Debye Entropic Force and Modified Newtonian Dynamics
Verlinde has suggested that the gravity has enentropic origin, and a gravitational system could be regarded as a thermodynamical system. It is well-known that the equipartition law of energy is invalid at very low temperature. Therefore, entropic force should be modified while the temperature of the holographic screen is very low. It is shown that the modified entropic force is proportional to the square of the acceleration, while the temperature of the holographic screen is much lower than the Debye temperature T(D). The modified entropic force returns to the Newton's law of gravitation while the temperature of the holographic screen is much higher than the Debye temperature. The modified entropic force is connected with modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND). The constant a(0) involved in MOND is linear in the Debye frequency omega(D), which can be regarded as the largest frequency of the bits in screen. We find that there do have a strong connection between MOND and cosmology in the frame work of Verlinde's entropic force, if the holographic screen is taken to be bound of the Universe. The Debye frequency is linear in the Hubble constant H(0).

Massive domain wall fermions on four-dimensional anisotropic lattices
We formulate the massive domain wall fermions on anisotropic lattices. For the massive domain wall fermion, we find that the dispersion relation assumes the usual form in the low momentum region when the bare parameters are properly tuned. The quark self-energy and the quark field renormalization constants are calculated to one-loop in bare lattice perturbation theory. For light domain wall fermions, we verified that the chiral mode is stable against quantum fluctuations on anisotropic lattices. This calculation serves as a guidance for the tuning of the parameters in the quark action in future numerical simulations.

A Possible scenario of the Pioneer anomaly in the framework of Finsler geometry
The weak field approximation of geodesics in Randers-Finsler space is investigated. We show that a Finsler structure of Randers space corresponds to the constant and sunward anomalous acceleration demonstrated by the Pioneer 10 and 11 data. The additional term in the geodesic equation acts as "electric force", which provides the anomalous acceleration. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Symmetry and special relativity in Finsler spacetime with constant curvature
Within the framework of projective geometry, we investigate kinematics and symmetry in (alpha, beta) spacetime one special types of Finsler spacetime. The projectively flat (alpha, beta) spacetime with constant flag curvature is divided into four types. The symmetry in type A-Riemann spacetime with constant sectional curvature-is just the one in de Sitter special relativity. The symmetry in type B-locally Minkowski spacetime-is just the one in very special relativity. It is found that type C-Funk spacetime and type D-scaled Berwald's metric spacetime both possess the Lorentz group as its isometric group. The geodesic equation, algebra and dispersion relation in the (alpha, beta) spacetime are given. The corresponding invariant special relativity in the four types of (alpha, beta) spacetime contain two parameters, the speed of light and a geometrical parameter, which may relate to the new physical scale. They all reduce to Einstein's special relativity while the geometrical parameter vanishes. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

OPERA SUPERLUMINAL NEUTRINOS AND KINEMATICS IN FINSLER SPACETIME
The OPERA collaboration recently reported that the muon neutrinos could be superluminal. More recently, Cohen and Glashow pointed that such superluminal neutrinos would be suppressed since they lose their energies rapidly via bremsstrahlung. Here, we propose that the Finslerian nature of the space time could account for the superluminal phenomena of particles. The Finsler spacetime permits the existence of the superluminal behavior of particles while the causality still holds. A new dispersion relation is obtained in a class of Finsler spacetimes. It is shown that the superluminal speed is linearly dependent on the energy per unit mass of the particle. We find that such a superluminal speed formula is consistent with the data of the OPERA, MINOS and Fermilab-1979 neutrino experiments as well as the observations on the neutrinos from the SN1987A.

A six-dimensional cosmology solution with GUT and monopole-induced spontaneous compactification
In this paper, the authors present a cosmological solution of a six-dimensional Einstein-gauge unification theory to which is added a matter term. This exact solution appears that cosmology of the very early universe may differ considerably from the usually contemplated scenarios.

Fluctuation with dust of de Sitter ground state of scalar-tensor gravity
An exact de Sitter solution of scalar-tensor gravity is found in our recent work, in which the non-minimal coupling scalar is rolling along a non-constant potential. Based on this solution, a dust-filled FRW universe is explored in frame of scalar-tensor gravity in this article. The effective dark energy induced by the sole non-minimal scalar can be quintessence-like, phantom-like, and more significantly, can cross the phantom divide. The rich and varied properties of scalar-tensor gravity even with only one scalar is shown.

Weyl superfluidity in a three-dimensional dipolar Fermi gas.
Weyl superconductivity or superfluidity, a fascinating topological state of matter, features novel phenomena such as emergent Weyl fermionic excitations and anomalies. Here we report that an anisotropic Weyl superfluid state can arise as a low temperature stable phase in a 3D dipolar Fermi gas. A crucial ingredient of our model is a direction-dependent two-body effective attraction generated by a rotating external field. Experimental signatures are predicted for cold gases in radio-frequency spectroscopy. The finite temperature phase diagram of this system is studied and the transition temperature of the Weyl superfluidity is found to be within the experimental scope for atomic dipolar Fermi gases.

Cyclotron dynamics of interacting bosons in artificial magnetic fields
We study theoretically quantum dynamics of interacting bosons in artificial magnetic fields as engineered in recent ultracold atomic experiments, where quantum cyclotron orbital motion has been observed. With exact numerical simulations and perturbative analyses, we find that interactions induce damping in the cyclotron motion. The damping time is found to be dependent on interaction and tunneling strengths monotonically, while its dependence on magnetic flux is non-monotonic. Sufficiently strong interactions would render bosons dynamically localized inhibiting the cyclotron motion. The damping predicted by us can be construed as an interaction-induced quantum decoherence of the cyclotron motion.
