We report low-temperature magnetoresistance (MR) measurements on rings of single-wall carbon nanotubes. Negative MR characteristic of weak one-dimensional localization is clearly observed from 3.0 to 60 K, and the coherence length L(varphi) is obtained as a function of temperature. The dominant dephasing mechanism is identified as electron-electron scattering. Below 1 K, we observe a transition...

A numerical and analytical study of the role of exponentially truncated Lévy flights in the superdiffusive propagation of fronts in reaction-diffusion systems is presented. The study is based on a variation of the Fisher-Kolmogorov equation where the diffusion operator is replaced by a lambda -truncated fractional derivative of order alpha , where 1lambda is the characteristic truncation length...

For a fixed nonnegative integer $m$, an analytic map $\varphi$ and function $\psi$, the generalized integration operator $I^{(m)}_{\varphi,\psi}$ is defined by \[ I^{(m)}_{\varphi,\psi} f(z) = \int_0^z f^{(m)}(\varphi(\zeta)) \psi(\zeta) \, d\zeta \] for $X$-valued $f$, where $X$ Banach space. Some estimates norm of $I^{(m)}_{\varphi,\psi} \colon wA^p_{\alpha}(X) \to A^p_{\alpha}(X)$ are obtain...

Abstract Let $\varphi _1,\ldots ,\varphi _r\in {\mathbb Z}[z_1,\ldots z_k]$ be integral linear combinations of elementary symmetric polynomials with $\text {deg}(\varphi _j)=k_j\ (1\le j\le r)$ , where $1\le k_1<k_2<\cdots <k_r=k$ . Subject to the condition $k_1+\cdots +k_r\ge \tfrac {1}{2}k(k-~1)+2$ we show that there is a paucity nondiagonal solutions Diophantine system _j({\mathbf x...

Recently, Zhang and Song [Q. Zhang, Y. Song, Fixed point theory forgeneralized $varphi$-weak contractions,Appl. Math. Lett. 22(2009) 75-78] proved a common fixed point theorem for two mapssatisfying generalized $varphi$-weak contractions. In this paper, we prove a common fixed point theorem fora family of compatible maps. In fact, a new generalization of Zhangand Song's theorem is given.

While most approaches in formal methods address system correctness, ensuring robustness has remained a challenge. In this paper we present and study the logic rLTL which provides means to formally reason about both correctness design. Furthermore, identify large fragment of for verification problem can be efficiently solved, i.e., done by using an automaton, recognizing behaviors described form...

For a convex body $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, we introduce and study the extremal general affine surface areas, defined by \[ {\rm IS}_{\varphi}(K):=\sup_{K^\prime\subset K}{\rm as}_{\varphi}(K),\quad os}_{\psi}(K):=\inf_{K^\prime\supset as}_{\psi}(K) \] where ${\rm as}_{\varphi}(K)$ as}_{\psi}(K)$ are $L_\varphi$ $L_\psi$ area of $K$, respectively. We prove that there exist bodies achieve supremum ...
