Orthonormality of Volkov Solutions and the Suffcient Condition

We present a simple demonstration on the orthonormality of Volkov solutions with emphasizing on the suffcient condition to the orthonormality. Properly aligning the external electromagnetic wave along the third-axis, the Volkov solutions are eigenfunctions of the hermitian momentum ■1, ■2 and the light-cone hamiltonian operators with real eigenvalues, which can lead to a verification of the orthonormality in the context of quantum mechanics when the x3-integration of the external potential is not singularity as severe as δ(0). The hermiticity of the fermion field fourmomentum operators validates the application of the demonstration to the intense field quantum electrodynamic. The proof based on a direct calculation to the inner products of the solutions is recapitulated as well in a general manner without dependence on explicit representation of the Dirac matrices and spinors, which can be conducive to understand the suffcient condition and to the study of the polarized electron production where a convenient representation is selected elaborately to project out the spin-polarization.

Lyapunov exponent calculation of a two-degree-of-freedom vibro-impact system with symmetrical rigid stops

A two-degree-of-freedom vibro-impact system having symmetrical rigid stops and subjected to periodic excitation is investigated in this paper. By introducing local maps between different stages of motion in the whole impact process, the Poincare map of the system is constructed. Using the Poincare map and the Gram Schmidt orthonormalization, a method of calculating the spectrum of Lyapunov exponents of the above vibro-impact system is presented. Then the phase portraits of periodic and chaotic attractors for the system and the corresponding convergence diagrams of the spectrum of Lyapunov exponents are given out through the numerical simulations. To further identify the validity of the aforementioned computation method, the bifurcation diagram of the system with respect to the bifurcation parameter and the corresponding largest Lyapunov exponents are shown.

Comparative Analysis of Quantum based Receivers with Linear and Nonlinear Adaptive Receivers

In this paper,we propose a new linear multiuser receiver for synchronous code-division multiple-access (CDMA) systems,referred to as the orthogonal multiuser(OMU) receiver.Unlike the linear minimum mean-squared error(MMSE) receiver,the OMU receiver depends only on the signature vectors and does not require knowledge of the received amplitudes or the channel signal-to-noise ratio(SNR).Here we develop methods that construct an optimal set of vectors with a specified inner product structure,from a given set of vectors in a complex Hilbert space.The optimal vectors are chosen to minimize the sum of the squared norms of the errors between the constructed vectors and the given vectors.An algorithm has been developed using the principles of quantum parameters and some of its axioms and constraints.In place of the classical matched filter(MF) receiver we propose a modified receiver.This approach assumes that improving the accuracy will necessarily result in im- proved performance.The simulation results provided here suggests that in certain cases the OMU and POMU receivers can significantly increase the probability of correct detection with low error rate over the MF receiver.

Inversion Method for Sound Velocity Profile of Eddy in Deep Ocean

The modal wave number tomography approach is used to obtain sound speed profile of water column in deep ocean. The approach consists of estimation of the local modal eigenvalues from complex pressure field and use of these data as input to modal perturbative inversion method for obtaining the local sound speed profile. The empirical orthonormal function (EOF) is applied to reduce the parameter search space. The ocean environment used for numerical simulations includes the Munk profile as the unperturbed background speed profile and a weak Gaussian eddy as the sound speed profile perturbation. The results of numerical simulations show the method is capable of monitoring the oceanic interior structure.

What can routh table offer in addition to stability?

Routh stability test is covered in almost all undergraduate control texts. It determines the stability or, a little beyond, the number of unstable roots of a polynomial in terms of the signs of certain entries of the Routh table constructed from the coefficients of the polynomial. The use of the Routh table, as far as the common textbooks show, is only limited to this function. We will show that the Routh table can actually be used to construct an orthonormal basis in the space of strictly proper rational functions with a common stable denominator. This orthonormal basis can then be used for many other purposes, including the computation of the H2 norm, the Hankel singular values and singular vectors, model reduction, H∞ optimization, etc. Keywords Routh stablity criterion - Orthonormal basis - Root-mean-squared value - Hankel operater - Nehari problem - Model reduction This work was supported by the Hong Kong Research Grants Council.

Kautz Function Based Continuous-Time Model Predictive Controller for Load Frequency Control in a Multi-Area Power System

A continuous-time Model Predictive Controller was proposed using Kautz function in order to improve the performance of Load Frequency Control(LFC).A dynamic model of an interconnected power system was used for Model Predictive Controller(MPC)design.MPC predicts the future trajectory of the dynamic model by calculating the optimal closed loop feedback gain matrix.In this paper,the optimal closed loop feedback gain matrix was calculated using Kautz function.Being an Orthonormal Basis Function(OBF),Kautz function has an advantage of solving complex pole-based nonlinear system.Genetic Algorithm(GA)was applied to optimally tune the Kautz function-based MPC.A constraint based on phase plane analysis was implemented with the cost function in order to improve the robustness of the Kautz function-based MPC.The proposed method was simulated with three area interconnected power system and the efficiency of the proposed method was measured and exhibited by comparing with conventional Proportional and Integral(PI)controller and Linear Quadratic Regulation(LQR).

Three Levels of Tensor Theory

There are many forms of tensor theory which are quite different. Discussions are put forward and their relationships are found. The differences between them depend on whether there is metric on the space and the basis is orthonormal.

