On Lorentz Invariant Complex Scalar Fields by Gustavo Rigolin

“…We show that the spacetime-dependent phase fx is the most natural relativistic extension of the phase associated with the transformation rule for the nonrelativistic Schrödinger wave function when it is subjected to a Galilean transformation. We then generalize the previous analysis by postulating that Ψx transforms according to the above rule under proper Lorentz transformations (boosts or spatial rotations). …”

Resource Scheduling Method for Integration of TT＆C and Observation Based on Multi-Agent Deep Reinforcement Learning by Siyue CHENG, Haoran LI, Weigang BAI, Di ZHOU, Yan ZHU

“…With the development of satellite communication technology and the continuous expansion of the constellation scale, the integration of TT＆amp;C and observation technology has become the mainstream trend.The large constellation scale, many scheduling objects and complex operation joint control bring great challenges to the integrated resource scheduling of satellite network TT＆amp;C and observation.Subject to the low solution effi ciency and complex constraints of scheduling algorithms, the traditional TT＆amp;C resource scheduling technology adopts the advance injection TT＆amp;C instructions to perform tasks according to the fi xed deployment, which is diffi cult to meet the scheduling needs of emergencies and emergency tasks.Therefore, a kind of resource scheduling method based on multi-agent actor-Agent Actor-Critic Deterministic Policy Gradient Algorithms (MADDPG) was presented.With centralized training and distributed execution, the multi-agent model of integrated task of TT＆amp;C and observation was established.By analyzed the scheduling strategy of neighbor agent, the response speed of local information was improved.According to the model and constraints in the integrated resource scheduling problem of TT＆amp;C and observation, selected signifi cant and interpretable constraints, then established the multi-agent resource scheduling reinforcement learning model, and carried on the simulation test.The simulation results showed that the task benefi t of this method was 22% higher than the traditional method.…”
