Abstract We apply the optimized perturbation theory (OPT) to resum the perturbative series describing the mass gap of the bidimensional ϕ4 theory in the ℤ2 symmetric phase. Already at NLO (one loop) the method is capable of generating a quite reasonable non-perturbative result for the critical coupling. At order-g7 we obtain gc = 2.779(25) which compares very well with the state of the art N8LO result, gc = 2.807(34). As a novelty we investigate the supercritical region showing that it contains some useful complimentary information that can be used in extrapolations to arbitrarily high orders.

Abstract We study the model of four-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Λ theory minimally coupled to a massive charged self-interacting scalar field, parameterized by the quartic and hexic couplings, labelled by λ and β, respectively. In the absence of scalar field, there is a class of counterexamples to cosmic censorship. Moreover, we investigate the full nonlinear solution with nonzero scalar field included, and argue that these counterexamples can be removed by assuming charged self-interacting scalar field with sufficiently large charge not lower than a certain bound. In particular, this bound on charge required to preserve cosmic censorship is no longer precisely the weak gravity bound for the free scalar theory. For the quartic coupling, for λ < 0 the bound is below the one for the free scalar fields, whereas for λ > 0 it is above. Meanwhile, for the hexic coupling the bound is always above the one for the free scalar fields, irrespective of the sign of β.

The calculation of the symmetry factor corresponding to a given Feynman diagram is well known to be a tedious problem. We have derived a simple formula for these symmetry factors. Our formula works for any diagram in scalar theory (ϕ3 and ϕ4 interactions), spinor QED, scalar QED, or QCD. PACS Nos.: 11.10-z, 11.15-q, 11.15Bt

Abstract The telicity behavior of degree achievements has been a puzzling problem to many linguists. The most successful and currently standard theory (Kennedy & Levin 2008) treats them as degree expressions lexicalizing different types of scales, which in turn influence the resulting evaluative or non-evaluative interpretation. While it may account for English, this theory does not hold up cross-linguistically. We challenge the scalar theory with new Slavic data and show that verbal prefixes influence the (non-)evaluative interpretation of degree achievements more than their underlying scales do. This proposal is formalised as an addition of two type shifters, morphosyntactically realised as prefixes, which, in result, have an evaluative/non-evaluative effect on the given degree achievement.

Reaction in a scalar mixing layer in grid-generated turbulence is studied experimentally by doping half of the flow with nitric oxide and the other half with ozone. The flow conditions and concentrations are such that the chemical reaction is passive and the flow and chemical timescales are of the same order. Conserved scalar theory for such flows is outlined and further developed; it is used as a basis for presentation of the experimental results. Continuous measurements of concentration are limited in their spatial and temporal resolution but capture sufficient of their spectra for adequate second-order correlations to be made. Two components of velocity have been measured simultaneously with hot-wire anemometry. Conserved scalar mixing results, deduced from reacting and non-reacting measurements of concentration, show the independence of concentration level and concentration ratio expected for passive reacting flow. The results are subject to several limitations due to the necessary experimental compromises, but they agree generally with measurements made in thermal mixing layers. Reactive scalar statistics are consistent with the realizability constraints obtainable from conserved scalar theory where such constraints apply, and otherwise are generally found to lie between the conserved scalar theory limits for frozen and very fast chemistry. It is suggested that Toor's (1969) closure for the mean chemical reaction rate could be improved by interpolating between the frozen and equilibrium values for the covariance. The turbulent fluxes of the reactive scalars are found to approximately obey the gradient model but the value of the diffusivity is found to depend on the Damköhler number.
