Solutions of the Quantum Yang-Baxter Equation with Extra Nonadditive Parameters
We present a systematic technique to construct solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation which depend not only on a spectral parameter but in addition on further continuous parameters. These extra parameters enter the Yang-Baxter equation in a similar way to the spectral parameter but in a non-additive form. We exploit the fact that quantum non-compact algebras such as Uq(su(1,1)) and type-I quantum superalgebras such as Uq(gl(1 mod 1)) and Uq(gl(2 mod 1)) are known to admit non-trivial one-parameter families of infinite-dimensional and finite-dimensional irreps, respectively, even for generic q. We develop a technique for constructing the corresponding spectral-dependent R-matrices. As examples, we work out the the R-matrices for the three quantum algebras mentioned above in certain representations.

Infinite Families of Gauge-Equivalent R-Matrices and Gradations of Quantized Affine Algebras
Associated with the fundamental representation of a quantum algebra such as Uq(A1) or Uq(A2), there exist infinitely many gauge-equivalent R-matrices with different spectralparameter dependences. It is shown how these can be obtained by examining the infinitely many possible gradations of the corresponding quantum affine algebras, such as and , and explicit formulae are obtained for those two cases. Spectral-dependent similarity (gauge) transformations relate the R-matrices in different gradations, Nevertheless, the choice of gradation can be physically significant, as is illustrated in the case of quantum affine Toda field theories.

Local Quasitriangular Hopf Algebras
We find a new class of Hopf algebras, local quasitriangular Hopf algebras, which generalize quasitriangular Hopf algebras. Using these Hopf algebras, we obtain solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation in a systematic way. The category of modules with finite cycles over a local quasitriangular Hopf algebra is a braided tensor category.

Construction of basis vectors for symmetric irreducible representations of O(5) $ \supset$ O(3)
Abstract.A recursive method for the construction of symmetric irreducible representations of $ O(2l+1)$ in the $ O(2l+1)\supset O(3)$ basis for identical boson systems is proposed. The formalism is realized based on the group chain $ U(2l+1)\supset U(2l-1)\otimes U(2)$ , of which the symmetric irreducible representations are simply reducible. The basis vectors for symmetric irreducible representations of the $ O(2l+1)\supset O(2l-1)\otimes U(1)$ can easily be constructed from those of U(2l + 1) $ \supset$U(2l - 1) ⊗ U(2) $ \supset$O(2l - 1) ⊗ U(1) with no l -boson pairs, namely with the total boson number exactly equal to the seniority number in the system, from which one can construct symmetric irreducible representations of $ O(2l+1)$ in the $ O(2l-1)\otimes U(1)$ basis when all symmetric irreducible representations of O(2l - 1) are known. As a starting point, basis vectors of symmetric irreducible representations of O(5) are constructed in the $ O_{1}(3)\otimes U(1)$ basis, where $ O_{1}(3)\equiv O(2l-1)$ , when l = 2 , which is generated not by the angular momentum operators of the d -boson system, but by the operators constructed from d -boson creation (annihilation) operators $ d^{\dagger}_{\mu}$ ( $ d_{\mu}$ with $ \mu=1$ , 0, -1 . Matrix representations of $ O(5)\supset O_{1}(3)\otimes U(1)$ , together with the elementary Wigner coefficients, are presented. After the angular momentum projection, a three-term relation in determining the expansion coefficients of the $ O(5)\supset O(3)$ basis vectors, where the O(3) group is generated by the angular momentum operators of the d -boson system, in terms of those of $ O_{1}(3)\otimes U(1)$ is derived. The eigenvectors of the projection matrix with zero eigenvalues constructed according to the three-term relation completely determine the basis vectors of $ O(5)\supset O(3)$ . Formulae for evaluating the elementary Wigner coefficients of $ O(5)\supset O(3)$ are derived explicitly. Analytical expressions of some elementary Wigner coefficients of $ O(5)\supset O(3)$ for the coupling $ (\tau 0)\otimes(1 0)$ with resultant angular momentum quantum number L = 2$ \tau$ + 2 - k for $ k=0,2,3,\ldots,6$ with a multiplicity 2 case for k = 6 are presented.

Elliptic Gaudin models and elliptic KZ equations
The Gaudin models based on the face-type elliptic quantum groups and the XYZ Gaudin models are studied. The Gaudin model Hamiltonians are constructed and are diagonalized by using the algebraic Bethe ansatz method. The corresponding face-type Knizhnik–Zamolodchikov equations and their solutions are given.

Hawking-Moss instanton in nonlinear massive gravity
As a first step toward understanding a lanscape of vacua in a theory of non-linear massive gravity, we consider a landscape of a single scalar field and study tunneling between a pair of adjacent vacua. We study the Hawking-Moss (HM) instanton that sits at a local maximum of the potential, and evaluate the dependence of the tunneling rate on the parameters of the theory. It is found that provided with the same physical HM Hubble parameter HHM, depending on the values of parameters ?3 and ?4 in the action (2.2), the corresponding tunneling rate can be either enhanced or suppressed when compared to the one in the context of General Relativity (GR). Furthermore, we find the constraint on the ratio of the physical Hubble parameter to the fiducial one, which constrains the form of potential. This result is in sharp contrast to GR where there is no bound on the minimum value of the potential.

Determination of the Newtonian gravitational constant G with time-of-swing method.
We present a new value of the Newtonian gravitational constant G by using the time-of-swing method. Several improvements greatly reduce the uncertainties: (1) measuring the anelasticity of the fiber directly; (2) using spherical source masses minimizes the effects of density inhomogeneity and eccentricities; (3) using a quartz block pendulum simplifies its vibration modes and minimizes the uncertainty of inertial moment; (4) setting the pendulum and source masses both in a vacuum chamber reduces the error of measuring the relative positions. By two individual experiments, we obtain G = 6.673 49(18) x 10;{-11} m;{3} kg;{-1} s;{-2} with a standard uncertainty of about 2.6 parts in 10;{5}.

EFFECTS OF DENSE MATTER ON HADRON PRODUCTION IN HEAVY-ION COLLISIONS ‡
The intrinsic transverse momentum distribution of partons in the nucleon can be used to explain a large amount of high-pT hadron and photon production data in high-energy nucleon-nucleon collisions at energies √ s ≈ 20 to 1800 GeV. However, proton-nucleus experiments at energies ≈ 30 GeV show an extra enhancement (Cronin effect) in the yield of photons and mesons compared to a simple extrapolation of the proton-proton data. This enhancement is due to the effect of the dense hadronic matter encountered by the projectile proton in the nuclear environment. We discuss the origin and the properties of the nuclear enhancement.

Composite-particle hydrodynamics from dyonic black branes
We construct effective hydrodynamics for composite particles in (2+1) dimensions carrying a magnetic flux by employing a holographic approach. The hydrodynamics is obtained by perturbation of the dyonic black brane solutions in the derivative expansion. We introduce a consistent way to avoid mixing of different orders in the expansion. Thanks to this method, it is possible to take the strong external magnetic field limit in the dual field theory. To compare our result with those for a composite particle system, we study several cases that correspond to special solutions of Einstein’s equation and Maxwell’s equations.
