Instability of Cauchy horizon induced by the graviton mass by Lu Chen, Shun Jiang

“…The results indicate that even in the absence of a cosmological constant, the mass of the graviton can lead to violations of the strong cosmic censorship (SCC) conjecture for nearly extremal black holes within the classical framework. Additionally, we examined the effects of graviton mass and other parameters on the region of SCC violation, revealing that as the graviton mass increases, the interval of SCC violation correspondingly expands.…”

Complex network clustering algorithm based on Jordan-form of Laplace-matrix by Jian-wei NIU, Bin DAI, Chao TONG, Guan-ying HUO, Jing PENG

“…Among existing clustering algorithms,the graph-Laplacian-based spectrum clustering algorithm has rigorous theoretical basis and high accuracy.However,the application of this algorithm is limited by its dependence on the prior knowledge,such as the number and the size of clusters.Based on the Jordan form of graph Laplacian,an algorithm was proposed which can obtain the prior knowledge,and perform the primary clustering based on the eigenvalues of the Jordan form.The modularity density function of clusters was defined,and an improved spectrum clustering algorithm with the help of the function and the primary clustering was proposed.The experiments were conducted on diverse datasets showing that,compared with the classic algorithms such as Fast-Newman and Girvan-Newman,the algorithm can reach a high clustering accuracy and a fast convergence rate.…”

Analysis of stability condition for LDPC codes and optimizing degree sequences over mixed channel by Kang-ning SUN, Lin-hua MA, Le RU, Wen-tong FAN, Xing HU, Shao-cheng HUANG

“…Under the circumstance that white Gaussian noise and random erasures exist all at once,the stability condition for LDPC codes over mixed channel was proposed.And it was proved that a good degree sequence of LDPC codes was not optimized over mixed channel.It can also be proved by simulation.The random particle swarm optimization (RPSO) and simulated annealing (SA) algorithm were combined to find some capacity-approaching degree sequences over mixed channel with different erasure probabilities.The threshold of signal-to-noise ratio improves 1.615 9 dB than that of the classical degree sequences calculated by Gaussian approximation over mixed channel.These degree sequences are optimal for optical recording and frequency-hopping communication with narrow-band interference.…”

Histogram affine invariants extraction method based on two-scale auto-convolution by Bo HUANG, Xiao-hui ZHAO, Xin-yan CAO, Ji-yin ZHAO, Gong-tao SHI

“…A two-scale auto-convolution histogram affine invariant was proposed.A two-scale auto-convolution transformation was established based on the new image generated by two-dimensional linear transform of image coordinates.Then the value of the new image density function is transformed into the histogram intervals partition and the proposed histogram affine invariant is obtained.In addition,the possible parameter ranges of the new invari are analyzed and the detailed deduction is given.By using the classic ＆quot;fish＆quot;and ＆quot;coil-100＆quot;test database,the effectiveness of the proposed invariant is verified by comparing to the multi-scale auto-convolution normalized histogram affine invariants from the perspective of time efficiency,anti-image distortion,and anti-viewing angle changes.…”

Some Upper Bounds on the First General Zagreb Index by Muhammad Kamran Jamil, Aisha Javed, Ebenezer Bonyah, Iqra Zaman

“…The first general Zagreb index MγG or zeroth-order general Randić index of a graph G is defined as MγG=∑v∈Vdvγ where γ is any nonzero real number, dv is the degree of the vertex v and γ=2 gives the classical first Zagreb index. The researchers investigated some sharp upper and lower bounds on zeroth-order general Randić index (for γ<0) in terms of connectivity, minimum degree, and independent number. …”
