FRACTIONAL SUPERSYMMETRY THROUGH GENERALIZED ANYONIC ALGEBRA
by Jamila Douari and Yassine Hassouni
ABSTRACT: The construction of anyonic operators and algebra is
generalized by using quons operators. Therefore, the particular version
of fractional supersymmetry is constructed on the two-dimensional
lattice by associating two generalized anyons of different kinds. The
fractional supersymmetry Hamiltonian operator is obtained on the
two-dimensional lattice and the quantum algebra $U_{q}(sl_{2})$ is
realized.

THE FSUSY HAMILTONIAN IN CONNECTION WITH THE CHERN-SIMONS GAUGE THEORY
by J. Douari and Y. Hassouni
ABSTRACT: On the two-dimensional lattice, the construction of anyonic
operators and its algebras is discussed. Thus, the fractional supersymetry 
(FSUSY) and the associated FSUSY Hamiltonian basing on the quonic anyons 
are recalled. Its particular case for bosonic anyon and fermionic anyon is 
given. The FSUSY Hamiltonian in connection with the Chern-Simons gauge

theory is constructed.

GENERALIZED FRACTIONAL SUPERSYMMETRY ASSOCIATED TO DIFFERENT 
SPECIES OF ANYONS
by Jamila Douari and Yassine Hassouni
ABSTRACT: We consider multiple species of anyons characterized by
different statistical parameters. First, we redefine the anyonic algebra
and then generalize this definition by constructing the anyonic
superalgebra. Finally, we use these tools to generalize the fractional
supersymmetry already discussed in Douari and Hassouni (2000).

NON-LOCAL ENERGY DENSITY FUNCTIONALS:
MODELS PLUS SOME EXACT GENERAL RESULTS
by N.H. March
ABSTRACT: Holas and March (Phys. Rev. {\bf A51}, 2040, 1995) gave a 
formally exact expression for the force $-\frac{\partial V_{xc}(\r 
)}{\partial\r}$ associated with the exchange-correlation 
potential $V_{xc}(\r )$ of density functional theory. This forged a precise 
link between first- and second-order density matrices and $V_{xc}(\r )$. 
Here models are presented in which these low-order matrices can be related 
to the ground-state electron density. This allows non-local energy density 
functionals to be constructed within the framework of such models. Finally, 
results emerging from these models have led to the derivation of some 
exact 'nuclear cusp' relations for exchange and correlation energy 
densities in molecules, clusters and condensed phases.

SOLVING THE GENERAL TRUNCATED MOMENT PROBLEM
BY $r$-GENERALIZED FIBONACCI SEQUENCES METHOD
by C.E. Chidume, M. Rachid and E.H. Zerouali
ABSTRACT: We give in this paper a new method for solving the generalized 
truncated power moment problem. To this aim we use $r$-generalized 
Fibonacci sequences and their associated minimal polynomials. We provide an 
algorithm of construction of solutions in a short method. This method 
allows us to avoid any appeal to Hankel matrices or any positive 
difiniteness conditions as in Flessas-Burton-Whitehead (FBW) approach.

Examples and general cases are discussed.

PHOTOPRODUCTION OF AXIONS IN A RESONANT ELECTROMAGNETIC CAVITY
by Dang Van Soa, Hoang Ngoc Long, Ha Huy Bang and Nguyen Mai Hung
ABSTRACT: Photon - axion conversions in a resonant electromagnetic 
cavity with frequency equal to the axion mass are considered 
in detail by the Feynman diagram methods. The differential cross 
sections are presented and numerical evaluations are given. It is shown

that there is a resonant conversion for the considered process. From our 
results, some estimates for experimental conditions are given.

EMISSION OF INTERMEDIATE MASS FRAGMENTS IN THE HEAVY ION INTERACTION 
OF (14.0 MeV/u) Pb + Au
by E.U. Khan, I.E. Qureshi, M.I. Shahzad, F.N. Khattak and H.A. Khan 
ABSTRACT: We have studied the heavy ion interactions of (14.0 MeV/u) Pb + 
Au using two threshold detectors, mica and CN-85. A thin layer of Au was 
deposited on each of the three mica and two CN-85 detector pieces. These 
target-detector assemblies were exposed to a beam of 14.0 MeV/u Pb ions

having the fluence of $1.5\otimes 106 /cm^2$ at GSI, Darmstadt, Germany. 
After removing the target material and etching the samples in appropriate 
etchants, we scanned 32.29 cm$^2$ and 24.97 cm$^2$ area of mica and CN-85, 
respectively. Based on the observed number of events of various 
multiplicities, we have determined the total as well as partial 
experimental reaction cross sections. It is shown that a significant number 
of intermediate mass fragments are emitted alongwith the heavy fragments in 
the present reaction.

ANOMALOUS $U(1)_{A}$ AND ELECTROWEAK SYMMETRY BREAKING
by Ilia Gogoladze and Mirian Tsulaia
ABSTRACT: We suggest a  mechanism for electroweak symmetry breaking
in the Supersymmetric Standard Model. Our suggestion is based on the
presence of an anomalous $U(1)_{A}$ gauge symmetry,
which  naturally arises in the four dimensional superstring theory, and

heavily relies on the value of the corresponding Fayet-Illiopoulos $\xi$-
term.

