Higgs Naturalness and Dark Matter Stability by Scale Invariance

Extending the spacetime symmetries of standard model (SM) by scale invariance (SI) may address the Higgs naturalness problem. In this article we attempt to embed accidental dark matter (DM) into SISM, requiring that the symmetry protecting DM stability is accidental due to the model structure rather than imposed by hand. In this framework, if the light SM-like Higgs boson is the pseudo Goldstone boson of SI spontaneously breaking, we can even pine down the model, two-Higgs-doublets plus a real singlet: The singlet is the DM candidate and the extra Higgs doublet triggers electroweak symmetry breaking via the Coleman-Weinberg mechanism; Moreover, it dominates DM dynamics. We study spontaneously breaking of SI using the Gillard-Weinberg approach and find that the second doublet should acquire vacuum expectation value near the weak scale. Moreover, its components should acquire masses around 380 GeV except for a light CP-odd Higgs boson. Based on these features, we explore viable ways to achieve the correct relic density of DM, facing stringent constraints from direct detections of DM. For instance, DM annihilates into $b\bar b$ near the SM-like Higgs boson pole, or into a pair of CP-odd Higgs boson with mass above that pole.

Accidental Dark Matter: Case in the Scale Invariant Local $B-L$ Models

We explore the idea of accidental dark matter (aDM) stability in the scale invariant local $U(1)_{B-L}$ model, which is a theory for neutrino and at the same time radiatively breaks scale invariance via quantum mechanical dynamics in the $U(1)_{B-L}$ sector. A real singlet scalar can be accidental DM with an accidental $Z_2$, by virtue of both extended symmetries. A $U(1)_{B-L}$ charged complex scalar can also be a viable accidental DM due to an accidental (or remanent) $Z_3$. They can reproduce correct relic density via the annihilations through the conventional Higgs portal or dark Higgs portal. The dark Higgs portal scenario is in tension with the LHC bound on $Z_{B-L}$, and only heavy DM of a few TeVs can have correct relic density. In particular, DM may trigger spontaneous breaking of scale Invariance (SISB). The situation is relaxed significantly in the $Z_3$ case due to the effective semi-annihilation mode and then light DM can be accommodated easily. In addition, the $Z_3$ model can accommodate the GeV scale $γ-$ray excess from the galactic center (GC) via semi-annihilation into pseudo Goldstone boson (PGSB). The best fit is achieved at a DM about 52 GeV, with annihilation cross section consistent with the thermal relic density. The invisible Higgs branching ratio is negligible because the Higgs portal quartic coupling is very small $λ_{hϕ} \lesssim 10^{-3}$.

NMSSM explanations of the Galactic center gamma ray excess and promising LHC searches

The Galactic Center Excess (GCE) is explained in the framework of the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM) with a $Z_3$ discrete symmetry. We show that a resonant CP-odd Higgs boson with mass twice that of the Dark Matter (DM) candidate is favoured. Meanwhile, the DM candidate is required to have relatively large coupling with the $Z$ boson through its Higgsino component in order to obtain correct DM relic density. Its LHC discovery potential via four signatures is discussed in detail. We find that the most sensitive signals are provided by the Higgsino-like chargino and neutralino pair production with their subsequent decays into $W$ bosons, $Z$ bosons, and DM. The majority of the relevant parameter space can be probed at the Large Hadron Collider with a centre-of-mass energy of 14 TeV and an integrated luminosity 1000 fb$^{-1}$.

HEp-2 Cell Classification via Fusing Texture and Shape Information

Indirect Immunofluorescence (IIF) HEp-2 cell image is an effective evidence for diagnosis of autoimmune diseases. Recently computer-aided diagnosis of autoimmune diseases by IIF HEp-2 cell classification has attracted great attention. However the HEp-2 cell classification task is quite challenging due to large intra-class variation and small between-class variation. In this paper we propose an effective and efficient approach for the automatic classification of IIF HEp-2 cell image by fusing multi-resolution texture information and richer shape information. To be specific, we propose to: a) capture the multi-resolution texture information by a novel Pairwise Rotation Invariant Co-occurrence of Local Gabor Binary Pattern (PRICoLGBP) descriptor, b) depict the richer shape information by using an Improved Fisher Vector (IFV) model with RootSIFT features which are sampled from large image patches in multiple scales, and c) combine them properly. We evaluate systematically the proposed approach on the IEEE International Conference on Pattern Recognition (ICPR) 2012, IEEE International Conference on Image Processing (ICIP) 2013 and ICPR 2014 contest data sets. The experimental results for the proposed methods significantly outperform the winners of ICPR 2012 and ICIP 2013 contest, and achieve comparable performance with the winner of the newly released ICPR 2014 contest.

