Two-dimensional Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten theory is extended to three dimensions, where it becomes a scalar gauge theory of the singleton type. The three-dimensional formulation involves a scalar field valued in a compact group G, a Nakanishi-Lautrup field valued in Lie (G) and Faddeev-Popov ghosts. The physical sector, characterized by the vanishing of the Nakanishi-Lautrup field, coincides with the WZNW theory of the group G. Three-dimensional space-time structure involves a generalized metric, but only its boundary values are of consequence. An alternative formulation in terms of left and right movers (in three dimensions!) is also possible.

We analyze the phase structure of the CPn−1 model in three-dimensional space–time coupled to fermions, paying special attention to the role played by the Chern–Simons term generated by the fermions. A rich phase structure arises from the large-n expansion.

The author's population density index ( PDI) model is extended to three-dimensional distributions. A derived formula is presented that allows for the calculation of the lower and upper bounds of density in three-dimensional space for any finite lattice.


There exists in space of four dimensions an interesting figure of 15 lines and 15 points, first considered by Stéphanos (‘Compt. Rendus,’ vol. 93, 1881), though suggested very clearly by Cremona’s discussion of cubic surfaces in three-dimensional space. In connection with the figure of 15 lines there arises a quartic surface, the intersection of two quadrics, which is of importance as giving rise by projection to the Cyclides, as Segre has shown in detail (‘Math. Ann.,’ vol. 24, 1884). The symmetry of the figure suggests, howrever, the consideration of 15 such quartic surfaces; and it is natural to inquire as to the mutual relations of these surfaces, in particular as to their intersections. In general, two surfaces in space of four dimensions meet in a finite number of points. It appears that in this case any two of these 15 surfaces have a curve in common; it is the purpose of the present note to determine the complete intersection of any two of these 15 surfaces. Similar results may be obtained for a system of cubic surfaces in three dimensions, corresponding to those here given for this system of quartic surfaces in four dimensions, since the surfaces have one point in common, which may be taken as the centre of a projection.

In order to raise computation speed on the premise of enough numerical accuracy, the Predictor-Corrector Improved Quasi-Static (PC-IQS) method and Nodal Green’s Function Method (NGFM) were combined to solve the three-dimensional space-time neutron diffusion kinetics problems for Cartesian geometry. In addition, the improved quasi-static method and the Krylov algorithm were applied to solve the three-dimensional space-time neutron diffusion kinetics problems for cylindrical geometry. Based on the proposed model, the program of three-dimensional neutron space-time kinetic code has been tested by the two-dimensional and three-dimensional transient numerical benchmarks. The numerical results obtained by this work were in good agreement with the reference solutions.