DIFFERENTIAL THERMOPOWER OF A CHIRAL CARBON NANOTUBE
by S.Y. Mensah, F.K.A. Allotey, N.G. Mensah and G. Nkrumah
ABSTRACT: Differential thermopower of a chiral carbon nanotube (CNT) was 
calculated using a tractable analytical approach. We obtained an expression 
for the electrical conductivity $\sigma $ and the thermopower $\alpha $. 
The results were numerically analysed. We noted from the values of $\alpha$ 
that the material can behave as a semimetal, n-type semiconductor and p-
type as well, depending on the parameters of the CNT. We proposed the use 
of CNT as thermoelement.

GROUND STATE ENERGY OF A POLARON IN A SUPERLATTICE
by S.Y. Mensah, F.K.A. Allotey, G. Nkrumah and N.G. Mensah
ABSTRACT: The ground state energy of a polaron in a superlattice was 
calculated using the double-time Green functions. The effective mass of the 
polaron along the planes perpendicular to the superlattice axis was also 
calculated. The dependence of the ground state energy and the effective

mass along the planes perpendicular to the superlattice axis on the 
electron-phonon coupling constant $\alpha $ and on the superlattice 
parameters (i.e. the superlattice period $d$ and the bandwidth $\Delta $) 
were studied. It was observed that if an infinite square well potential is 
assumed, the ground state energy of the polaron decreases (i.e. becomes

more negative) with increasing $\alpha $ and $d$, but increases with 
increasing $\Delta $. For small values of $\alpha $, the polaron ground

state energy varies slowly with $\Delta $, becoming approximately constant 
for large $\Delta $. The effective mass along the planes perpendicular to 
the superlattice axis was found to be approximately equal to the mass of an 
electron for all typical values of $\alpha $, $d$ and $\Delta $.

ON THE SOLVABILITY IN A CLOSED FORM OF A CLASS OF
SINGULAR INTEGRAL EQUATIONS
by Nguyen Van  Mau and Nguyen Minh Tuan
ABSTRACT: This paper deals with the solvability of singular integral 
equations of the  form $$\sum_{k=1}^na_k(t)\varphi(\epsilon_kt)
  +\sum_{k=1}^n\frac{1}{ \pi i}
  \int\limits_{\Gamma}\frac{\tau^{n-1-k}t^k}{
  \tau^n-t^n}m_k(\tau,t)\varphi(\tau)d\tau =  f(t),\eqno(1)$$
where $\Gamma$ is the unit circle on the complex plane, $\epsilon_1=\exp
(2\pi i/n), \epsilon_k=\epsilon_1^k.$ We indicate that equation (1) is

exactly a singular integral equation of Cauchy type with certain shift. The 
method in this paper is to reduce equation (1) to the  well-known Riemann 
boundary value problems and describe  solutions  in a closed form.

DISCRETE PLANCK SPECTRA
by Valentin I. Vlad and Nicholas Ionescu-Pallas
ABSTRACT: The Planck radiation spectrum of ideal cubic and spherical 
cavities, in the region of small adiabatic invariance $\gamma =TV^{1/3}$, 
is shown to be discrete and strongly dependent on the cavity geometry and 
temperature. This behavior is the consequence of the random distribution of 
the state weights in the cubic cavity and of the random overlapping of the 
successive multiplet components, for the spherical cavity. The total energy 
(obtained by summing up the exact contributions of the eigenvalues and

their weights, for low values of the adiabatic invariance) does not obey 
any longer Stefan-Boltzmann law. The new law includes a corrective factor 
depending on $\gamma$ and imposes a faster decrease of the total energy to 
zero, for $\gamma\to 0$. We have defined the double quantized regime both 
for cubic and spherical cavities by the superior and inferior limits put on 
the principal quantum numbers or the adiabatic invariance. The total energy 
of the double quantized cavities shows large differences from the classical 
calculations over unexpected large intervals, which are measurable and put 
in evidence important macroscopic quantum effects.

GENERAL THEORY TO DETERMINE THE CRITICAL CHARGE DENSITY
by Floran Vila
ABSTRACT: In this work we determine theoretically the critical
charge density in the system grounded metallic sphere, uniformly charged
dielectric plane, in the presence of grounded surfaces, in a more
general case. Special attention is payed to the influence of the
system geometry in determining the most optimal conditions for
obtaining the minimum critical charge density. This is a situation 
frequently encountered in industrial condition and is important in 
evaluating the danger of the electrostatic discharges.

ALGEBRAIC CHARACTERIZATIONS OF GENERALIZED RIGHT INVERTIBLE
OPERATORS OF DEGREE $k$
by Nguyen Van  Mau, Pham Thi Bach Ngoc and Nguyen Minh Tuan
ABSTRACT: Ng. V. Mau and Ng. M. Tuan (1997) constructed a class of 
generalized right invertible operators of degree $k$ and investigaated the 
algebraic characterizations of these operators. In this paper, we obtain 
the algebraaic characterizations of the generalized right invertible 
operators of degree $k, k>1.$

STOCHASTICS THEORY OF LOG-PERIODIC PATTERNS
by Enrique Canessa
ABSTRACT: We introduce an analytical model based on birth-death clustering
processes to help understand the empirical log-periodic corrections to

power-law scaling and the finite-time singularity as reported in several 
domains including rupture, earthquakes, world population and financial

systems.  In our stochastics theory log-periodicities are a consequence of 
transient clusters induced by an entropy-like term that may reflect the

amount of cooperative information carried by the state of a large system of 
different species.  The clustering completion rates for the system are

assumed to be given by a simple linear death process.  The singularity

at $t_{o}$ is derived in terms of birth-death clustering coefficients.
