Suppose V^G is the fixed-point vertex operator subalgebra of a compact group G acting on a simple abelian intertwining algebra V. We show that if all irreducible V^G-modules contained in V live in some braided tensor category of V^G-modules, then they generate a tensor subcategory equivalent to the category Rep G of finite-dimensional representations of G, with associativity and braiding isomorphisms modified by the abelian 3-cocycle defining the abelian intertwining algebra structure on V. Additionally, we show that if the fusion rules for the irreducible V^G-modules contained in V agree with the dimensions of spaces of intertwiners among G-modules, then the irreducibles contained in V already generate a braided tensor category of V^G-modules. These results do not require rigidity on any tensor category of V^G-modules and thus apply to many examples where braided tensor category structure is known to exist but rigidity is not known; for example they apply when V^G is C_2-cofinite but not necessarily rational. When V^G is both C_2-cofinite and rational and V is a vertex operator algebra, we use the equivalence between Rep G and the corresponding subcategory of V^G-modules to show that V is also rational. As another application, we show that a certain category of modules for the Virasoro algebra at central charge 1 admits a braided tensor category structure equivalent to Rep SU(2), up to modification by an abelian 3-cocycle.

We study analytic properties of harmonic maps from Riemannian polyhedra into CAT(κ) spaces for κ∈{0,1}. Locally, on each top-dimensional face of the domain, this amounts to studying harmonic maps from smooth domains into CAT(κ) spaces. We compute a target variation formula that captures the curvature bound in the target, and use it to prove an Lp Liouville-type theorem for harmonic maps from admissible polyhedra into convex CAT(κ) spaces. Another consequence we derive from the target variation formula is the Eells–Sampson Bochner formula for CAT(1) targets.

Let A and A be non-negative self-adjoint operators in a separable Hilbert space such that its form sum A is densely defined. It is shown that the Trotter product formula holds for imaginary times in the A -norm, that is, one has%%\begin {displaymath}

We present two uniformly accurate numerical methods for discretizing the Zakharovsystem (ZS) with a dimensionless parameter 0< ε ≤ 1, which is inversely proportional to theacoustic speed. In the subsonic limit regime, i.e., 0< ε << 1, the solution of ZS propagates waves with O(ε)- andO(1)-wavelengths in time and space, respectively, and/or rapid outgoing initial layerswith speed O(1/ε) in space due to the singular perturbation of the wave operator in ZS and/or theincompatibility of the initial data. By adopting an asymptotic consistent formulation of ZS, wepresent a time-splitting exponential wave integrator (TS-EWI) method via applying a time-splittingtechnique and an exponential wave integrator for temporal derivatives in the nonlinear Schr ̈odingerequation and wave-type equation, respectively. By introducing a multiscale decomposition of ZS, wepropose a time-splitting multiscale time integrator (TS-MTI) method. Both methods are explicitand convergent exponentially in space for all kinds of initial data, which is uniformly for ε ∈ (0,1].The TS-EWI method is simpler to be implemented and it is only uniformly and optimally accuratein time for well-prepared initial data, while the TS-MTI method is uniformly and optimally accuratein time for any kind of initial data. Extensive numerical results are reported to show their efficiencyand accuracy, especially in the subsonic limit regime. Finally, the TS-MTI method is applied tostudy numerically convergence rates of ZS to its limiting models when ε→0+.

SMS4 is a 128-bit block cipher used in the WAPI standard for providing data confidentiality in wireless networks. In this paper we investigate and explain the origin of the S-Box employed by the cipher, show that an embedded cipher similar to BES can be obtained for SMS4 and demonstrate the fragility of the cipher design by giving variants that exhibit 2^{64} weak keys. We also show attacks on reduced round versions of the cipher. The best practical attack we found is an integral attack that works on 10 rounds out of 32 rounds with a complexity of 2^{18} operations; it can be extended to 13 rounds using round key guesses, resulting in a complexity of 2^{114} operations and a data complexity of 2^{16} chosen pairs.

In this paper, we generalize the Cao-Yau'’s gradient estimate for the sum of squares of vector …elds up to higher step under ssumption of the generalized curvature-dimension inequality. With its applications, by deriving a curvature-dimension inequality, we are able to obtain the Li-Yau gradient estimate for the CR heat equation in a closed pseudohermitian manifold of nonvanishing torsion tensors. As consequences, we obtain the Harnack inequality and upper bound estimate for the CR heat kernel. 1.

We analyze spectrum of Laplacian supported by a periodic honeycomb lattice with generally unequal edge lengths and a <i></i> type coupling in the vertices. Such a quantum graph has nonempty point spectrum with compactly supported eigenfunctions provided all the edge lengths are commensurate. We derive conditions determining the continuous spectral component and show that existence of gaps may depend on number-theoretic properties of edge lengths ratios. The case when two of the three lengths coincide is discussed in detail.
