion of $sigma$-convexity is introduced and the‎ ‎relations between the $sigma$-monotonicity and $sigma$-convexity is i...

six sigma methodology is one of the most famous effective problem solving approaches that helps organizations to achieve their goals. despite the variety of its positive advantage, most companies have failed to implement six sigma successfully. the reason for this includes lack of the organizations attention to success or failure factors when implement six sigma projects. hence, while performin...

We show that the four-dimensional U(1) gauge theory in the continuum formulation has a confining phase (exhibiting area law of the Wilson loop) in the strong coupling region above a critical coupling gc. This result is obtained by taking into account topological non-trivial sectors in U(1) gauge theory. The derivation is based on the reformulation of gauge theory as a deformation of a topologic...

We show that the eigenvalue density of a product X=X1X2...XM of M independent NxN Gaussian random matrices in the limit N-->infinity is rotationally symmetric in the complex plane and is given by a simple expression rho(z,z)=1/Mpisigma(-2/M)|z|(-2+(2/M)) for |z|sigma. The parameter sigma corresponds to the radius of the circular support and is related to the ampli...

After introducing double derivations of $n$-Lie algebra $L$ we‎ ‎describe the relationship between the algebra $mathcal D(L)$ of double derivations and the usual‎ ‎derivation Lie algebra $mathcal Der(L)$‎. ‎In particular‎, ‎we prove that the inner derivation algebra $ad(L)$‎ ‎is an ideal of the double derivation algebra $mathcal D(L)$; we also show that if $L$ is a perfect $n$-Lie algebra‎ ‎wit...

let $mathcal m$ be a factor von neumann algebra. it is shown that every nonlinear $*$-lie higher derivation$d={phi_{n}}_{ninmathbb{n}}$ on $mathcal m$ is additive. in particular, if $mathcal m$ is infinite type $i$factor, a concrete characterization of $d$ is given.

Let $mathfrak{A}$ be a Banach algebra. We say that a sequence ${D_n}_{n=0}^infty$ of continuous operators form $mathfrak{A}$ into $mathfrak{A}$ is a textit{local higher derivation} if to each $ainmathfrak{A}$ there corresponds a continuous higher derivation ${d_{a,n}}_{n=0}^infty$ such that $D_n(a)=d_{a,n}(a)$ for each non-negative integer $n$. We show that if $mathfrak{A}$ is a $C^*$-algebra t...

The Lie derivation of multivector fields along multivector fields has been introduced by Schouten (see cite{Sc, S}), and studdied for example in cite{M} and cite{I}. In the present paper we define the Lie derivation of differential forms along multivector fields, and we extend this concept to covariant derivation on tangent bundles and vector bundles, and find natural relations between them and...
