43 results for ferromagnets

Geometrical flows (GF) play an important role in modern mathematics and physics. In this letter we have considered some integrable isotropic GF -- Ricci flows (RF) and mean curvature flows (MCF) -- which are related with integrable Heisenberg ferromagnets. In 2+1 dimensions, these GF have a singularity at t=t0t=t_{0}.

Approximate algorithms for structured prediction problems---such as LP relaxations and the popular alpha-expansion algorithm (Boykov et al. 2001)---typically far exceed their theoretical performance guarantees on real-world instances. These algorithms often find solutions that are very close to optimal. The goal of thi…