A Modified Homotopy Analysis Method for Solving Boundary Layer Equations

A new modification of the Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM) is presented for highly nonlinear ODEs on a semi-infinite domain. The main advantage of the modified HAM is that the number of terms in the series solution can be greatly reduced;meanwhile the accuracy of the solution can be well retained. In this way, much less CPU is needed. Two typical examples are used to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed approach.

Construction of nonseparable orthonormal compactly supported wavelet bases for L^2(R^d)

Suppose M and N are two r×r and s×s dilation matrices,respectively.LetΓM andΓN represent the complete sets of representatives of distinct cosets of the quotient groups M-T Zr/Zr and N-T Zs/Zs,respectively.Two methods for constructing nonseparable Ω-filter banks from M-filter banks and N-filter banks are presented,where Ω is a（r＋s） ×（r＋s） dilation matrix such that one of its complete sets of representatives of distinct cosets of the quotient groups Ω-T Zr＋s/Zr＋s areΓΩ={[γT h,ζ T q] T：γh∈ΓM,ζq∈ΓN}.Specially,Ω can be [MΘ0N],whereΘis a r×s integer matrix with M-1Θbeing also an integer matrix.Moreover,if the constructed filter bank satisfies Lawton＇s condition,which can be easy to verify,then it generates an orthonormal nonseparable Ω-wavelet basis for L2（Rr＋s）.Properties,including Lawton＇s condition,vanishing moments and regularity of the new Ω-filter banks or new Ω-wavelet basis are discussed then.Finally,a class of nonseparable Ω-wavelet basis for L2（Rr＋1） are constructed and three other examples are given to illustrate the results.In particular,when M=N=2,all results obtained in this paper appeared in[1].

An SAV Method for Imaginary Time Gradient Flow Model in Density Functional Theory

In this paper,based on the imaginary time gradient flow model in the density functional theory,a scalar auxiliary variable(SAV)method is developed for the ground state calculation of a given electronic structure system.To handle the orthonormality constraint on those wave functions,two kinds of penalty terms are introduced in designing the modified energy functional in SAV,i.e.,one for the norm preserving of each wave function,another for the orthogonality between each pair of different wave functions.A numerical method consisting of a designed scheme and a linear finite element method is used for the discretization.Theoretically,the desired unconditional decay of modified energy can be obtained from our method,while computationally,both the original energy and modified energy decay behaviors can be observed successfully from a number of numerical experiments.More importantly,numerical results show that the orthonormality among those wave functions can be automatically preserved,without explicitly preserving orthogonalization operations.This implies the potential of our method in large-scale simulations in density functional theory.

On IGMRES: An incomplete generalized minimal residual method for large unsymmetric linear systems

The truncated version of the generalized minimal residual method (GMRES), the incomplete generalized minimal residual method (IGMRES), is studied. It is based on an incomplete orthogonalization of the Krylov vectors in question, and gives an approximate or quasi_minimum residual solution over the Krylov subspace. A convergence analysis of this method is given, showing that in the non_restarted version IGMRES can behave like GMRES once the basis vectors of Krylov subspace generated by the incomplete orthogonalization are strongly linearly independent. Meanwhile, some relationships between the residual norms for IOM and IGMRES are established. Numerical experiments are reported to show convergence behavior of IGMRES and of its restarted version IGMRES( m ).

Stable direction recovery in single-index models with a diverging number of predictors

Large dimensional predictors are often introduced in regressions to attenuate the possible modeling bias. We consider the stable direction recovery in single-index models in which we solely assume the response Y is independent of the diverging dimensional predictors X when βτ 0 X is given, where β 0 is a p n × 1 vector, and p n →∞ as the sample size n →∞. We first explore sufficient conditions under which the least squares estimation β n0 recovers the direction β 0 consistently even when p n = o(√ n). To enhance the model interpretability by excluding irrelevant predictors in regressions, we suggest an e1-regularization algorithm with a quadratic constraint on magnitude of least squares residuals to search for a sparse estimation of β 0 . Not only can the solution β n of e1-regularization recover β 0 consistently, it also produces sufficiently sparse estimators which enable us to select "important" predictors to facilitate the model interpretation while maintaining the prediction accuracy. Further analysis by simulations and an application to the car price data suggest that our proposed estimation procedures have good finite-sample performance and are computationally efficient.

A CHARACTERIZATION OF N-DIMENSIONAL DAUBECHIES TYPE TENSOR PRODUCT WAVELET

In this paper, we consider the problem of the existence of general non-separable variate orthonormal compactly supported wavelet basis when the symbol function has a special form. We prove that the general non-separable variate orthonormal wavelet basis doesn't exist if the symbol function possesses a certain form. This helps us to explicate the difficulty of constructing the non-separable variate wavlet basis and to hint how to construct non-separable variate wavlet basis.

Constructing super Gabor frames:the rational time-frequency lattice case

For a time-frequency lattice Λ = A Z d × B Z d , it is known that an orthonormal super Gabor frame of length L exists with respect to this lattice if and only if |det( AB) | = 1 L . The proof of this result involves various techniques from multi-lattice tiling and operator algebra theory, and it is far from constructive. In this paper we present a very general scheme for constructing super Gabor frames for the rational lattice case. Our method is based on partitioning an arbitrary fundamental domain of the lattice in the frequency domain such that each subset in the partition tiles R d by the lattice in the time domain. This approach not only provides us a simple algorithm of constructing various kinds of orthonormal super Gabor frames with flexible length and multiplicity, but also allows us to construct super Gabor (non-Riesz) frames with high order smoothness and regularity. Several examples are also presented.
