We present a study of B0→Ds*+π- and B0→Ds*-K+ decays based on a sample of 657×106 BB̄ events collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. We measure the branching fractions to be B(B0→Ds*+π-)=(1.75±0.34(stat)±0.17(syst) ±0 ...
The EPDiff equation (or dispersionless Camassa-Holm equation in 1D) is a well known example of geodesic motion on the Diff group of smooth invertible maps (diffeomorphisms). Its recent two-component extension governs geodesic motion on the semidirect produ ...
In this paper, we focus on the use of random projections as a dimensionality reduction tool for sampled manifolds in high-dimensional Euclidean spaces. We show that geodesic paths approximations from nearest neighbors Euclidean distances are well-preserved ...
Using geodesic length functions, we define a natural family of real codimension 1 subvarieties of Teichmuller space, namely the subsets where the lengths of two distinct simple closed geodesics are of equal length. We investigate the point set topology of ...
We present an in-depth analysis of the geometrical percolation behavior in the continuum of random assemblies of hard oblate ellipsoids of revolution. Simulations were carried out by considering a broad range of aspect-ratios, from spheres up to aspect-rat ...