Higgs Boson Mass and Complex Snuetrino Dark Matter in the Supersymmetric Inverse Seesaw Models

The discovery of a relatively heavy Standard Model (SM) -like Higgs boson challenges naturalness of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) from both Higgs and dark matter (DM) sectors. We study these two aspects in the MSSM extended by the low-scale inverse seesaw mechanism. Firstly, it admits a sizable radiative correction on the Higgs boson mass m_h, up to \sim 4 GeV in the case of an IR-fixed point of the coupling Y_νLH_uν^c and a large sneutrino mixing. Secondly, the lightest sneutrino, highly complex as expected, is a viable thermal DM candidate. Owing to the correct relic density and XENON100, two cases survive: a Higgs-portal complex DM with mass lying around the Higgs pole or above $W$ threshold, and a coannihilating DM with slim prospect of detection. Given an extra family of sneutrinos, both scenarios naturally work when we attempt to suppress the DM left-handed sneutrino component, confronting with enhancing m_h.

Simplified Supersymmetry with Sneutrino LSP at 8 TeV LHC

The current searches of supersymmetry (SUSY) are based on the neutralino lightest sparticle (LSP). In this article we instead focus on SUSY with sneutrino LSP. It is well motivated in many contexts, especially in which sneutrino services as a dark matter candidate. We first develop a simplified model, which contains the stop, chagino/neutralino and sneutrino, to describe the LHC phenomenologies of a large class of models with sneutrino LSP. Then we investigate bounds on the model using the SUSY searches at the 8 TeV LHC. Strong exclusion limits are derived, e.g., masses of stop and chargino can be excluded up to about 900 GeV and 550 GeV, respectively. We also propose optimizations for some searches without turning to higher energy and luminosity.

Implications of Higgs Sterility for the Higgs and Stop Sectors

The LHC data implies that the newly discovered Higgs boson h may be sterile (highly SM-like). In supersymmetric SMs (SSMs), Higgs couplings are often modified by Higgs mixing and stop loop corrections, so we study the Higgs sterility in the Higgs and stop sectors in two SSMs: (I) The Minimal SSM (MSSM). In the nearly decoupling region, the doublet-doublet mixing effect can only enhance C_{hb\bar b} by 2m_Z^2/M_A^2. Sterility places M_A\gtrsim 900 GeV. But it hardly constrains the stop sector due to the heaviness of Higgs boson mass m_h; (II) The next to MSSM(NMSSM). In the presence of doublet-singlet mixing, the mixing structure is complicated. We find a simple approximation to understand Higgs sterility and its implications, says the amount of pushing-up m_h\lesssim 5 GeV while the pulling-down scenario is favored. Stops can be light here, so Higgs sterility significantly constrains them directly and indirectly except for blind spots. We also study the LHC features of the whole stop sector facing a sterile Higgs and find that, in virtue of decays between stops and sbottom, characteristic signatures like same-sign leptons and multi b-jets are promising probes.

Orthogonal graphs over Galois rings of odd characteristic

Assume that $ν$ is a positive integer and $δ=0, 1$ or $2$. In this paper we introduce the orthogonal graph $Γ^{2ν+δ}$ over a Galois ring of odd characteristic and prove that it is arc transitive. Moreover, we compute its parameters as a quasi-strongly regular graph. In particular, we show that $Γ^{2+δ}$ is a strongly regular graph and $Γ^{2ν+1}$ is a strictly Deza graph when $ν\geq 2$.

The electron-ion streaming instabilities driven by drift velocities of the order of electron thermal velocity in a nonmagnetized plasma

We examine the electron-ion streaming instabilities driven by drift velocities of the order of the electron thermal velocity in a nonmagnetized plasma by one-dimensional electrostatic particle-in-cell code which adopts an ion-to-electron mass ratio of 1600. An initial state is set up where the ion bulk speed is zero while the electrons drift relative to ions, and where electrons are much hotter. We examine in detail four runs where drift velocity is systematically varied from lower than to larger than the electron thermal velocity. In all runs the Langmuir waves with Doppler-shifted frequencies dominate early on when streaming instabilities are too weak to discern. And then intense ion-acoustic waves or Buneman instabilities appear, which tend to be accompanied by localized electron and ion beams. Ion-acoustic modes and Buneman modes co-exist in the system when the initial drift velocity is just over the electron thermal speed. Beam modes are excited when the localized beams with large enough velocities appear. In the developed stage of instabilities, the direction in which density depressions propagate is always opposite to that of the localized ion beams. When the initial drift velocity is close to the electron thermal speed, categorizing the relevant instabilities is not easy, and one needs to examine in detail the wave dispersion diagrams at various stages of the evolution of the system.

