Estimating the strong coupling from $\tau$ decay using accelerating series convergence

We apply the Euler transformation to accelerate the convergence of the QCD perturbative series with the aim to determine the strong coupling $\alpha_s$ in terms of the total $\tau$-decay rate $r_\tau$. The variation of the result with the order of the QCD perturbation theory is small and comparable with the uncertainties of $r_\tau$. We also present an estimate of a range of the yet unknown 5th and 6th order coefficients $k_5$ and $k_6$ of the Adler function.

An integral equation method for the inverse conductivity problem

We present an image reconstruction algorithm for the Inverse Conductivity Problem based on reformulating the problem in terms of integral equations. We use as data the values of injected electric currents and of the corresponding induced boundary potentials, as well as the boundary values of the electrical conductivity. We have used a priori information to find a regularized conductivity distribution by first solving a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind for the Laplacian of the potential, and then by solving a first order partial differential equation for the regularized conductivity itself. Many of the calculations involved in the method can be achieved analytically using the eigenfunctions of an integral operator defined in the paper.

QCD condensates from tau-decay data: A functional approach

We study a functional method to extract the V-A condensate of dimension 6 from a comparison of tau-decay data with the asymptotic space-like QCD prediction. Our result is in agreement within errors with that from conventional analyses based on finite energy sum rules.
