Dielectric and electro-optical studies of a ferroelectric copolysiloxane.
1994
This paper reports an extensive study of the static (spontaneous polarization, ${\mathit{P}}_{\mathit{s}}$, tilt angle \ensuremath{\theta}, and pitch) and dynamic properties of a ferroelectric liquid-crystalline polymer. It is shown that a ferroelectric liquid-crystalline polymer (diluted polysiloxane) exhibits physical behavior similar to that of a low-molar-mass liquid crystal in terms of contrast ratio, pitch of the helix, and relationship between ${\mathit{P}}_{\mathit{s}}$ and \ensuremath{\theta}. The degenerated collective modes for the director rotation are shown to split into two modes at the Sm-A--Sm-${\mathit{C}}^{\mathrm{*}}$ phase transition temperature using dielectric spectros…
Analysis of the incoherent intermediate scattering function in the framework of the idealized mode-coupling theory: A Monte Carlo study for polymer m…
1994
In this Monte Carlo simulation, we calculate the incoherent intermediate scattering function ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\varphi}}}_{\mathit{q}}^{\mathit{s}}$(t) for a three-dimensional dense polymer melt after having made long relaxation runs in order to eliminate the history of the cooling procedure sufficiently. This function shows the signature of a two-step process in the temperature interval T\ensuremath{\in}[0.16,0.21] (the temperature is measured in units of an energy parameter introduced in the Hamiltonian of the model) whose time evolution was quantitatively analyzed in the framework of the idealized mode-coupling theory (MCT) within the \ensuremath{\beta}-relaxation regime. As a result…
The Wage Curve, Once More with Feeling: Bayesian Model Averaging of Heckit Models
2018
The sensitivity of the wage curve to sample-selection and model uncertainty was evaluated with Bayesian methods. More than 8000 Heckit wage curves were estimated using data from the 2017 household survey of Bolivia. After averaging the estimates with the posterior probability of each model being true, the wage curve elasticity in Bolivia is close to -0.01. This result suggests that in this country the wage curve is inelastic and does not follow the international statistical regularity of wage curves.
Homomorphisms between Algebras of Holomorphic Functions
2014
For two complex Banach spaces X and Y, in this paper, we study the generalized spectrum M-b(X,Y) of all nonzero algebra homomorphisms from H-b(X), the algebra of all bounded type entire functions on X into H-b(Y). We endow M-b(X,Y) with a structure of Riemann domain over L(X*,Y*) whenever.. is symmetrically regular. The size of the fibers is also studied. Following the philosophy of ( Aron et al., 1991), this is a step to study the set M-b,M-infinity (X,B-Y) of all nonzero algebra homomorphisms from Hb(b) (X) into H-infinity (B-Y) of bounded holomorphic functions on the open unit ball of Y and M-infinity(B-X,B-Y) of all nonzero algebra homomorphisms from H-infinity(B-X) into H infinity (B-Y…
An analytical study of the ageostrophic motion of an air parcel
1978
The complete ageostrophic motion of an individual air parcel is discussed. It is shown that the general velocity solution of the equation describing this motion may be expressed in terms of the well-known series approximation of Philipps and a rest term; this term describes the inertial motion of the air parcel about a given initial state.
‘‘Improved’’ lattice study of semileptonic decays ofDmesons
1995
We present results of a lattice computation of the matrix elements of the vector and axial-vector currents which are relevant for the semi-leptonic decays $D \rightarrow K$ and $D \rightarrow K^*$. The computations are performed in the quenched approximation to lattice QCD on a $24^3 \times 48$ lattice at $\beta=6.2$, using an $O(a)$-improved fermionic action. In the limit of zero lepton masses the semi-leptonic decays $D \rightarrow K$ and $D \rightarrow K^*$ are described by four form factors: $f^{+}_K,V,A_1$ and $A_2$, which are functions of $q^2$, where $q^{\mu}$ is the four-momentum transferred in the process. Our results for these form factors at $q^2=0$ are: $f^+_K(0)=0.67 \er{7}{8}$…
The Isgur-Wise function from the lattice
1995
We calculate the Isgur-Wise function by measuring the elastic scattering amplitude of a $D$ meson in the quenched approximation on a $24^3\times48$ lattice at $\beta=6.2$, using an $O(a)$-improved fermion action. Fitting the resulting chirally-extrapolated Isgur-Wise function to Stech's relativistic-oscillator parametrization, we obtain a slope parameter $\rho^2=1.2+7-3. We then use this result, in conjunction with heavy-quark symmetry, to extract $V_{cb}$\ from the experimentally measured $\bar B\to D^*l\bar\nu\,$\ differential decay width. We find $|V_{cb}|\sqrt{\tau_B/1.48{\mathrm ps}}= 0.038 +2-2 +8-3, where the first set of errors is due to experimental uncertainties, while the second …
Design-based estimation for geometric quantiles with application to outlier detection
2010
Geometric quantiles are investigated using data collected from a complex survey. Geometric quantiles are an extension of univariate quantiles in a multivariate set-up that uses the geometry of multivariate data clouds. A very important application of geometric quantiles is the detection of outliers in multivariate data by means of quantile contours. A design-based estimator of geometric quantiles is constructed and used to compute quantile contours in order to detect outliers in both multivariate data and survey sampling set-ups. An algorithm for computing geometric quantile estimates is also developed. Under broad assumptions, the asymptotic variance of the quantile estimator is derived an…
