A Modification of Gustavsen and Semlyen’s vector fitting algorithm for overestimated model order

Gustavsen and Semlyen’s vector fitting algorithm (VFA) is popular for the determination of the poles and residues of a sampled response function, modeled as a finite order rational function. However, it does not always perform well when the original function is of infinite order and/or the model order is overestimated. This article is concerned with a novel “null-space” modification of the VFA that provides an accurate representation of the original function when the model order is large and when the original VFA performs poorly. The null-space method is parameterized by a single control parameter, L, which can be adjusted to improve accuracy. Comparisons are made with the original VFA and another of Gustavsen’s modifications

Swanson hamiltonian: non-PT-symmetry phase

In this work, we study the non-hermitian Swanson hamiltonian, particularly the non-PT symmetry phase. We use the formalism of Gel’fand triplet to construct the generalized eigenfunctions and the corresponding spectrum. Depending on the region of the parameter model space, we show that the Swanson hamiltonian represents different physical systems, i.e. parabolic barrier, negative mass oscillators. We also discussed the presence of Exceptional Points of infinite order.

Cusp cobordism group of Morse functions

By a Morse function on a compact manifold with boundary we mean a real-valued function without critical points near the boundary such that its critical points as well as the critical points of its restriction to the boundary are all nondegenerate. For such Morse functions, Saeki and Yamamoto have previously defined a certain notion of cusp cobordism, and computed the unoriented cusp cobordism group of Morse functions on surfaces. In this paper, we compute unoriented and oriented cusp cobordism groups of Morse functions on manifolds of any dimension by employing Levine’s cusp elimination technique as well as the complementary process of creating pairs of cusps along fold lines. We show that both groups are cyclic of order two in even dimensions, and cyclic of infinite order in odd dimensions. For Morse functions on surfaces our result yields an explicit description of Saeki–Yamamoto’s cobordism invariant which they constructed by means of the cohomology of the universal complex of singular fibers.

On the nonexistence conditions of solution of two-point in time problem for nonhomogeneous PDE

We investigate the problem with local homogeneous two-point conditions with respect to time for nonhomogeneous PDE of second order in time variable and generally infinite order in spatial variables in the case when the characteristic determinant of the problem identically equals zero. We establish the nonexistence conditions of solution of this problem in the class of entire functions.

Resolved fine and hyperfine state-to-state rate coefficients for the rotational transitions of C3N induced by collision with He

The fine and hyperfine resolved state-to-state rate coefficients for the rotational (de)excitation of C3N by collision with helium are computed. To this aim a two dimensional potential energy surface is calculated for this system. The recoupling method is used to obtain the fine and hyperfine structure resolved rate coefficients from spin-free Close Coupling calculations. These results are compared with those given by the Infinite Order Sudden Approximation and the M-randomizing Limit. General propensity rules for the transitions are also found and analyzed.

Effective Kummer Theory for Elliptic Curves

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $K$, let $\alpha \in E(K)$ be a point of infinite order, and let $N^{-1}\alpha $ be the set of $N$-division points of $\alpha $ in $E(\overline {K})$. We prove strong effective and uniform results for the degrees of the Kummer extensions $[K(E[N],N^{-1}\alpha ): K(E[N])]$. When $K=\mathbb Q$, and under a minimal (necessary) assumption on $\alpha $, we show that the inequality $[\mathbb Q(E[N],N^{-1}\alpha ): \mathbb Q(E[N])] \geq cN^2$ holds for a positive constant $c$ independent of both $E$ and $\alpha $.

Holomorphic functions, relativistic sum, Blaschke products and superoscillations

Superoscillating functions are band-limited functions that can oscillate faster than their fastest Fourier component. The notion of superoscillation is a particular case of that one of supershift. In the recent years, superoscillating functions, that appear for example in weak values in quantum mechanics, have become an interesting and independent field of research in complex analysis and in the theory of infinite order differential operators. The aim of this paper is to study some infinite order differential operators acting on entire functions which naturally arise in the study of superoscillating functions. Such operators are of particular interest because they are associated with the relativistic sum of the velocities and with the Blaschke products. To show that some sequences of functions preserve the superoscillatory behavior it is of crucial importance to prove that their associated infinite order differential operators act continuously on some spaces of entire functions with growth conditions.
