Racah Sum Rule and Biedenharn-Elliott Identity for the Super-Rotation $6-j$ symbols
It is shown that the well known Racah sum rule and Biedenharn-Elliott identity satisfied by the recoupling coefficients or by the $6-j$ symbols of the usual rotation $SO(3)$ algebra can be extended to the corresponding features of the super-rotation $osp(

The Mott insulator phase of the one dimensional Bose-Hubbard model: a high order perturbative study [PDF]
The one dimensional Bose-Hubbard model at a unit filling factor is studied by means of a very high order symbolic perturbative expansion. Analytical expressions are derived for the ground state quantities such as energy per site, variance of on-site ...

Towards extending the Chern-Simons couplings at order $O(\alpha'^2)$
Using the compatibility of the anomalous Chern-Simons couplings on D$_p$-branes with the linear T-duality and with the antisymmetric B-field gauge transformations, some couplings have been recently found for $C^{(p-3)}$ at order $O(\alpha'^2)$.

Conformational Preferences of 3-(Dimethylazinoyl)propanoic Acid as a Function of pH and Solvent; Intermolecular versus Intramolecular Hydrogen Bonding [PDF]
The conformational equilibrium of 3-(dimethylazinoyl)propanoic acid (DMAPA, azinoyl = N^+(O^−) has a weak pH-dependence in D_2O, with a slight preference for trans in alkaline solutions.

Multimode interference devices for focusing in microfluidic channels [PDF]
Low-cost, compact, automated optical microsystems for chemical analysis, such as microflow cytometers for identification of individual biological cells, require monolithically integrated microlenses for focusing in microfluidic channels, to enable high ...

Revised Lens Model for the Multiply-Imaged Lensed Supernova, "SN Refsdal", in MACS J1149+2223
We present a revised lens model of MACS J1149+2223, in which the first resolved multiply-imaged lensed supernova was discovered. The lens model is based on the model of Johnson et al. (2014) with some modifications.
