In this paper, we reformulate Mean King’s problem using Shannon’s entropy as a first step of introducing quantum uncertainty relation with delayed classical information. As a result, we give informational and statistical meanings to the estimation on Mean King problem. As its application, we give an alternative proof of nonexistence of solutions of Mean King’s problem for qubit system without using entanglement.展开更多

The main goal of the article is to describe two modern scientific discoveries—New Geometric Theory of Phyl-lotaxis (Bodnar’s Geometry) and Hilbert’s Fourth Problem based on the Hyperbolic Fibonacci and Lucas Functions and “Golden” Fibonacci -Goniometry ( is a given positive real number). Although these discoveries refer to different areas of science (mathematics and theoretical botany), however they are based on one and the same scien-tific ideas—The “golden mean,” which had been introduced by Euclid in his Elements, and its generalization—The “metallic means,” which have been studied recently by Argentinian mathematician Vera Spinadel. The article is a confirmation of interdisciplinary character of the “Mathematics of Harmony”, which originates from Euclid’s Elements.展开更多

This procedure, which is based on a novel application of the involute profile, when applied to a circle of arbitrary radius (using only an unmarked ruler and a compass), produced a square equal in area to the given circle, which is 50 cm<sup>2</sup>. This result was a clear demonstration that not only is the construction valid for the squaring of a circle of any radius, but it is also capable of achieving absolute results (independent of the number pi (π), in a finite number of steps), when carried out with precision.展开更多

文摘In this survey article,we present two applications of surface curvatures in theoretical physics.The first application arises from biophysics in the study of the shape of cell vesicles involving the minimization of a mean curvature type energy called the Helfrich bending energy.In this formalism,the equilibrium shape of a cell vesicle may present itself in a rich variety of geometric and topological characteristics.We first show that there is an obstruction,arising from the spontaneous curvature,to the existence of a minimizer of the Helfrich energy over the set of embedded ring tori.We then propose a scale-invariant anisotropic bending energy,which extends the Canham energy,and show that it possesses a unique toroidal energy minimizer,up to rescaling,in all parameter regime.Furthermore,we establish some genus-dependent topological lower and upper bounds,which are known to be lacking with the Helfrich energy,for the proposed energy.We also present the shape equation in our context,which extends the Helfrich shape equation.The second application arises from astrophysics in the search for a mechanism for matter accretion in the early universe in the context of cosmic strings.In this formalism,gravitation may simply be stored over a two-surface so that the Einstein tensor is given in terms of the Gauss curvature of the surface which relates itself directly to the Hamiltonian energy density of the matter sector.This setting provides a lucid exhibition of the interplay of the underlying geometry,matter energy,and topological characterization of the system.In both areas of applications,we encounter highly challenging nonlinear partial differential equation problems.We demonstrate that studies on these equations help us to gain understanding of the theoretical physics problems considered.