An Erdős-Ko-Rado theorem in general linear groups

Let $S_n$ be the symmetric group on $n$ points. Deza and Frankl [M. Deza and P. Frankl, On the maximum number of permutations with given maximal or minimal distance, J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 22 (1977) 352--360] proved that if ${\cal F}$ is an intersecting set in $S_n$ then $|{\cal F}|\leq(n-1)!$. In this paper we consider the $q$-analogue version of this result. Let $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ be the $n$-dimensional row vector space over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and $GL_n(\mathbb{F}_q)$ the general linear group of degree $n$. A set ${\cal F}_q\subseteq GL_n(\mathbb{F}_q)$ is {\it intersecting} if for any $T,S\in{\cal F}_q$ there exists a non-zero vector $α\in \mathbb{F}_q^n$ such that $αT=αS$. Let ${\cal F}_q$ be an intersecting set in $GL_n(\mathbb{F}_q)$. We show that $|{\cal F}_q|\leq q^{(n-1)n/2}\prod_{i=1}^{n-1}(q^i-1)$.

A construction of pooling designs with surprisingly high degree of error correction

It is well-known that many famous pooling designs are constructed from mathematical structures by the "containment matrix" method. In this paper, we propose another method and obtain a family of pooling designs with surprisingly high degree of error correction based on a finite set. Given the numbers of items and pools, the error-tolerant property of our designs is much better than that of Macula's designs when the size of the set is large enough.

Pooling designs with surprisingly high degree of error correction in a finite vector space

Pooling designs are standard experimental tools in many biotechnical applications. It is well-known that all famous pooling designs are constructed from mathematical structures by the "containment matrix" method. In particular, Macula's designs (resp. Ngo and Du's designs) are constructed by the containment relation of subsets (resp. subspaces) in a finite set (resp. vector space). Recently, we generalized Macula's designs and obtained a family of pooling designs with more high degree of error correction by subsets in a finite set. In this paper, as a generalization of Ngo and Du's designs, we study the corresponding problems in a finite vector space and obtain a family of pooling designs with surprisingly high degree of error correction. Our designs and Ngo and Du's designs have the same number of items and pools, respectively, but the error-tolerant property is much better than that of Ngo and Du's designs, which was given by D'yachkov et al. \cite{DF}, when the dimension of the space is large enough.

Metric dimension of some distance-regular graphs

A resolving set of a graph is a set of vertices with the property that the list of distances from any vertex to those in the set uniquely identifies that vertex. In this paper, we construct a resolving set of Johnson graphs, doubled Odd graphs, doubled Grassmann graphs and twisted Grassmann graphs, respectively, and obtain the upper bounds on the metric dimension of these graphs.

Pavideoge: A Metadata Markup Video Structure in Video Search Engine

In this paper, we study the problems of video processing in video search engine. Video has now become a very important kind of data in Internet; while searching for video is still a challenging task due to the inner properties of video: requiring enormous storage space, being independent, expressing information hiddenly. To handle the properties of video more effectively, in this paper, we propose a new video processing method in video search engine. In detail, the core of the new video processing method is creating pavideoge--a new data type, which contains the video advantages and webpage advantages. The pavideoge has four attributes: real link, videorank, text information and playnum. Each of them combines video's properties with webpage's. Video search engine based on the pavideoge can retrieve video more effectively. The experiment results show the encouraging performance of our approach. Based on the pavideoge, our video search engine can retrieve more precise videos in comparsion with previous related work.

PrisCrawler: A Relevance Based Crawler for Automated Data Classification from Bulletin Board

Nowadays people realize that it is difficult to find information simply and quickly on the bulletin boards. In order to solve this problem, people propose the concept of bulletin board search engine. This paper describes the priscrawler system, a subsystem of the bulletin board search engine, which can automatically crawl and add the relevance to the classified attachments of the bulletin board. Priscrawler utilizes Attachrank algorithm to generate the relevance between webpages and attachments and then turns bulletin board into clear classified and associated databases, making the search for attachments greatly simplified. Moreover, it can effectively reduce the complexity of pretreatment subsystem and retrieval subsystem and improve the search precision. We provide experimental results to demonstrate the efficacy of the priscrawler.
