Conformal Field Theory Approach to Quantum Impurity Problems
A brief review is given of a new method for studying the critical behavior of quantum impurity problems, based on conformal field theory techniques, which I developed with Andreas Ludwig. Some results on the overscreened Kondo problem are reviewed. It is shown that the simple open and periodic fixed points, which occur...

The Nonlinear Evolution of Rare Events
In this paper I consider the nonlinear evolution of a rare density fluctuation in a random density field with Gaussian fluctuations, and I rigorously show that it follows the spherical collapse dynamics applied to its mean initial profile. This result is valid for any cosmological model and is independent of the shape ...

Amplitude of Primeval Fluctuations from Cosmological Mass Density Reconstructions
We use the POTENT reconstruction of the mass density field in the nearby universe to estimate the amplitude of the density fluctuation power spectrum for various cosmological models. We find sigma_8\Omega_m^{0.6}= 1.3^{+0.4}_{-0.3}, almost independently of the power spectrum. This value agrees well with the COBE normal...

Intention-based Segmentation: Human Reliability and Correlation with Linguistic Cues
Certain spans of utterances in a discourse, referred to here as segments, are widely assumed to form coherent units. Further, the segmental structure of discourse has been claimed to constrain and be constrained by many phenomena. However, there is weak consensus on the nature of segments and the criteria for recognizi...

Precise n-gram Probabilities from Stochastic Context-free Grammars

Non-Linear Cluster Lens Reconstruction
We develop a method for general non-linear cluster lens reconstruction using the observable distortion of background galaxies. The distortion measures the combination $\gamma/(1-\kappa)$ of shear $\gamma$ and surface density $\kappa$. From this we obtain an expression for the gradient of $\log (1 - \kappa)$ in terms of...

On the logical strength of Nash-Williams' theorem on transfinite sequences
We show that Nash-Williams' theorem asserting that the countable transfinite sequences of elements of a better-quasi-ordering ordered by embeddability form a better-quasi-ordering is provable in the subsystem of second order arithmetic Pi^1_1-CA_0 but is not equivalent to Pi^1_1-CA_0. We obtain some partial results tow...

A Probabilistic Model of Compound Nouns
Compound nouns such as example noun compound are becoming more common in natural language and pose a number of difficult problems for NLP systems, notably increasing the complexity of parsing. In this paper we develop a probabilistic model for syntactically analysing such compounds. The model predicts compound noun str...

Dumb Holes and the Effects of High Frequencies on Black Hole Evaporation
The naive calculation of black hole evaporation makes the thermal emission depend on the arbitrary high frequency behaviour of the theory where the theory is certainly wrong. Using the sonic analog to black holes-- dumb holes-- I show numerically that a change in the dispersion relation at high frequencies does not see...

Impurity scattering and transport of fractional Quantum Hall edge state
We study the effects of impurity scattering on the low energy edge state dynamic s for a broad class of quantum Hall fluids at filling factor $\nu =n/(np+1)$, for integer $n$ and even integer $p$. When $p$ is positive all $n$ of the edge modes are expected to move in the same direction, whereas for negative $p$ one mod...

Open Charm as a Probe of Pre-Equilibrium Dynamics in Nuclear Collisions?
The pre-equilibrium contribution to open charm production in nuclear collisions at $\sqrt{s}=200$ AGeV is calculated using three different models for the correlations between momentum and space-time coordinates. Ideal (Bjorken) correlation between the rapidity $y$ and space-time rapidity $\eta$ of mini-jet gluons suppr...

Inducing Probabilistic Grammars by Bayesian Model Merging
We describe a framework for inducing probabilistic grammars from corpora of positive samples. First, samples are {\em incorporated} by adding ad-hoc rules to a working grammar; subsequently, elements of the model (such as states or nonterminals) are {\em merged} to achieve generalization and a more compact representati...

Generalized Hybrid Monte-Carlo
We propose a modification of the Hybrid Monte-Carlo method to sample equilibrium distributions of continuous field models. The method allows an efficient implementation of Fourier acceleration and is shown to reduce completely critical slowing down for the Gaussian model, i. e., $z=0$.

Proving time bounds for randomized distributed algorithms
A method of analyzing time bounds for randomized distributed algorithms is presented, in the context of a new and general framework for describing and reasoning about randomized algorithms. The method consists of proving auxiliary statements of the form U (t)->(p) U', which means that whenever the algorithm begins in a...

On the minimum latency problem
We are given a set of points $p_1,\ldots , p_n$ and a symmetric distance matrix $(d_{ij})$ giving the distance between $p_i$ and $p_j$. We wish to construct a tour that minimizes $\sum_{i=1}^n \ell(i)$, where $\ell(i)$ is the {\em latency} of $p_i$, defined to be the distance traveled before first visiting $p_i$. This ...

An on-line algorithm for improving performance in navigation
Recent papers have shown optimally-competitive on-line strategies for a robot traveling from a point $s$ to a point $t$ in certain unknown geometric environments.

Geometry based heuristics for unit disk graphs
